China and The West

Read our blog post "China and the West" on TVO.org: http://bit.ly/9fDhZi

There are two schools of thought when dealing with the China question. One believes the West should work with China, giving them time to come around to our way of thinking. The other school believes the West has given China enough time to change, and that it's time to take a tougher stance. Which path is the best one to follow?

The west has now become Europe, North America and Australia. The west is not with

Russia, not with China, the west has lost Africa, South America and the Arab world thanks to Israel and Iraq. The west is not sitting on a stable bargaining position. Even with India and Japan the west doesn't have a reliable allies. The world doesn't want the western financial stranglehold thanks to the current melt down. The world doesn't trust the US as a global leader thanks to Iraq.

The west installed Israel, gored it in the throats of the Arabs, the west allowed nuke explosives to Israel, the west invaded IRAQ in the premise of a lie, the west gave us world war II. The west colonized the world and stole continents. China has been around for ever, never venturing out of its boarders. The most disgusting sin was committed by the west. Now the west accuses China of being what, arrogant? Please albinos its better if you shut up.

If all the sciences, concepts & technologies of the modern world were to originate from the Western world then yes, they have a case here with other nations besides China.

The reasons why China was singled out for everything to be debatable under the sun were because she is History (over 4000 yrs of record) Land (3.7million sq miles rich in rare-earth) & People (over 1.3billion=4 USA).

To understand China is like reading Shakespear in Sanskrits. China is not a Pest but a Gift to the world.

@PupuTheClown Japan makes quality products but the technology is from the US and other countries. Asia is adaptable and can use technology but they are not as creative as they appear to be.
