How would pulling out of China prevent any future attacks? Anyone on the Internet can be attacked, right? Find a good time to exit China and become a good guy again at the same time? Is that why google tries to make the attack look like a political attack instead of a usual attack, even though the hacker(s) targeted both google source code and email accounts?
"The cyberattacks last week came from Taiwanese Internet addresses, according to James Mulvenon, an expert on Chinese cyberwarfare capabilities. Mr. Mulvenon said the stolen documents were transmitted electronically to a server controlled by Rackspace, based in San Antonio."
As far as I know, Taiwan is China's rival, therefore this does not implicate China more than any other country.
