F'ck the Chinese. I don't care if people call it xenophobic.
They're environment-trashing, human-rights-violating,
child-abandoning, dissident-imprisoning communists who sell weapons
to our enemies and block their population from accessing the truth
about the world and their government.
Sound like ideal allies and trading partners then - certainly we have
or have had plenty of other allies guilty of all the above.

Xenophobic? What are the chances of the Dalai Lama dropping in to
watch the Olympics without disappearing?
It's not phobic to say that China is our ideological enemy. But I
-could- be phobic, because anybody who has nuclear weapons pointed
at my home or tries to steal our military technology is my enemy.
Thank you for demonstrating my point.
You have no point. Gatt is 100% correct. Placating the Chinese with
trade won't last. Eventually, they will exercise their military. I
am expecting them to invade Siberia in an effort to expand their
territory and gain access to more natural resources. How do you say
"Liebensraum" in Chinese?


Well, you say it as Lebensraum in German, for starters.

I'm guessing he had an old B-52s tune playing in his head...
