As to all the "China bad" talk, I find Jeffrey Sachs view interesting.  He points out China's borders have been almost enitrely the same for 2200 years, it never attacked Japan (Mongols did 700 years ago, Japan attacked them twice), it never established colonies around the world, it hasn't been in a war for 40 years (1 month against Vietnam), ...  and this is the country people think is beligerant and expansionist?
