froggie, ol buddie.. the quote was allegedly made at a brussels media confence, not a pentagon press briefing, theres absolutely no inference of any context the commentary allegedly came from, I cant find a single refrence anywhere else to the comments from another source besides ABC (though i can sure picture rumsfield sayin this) and the ABC you've got linked is the Australian Broadcating Company.

and that may be the longest sentance/paragraph i ever typed.

Chinas best bet is to wait until the american ppl put someone without a spine back into the white house .. I don't think they'll move against Tawain until then .. but that doesn't stop tehm from keeping everything stirred up until then, hope the average american gets tired of it all and the noise hurts the Republicans credibility while the cost of it all hurts the economy....

china is much more patient than the US - they see things in years/decades while we live them in seconds/micro secs ..........

You know what's funny to me?  I read about the incident yesterday at my duty section on JWICS network and the data was classified.  Granted, there was a little more detail but not much. The power of the media...

The Recon "grapevine" says the NK fighter pilots were ham-handed.

Wallowing around the sky when trying to fly wing on the RC, some concern that the dumb bastiges were going to run into the RC like the Chinaman did to the EP-3.

Apparently took 'em forever to get formed up when they joined up to go back to NK too.

Now, either they suck.. or that was disinformation.

In my past experiences with interceptions, it was always easy to tell which countries were getting their practice time in. Swedes were precise and sharp like razors. The Russkies... scared me half the time, thinking about midairs.

Now, a poor country with limited food, fuel stocks and airplane spares... I'm thinking these guys aren't flying all that much and it showed.

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!
