Eh. Sorry. I guess I can kinda blame it on how history class just kinda middled around after 1949, and on my ingnorance.
Anyway, another person told me about my "wrong" usage of "Goldstein." Perhaps I should have changed the name into Eastasia, or something. My point was that the government often increases the threat of something, especially Asian countries. In my position, I don't see China as that much of a threat (but I am a bit ingnorant of many matters). However, it seems large parts of the government and populace think that China is the country that will lead us to the battle of Armageddon (After all, they are the only ones with enough men to match the biblical figures).
Anyway, sorry for getting those dates wrong.
