zonkie,

re: I think the Chinese are doing exactly what our government would do in if the roles were reversed (blame the other country any way possible and try to turn it into a political
advantage.) I believe we would have sent their servicemen back (the ones that didn't want to defect) by now though


Are you forgetting the 70's cold war incident where a Russian spy plane landed in Alaska and we repaired it and refueled it and sent them home without delay. We're not even in a cold war with China and they have acted pretty recklessly and against international norms in this case.

We have on occasion apologized for our actions (i.e. Chinese Embassy). I can't recall any case where the Chinese have ever publicly apologized for anything.
