You’re the second person to state that the Chinese don’t hate us. It wasn’t my intention to infer otherwise. I didn’t think that they did. If you’ll look at my comments, the inference was that they may think we did based on perceptions their government may have handed down. If that’s not the case, I’m glad to hear it.

My parents have traveled to China, and were treated with a great deal of respect there. I don’t travel there, and I don’t know what the perception is throughout the nation. That’s all I am addressing.

I appreciate your comments about the historical impact on China of the U.S. involvement in WWII. That was interesting. I haven’t studied what the U.S. did in China. I’m sure it would be interesting.

You take care.

Most Chinese know nothing about it. Those who do primarily see Uncle Sam as pitting one barbarian (the Chinese) against another (the Japanese). It ain't pretty, but there it is. At the same time, there is a great deal of hatred of Uncle Sam for getting involved in what they call the Chaoxian (Korean) War in the 1950's.
