The US bombed China embassy in Belgrade in 1999, and killed their 3 officials.
Still nothing happened. China does not like wars, despite the US propoganda.
Well let's be serious. WHY the hell would we have a "science vessel" in the South China sea?
Because it was a spy vessel.
I'm no fan of China, but it sounds like we lost that one fair and square if you ask me.
Before anyone responds, ask yourself something. Would you be ok with a "Chinese science vessel" cruising around a hundred miles or so off the coast of Florida? Probably not.
There is a new sheriff coming to town and the Chinese better watch out ... believe me the Chinese need US more than we need them repel permanent trade with China and bring our companies home then see who is still standing tall.
Companies would just go to Mexico instead for cheap labor, or some other cheap labor place.
Yeaaah... uh huh. 8 years of stable relations w/ China, China opening up trade & mfg zones ON American soil, increased trade, etc. China picks NOW, 1 month away from Trump coming into office to start acting up, and it's Obama's fault?
Not the guy who's been saying he's going to punish China, crash their economy, label them this and that, using them as the whipping boy on his stump speeches?
Not the guy the Chinese officials and media have specifically called petulant, childish, and someone who needs to learn how to operate on the international scene b/c there could be fallout...
Keep burying your heads in the sand.
If you can take you head out of the sand and answer the question - So it's not the policies of those in charge? It's words?
I don't remember Bush ever getting blamed for any foreign country threatening to do something b/c of Obama. Refresh my memory.
China: Tell Trump to watch his mouth before we do something about it.
*China does something about it*
CD Conservatives: Look what Obama made China do!
You can't make this up
You did make it up. China or America will not war with each other because one leader called another leader a bad name. Is that why Japan attacked Pearl Harbor? Because we called Japan a bad name or was it something to do with policies like the Versailles Treaty and sanctions?
I know, I know, bad example. I shouldn't use Pearl Harbor as an example of war because there were no boots on the ground.
