Sending an Oblique Message to China?

Four nose cone fuses for intercontinental ballistic missiles were mistakenly shipped to Taiwan supposedly in the Fall of 2006. A mistake that wasn’t found until just very recently so the officials say.
Okay…I believe it. And it’s obviously a complete and utter coincidence that it happened right in the middle of China having such a problem with all those horrible, armed and violent Tibetan monks that were marching towards Beijing.
Of course we wouldn’t do anything like that on purpose and then lie about it later by calling it an overlooked mistake now would we?
No…of course we wouldn’t.
I know America would never do a thing like that. Surely, just so a non American can get it right, that would be unAmerican?
Sometimes the best warning is a subtle one. Even if it’s obvious.
