the chinese are known to take a long term view of things. when mao was asked what he thought of the french revolution he said it is too early to tell. thus the chinese opposition to nuke deal is fully understandable give that india is an irresponsible country. the chinese are terribly worried that india will become a moahamdan majority country, and then it will be all over for the world. the chinese are already busy lobbying the u.s. congress to stop this deal that incurious bush started.
