Arms for the armless

China under fire on the Western front, The West, 16 April 2005, p.28:

"German Foreign Minister Joschka Fischer said the European Union would not go ahead with plans to lift its arms embargo on China unless it saw concrete steps from Beijing on Taiwan and human rights."

Let me see... If China stops threatening to attack Taiwan, if China stops stamping on its own people, Europe will sell weapons to China. So where will the weapons be used? Why will China then need weapons?

The message is, if China is not going to use these weapons, we will be happy to provide them... Oh yes, I can see the logic in that... not! What a load of two-faced rubbish!
