Bill, I don't think the issue whether the Chinese government is the
good guys or bad guys (which would be a superficial and devisive
debate), but a possible recourse to conspiracy theory explanation that
is profoundly un-Marxist. If we are serious, we can't wallow in
"shot-in-the-dark" explanations, particularly if voiced so publically
as this was and targeting a regime that is clearly not a principal
enemy in today's world.
