Steven-

<<A friend of mine, overseas Chinese, suspects that both sides are making hay out of the controversy, and will press for concessions from the US in return for letting it quiet down. He may be right. >>
And he may not be right. I suspect there are less imaginative- albeit less interesting to those of a conspiratorial bent- reasons for "the controversy".

As I recall- I could be wrong, and I'm not going to bother looking it up- you once opined, of the mainland's takeover of Taiwan, that "It will not be violent". I wonder what it might take to shake you- or indeed, whoever said that- out of his congenial view of the intentions of the dictators in Beijing. Would this suffice?
