I have no difficulty believing that. Anti-western terrorists serve their interests. And by dealing with them, the Chinese ensure that they can keep an eye on the OBL's of the world so that when it comes time to kill them, the Chinese don't have to hunt too hard.
Today's reports about the capture of documents about sophisticated weapons probably allows us to infer precisely what kind of support China's providing, too. (They're rumored to have helped Pakistan develop its nukes.)
This could be the beginning of the END.
End of what?
If we find evidence, implicating the Chinese or the North Koreans, we have no choice but to respond. This opens a whole new can of worms and this could be a very serious can of worms. There are basically 2 options:
We respond millitarily which could very well lead to the end of things as we know it. (I don't mean to be a tin-foiler or chicken-little, but based on my research about the Chinese and their aspirations, this would be a very dangerous time for the entire population of the earth.)
Option 2 is that we overlook or try diplomatically to deal with this information, which is exactly what the Chinese would hope and expect. You should read the doctrine laid out by two Chinese generals promoting the concept of assymetrical warfare. I will try to find a link and provide it on this thread in a few minutes. Basically, it is an old Sun Tzu principle, if you can't beat your foe with Calvary, don't use the calvary, use what is at your disposal. Any one who thinks the Chinese is not our enemy is wrong, and will find out within the next 10-20 years. Ill see if I can find the link.
