Isnt it interesting, suddenly, their friends! Friendly enough to hold joint war games? My goodness with their combined military might they might be quite a handful! No one seems to think much of this development, nothing to worry about? They are our friends? Is that why we have nukes pointed at their little part of the world? This little article didnt mention the SU95's flying along our Alaskan border, recently, of course it was just a friendly reminder that their bombers are still just a stones throw away and we are still friends with the ruskies and red commies so dont think anytinhg of it!

Russian and Chinese leaders face three centers of nuclear military power with which they have to deal. (4/28/02)

The Russians and the Chinese are not natural allies. Russia's population is declining, and it has continual friction with a number of the ex-USSR Muslim countries. China is growing in strength, and would like to reoccupy some of resource rich, sparsely populated Siberia. Isn't that obvious?

Didn't Russia test US air defenses again recently with their nuclear bombers?

- China and Russia are planning to hold joint military exercises for the first time in more than 30 years, a report said yesterday. The drills, which will take place sometime in August, will involve all three branches of the armed forces from both countries, according to a report on Taiwan's ETtoday.com website. War games involving the Chinese and Russian armies will take place in north-eastern China, while their navies and air forces will conduct drills in the Yellow Sea. The report said it showed that Sino-Russian military interaction, previously limited to arms purchases and mutual expressions of support on international issues, has since progressed to strategic cooperation

So much for the naysayers that said the Sino-Russian alliance signed in July 2001 was disrupted and perhaps even 'killed' in the aftermath of 9-11 and following the formation of a new US "strategic partnership" with Russia in the war against terrorism. The Sino-Russian alliance is fast to progressing to a full-scale NATO-type military alliance between the most powerful nuclear superpower in the world and the most populous country in the world with the biggest army in the world. The US ought to take note of this new global peer-competitor.

Maybe its time for someone to figure out who has created the more long lasting enemies of the US - Roosevelt or Bush.
