  • Was that OK because as GPS calls 1945 as the Get of free jail card date.. you agree ?

When did I say 1945 was "get [out] of free jail card date"? You first claimed that "You are giving out get out of jail free cars for too easily.

I think this is a poor interpretation of my comments, and somehow you have jumped from forced annexations to IP theft. I can't equate the two types of theft. The United Nations created the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) in 1967 and China joined in 1980. So, I would say that China's IP thefts after 1980 should be condemned in a similar, but not equal fashion as forced annexations.

ME: OK, so what is your arbitrary cutoff for forcibly annexing other people? Has that time come yet?

TBS: I have none.. I have said many times.. few things in life are black or white.. (binary) Grey is a good colour...

If you really have no cutoff then you support or condone forced annexations and IP theft up to the present day. I condemn countries after my cutoff, and there is nothing much that can be done before it. Without a cutoff you can't justifiably condemn anyone or you functionally condemn everyone over all time, and do nothing about it. It's all catch as catch can. That would work well for China, and I guess that would be your point. To me, that is a recipe for World War III and the eventual use of nuclear weapons.

On a previous topic:

The A-holes like Ms. Clinton tweeting about HK... Maybe addressing the US rampage in shootings might be more appropriate ?

Why can't she do both? Are you against free speech like the CCP? Is she less informed that anyone on SI? Could she have picked up any information as Secretary of State regarding China and Hong Kong that you or I don't possess? Does she have any more practical experience in international relations than you or anyone else on SI?
