Comment Re:Why Apologize? (Score 1) 1040
While I don't think the US should be the ones to apologize, there is something to be said about apologizing anyway and resolving the mess. Regardless of your views of the new administration (and I'm a major skeptic), I'd rather they apologize and move on to more important issues.
Secondly, apologizing is not saying "Yes, China, we are at fault!", but rather it's all in the interpretation. If China wishes to imagine we're saying that, fine, but all we really mean is that we're sorry this accident every happened. And aren't we? Yes, it's too bad the Chinese pilot died, regardless of who is at fault.
And if GW really cared about our servicemen/women, he'd say the word and bring them home.
