Uhhmmm....whose surveillance craft came home in UPS boxes?

If you are implying that China showed itself stronger than the U.S. in that whole affair, you are most likely wrong. You can bet that they won't try it a second time, even by accident.

The loss of the technology was truly tragic. It potentially compromised the most sensitive of surveilance capabilities, but it did not prove the Chinese to be superior in any respect except in belligerance, which is a defect, not a strength.

Mostly I was responding to the idiotic
jingoism that passes for nationalism
in these parts.
