#2 Send in the French scuba team. After all, they haven't had anything to do since they blew up the Rainbow Warrior. This mission is probably just about as dangerous.

#3 Isn't about time that the international community connected up the dots with respect to China's persistent destabilization of global security? Whether it be proliferating missile technology to Iran so that they can threaten Europe, financing North Korea's nuclear ambitions so as to menace America, or merely hollowing out every other country's industrial infrastructure via intellectual property theft, pirating and patent violations, China is the wide-angle terrorist to Islamism's more narrowly scoped agenda.

The world will only be safe once all other nations have rocked China back on its monetary heels and forced it to assume a more realistic foreign trade model than blatant economic rape.

You're assuming the "international community" isn't in on the game.

#6 You're assuming the "international community" isn't in on the game.

Attempting to thwart America's well-deserved superpower status by facilitating China's expansionism is like releasing a rabid wolf to rid an occupied nursery school of mice.

Talk about a cure being far worse than the disease. This is yet another case where survivors would envy the dead.

#7 I wonder what would have happened if the Japanese had maneuvered a sub into 'China's territorial waters'? I'll tell ya...they'd be gulping seawater at the bottom or taken to island like the American EP-3 surveillance plane was; and disassembled!

We're all going to be eating rice and using chop sticks by 2010 if China's hegemony isn't checked.

#8 The Chinese appear to have done much better than the Soviets on that whole selling them the rope to hang us with thing. A good part of our business and foreign policy elite are as in on the game as anyone.
