Retribution. Within a week...China will put out wanted posters on several US military commanders, and jeopardize their travel options in Pacific areas. Maybe they will even put McCain on some wanted list.
The indictment is retribution.
Recall if you will, the Chinese Chief of Staff visited the Pentagon last week. I am certain he refused to give what they wanted and likely told them to go to hell.
The indictment is Obama lashing out in pitiful retribution for the slight.
Word is that they put up wanted posters for John Kerry for unspecified crimes against the people of Southeast Asia.
