Thanks for linking that lucid piece.

The US/China relationship may be one of those rare ones where increased trade and cultural relations do not ease tensions and, in fact, may exacerbate them. Witness the trade secret thefts and trademark piracy.

I was surprised to learn that the Chinese still see the US as a Paper Tiger in much the same way that Mao did. Isn't the first rule of international relations that any power will use its military force to protect its vital interests? As respects Taiwan, the Chinese calculation may ultimately be that its military protection is unlikely because substantial American vital interests are simply not involved.
