Chairman Hu,
I think when people talk of the Cold War, they are talking of the balance of power that the Cold War showed. You lived under the Western Powers,Eastern Powers or neither. You have to remember that both the PRC and US governments will do what they feel is needed to further their own policies. My question to you since we are discussing the various shortcomings of our nations regarding past history is if you can point out situations where your government was lacking, or outright wrong. I have no problem saying what faults,mistakes or even bad policies my young nation has made since 1787. I am curious if there are any policies of the PRC that you disagree with. Any historical incidence since 1946 where you feel the PRC was wrong or ill-advised? I know here in America, we are taught to be critical of the government. If a person ALWAYS agrees with something then there is a problem. We have people here who ALWAYS or NEVER vote one way or another. While they have a right to vote anyway they see fit, it takes away from the quest for a better understand of various situations.
As far as the deal with America, I am perfectly willing to discuss history with anyone. As long as whoever that is has an open and fair mind, it would work. If we want to match up bad moves nation to nation that is also fine, people just have to know history, not half of it, a third of it or only the good parts.
