TJ, Japan thought it was a good idea to take over Taiwan. They thought a Greater East Asis Co-Prosperity Sphere was an excellent idea.
China now thinks it an excellent idea that they show those silly Japanese how to do such things.
Hubris, arrogance and overweening self-importance are popular human conceits when things have been going well for a while.
Japan ended with a completely renovated Hiroshima.
A fully rebuilt city in China would be a great modernizing effort too.
When push comes to shove, major paradigm shift happens.
Taiwan would be an excellent UN member. Hu Jintao should occupy his mind with something more constructive than going along traditional routes to demise.
<Earlier this month, President Hu Jintao warned that Beijing would stop at nothing to prevent Taiwan moving towards independence. He was responding to Taiwanese President Chen Shui-bian's bid to seek a UN seat for the island, a move widely seen as a step towards Taiwan becoming a fully independent nation. >
Stop at nothing? Well, that's a bit hysterical, but probably the translator got it wrong.
Here's an idea, he could get excited about 450MHz OFDM cybercerfing. He will like it a lot more than the current foolish TD-SCDMA and War With Taiwan [and maybe a lot more besides].
He can continue the trend, aka accident which is 800 years long, or he can join the teleological process to Nirvana.
Make that call TJ.
You will regret the blunder. What seems an excellent situation now, can turn to paradigm shift happening.
The world is in your hands. AND you get two free cybercerfers.
You can have war, economic collapse, chaos, pain, suffering and regret, or you can have peace, light, harmony, happiness, health, prosperity, longevity, fun and love.
