my innermost sanctum

kiddie spat

referencing the current spat between the all-mighty and all-conquering peopre's lepubrik of China and the all-wotever wee isle, today's edition of the daily rag came up with this piece of wotsit:

reet. given that the rag is the mouthpiece of the Legitimate Gangster's, surely the so-called erroneous juxtaposition - whatever that means - was purposely done so to gauge wee islanders' reactions.

or more specifically, to test how patriotic wee islanders are. like if they would display overtly their unquestionning loyalty and ultimate support towards the heir-apparent prime minister. given that:
1. the wee island national day is around the corner
2. his ascension to the throne comes right after the national day
3. huge numbers of wee islanders are walking out of the islet still - who, to the Gangsters' wee mind are a bunch of *traitors* - "duh?" i'd hear you say

what with the threats that China has been firing at the wee isle's direction, that run from the gamut of further investments to postponing/cancelling some ministers' visits here; the silence from wee island investors in china is rather deafening.

i'd rather hear concrete assertive tit-for-tat's from wee islander's than just mere whingeing's posted to the rag's forum page. not that their rants' would not be lost in translation.

i have to emphasise that my not giving any opinion on China's stand in this kiddie quarrel doesn't mean i totally agree with their whining's. especially the bit about the wee isle not taking into consideration the feelings of the 1.3 billion chinks. for the no-brainer fact that the heir-apparent is of chinese descent, they'd expect him to know better. ie: assuming a collective mindset.

with this, i conclude my erm, stand on this daft exchange of petty disagreements between a couple of prats.
