Why should we help China if they do not help us? It's so simple.

STEVEN, why anyone should help you after you attacked two sovereign nations under the false preposition? And steel trying to do the same with Iran!

We are being fair here. The Chinese Government holds billions worth of US Government Treasury Bonds. Just imagine if the chinese decided to dump these bonds. So please don't say the Chinese is not helping the US. Why is it that it is a threat to the world if Iran possess nuclear weapons but American's nuclear weapons are no threats to the world? Can you explain this , Steven?

Hey EML, if we dont go and take down the bad guys in other places in the world who do you think will ever step up to do this job, some people just need to stop talking when they dont have the power to do it.

@EML: You are so wrong! Don't you see, it's so simple! It's because: they are the "best" of the "best", and that gives them the right to do whatever they want in the name of "preserving our interests and our way of life" (e.g. making decisions unilaterally, skipping the UN... and so on). Also, significant role in this "decisive decision making for the better world" behavior, makes the fact that their politicians have enough military power and no morale what so ever, to do whatever big money corporations want of them (make note that I am not addressing this to majority of US population, witch works honestly and expect their country to behave morally responsible, to actually be democracy) ... Result is obvious, a little Hollywood style propaganda to start the wars, and then US militry occupation to control the "intersts" in that region -> expecting the big profit ($$$) from the occupied country resources. The blood of the "native" population is of no interest to them, since they blame the worsening of the situation on someone else... making the interlude to more military spending and more wars ($). To make it short: lack of true democracy has given the birth to hypocrisy and plutocracy.

you people really don't get it, think clearly Afghanistan, Iraq, china, Russia, that completes the circle on one side. the other side Ukraine, Georgia, Roumania , Yugoslavia, this makes the other side of the circle it is an iron curtain around Russia only this time is facing on the other direction. however the game china USA is on another level, it is more economical, it is between the Chinese corporations and the American corporations, however the end game is the destruction of china economically. the same is for Europe but Europe is entering the economical Marshall plan in short is a military pressure to win an economical war. the solution is south America and Africa, the Arabs nations are together on the scheme as they depend Washington for existence reason why Saudi Arabia is a dictatorship. Iran is just a balance piece, but it is Iran who can decide if the plan works or fails. as Iran can unite the Arab world and that will change the whole scenario, the west will loose in the end. on the other hand what we know as occident is long gone, reason why the military men worldwide have an urge to control the planet a 1984 scenario Orwellian world if you like.
