It would be easier with an Axe

Okay, so we have have added t the role of china;s policemen the roles of stern critique, worried friend and frighten bunny. We therefore wheel in Chines politicins and allow them o look slimy and disengenious on airtime (and hardly bother hiding our distain). while politicians indulge in attacking china (and yet of course still tl to it): moreover these attacks are of the distinctly anxious kind. we thunder out abuse, and then worry about the consequences - thereby confirming our role as frightened (if very very very slightly defiant bunny) and China's role as game keeper. And yet as any worried friend we d not really mean to cary any of this home. No sanctions or Olympic boycott (when china suggests we are doing this we get jumpy), and so no teeth.We will still allow the ludicorus spectacle of the Olympic Dream t continue and China to preen itself as a world power.
Well it is I suppose nice to now who is boss.
