<a slavish ass-licker of the Communist Chinese government>

All the posts you cite from me are true -- most of the people I have been on contact with in the aftermath of our bombing of the Chinese Embassy were of the opinion that it was an intentional bombing -- and here I am speaking of people with some involvement from a professional point of view. I did not interview anybody in such a way that I would want to identify them, nor did anybody pass me documents that would prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that it was a planned attack on the Embassy. I did not solicit opinions -- but people sometimes share their views anyway. At first I thought the idea of our bombing the Chinese Embassy on purpose was absurd. But as more people shared their views I came to consider the possibility as the most likely explanation. Just as I believe that Israel intentionally bombed a well marked UN observation post in broad daylight and without any dispute over whether or not it was an extremely well marked UN site.
I believe the bombing of the Chinese Embassy was intentional in the same sense as I believe the bombing of the UN post was intentional -- the preponderance of the evidence, logic and opinion I have seen leads me to this conclusion.

My point was and is that the Chinese also seemed to believe it was intentional and they showed considerable restraint under the circumstances. If China bombed us and killed Americans I am very confident that our reaction would be far more severe and that we would leave no stone unturned in pursuit of evidence that it was intentional, if that is in fact what we believed.

For the record, I think you are a lying war mongering sleaze ball that would say anything you can think of to promote your ideological position -- and this is about all the time I care to devote to your endless sleazeball attempts to paint me as anything other than a fine and upstanding person who believes in law and order and opposes reckless military adventures and war crimes. Bye Bye.
