香港李友會：核武攻美論暴露中國鷹派猙獰面目
【香港李登輝之友會2005年7月15日新聞稿】英國媒體報導，中國人民解放軍朱成虎少將恐嚇，若美國因台灣問題攻擊中國，中國將動用核武。香港李登輝之友會指出，這是非常嚴重的狂言與妄想，暴露中國鷹派猙獰面孔，「對人類做這種恐嚇應該被譴責，講這種狂言的人也應該道歉」。
香港李登輝之友會強調，國際主流社會的規範很清楚，在日本廣島、長崎的兩顆原子彈之後，文明的社會希望核武浩劫不再重現，「今天如果還有人說要動用核武，是公然向文明社會挑釁、挑戰」。
香港李登輝之友會表示，沒有人希望再看到核武帶來的人類浩劫，今天居然有人說考慮動用核武，「這樣的恐嚇應該被譴責，講這種話的罪犯也應該被繩之於法」。
Chinese General Threatens U.S. Over Taiwan
BEIJING - A Chinese general said Beijing might respond with nuclear weapons if the United States attacked China in a conflict over Taiwan, news reports said Friday.
The comments could add to tensions with Washington at a time of U.S. worries about China's military buildup and the proposed takeover of the oil company Unocal Corp. by a Chinese state-run company.
"If the Americans draw their missiles and position-guided ammunition into the target zone on China's territory, I think we will have to respond with nuclear weapons," Maj. Gen. Zhu Chenghu, a dean at China's National Defense University, told visiting Hong Kong-based reporters. His remarks were reported by The Asian Wall Street Journal and The Financial Times.
Zhu stressed that he was expressing a personal view, not official policy, and was confident that China and the United States would not go to war, the reports said.
Zhu was responding to a question about how China might react to U.S. involvement in a conflict with Taiwan, the Journal said. The United States is Taiwan's biggest arms supplier and could be drawn into fighting to help defend the island.
"If the Americans are determined to interfere ... we will be determined to respond, and we Chinese will prepare ourselves for the destruction of all cities east of Xi'an," a major city in central China, Zhu said.
"Of course the Americans will have to be prepared that hundreds of, or two hundreds of, (or) even more cities will be destroyed by the Chinese," he said.
The general said his comments were "my assessment, not the policy of the government," the Journal said.
