("Finally, lose the old military mind-set. Japan and Taiwan have tethered their futures to China, which makes the presence of the U.S. 7th Fleet as anachronistic as U.S. troops in Germany were after the Berlin Wall fell. Obama and Hu should agree that Japan can take care of itself and that Taiwan, far from the flashpoint it was during the Cold War, is becoming more like Hong Kong -- autonomous, different, more open, but tied to Beijing.")

My comment: This is an op-ed. Mr. Karabell is the author of a new book Superfusion, which supposes that US and China are co-equal, a concept that frightens many a American.

(reflecing on Ms. Nien Cheng).

My comment: Obviously along the way, Ms. Cheng changed the spelling of her last name from Zheng to Cheng (the way Taiwanese Romanize the same Chinese character 鄭). (鄭念本名姚念諼, married 鄭康琪，隨夫姓易名為鄭念.) Her daughter's name is Meiping 鄭梅平.
