You don’t see the contradiction in your first and second paragraphs here Jane? You say those “dictatorships” are only friends because China gives them RMB, then you say China’s only successful because the USA gave them money — Do you even understand how ridiculous this sounds?

By the way, since we’re on the topic, when did Russia, Pakistan and Thailand become dictaroships?

And can you please explain what you mean by gratitude for America’s wars? The Japanese invaded China, you’re correct, but it was in 1937 that they started the colonisation and oppression of Chinese people outside of what’s now called Dongbei and was then known as the Japanese colony of Manchuko. All this was years before they invaded Pearl Harbor, the incident that bought America into the war. Many millions of Chinese died in the Sino-Japanese war — not in an American war (http://www.alearned.com/japanese/)

Furthermore, which “American War” should China show gratitude for? The Korean War, where the USA bombed and killed millions of Koreans who were being helped by the Chinese, or the Vietnam War where the American’s bombed and killed millions more of China’s allies?

Really Jane, you’re going to need to do better than this — Are you an American by any chance? If you are, I sympathise with you, your education and media have helped you to become what you are — completely ignorant. If you aren’t an American, I do have to wonder what it is that makes you get up in the mornings, read my articles and then try to throw mud at them without a shred of decent research, no experience of the ground you’re stepping on or knowledge of the events you wish to debate me on.

But please keep trying — it’s entertaning
