Jiang backs Bush on terrorism, nukes

Yeah. Sure he does.

Why wouldnt he...on WalMart products alone his country's making hand over fist $$$...he wouldnt want a couple of N.Kor nukes to disrupt the cash flow...would he?

Plus...don't the Chinese and Koreans have a really nasty history?

[smalltown]

Yes they do have a nasty history and a nasty present. There's no love lost between the Chinese and the NK's.
If the Chinese wanted a nuclear N.Korea they could have given them the technolory or the actual weapons long ago.
Nukes in NK are at least as big a nightmare to the Chinese dictators as it is to us.

Make that "technology".

Allow me to be perhaps not the first to point out that the takeover of Hong Kong by China will have more affect than even the Chinese yet realize.

Hong Kong will affect China much more than China will affect Hong Kong.

Capitalism works. Even China knows it.
