A quick google turned up : http://www.washingtonfreepress.org/24/Globe1.html "To that end, Boeing buys the parts of the wings for its jumbo 747s and for its 737s from the Xian Aircraft Co., the Chinese company that built MIG fighter planes. China has imposed that requirement as a condition of the sale. Eventually, the Chinese factory will produce the tail section for the 737, which now is made at the Boeing plant in Wichita. Chinese engineers have visited Boeing facilities in the United States and Boeing engineers have visited China." "How did the Chinese factory secure the tooling and machinery to build tail sections? Boeing supplied the tooling. When asked whether Boeing furnishes tooling to its subcontractors in the United States, a company representative replied: "Boeing provides tooling for some suppliers, and the some suppliers provide their own tooling, So it's both."" "In instructing China, step by step, on how to build its aircraft, Boeing is essentially setting a competitor up in business. The day may well come when China can supply to the world at least some of the planes that Boeing now does, and do it more cheaply. But like much of American business today - and most specifically those businesses that are publicly owned and susceptible to pressures from Wall Street - the Boeing-China deal was more for short-term gains, at the expense of any long-term commitment in America." Please read the rest of that fascinating article. Sure sounds like technology transfer as a condition of sale to me. > You can always stop Walmart and others from using > China to contract manufacture low value items.

I didn't know that but yes I have a copy of "Rape of Nanking", and it is a brutal story. Very sorry about your father. > Is their equality in this world?

Your email brims with deep anger, which is understandable under the circumstances, but it just shows me that more trouble is coming. Please try to understand me. I am not judging anyone right or wrong. If I see dark clouds in the sky I can say that it will rain. The rain will be good for some (farmers) and bad for some (people caught in traffic or floods). This is not a personal bias or preference, and there is no underlying message. I simply say it will rain when I see dark clouds. Then to take this a step further, once we agree that it will rain, we can then take appropriate action (close the windows and doors, find your umbrella). If we cannot agree that it will rain, how can we take appropriate action? I do not say the US is right. Many times I am ashamed of my country. There was a time when America was great, governed by men of integrity (I believe they originally were tax protesters). The US is sliding down the slippery slope. It grieves me to watch it happen. The horrors of humanity's inhumanity are painful for me. I always wonder about why friendly fire incidents get so much coverage, but "insurgent" deaths get no coverage. Don't we realize that the "insurgents" have family, wives, children, parents, who love them as much as we love ours. The answer, unfortunately, is no we don't. Every "insurgent" death brings with it as much pain and sorrow as every friendly fire death. People say they like GW Bush because he sticks to his guns. If that is the case then they should really love the Iraqiis. Have we learned anything? Sadly, no we haven't. With Best Regards, Peter G.
