China barred 3rd Navy visit to Hong Kong (Navy doesn't get it)
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071130/ap_on_go_ca_st_pe/us_china

WASHINGTON - The Chinese rejection of U.S. ship visits into Hong Kong is broader than initially reported, the Pentagon said Friday, revealing for the first time that a third incident had occurred last week.


According to a defense official, a request for the USS Reuben James, a Navy frigate, to make a New Year's holiday stop in Hong Kong was formally denied by the Chinese last Thursday. The denial came the same day the Chinese turned away the USS Kitty Hawk and five ships accompanying it for a Thanksgiving port call.

The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the denial has not been publicly announced, said the Reuben James, based in Pearl Harbor, had made the port visit request in October.

According to the official, shortly after the Kitty Hawk was turned away, the Chinese reversed their decision and said the ship could enter the harbor, but by then the ship was too far out to sea. During that notification, the Chinese also told the Navy that the Reuben James visit was being denied. No reason was given for the refusal.

1. We are entering into a cold war with China..
as usual, we'll be the last to know. Say goodbye to your cheap shiny trinkets everybody. Me thinks this Christmas is the last hurrah for all that.

7. It's about time another country started to stand up to the bully US
I don't see this as being against the United States, as much as it is a protest against the crooked administration. For too long, Der Fuhrer has bullied the rest of the world, trying to coerce everyone into doing his bidding. He's the one who came out and said "you're either with us or against us". His policies have been nothing short of aggressive, and downright menacing to many countries.

I will be SO glad to see this asshole gone.
