Chinese want oil, so we buy oil from other nation, we do not need to invade anyother nations. The USA invades Iraq, but not North Corea, why?
China is buying oil from a nation which has killing is still happening there. Poeple from all around the world against the Iraq War, but people still buying American products. is that funny

The hypocrisy exhibited by Mr. Spielberg and his supporters vis-a-vis his "boycott" of the Beijing Olympics is breathtaking and bitterly disappointing to the liberal cause. Spielberg, a Jew, says not a word about the flagrant human rights abuses of Israel, but his racism against Asians is in full view with respect to China. I assume thsi same hypocritical racism is behind Mr. Roth's opinion also. The country of China, which actually practices what it preaches with respect to non-intervention in other country's affairs, neither has the right or obligation to fight for a cause that so-called liberal Americans have just discovered as the Flavor of the Month (this flavor has been around for the last 40 years or so, by the way). Nor do those supposedly compassionate Americans dare to focus their moral outrage at the real culprits in this Darfur debacle, i.e, Saudi Arabia, which has long supported the fundamentalists in Khartoum and even bought black Sudanese rebels as slaves, or the US, which tacitly supports Khartoum as a tentative ally in Bush's fictitious war on terror. So the high and mighty Speilberg, who doubtless opposes the criminal war in Iraq, actually wants China to bully its friend Sudan, the way the US has traditonally bullied its way around the world, resulting in fiascoes like Iraq. It is simply preposterous to expect China to jeopardize its friendly relations with Sudan just because American bleeding hearts lack the gumption to force their own country to assert its influence. Of course, they're probably too stupid to realize that it is precisely this kind of self-righteous smug arrogance that gets the USA in such hot water in the first place. Not only China but also other sovereign non-white non-Judeo-Christian nations have every right to feel that American racism and double standards are applied very subjectively and inconsistently. Spielberg should stick to what he knows best, making movies about the fantasty worlds he obviously lives in. As for Mr. Roth, he evidently went to the same school of American Hypocrisy that Speilberg graduated from.
