Only the Japanese might be worse, but they cloak it under the guise of forced courtesy.<br /><br />The problem with Xinjiang and Tibet is that they were never officially part of China proper, but vassal states, and so the local perception is that they're independent.<br /><br />Not a problem for China tho. If push comes to shove, remember China has a huge male surplus it can utilize to secure control over its border provinces for all time. Economy will suffer somewhat, but I'm guessing it doesn't take much to put down the natives, especially the males.<br /><br />Reminds me of Hitler's Lebensraum, 'living space', except one that was forced by circumstances?<br /><br />Stay tuned.The Wobbly Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09301556031735052090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-27123114024651960442009-07-08T02:55:06.995-04:002009-07-08T02:55:06.995-04:00Speaking of comparing people to Nazis, AlGore has ...Speaking of comparing people to Nazis, AlGore has indicated most of us here are climate Nazis, a somewhat new category, but nevertheless serious stuff.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04145155737835511824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-32301615163917271652009-07-08T02:50:49.273-04:002009-07-08T02:50:49.273-04:00Put him in a viewing box in the capital.
