China and Russia have some mojo in issuing such a call to America. We are still the world's superpower.
This is disturbing to say the least.
I'm not sure we will have the capabilities to remain the world's superpower for long.
I believe both China and Russia have assisted AQ and are aware of AQ's upcoming plans to attempt to "hit" the US destructively. That could be why both are calmly arrogant.
We've basically spilled the beans ourselves that we can't handle more than one major war at a time. So we have China threatening Taiwan (would we, or would we not,come to their aid?). We have NK blathering about launching test nukes and making more. China/Japan issues are arising although there is a sense of a possibly underlying alliance between them depending upon how things go with the US.
Russia is openly supporting Iran and Syria. Now stating we are wanted OUT of various other countries they consider their sphere.
Personally, I'm not too pleased to see us working with the Uzbeks. I have read that their leader is a sadistic torturere who make Saddam look like a pussycat.
I believe after the chips fall we will no longer be the world's superpower. Probably China will assume that role.
