Why for all those lovely trinkets and bits of technology that we apparently
can't manufacture over here, because we believe in unions and such, and
therefore would be too expensive for US companies to make and distribute.
No?

Subject: RE: Good Morning! - Chinese incident
That's what I am realizing now, I guess, what "boggles" me really, is why
they have to do all this politically correct, running around the bush, honor
stuff, when there are a lot of other more important issues to take care of,
on both sides of the ocean. I tend to think in such straight direct terms,
that this tennis match seems a bit of overkill.
The Chinese need our money, we need the Chinese....Regret and remorse is
good, why can't they just accept it?
If we can't *apologize* because we shouldn't, which I do believe we were in
the right and not the wrong....but the Chinese won't back off because they
think they are right...what happens? What was said before about if we do
*apologize* just to get everything over with, then the Chinese can use that
against our crewmen, that makes sense, but still leaves it at square one.
Both countries are stubborn and those crewmen are stuck in the middle of a
political TUG-O-WAR. I think that just stinks!
*very sad*

Why should this be mind-boggling? The Chinese want something they clearly
don't deserve: an apology for an event where there is no evidence of
wrong-doing on the part of the U.S. airmen (at least so far). Yes, regret is
different from an apology, and there is nothing wrong with expressing regret
for the incident and the loss of life of the Chinese airman. But an apology?
Not warranted.
And if you think an apology is *all* the Chinese want, think again. There's
more buried under the surface, you're just not seeing it.
