CN: General Threatens America With Nuclear Weapons Over Taiwan
A Chinese general threatened that Peking might respond with nuclear weapons if the United States attacked China in a conflict over Taiwan.
The State Department rejected the threat as "highly irresponsible."
The exchange could add to tensions with Washington at a time of U.S. worries about China's military buildup and the proposed takeover of Union Oil of California by the Chinese state-run company CNOOC.
