Totally agree with the writer. There is one thing I don't get about Chinese people: it's their ambivalence toward the United States of America. On the one hand this article shows a rather negative attitude toward the US while on the other hand General Liu Yazhou declared that China must either embrace US-style democracy or accept Soviet-style collapse. Which is it? Which of the love/hate dichotomy prevails? Do Chinese love the Yanks or hate them?
NB: General Liu was promoted recently from deputy political commissar of the PLA Air Force to political commissar of the National Defence University. His father was a senior military officer and his father-in-law was Li Xiannian, one of Chinese communism's ''Eight Immortals'' - and a one-time president of China.
