You cannot offend China if your company is a China-based manufacturing company. Tim Cook didn't make sure Apple was am America-base manufacturing company and spent a lot of Apple's money on China. Thinking that Tim Cook will not march to Xi Jinping's drum is absurd. His criticisms of American manufacturing can all be solved by Apple investing the same money.

This should be a bigger story. He should be seen as someone who spent American money to build China's supply chain.

[edit: gotta love the Tim Cook apologists]
