The world's next superpower

My Chinese friends locally insist that China has targeted the USA for acquisition…

I’ve targeted Anna Kournikova for acquisition, but it's the actual execution that's a bit trickier.

There are allot of Leftists at the helms of corporations which are abusing Capitalism. Hollywood for instance peddles an image of the US which daily grows darker.

The following are a list of Prime Suspects in the undermining of Capitalism:

MTV

Abercrombie and Fitch

VIACOM

MIRAMAX

What better way to abuse capitalism than to do it from the inside out.

Well, I guess they're on their way to Kansas.

I agree with your thoughts. However, I also found your following statement to be ironic:

"you only "own" property if you have the means of defending it "

The same could be said here in the United States. Though we work our entire lives to purchase a home and property to put it on, it doesn't really belong to us. Try not paying your taxes and see what happens!

It all boils down to the great support from Wal-Mart, et aluis, for buying Chicom-made junk, bought in quantities by American brain-dead buyers.

The fact of the $80 Billion trade deficit with China does not seem to penetrate American numb skulls as a threat. The Chicoms have already developed advanced missiles tipped with multi-targeted H bombs and the delivery systems to turn the US into dust (all no thanks to the Felon and his evil crew).

Even with 'merely' solar energy, the spaces could have desalinated water.

With super cheap 'zero-point' energy, the open spaces could easily become forests and gardens.

But actually, China might be able to do wonders in Australia 'merely' putting millions treading gears for pumping water, desalting water etc. But she'll have the technology even if it has to be nuclear or solar.

How to make Australia's deserts blossom is merely a technical detail solvable in a list of ways.

Looks like the Chinese are going to help make your book a best seller.

[Quix]

Another way might fit . . . The Bible says a huge army or military force from a "KING OF THE EAST" will attack Israel and the middle east.

Perhaps they could plan to use the oil to desalt water for Chinese Australia.

[Quix]

BTW, if they conquer Australia, it won't be for long.

God will deal with China harshly if they are the King of the East attacking Israel.

What with bozos like Bill Klinton, the democRATS, Hillery, Hollywood etc around , and the headaches they create, we ask,
"why would China wants the US ?" unless they are masochist, or something....
Bwahahahaha

Well, I guess they're on their way to Kansas.

No, they’re probably heading somewhere inhabitable.

I agree with your assessments, its just that I dont think that China fits into the traditional meaning of a totaltarian regieme.

When Mao was in power, yes, but not now.

Again, I agree with your assessments, especially when it comes to the corruption that seems to flow endlessly from the top down but they have been doing their homework and things are slowly changing.

I would be more inclined to call Kim-Jong Il a totaltarian ruler. He could get away with an incident like Tiananmen, I dont honestly believe that the Chinese could pull that off again.

A nation in search of its raw materials, rice production, territiry and population. It also is a challenger on some possible oil exploration in the Spratly Island area.

Your declarations seem overwrought to me . . .

However, in terms of The Party, the Peter principle does seem to be a serious problem.

HOWEVER, THEY CAN get top people into top positions when they want to. The competition amongst so many citizens for top merit positions DOES TEND to produce some top flight people.

As a rare western PhD in my provincial capital, I was responsible for teaching a number of such people. They were top quality in a list of ways.

And they had opinions and feelings aplenty about bringing China into the modern world politically as well as economically and scientifically.

[ASA Vet]

OK, you know the rules, where's the photo?

[Quix]

We shall see.

Poohbah would certainly agree with you.

[Jeff Head]

Well, I hope the messages in the books about our current policies and how they are assisting in the accomplishment of these very goals by the PRC will somehow get through.

Right now, there are not nearly enough people who even know about the books. I hope the word somehow gets out.

I guess I need a Sean Hannity or Ann Coulter or a someone with that type of reach to read them, like them and then spread the word.

The Philpines consiste of well over 7000 islands and a population of 70 million. There is widespread poverty and a host of social-economic problems. It is the "sick man of Asia", what the Brits call "a basket case" Now, in view of this, who in his right mind would even think of conquering her ?

The islands are in a very strategic position for a naval and air base. Whoever holds the Philipines can project power over the whole South Pacific

The Chinese could use the real estate -- the people are expendable. So you go in with your surplus males and take over. Then you have 35 million Philipine women to keep your men happy. Yes, the islands are poor. This means that the only men with the income to support a wife will be Chinese. The surplus Philipine men can be transferred to the sugar cane plantations.

The same process can be repeated in other poor-but-strategic countries, places with either good locations or good natural resources. I could see the Chinese moving in to take over Zimbabwe and South Africa once the US's economy is so bad that we don't have the resources to contest it any longer. Mugabe would welcome the Chinese if they would guarantee him a few more years in power, in exchange for the Chinese taking final possession

[Quix]

China would view such as useful idiots.

One dream/vision had a very hostile Chinese General in the coming attack on the USA killing EVERY AMERICAN IN CALIFORNIA until he was assassinated in San Francisco at some point in the process.

The fact that a wide diversity of Christians around the world have had dreams and visions of China invading . . . along with perhaps George Washington's dream . . . it's an interesting prospect, at least.

Re your post #74

Your point is absolutely correct, eg, look at the number of Olympic Golds China wins in diving, gymnastics, table-tennis and all the sports that they set their minds on. Look at the way they came out with their first atom bomb, from scratch.

Their system is to go round the whole country to search for the best talents and brains from the very young. Place them in special schools and groom them
