TJ, is that wise: <It is simply that simpletons on both continents do not see the apparent, realize not the obvious, and instead live in a fantasy world believing a winner can be in any conflict.

Calling these simpletons morons would be too generous, and too much a waste of time

To call Hu Jintao and co moronic simpletons for planning an attack on Taiwan, thinking that they can thereby be winners after the conflict, is not considered good form.

China's boss-mans do not take kindly to such commentary. Yiwu the Mad will get REALLY mad and Bubba the Babbling will go overboard.

However, I agree with you. One would think that they are old enough to have learned enough to know that "those who fail to learn the lessons of the horrors of militarism are doomed to repeat this cliche". But no, a new century and a new feather duster manoeuvre. Even the world's mightist military is having an annoying level of difficulty in suppressing a minor insurrection in a minor country in the midst of desert. That should be a lesson of history for those wishing to start a war in less favourable circumstances.

Iraqis are buying Globalstar CDMA services, so there is hope for them. Taiwan and China and Japan and the Koreas should focus on buying CDMA too. That's much more fun than going to hospital or morgue with missing body parts.
