>> Our plane made a sudden manuever which was not expected by the Chinese pilot- even though he might not have been visible. The plane knew it was under intercept. The Greeneville made a sudden manuever and hit a ship it did not see. Same difference in my mind. To my mind the only similarity between the two occurrences is that they involved collisions of motorized craft from two nations. But what really floors me is your willingness to accept diplomatic rhetoric as fact so readily. Initially the Chinese alleged our plane was intercepted within their air space. Now that claim has been modified to indignation that we were near their air space. Perhaps other parts of the story will change in coming days. I'd suggest you keep an open mind.. Why rush to condemn the USA before all the details are confirmed? uf
