Well- I would hate to call them clueless, or accuse anyone of being stunningly ignorant. So I won't. It just doesn't seem the right thing to do to me. Americans of all kinds will have all kinds of approaches- it just seems to me that escalating this into a shooting or bombing war would be a terrible mistake.

"Imagine this happened off OUR coast and that we had a downed F-16 pilot lost, then we forced the plane to land at Moffet NAS. How fast would we return it?

We would return the crew whether or not we returned the plane quickly.

I am not advocating that we attack China, but they ram one of our planes over international waters, lock up our crew and then they demand that we apologize??
