Space Commander Travis Posted November 23, 2007 #4 Share Posted November 23, 2007 (edited) I also read, here... USS Ktty Hawk/China affair that they then reversed the deciiaon, but by then it was too late to turn back. Some political game there, I suspect.

stevewinn Posted November 23, 2007 #6 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Its might have something to do with this, China demands US stop Taiwanese Patriot 2 upgrade China has again called on the United States to cancel immediately plans to sell military equipment to Taiwan. The US Defense Security Co-operation Agency notified Congress late last week of a possible sale to Taiwan of Patriot 2 upgrade systems and associated equipment worth up to USD939 million. Speaking through China's state-run media on 13 November, Foreign Ministry Spokesman Liu Jianchao said that China "firmly opposes" the potential deal, adding that Beijing had already communicated its "strong objection" to Washington. Liu was quoted as saying that the sale proposal had "rudely interfered in China's internal affairs, endangered Chinese national security and peaceful unification, and disturbed the improvement and development of China-US relations".

nickoli Posted November 23, 2007 #8 Share Posted November 23, 2007 China is imo a definant enemy of the USA.http://washingtontimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20071122/NATION/111220068/1001 This is just one of many facets of what I feel is an irreversable up-coming global conflict. The winds of ww3 are blowing strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadgerOne Posted November 23, 2007 #9 Share Posted November 23, 2007 I think you will see it kick off in the Balkans first. Tensions are mounting there. This story does indeed seem to be a political game. The school playground has a lot to answer for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stixxman Posted November 23, 2007 #11 Share Posted November 23, 2007 This does seem to be a direct attempt by the little midgets to be d****. I'll hold off on thinking its a harbinger of WW3 till I see some other things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreyWeather Posted November 23, 2007 #12 Share Posted November 23, 2007 (edited) Who cares... It's Chinese territory, they can do what they want. Not everybody can put up with America as well as other countries... They also had a political reason, America would have done the exact same thing if roles reversed. truthfully; you wanna save the US dollar and superpower status?...then kick their commie butts...erase all chinese debt and start over without their poison trinkets... Gee, yeah. Go to war with the country that allows America to thrive... They own your economy, without them you'll all be in so much debt (more than you are now) you'll have civil wars, riots, and become a 2nd world country - maybe even 3rd world. With attitudes like yours, I'd love to see China change it's trading-currency to the Euro. After all, the dollar is will be as useful as the Zimbabwe Dollar in a few years I don't see how different this is from Australia turning away a refugee ship ect. Their territory, their rules, they can accept and reject any aircraft or ship they please. Edited November 23, 2007 by Chokmah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legatus Legionis Posted November 23, 2007 #17 Share Posted November 23, 2007 It's really hard to comment here since 80% or probably more are westerners here. I'll just go with the flow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borat Posted November 23, 2007 #18 Share Posted November 23, 2007 (edited) Doubt much will happen over this, it isn't the debt to the chinese that is the main concern, rather their willingness to take on even more. But there will be some sabre rattling from the US no doubt in some form, just to try and get a clearer picture of china's wider intentions, their opacity is somewhat disconcerting to the US. As for the storm, that is not what I heard originally. It was just a place they always stopped off at on that particular tour. It would have been the Kitty hawk's last visit there too, it'll be decomissioned soon and they intended to have a bit of a party there. They were heading there anyway as part of the circuit , not 'can we make port in hong kong because of a storm '.

Legatus Legionis Posted November 23, 2007 #23 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Aren't there any rules about racist comments here? *mildly surprised at the level of xenophobia displayed* ok.. firstly I just said westerners. I never said any particular race and discriminated them or whatsoever. What I meant on " Go with the flow " was go with the discussion your already in.

That's why I said what I said. All of us 'westerners' don't have that attitude. It's really hard to comment here since 80% or probably more are westerners here. I'll just go with the flow. We are all humans, judge me because of where I live? Cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
