I'm sure the Japanese people were pretty outraged a couple of years ago when there were anti-Japanese riots in China that somehow (gosh, I wonder how?) were tolerated by the usually strict government. I'm also pretty sure that the people of Tibet are outraged that the communist government in Beijing doesn't respect human rights or cultural heritage. China has repeatedly criticized the US for it's bad policy and that's fine, that's how the game works. The government is in desperate need to figure out the whole global politics game because at the moment, they are failing miserably and only infuriating the rest of the world.
Is the communist government really that naive to think they will find sympathy for cracking heads and killing people? Do they know so little about their existing perception in western countries where manufacturing jobs have disappeared and moved to China? Really? Seriously? Someone please educate that government because real or not, people already perceived China to be a threat to their jobs and future, even before the recession. Instead of looking like an important world player, they just look silly and it's getting worse by the day. Save the outrage for people who care because that stops at the border.
