Soon? No. Eventually? Maybe, if stupid fucking Americans do't stop buying all the foreign shit made in China, Japan, India, etc. and start supporting the American economy and our treasonous politicians and business executives don't stop moving industry overseas for slave labor and to escape labor, environmental and tax laws. Its unbelievable how many dumbass American punks think that America can subsist solely on a service based economy. They tell me that "we don't need factories, we can all work in IT" (computers)! Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha! The other wild card is the hoardes of turd world peoples (non-white) pouring into the USA. It literally makes me sick. Example: The top 10 countries with the most approved applicants to enter the USA (2.7 MM) are - Mexico, Phillipines, Dominican Republic, China, Vietnam, Bangladesh, Haiti, El Salvador and Pakistan. No whities allowed, I guess. I believe that there is an organized effort to destroy the USA, based on the two above factors. I know a lot of you will be glad, but there are a lot of Slavs here and you guys are probably next on the hit list. That's my take on the situation.

That they are importers n are dependent on others. Russia n the muslim world got the rest of teh world by the balls. As for Taiwan, I hope China does something, usa has gone too far, how long should China tolerate this insolence? Obama decided to sell Taiwan lots of weapons...China has to step it up, not just talk, or they ain't getting anywhere soon. I have a LOT of sympathy for China, I feel we have a common enemy against west. Oh, they aren't as weak as they used to be, have u seen? www.youtube.com/watch?v=2H9KZX5zAeM&feature=channel_pageA TRANSFORMED ARMY Wearing green, white and blue ceremonial or camouflage uniforms, more than 3,000 Chinese servicemen and women, goose-stepped past the Tian'anmen Square, drawing applause from spectators. A number of officers and soldiers in the parade are from troops that participated in the War of Resistance against Japanese Invasion in the 1930s and 1940s, and the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea in the 1950s. A total of 52 types of new weapon systems, all Chinese made, including new generation tanks, missiles and warplanes, were displayed. Ninety percent of the weapons were paraded for the first time. Among the most eye-catching weapons paraded were five types of missiles of the Second Artillery Force (SAF), China's core strategic deterrent, including the "trump card" nuclear-capable intercontinental missiles. The gigantic weapons in camouflage colors rolled by on long-bed trucks, triggering cheers from spectators. The SAF's land-based cruise missiles also made their debut at the once-in-a-decade military parade. The conventional cruise missile is able to perform long-range low altitude precision strikes. Also on rare public display were the SAF's three types of conventional missiles. ---------- Also, they aren't far behind Russia to show their new stealth fighter J-XX n their stealth bomber too. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtXpFWNZt_s&feature=relatedAircraft carriers soon too, they are building up a deep sea armada. www.youtube.com/watch?v=3g5I_lIsK9UIt's only a few years down the line, and China will be the world's #1 military super power, as its birthright, to match the size of their great nation. The time of anglo-saxon n western dominance is coming to an end, I for one cannot wait ;D Some say, that tomorrow's battlefield for energy will be Africa n China will use their forces there.

US awakens Chinese dragon over Taiwan arms deal.
Robert Bridge, RT 02 February, 2010, 17:23
Beijing has announced it may punish US aviation companies involved in the multibillion-dollar arms deal, while Taipei remains defiant in the face of criticism from the mainland.
The arms deal approved by US President Barack Obama last week consists of 60 Black Hawk helicopters, 114 Patriot missiles, and sophisticated communication systems supplied by several US aviation companies, including Boeing, Lockheed Martin and Raytheon.
The total package is reportedly worth a cool $6.4 billion.
This is not the first time the US has supplied Taiwan, which China claims as its territory, with weapons. The response from Beijing this time around, however, has been nothing short of outrage.
In addition to announcing that it would suspend military and security contacts with Washington, Beijing threatened to impose sanctions on US firms involved in the deal. Boeing, through its McDonnell Douglas subsidiary, which has agreed to sell Harpoon missiles to Taiwan, stands to lose the most.
As the Chinese economy continues to post enviable economic data amidst the worst global economic implosion since the 1930s, it is experiencing a burst of air travel amongst its increasingly affluent citizens.
“The Chinese market has been amazing last year,” Randy Tinseth, Boeing Vice President, told reporters on the sidelines of the Singapore Airshow. “As… markets struggled last year, about 220 million people in China traveled domestically – that was up about 21% from the year before.” It should be noted that, China is Boeing's biggest international market.
Another 15 million Chinese passengers traveled on international routes in 2009, Tinseth said, citing data projecting that air travel will grow 13% on the mainland this year.
The International Air Transport Association (IATA) said Monday showing that Asia had surpassed North America as the world's largest air travel market with 647 million passengers in 2009. This is business that Boeing does not want to see fall through its fingers.
“This a government-to-government issue… These types of sales are between governments and we cannot control them,” Tinseth added, as quoted by AFP.
“I believe it's too early to speculate on what the impact might be to the industry and to us.” A superpower to be reckoned with?
China, which has long downplayed its global ambitions, cringes at the very mention of it attaining “superpower” status. This attitude conforms to Chinese thinking, which tends to view events from a cyclical perspective (as opposed to the Western linear). In other words, if things are going great now, pretty soon things will turn for the worse, and vice versa. Therefore, it’s better not to trumpet your present successes too loudly.
As analysts continue to post predictions that China will soon surpass the United States as the world’s premier economic powerhouse, the two countries have been busy sparring against each other with soft gloves inside a padded cell.
On January 17, 2007, for example, China aroused global attention when it successfully downed an inactive weather satellite with the help of a “kinetic kill vehicle” that was launched into space via a medium range ballistic missile. Prior to the test, only the United States and the Soviet Union had the technological know-how to destroy a satellite in outer space.
The mission triggered condemnation from the United States, which saw the threat that such experiments posed for its constellation of military satellites – its critical “eye in the sky”.
“Our space assets are the first asset on the scene,” said John Pike, a satellite expert at globalsecurity.org. “They are absolutely central to why we are a superpower – a signature component to America's style of warfare.”
In early January, China announced it had successfully tested an anti-missile defense system, which echoes American efforts to build a similar system in Eastern Europe.
Indeed, China seems to be getting real pleasure from breathing down America’s back at every turn, replicating technological achievements that were at one time the sole domain of American and Russian scientists. The next Chinese surprise, if pulled off, will trample on America’s dearest technological achievement to date: putting a man on the surface of the moon.
“In India and China things are happening quickly,” writes Colin Pillinger in the Guardian website. “These countries are not afraid of making mistakes and learning from them. They've both had recent lunar missions; they're now planning to land on the surface with a robot; and after that will come a manned mission. I believe that the next man or woman on the moon will be Chinese.”
The United States continues to watch in semi-disbelief as this Asian nation of a billion-plus souls continues to charge ahead, even in times of economic crisis.
“China is not waiting to revamp its economy,” President Barack Obama warned in his first State of the Union address. “They are putting more emphasis on math and science. They are rebuilding their infrastructure. They are making serious investments in clean energy because they want those jobs.”
Meanwhile, Taiwan on Tuesday announced it would continue to request “defensive weapons” from the United States
Speaking at a news conference in Taipei, Taiwan's Defence Ministry spokesman Yu Sy-tue not only defended the sale, but also said “there will be many options for future arms sales.”
The package, however, did not include F-16 fighter jets, which Taiwan covets.
The United States is Taiwan’s strongest ally and largest arms supplier, and is bound by bilateral agreements to ensure that the island is able to protect itself from any Chinese threats.

I get the feeling that Obama is a total ZERO concerning foreign affairs.

Don't blame just Obama, Bush was probably worse. Blame mostly the scumbag American businessmen who have sold or given American technology to the Chinks. Every time a US company opens a factory in China, they are soon busy ripping-off the technology behind it and soon after will build their own factories copied from it. Blame also the stupid fucking American public who could care less where their bought goods come from, as long as its cheap. Little do they realize that the profits they make on stupid Americans are going to put them out of work and to fund their imperialist military. Walk into a US Walmart, everything in there is Chinese made, even apple juice and canned mushrooms, yet alone electronics, toys housewares. Yes, America is doomed.

I know all about the Bilderbergs and every recent president attended the secret meetings along with American businessmen and many Europeans. Yes my Slavic European friends, the EU which you aspire to join is led by men who wish to destroy your countries (as well as mine). I am not sure, but I believe there are Russian members also, probably jewish. Does any of you know about this? It seems like this will make a good thread.

China is too nice, they bailed out the yanks, now Obama after he got his loans, is going back to old anti-china policies. China needs to stop being so dependent on export to the us. Let them fail, call back their debt, bury them, trying to be nice to usa doesn't pay off obviously.

Japanese fishermen to be arrested over shooting incident off South Kurils.
Japan's maritime security authorities have issued arrest warrants for the captains of two Japanese fishing vessels involved in a shooting incident with Russian border guards off the disputed South Kuril islands in January, the Kyodo news agency reported.
The incident took place on January 29, when the Japanese fishing vessels entered Russia's territorial waters off Kunashir Island and ignored warning shots from a Russian helicopter. As a result, the border guards had to open direct fire at the vessels.
The fishing boats returned to their port of Rausu with numerous bullet holes on their hulls. Japan issued an official protest against the border guards' actions, claiming they could have resulted in the loss of life and were completely inappropriate.
However, Russia's Foreign Ministry rejected Japan's complaints, calling them "ungrounded and unacceptable."
The news agency said the arrest warrants were issued after Japanese investigators discovered that GPS navigation systems were shut down on both vessels at the time of the incident and that bullet holes on vessels' hulls were painted over, which means the fishermen were trying to hide their location and the incident itself.
The captains were to be arrested on Wednesday on charges of breaking fishing laws.
Tokyo's continued claim over four South Kuril Islands (Iturup, Kunashir, Shikotan, and Habomai) has so far prevented Russia and Japan from signing a formal peace treaty to end World War II hostilities.
The four southern islands of the chain to the northeast of Japan were annexed by the Soviet Union after World War II.

You guys think a stronger China won't have a conflict of interests with Russia (which borders it) if not any other Slavic country in Europe?
I think so.
I don't hate the Chinese, but they are a distant, eastern and alien civilization for us. Don't feel much connection with them.

Ha Ha! China is at your borders, ready to march through your defenseless nations. Ooops, maybe Nato will come to your rescue. Maybe not since they got suckers like bulgaria and poland in between as cannon fodder to take the punishment. Yeah the, the chinks really love you guys, maybe they will take it easy on you. Talking about Slavic nations in third person. Great that you finally reveal your colours for good. Mongrel dog. Go fuck yourself, Yank.
