Chinese Raise Heat in South China Sea

The Chinese are putting anti-ship missiles and jammers in the middle of the South China Sea, but in an article today the Wall Street Journal says they are aiming military grade lasers at US aircraft around  Djibouti, where both countries have military outposts.  A couple of aircrews have been injured by having these lasers in their faces.

These are military lasers and not the pocket kind that kids try to paint on airplanes that land at commercial facilities.  The US is going to have to target these pretty soon to stop that kind of dangerous behavior.  I’m not exactly sure how it is the Chinese think this kind of thing is OK and there will be no repercussions.
