If they are really ticked, besides burning the dollar, on Monday they will sell US dollars, US Bonds and declare they are going to buy gold. I'll bet that would cause a dip in the DOW and let the IMF and the world's current #1 bully know that two can play. Since the White House has already made sure the Chinese have the weapon and missile tech. they need, they can now begin flexing their biceps. Shortly we will be reading a headline like: CHINESE SAY "OOPS" AND APOLOGIZE FOR BOMBING HONOLULU BYLINE: HILO, HAWAII - The Chinese ambassador to the U.S. today apologized to the citizens of Hawaii and the U.S. for accidentally blowing up the most populated island in the Hawaiian Island chain. Suffering from an "intelligence failure" and using out-dated intelligence data which had indicated that the island of Kahoolawe (only a few hundred miles from Hawaii's most heavily populated island of Oahu) had been used as a bombing target by the US military, the Chinese today launched a test missile with a nuclear warhead that destroyed Honolulu and it's crucial military installations. Inside sources close to the Chinese ambassador said that the Chinese defense department hadn't quite worked the kinks out of the missile guidance technology they had acquired from the Loral Corporation by their campaign contributions to the Crinton (sic) administration. Fortunately no retaliatory missiles had been launched by the U.S. back at China because in 1998 Mr. W. J. Crinton (sic)had made the public statement that the U.S. would absorb a first strike if the nuclear arms were directed towards either Hawaii or Alaska. (Yes, folks a true public statement)...... I wonder if Papaya King's papaya's would be glowing then.
