>I wish they target countries like China instead of spineless france.

Because Chinese Life is less worth than "spineless" French? What is that disgusting worldview of yours? You know what a blood-bank is, right?

I read it as meaning China is more likely to track down and prosecute the attackers. I use the term prosecute loosely.

They mean that China will respond in kind, rather than France, who may just wring their hands.
