Unskilled military perhaps.  30 minutes is a long time to take.  I
haven't read the article yet, perhaps I will later when I want a good
laugh, but other than the so called disclipine what other evidence
points to a Chinese military job?

I have seen some very organized attacks carried out by people whom you
would not consider "military material" if you know what I mean.
