Since the time of President Harry S. Truman, the US has tried to prevent the emergence of an uncontrolled center of power in Eurasia, says Dmitry Suslov from the Moscow-based Council on Foreign and Defence Policy.

“After the Obama-Medvedev summit it has become clear that the US does not want to make any concessions to Russia on the post-Soviet space, neither in Georgia nor Ukraine. But still the message to these countries changed. Last year it was support of the anti-Russian policies. This year the Obama administration does not want Ukraine or Georgia to prevent the process of resetting Russia-US relations.”

America is busy, busy, busy, ..... Sometimes America blocks China not to be a big economic country, sometimes blocks Russia not to connect Europe and Asia.But America must be fail to block these two countries so that America will be a third grade country whose country would not contact with after 20 years from now on. It is true. These days America's busy doing will be a great handicap of future America's economy. America over spent their budget! More over he will spent more and more to protect his pride, but this kind of things will destroy America as fast as possible. Don't do over react! Just react and be pleased for your future step by step!

Wildey is correct. USA is on the Empire road and is not slowing down despite some serious "potholes" and "sinkholes" on that empire-road. The American people are becoming jobless and homeless (or moving in with relatives & friends) by the millions!! Americans manufacture little and their exports are a very small part of the economy. America is a debt ridden nation and the debt hole is growing by the second! The US Govt. panders to illegal aliens and alienates their own legal citizens. The only growing jobs are those in the military. Help wanted! US Army wants you... 65,000 of you and the US Marines need 22,000. Apply now! Cannon fodder needed for US wars, to grow the Empire!!

Since 1898 America has been on the road to Empire. It's been buying allegiance all over the world but now it's broke, bankrupt. Neither Russia or China sold there souls to America so that makes them an adversary. Saddam didn't listen and paid a big price. The Iranians are playing with fire. The man running the show is a would be Emperor. Like in the days of Communism where there was a comintern, states not in must be brought in.
