Nobody had ever heard the word Blitzkrieg before September of 1939. After that it was in every ones vocabulary. China has used a new tactic, becoming the OPEC of rare earth metals. And like OPEC it is a balancing act. They can use their control to influence policy in the rest of the world. But cut production too much and we will reopen our mines. Remember Drill here Drill now, and how quickly it faded when $4.00 a gallon gas went away.
