So do these "international territories" loom large as potential theaters of war between regional powers (U.S., China, Russia)? And how does that fit in with Bannon's alleged "clash of civilizations"? (Time to re-read Huntington's book, I guess.)
No, like I said, "international territories" are not an oxymoron, but they're not what he was (presumably, unless he's worried about China invading the UN building or something) talking about.
