1. Political implications if bush &/or Israel launches an attack

on Iran's nuclear facilities.

First -- China holds a lot of the US bonds (US debt).

Second -- there is no way a sane person would pull China into a fight with Iran.

Third -- who is going to buy US bonds if China gets pissed at the US for attacking Iran?

2. Looks Like

That to me.
They have also just bought a bunch of Euro bonds. Looks like a squeeze to me. They seem to be the banker that everyone has to go to now.
Also I was surprised at the site. They are starting to present their way of viewing things.

3. China is consolidating economic

power to compete with the European Union. What we don't realize is that they are skillfully increasing their influence over this country.

Ahhhh - what we won't give up for cheap crap.

4. This is what the bush threat to Iran is all about

<Iran's oil Minister Bijan Zanganeh, who is on a two-day visit to Beijing pursuing closer ties, said Iran is China's biggest oil supplier and wants to be its long-term business partner.>

6. Iran can breath a sigh of relief as the bushgang won't attack them now

wonder if the bushgang part of the Chinese gov. is fighting with the anti bushgang part?

8. Not so fast...Iraq had a $40 billion deal with Russia which did nothing...

...to save them from the plans of the NeoCons.

7. If I were China, I would also be working on a military trade deal....

...with Iran. They should be thinking about sending arms and advisors as soon as possible.

[democracy eh]

9. ahh a new age of competing empires

feels like the the mid 1700's all over again

10. Looks like the chimp* still wants to play checkers

in a chess game. Someone ought to inform these simpletons, that there are consequences to actions and it takes more than bluff and bluster to live in the world.
Iran is moving their king into the fort, your king is in jeopardy chimpy*.

11. So....an attack on Iran would be like an attack on China?

Maybe The Chimp can start a war that Kerry can't handle?
I'm betting that the republicans, who think America stands for their business platform instead of Democracy, will create an even more complete wreck that Kerry won't be able to do a fucking thing with.

Sorry about that sentence structure. I'm somewhat pissed off this morning. Even a win on Tuesday will only be a start. Just like calling the tow truck after an accident.
