democratic world.waht a joke

[madridisinSpain]

1.9trillion $ in a country with 1.5 billion is almost $1300 per chineese, I know it doesn't sound like much, but it must be abut a year of salary there.

[eightincher8]

China has 1.3 billion people not 1.5. and $1500 in china can buy a lot more than 150,000 in Spain thanks to controlled inflation and government regulated prices for grocery and necessities. But this is foreign reserve, China doesnt need to finance its people's loan because Chinese dont have much loans and debts.

[eightincher8]

Spain is a backward unciviilzed tiny nation, no nuclear weapons, no nuclear subs, no space ship, no nothing. so you should shut the fuck up and get down to your knees and worship us cuz we are the most superior race.

[madridisinSpain]

@eightincher8 I have absolutely nothing vsa China

[madridisinSpain]

@eightincher8 And another 2 things, 1st Spain is no longer Spain, in international matters you should talk about the European Union(biggest GDP in the world) 2nd China is going to be the leading country in the world (thats great and well deserved for the chineese efforts) but the way they are building this superpower they will soon be is NOT by nuclear weapons and other toys, but by making GOOD FRIENDS around the world like South Africa, Australia, OPEC coutries, Brazil, etc.

[Ameer18]

@madridisinSpain good then get on your knees and start sucking:)

[drukpamongol]

The so called freedom fighter who live in United state are just bunch of self serving traitor to their nation.

[fyyongmy]

At last the black had command the white dog

[lthp]

United states want good relations to benefit its global position yet doing harm subtlely to china at the same time. A form of ruthless risk management to me

[popqq123]

dont worry, we chinese do not trust the USA government anyway. I have some really good american friends that are average citizens but i do not like the USA government

[liuguoyu]

come on guys,why do we have to debate? who the hell cares about diplomatic relations with china?what they are? they are bunch of communist barstads who produces billion tons of tainted foodstuffs to feed the billion chinese. the relations with China for US should be banning whatever imported from china.

[ok226]

"Chinese need to get back to their roots--Confucianism, and Islam"

I feel sorry for this guy, you need go back to school to restudy your books about China's history before u made such stupid comment.

[popqq123]

dude ok226 please do not educate these retarded americans, keep them retard. Im actually enjoying reading these retarded comments. It gives me a sense that China is producing more smart and educated people. I really care less about these fags, all i care about is my own peoples intellectual improvement and advancing while we will be praying for the dumb down of american teen population, the more dumb they become the better. Its much easier to control a dumb population so please do not educat

[March0000]

The only thing worse than stupidity is the pursuit of stupidity, as Renegen (below) can attest.

[Renegen1]

"Unified China". It's hard to be unified when a very select few control the lives of over a billion people. They don't need to blame their problems on foreign countries, they only have to look inwards to their police state.

[banzaidawan]

Rebiya Kadeer is just the al-Qaeda sleeper cell in the U.S. She's personally taking in 2 of the 17 Uyghur terrorists from Guantanamo.

[liuguoyu]

hello banzai,trust on me,people hate china!!everyone does! whatz now for you?after tainted milk,now is tainted eggs?haha,good on u,fucking chinese.ur goverment will steadily wipe you guys out with those tainted shit!

[banzaidawan]

liuguoyu: People do care overseas, because China is where they'll get their bail out money for this financial meltdown. That includes your Taiwan.

[liuguoyu]

haha,bailout my ass!the stupid chinese like you are in dream of becoming a world hero now.ud better to save some money for your own countrymen,there are 900 million poor chinese villagers who are suffering from their own economic meltdown.yes,they live 1 USD a day,plz give some bailout money to them.i think u have just eatten too many chinese toxic eggs these days.

[mkfk1]

700 millions rural residents, not 900

CCP wont dumb money in the US unless they are getting some deal in return. Those US carriers looks nice, trade a few of them to the chinese and they will dumb a few billions into the US market.

[banzaidawan]

liuguoyu: China, with its US$ 2 TRILLION foreign currency reserves (No. 1 in the world and TWICE of No. 2 Japan's), will come out much stronger through the global geo-political and economic reshuffle from this Wall Street Meltdown. Of course, U.S., EU, and Japan will become much weaker after their self-inflicted economic mess.

We've seen this before during the Asian Financial Crisis back in 1998. Ten years ago, China's foreign currency reserves was US$ 145 Billion or 1/13 of now.

[queenrayray7]

I?m in these apartment wondering when some beautiful buddy is gonna make my dreams come true.

[dagnemrth]

The entire "US action" concept bank on the fundamental requirement that, well, there's anything they can do.

right now, the US can do about as much to China as Cuba can do to the United States.

[mauroand77]

chinese muslims terrorists are refugges in US? what a joke. This is not politics anymore this is piss taking, they don't even pretend anymore.

[banzaidawan]

mauroand77:  Anyways, they're the next terrorists sleeper cell in the U.S., right next to Washington D.C.

[KhmerD0g]

that is one hot bitch at the beginning. i would screw her

[cuppachai]

U gotta respect the Chinese tho..

How many Chinese have actually seen this and made a comment?

Make sure ur ppl don't speak the lingua franca of the world.. Therefore u have total control over them.. And their source of information and means of communication...

The ultimate way to control a nation..

Sad..

[Rogermelly01]

Bush sure does associate with a lot of terrorists considering his war on terror. Corrupt cunt that he is, and the rest

[conduit99]

I support the Uighurs. Han Chinese are acting like imperial assholes, and telling their population to emigrate to Xijang and Tibet and they take over the economy, policy, and destroy the cultures and existence of these people.

[hellowjp]

If Uigurs and Tibetans have the right to move to any city in China, then the Han Chinese should enjoy that same right. Everyone should be equal. Uigurs and Tibetans enjoy so many leverages that the Han Chinese don't, it's almost getting ridiculous. It is not the Han people who are destroying minorities' cultures, it is simply the fact that they are the majority and they outnumber the rest of the ethnics in China.

[hellowjp]

But I do agree that there are ethnic issues that need to be addressed in China. However, in a country that is as complicated as China, nothing will ever be solved simply by supporting one side of the argument alone.

[conduit99]

You are obviously a thoughtful person. Unlike the many idiots on youtube. I just dont like the route China's going (they could have gone left or right) and it seems they're going the route White poeple have w/ regards to other Nations. Chinese need to get back to their roots--Confucianism, and Islam. Back in the day Tibet and Xijiang had Autonomy and were pretty much vassals (just paying tribute) but were in charge of their own governance and lives. The way China is approaching this (cont)

[andrew3656]

wtf fool what r u going around sayin "han chinese this han chinese that" like we're some especially evil ethnic group? before the media started blasting "han chinese" around n makin "han chinese" look like 1 billion devils, u wouldn't even have known whats the difference between a cantonese and a shanghainese, let alone a Han Chinese LOL. idiot

[sianghan]

"Chinese need to get back to their roots--Confucianism, and Islam"

Confucianism yes, but Islam? Since when was Islam a dominant religion in China? If anything, I hope the Chinese stick to their traditional philosophies of governance. The last thing you want is an Islamic government(or any religious freak) running your country. Islamic governments ALWAYS lead their country to economic disaster. (Pure dumb luck of sitting on oil does not count)

[conduit99]

(cont) issue is not only disrespectful 2 the indigeneous peoples of the Xijiang & Tibet regions, but is offensive & upsetting 2 Muslims & Buddhists around the World. The Han Chinese will damage their reputation greatly if they continue on this path.

P.S. BTW, I totally agree w the Chinese Gov't that the U.S. r RANK hypocrites when it comes 2 Human Rights w/ regards 2 what they do DIRECTLY & other countries they give "aid" to, to fight proxy wars, & 4 other gov'ts who oppress their own people.

[CelestialKindred]

Bin Laden did not kill a single American with his own hands, but he supported, funded and executed all those acts.

That's what Kadeer was accused of.

[warsonglord]

China is US' top concern because China is getting stronger. that's why US somehow has to point the fingers at China.

[Jewishfan]

China is constantly violating human rights. Yet, no body want to deal with this country. Where all human rights organization? Where "Peace Now?" organization? Yes, I know where are they. They counting how many homes Jews build in Judea and Samaria. In the meantime a lot of people being oppressed in China by their own communist government.

[oceanbound222]

The US violates human rights all over the world. Just ask the arabs and afghans !!!

[Jewishfan]

The world you refereeing to, is enjoying U.S. so called human right violation, otherwise they "world" would resist.

[Smaug84]

Some resist, some don't. I really don't see how numbers mean a damn thing in terms of approval, after all when you look at how many US citizens are disappointed in Congress, but amazingly their representatives usually have a high approval rating. lol

[cuppachai]

I like that... "The World"..

[ferrarithefastest]

Did you know that the afghan and UN have pictures of innocent civilians killed by NATO air strikes? Whats that? Trying to rid the world of taliban?

[cuppachai]

UN? WHAT UN? There is no UN.. Its a farce!

[andrew3656]

lol? i thought jews were supposeed to Be smart, now y would u be making such dumb ass comments?

[hellowjp]

It's obvious that the US would not want a strong and unified China, be it democratic or not. A China with problems and oppositions is a China that US wants. It does not want The Dragon to reach its full potential, but only wants it to be constantly annoyed.

[awerner2007]

You are probably right, sadly. My government is very naughty! No pun intended.

[barlog20]

I agree 200 percent.The Dalai Lama,the Tibetens and the Falun Gon people are steered and backed by the U.S to cause China problems.America is nwo controlled,And they use America as a war machine to take over other countries.China,Russia,North Korea ,Pakistan and many Arabic,African and South American countries they don`t control.And China is the biggest Threat to there One World Government Control and 90 percent depopulation and enslavement plans.
