No disrespect here, but the news was more than 2 years old. It seems to me that some people just realize it now somehow.

 

[asianamerican]

These are the people that change the world. They are in the background working. China is totally indebted to people like these who help China create a credible deterrent against aggression which allows her to have stability to have progress. Thank all in part to American sino-phobia and racism, many more Chinese and Indian too will go back to develop their own motherland.

After all, Chinese researcher in US university making America great, who in turn used her influence to contain China and making Chinese life harder. White society are cunning in the recruiting lackey and traitors.

 

[Hindustani]

I know this is a pretty old thread. However I wish wherever he is, is peaceful. Rest in peace Mr. Qian Xuesen, and condolences to the family.

You cannot simply consider those who develop science and technology in U.S. are traitors if they are Chinese or Indians.

Otherwise, you may have alienated a great number of scientists and engineers that will have helped China in the long run. Do not be such short sighted.

Even Qian has conducted research and worked in U.S. army for many years.

Of course, I don't mean Chinese or Indian scientist doing research for US are traitors. Many have to do the research to progress and the US have a developed foundation for their research.

I am only suggesting that Chinese and Indian research in US are inevitable contributing to White society, as White American will continue to sow discord and contain any rising power. Most white people in American deeply fear that one day they will no longer dictate to other and fear retribution.

While, your words " White society are cunning in the recruiting lackey and traitors." really confuses me what you try to say there.

Of course, the research done by Chinese scientists in U.S. will contribute to U.S. either militarily or non-militarily. Otherwise, why the heck does U.S. institutions hire you to conduct such research?

As far as retribution, I think deterrence may be a better word. More and more countries will have deterrence mechanism that make themselves being invaded less likely.
