Brian,
Yes Chinese leadership is xenophobic but dont minimize chinese nationalism. Nationalism is most dangerous in a "young" country. History of facism proves that point. Nationalism causes people to overlook issues of freedom and economics. So you have to be tough but are limited in toughness by their geographic location and their military power. If they were Libya we could send in the marines. Here we cant. Mike

I don't know about you but I am hoping we bomb the heck out of China. Then we would have something to apologize for.

If we miss and hit Taiwan, well, the obvious importance to amat would make this an on topic comment. So here is hoping.
