Re: I find it interesting that there is an element of this in Chinese living in the US, which I don't understand at all, especially from people with roots in mainland China. Why leave China in the first place, and than support the China's destructive foreign policy?

Joe,

Let me give a shot at this...

I just graduated college with a lot of chinese students. From my point of view, anyone supports thier homeland.

Look at Alian Gonzaga's father blah blah blah...

Anyways, I think people as a whole support thier homeland, regardless of what it is and what it supports. You are not capable of chosing your homeland (if I am remembering right, you are from a comunist country also).

So, I believe people from China are hoping it will change for the better. Am I right?

I am more worried about an outright invasion...

I think this possibility is derided in Taiwan as the "million-man swim". In other words, China doesn't have the wherewithal to pull it off (which is not to say that they couldn't perpetrate terroristic missile attacks).
