I believe an US-Asian nexus(be it India or Chinese) will be necessary to control the savages of europe.
Did you post that just to have something to say?
Unfortunately, George Bush will never get credit (until historians long after we are dead write about it) for his skillful manouvering with India.
As Mark Steyn once wrote, “China will be old before it is rich.” Their one-child policy means that within half a century their demographics will resemble Japans.
India is the future of Asia. And we are on the right side of that.
“I believe an US-Asian nexus(be it India or Chinese) will be necessary to control the savages of europe.”
I think you may be right...a common enemy may be what actually keeps the peace between the China and the US...
Your hopes for 'tomorrows' alliances have one big stumbling-block...the facts of today: Those "allies" regard us as an enemy or pigeon to be fleeced.
Both India and China are stealing our industries, technologies and military secrets right and left.
China openly classifies us the "main enemy" and their people only regard us as the enablers of their ascendancy. So of course SOME of their people jolly well "like" Americans. But that is fleeting and ephemeral. Once we get in their way...that will all be over.
India is more complicated, being reflexively Third World in its popular outlook. Hence, any deals are likely worth very little. Note, the complete lack of any real benefits as a counterbalance to China...or the Jihadists, despite W's heavy committments to India. We are getting essentially nothing for very concrete transfusions...
They just don't have the pull that China can swing...the Chi-Comms being totally "on page" as the tyranny it is...able to meticulously follow a script...no matter how complicated. Pretending to be temporarily benign. Child's play for professional liars.
