AMERICAN APOLOGY TO THE CHINESE
Dear China:
We're sorry that you don't train your fighter pilots better. As a token of
our apology, here's a copy of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2000. We're sorry
that you're
front-line fighter planes can't outmaneuver a 35 year old prop-driven
airliner. Perhaps you'd like to consider purchasing some surplus 1950's era
Lockheed Starfighters from Taiwan. (We just replaced all theirs with shiny
new F-16's) We're sorry that you believe your territorial waters
extend all the way to Australia. For future reference, here's an American 6th
grade geography textbook. (Please
take note of the Copyright information printed inside the cover.)
We're sorry that you can't seem to see your part of this incident. We know
that it may seem easier to blame others than to take responsibility. Consider
this fact while we build several new Aegis destroyers for our friends in the
Republic of China (Taiwan).

We're especially sorry for treating you with such respect for the last 20
years. We will definitely rethink this policy and probably go back to
treating you like a common, untrustworthy street gang very soon.

We're very sorry for ever granting you Most-Favored-Nation trading status and
supporting your entrance into the World Trade Organization. This will be
rectified at the soonest possible opportunity.

Sincerely, The United States of America
