Seems you need a history and or a geography lesson.  The spy plane,
and that is exactly what it was, was not shot down.  It was involved
in a collision caused by an incompetent Chinese fighter pilot, and it
happened over international airspace, a fact not disputed even by the
Chinese themselves.  It was not "over China".  And equating this
incident with G.W.B personally shows a complete lack of understanding
of the American system at all. These flights have gone on for
decades, under every single American administration, left or right.

TF> You scare me.

You scare me too if you think that anything other than thoroughly
traumatizing both the perpetrators and the societies that shelter
them will stop this.  The cost needs to demonstrably outweigh the
benefit.  Only then will the act not be undertaken.  Anything less
than a comprehensive and forceful response will simply encourage
further atrocities.

Best,
