The understanding throughout the Cold War years is that USSR is the big fish, and once you get rid of that other countries will follow. Amazingly, the Chinese were able to halt (I mean kill) any anti-Communist movements that took place in other then-Communist countries. They not only survived, but started gaining foothold in the American political system. That is the key to their survival, and they know it. That is why everytime something goes wrong in our relationship, they go ballistic. We are the reason why the Chinese communists are so strong. When we give them PNTR or military secrets, they become strong in our expense. Bush should have stopped this nonsense, but I am starting to think this is beyond him as well. There are stronger forces at play, where even Bush is only a pawn.
