I know that one should always keep in mind the axiom that whatever W. thinks, think the opposite. However I must say that I am on his side, and not the side of Chirac and Schroeder with respect to lifting the arms embargo to China. Why on Earth should defence companies get even richer selling weapons to China? Even though 95% of the clothes you wear are made in China (if you shop at the same cheap stores I do) it is still a horrible, repressive government. Am I missing an angle here? Would other loony members of the fringe left explain to me why I should be against Bush’s refusal to lift the ban?
