Re: Taiwan - I admit I don't look behind the rhetoric, but trust Jay Chen without bothering to verify that China/Taiwan is in the process of resolving itself as Taiwanese industrialists invest in China. Not sure how that will play out in terms of human rights in Taiwan. Human rights in Hong Kong are, after all, at the whim of Beijing. But, we are told, by people living in China, and why would they lie, that they have no reason to worry about human rights. As you say, CDMA will solve every problem.

All things are indeed to some extent interrelated, but I doubt that Zbig B. supposedly helping provoke an insurrection in Afghanistan - which, supposedly, induced the trigger-happy Soviet imperialists to attack that country - could be made into anything MORE than a "passing correlation" with "a couple of missing buildings in New York". I am not an admirer of Professor B., but IMHO even if President C. would have never allowed him to set foot in the Oval Office, the global resurgence of militant Islamic Fundamentalism would have found a way to see the light of day...
