If I were Left I would have said: YES, I AM SUPPORTING CHINA OVER LEFT. SO WHAT?
If I have one cent of morality left, why would I side with a country directly responsible for the biggest massacre of the decade in Iraq?
One might argue: China invaded us. True.. But, going by the same logic Japan should never side with the US.
One may also argue: that US is pumping money and making us prosperous. Without getting into debate over prosperity, if prosperity over morality holds ground, why not work for Dawood Ibrahim? He will pay more than US IT companies.
