OMG war with China! :tinfoilhat: Woohoo!

Funny though, this article on the WSJ yesterday:

[Cyber attacks now considered acts of war.](http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702304563104576355623135782718.html?mod=WSJ_Tech_LEFTTopNews)

Then today, this article on the WSJ:

[Google discloses China hacked accounts of senior US officials.](http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702303657404576359770243517568.html?mod=rss_whats_news_us_business&utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+wsj%2Fxml%2Frss%2F3_7014+%28WSJ.com%3A+US+Business%29&utm_content=Google+Feedfetcher)

Looks like typical left wing war mongering to me! Git yer guns! We’re invading the orient!

China is denying it!

Nope. We’re in 50% more middle eastern wars with Obama in office than we were with Bush in office.

IB4 this is moved to Politisuck and no one posts anymore.

And I really doubt we’d bomb someone in retaliation. This seems more like a way of saying, “knock off the shit China” than anything.

No we’re not going to bomb china. We’ve got the bombs, but they’ve got our dollars that pay for our bombs. The timing was funny though. No way it’s a coincidence.
