Of all the countries in the world, which country poses the biggest threat to the United States? Without a doubt, the answer is China.

Of all the countries in the world, which country poses the largest challenge to the United States? Without a doubt, the answer is Iran.

China and Iran. Opposite ends of the world. But combined, they might just be able to accomplish some good - certainly for themselves but also for the rest of our world.

Now, finally, China has chosen to enter the Iranian nuclear power fray. And Iran is paying attention.

China's involvement with Iran became public when the assistant minister of foreign affairs for China paid a visit to Iran. While there he met with significant players in Iran's nuclear and security apparatus. His visit was important enough to warrant a meeting with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

Reading the article in full is the only way to get the jist.

China wants stability in Iran to maintain the oil flow.

Our goals are the same, but what tragic toys will China give Iran?

Toys that will achieve a balance of power between Iran and its UN enemies, and prevent the Wests attack.

We on the other hand want the people of Iran to be free and stable without weapons of mass destruction, the Chinese do not want THAT.

This is China's answer to the US alliance with India and Pakistan.

Hasn't China provided Iran with silkwoms for the last 20 years or so?

This is nothing new.

Indeed they have, the problem is that the Iranians can't maintain them for longer than a couple of years.

Don't forget that the neo-communist in the Kremlin is selling Iran weapons and helping the Iranians set up their infrastructure.

China and Iran. Opposite ends of the world.

Huh? China is a mere 400 miles from Iran.

Chinese have historically allied with the Persians in military campaigns against the Arabs. There was a period in Chinese history when it heavily concentrated on Central Asia. Several Tang Dynasty generals were Persians and aristocratic intermarriage was common. They are not in "opposite ends of the world."

Who?.. wants the people of Iran to be free? You and I?Or the US Government?I really did not know they were bond in slavery.I do know their culture and political system is noticeably different from ours but I don't know whether they really feel bound or free.As for weapons of mass destruction..we have these and have an edge on other countries..but just don't want others to acquire them for fear we will lose our edge and bluff to get it our way.
Other countries are begining to change their view of the USA.Once looked upon as liberators of the oppressed,we now are called the oppressor..even by countries we helped liberate and are still giving aid to.(there is a different generation there..and also a different generation here in America).As for China's present government..I really don't see a dominating spirit of imperalism like the ones that preceded this one.As a matter of fact,the people have been set free by their President.These people are like a covey of Quail that just found out the door was opened on their cage.And they are flying high after many years of being couped up.I want to tell you...that really thrills me to see Chinese freedom...now nothing can hold 'em down.They were starved..but now they eat!
Our government wants to hold 'em back economicly but they are off the leash..and doing what they do best..making money!Who are WE to reprimand them..the US government can't even clean their own house and REFUSE TO--so who are the oppressed now?YOU and I.Whose gonna protect You and I from the Protectors?

Free, you know the self evident truths :

1) That all men are created equal ( Iran , The Mullahs and hereditary Imams are special aristocrats controlling government so they can have a stab at world domination)

2) Life, That no man will suffer his life to be taken without a fair trial by his peers ( Sharia Law rules and life can be taken on one judges word, a muslim judge, without even a chance to organize and call defence witnesses)

3) Liberty: (Freedom of movement about the country. This is not possible without a special government pass in Iran)

4) Pursuit of Happiness: The right of the individual to self define his life's work, with out interference from other men or the state, and the right to attempt upward socio-economic mobility. ( This is not allowed in Iraq, unless your family has connections with the ruling classes.)

All men , regardless of their culture, require these Freedoms in order to live as genuine human beings.

Freedom is more than the condition of "Not Slavery"

And if the people of Iraq do not achieve it, then those who fetter them will also fetter us.

Now the Chinese simply don't want a war in Iran, because that would interupt their own oil suplly from Iran. They are trying to calm these hair brained Iranian politicians down.

At the same time the Chinese are willing to give the Iranians the same nuclear big stick we have to make a stable situation between the US and Iran via MAD ( Mutually Assured Destruction). We think the Iranians will give their nukes to terrorists and destablize the oil supplies of America

Who do you think is right?

Which one of those horses you want to bet on , meat ???
