What is so important about these islands that caused these protests in the first place? |
They think there could be oil on these islands.

Nothing! Diaoyu Islands are as much important as Falkland Islands, the best importance of which I could think of is they're probably inhabited by penguins.
And here again people are discussing anything but what actually matters here. It's nothing like it very complicated.
There're certain ROC interests in the South China Sea which they see as fair simply because they are major force in the region. There's anti-Chinese bloc on the other side, surronding it including Vietnam, Taiwan, Philippines and Japan. It goes without saying whose bitches these countries are, the US bitches :D (well, outside Vietnam maybe, but it strongly graviated to anti-Chinese bloc recently). All these protests about god forsaken Diaoyou Islands for thousands time are merely acts of the play "Who's the toughests kid on the block?".
With that being said, I always laugh when yet another weapons industry lobbyist in Congress or MSM is braging about Chinese threat (hence recent Billy Hertz article in The Washington Times about DF-41, bla-bla-blah Obama is disarming America, making us vulnerable to China, sold his soul to communists and other BS). Yeah, threat :D They're barely able to compete with US bitches bullying them not far from their coastline. Poor Chinese.

But didn't China sell these islands to the Japanese?

No, Japan invaded them until WWII when U.S. controled them and gave them back to Japan.
