West Point's training is no secret. Why not let them get a look at how we do things? They won't be getting access to any classified materials. When I was in the military, we used to do exchange programs all the time. I personally served on many foreign military bases. Had some great parties. :)
I think it's odd. You have US politcians demonizing China for all the wrong reasons (or at least many of them) and now you're gonna train their military?
crimochina:
exactly my point, they have americans thinking we are on the brink of war (exaggerating on my part). but then this, and it will not be reported in american media outlets
philbravery:
was it the greeks who said keep your freinds close and your enemy even closer? in saying that I think it is about time there was some sort of exchange of ideas so im for it
Well being a former West Point cadet, the entire training is to make Generals. So most graduates make a career in the military and reach positions of great power. West Point runs an exchange program because thoses that we train, will have an understanding and respect for the US Military. So the idea that American could potentially train China's best Gerenals would actually one of the most effective ways to prevent war.
