Exactly Claire!

China in this case, is entirely to blame for the friction it has attracted. If it had handled things better, it wouldnt have encouraged the world to turn the heat up.

The problem is, the most dangerous China of all, is a China thats pushed into a corner, it typically responds in rather infantile emotional ways, not in rational, intellectually cohesive ways. the whole country is run by emotion. Although a much milder version compared to what was seen pre 1989.

Does China really want to be cohesive with the rest of the world ?

Doe's China see itself as a member of the international community ?

If the answer is yes, then they need to acknowledge and take on board some of the criticism, and prove it !
