China and Israel have begun to revive military cooperation. ShareThis

Officials said China and Israel have decided to resume reciprocal visits as well as discussions on military cooperation. They said the cooperation would not include Israeli arms sales to China. "This is the first sparks of a relationship that has been frozen for several years," an official said.

Military sources said the visit by the Chinese delegation was not linked to the current Israeli tensions with the United States over Jewish construction in Jerusalem. They said the visit had been scheduled in 2009.

But the sources did not rule out the prospect that the Chinese visit could lead to a resumption of military cooperation with Israel. They said they did not know of high-level Chinese military visits planned for later 2010.

Well, Israel needs a large nation it can count on. And while I think China is not that nation, more and more the U.S. is not that nation either.

Obambi is trying to drive Israel into someone elses camp.

Wing nuts have always hated Israel. Now we have one in the White House.

Wow. Just...wow. Obviously, Israel has no intentions of going quietly in that dark night. I’d hoped we could keep them on our side...

China (Kings of the East) mobilizes under false pretenses to aid the wounded and entrenched Israel, and there you have countdown to Armageddon.

Why not? ObaMao stiffed Israel and told Netanyahu to STFU and STFD. Israel did what any jilted lover would do: Look for someone else.

Bad move. China isarming the Arab world, and protecting Iran. How long till Israel has to fly against Chinese built J-10s?

Most definitely not China. They’d be worse than Obambistan. I’m for India.

Looks like the rest of the world is making alliances with each other since America seems determined to become irrelevent.
