@fluidambient,
Let the Chinese Iran and or even the South America Presidents dream on.....Anyway regarding the USSR situation before the fall of the wall, i tell ya,
Things were pretty stable...The Cold War kept the world at bay and we did not have all the problems globalisation it getting us into....I hate it!!!!
In my opinion Russia was better before and so Europe with their own currency, ideology and political messes....That 's the way i liked it...We In Europe have this utopic idea to beat US economy by creating the brutal European Union......F...k Them!!!!
I loved the time when US were politically influent and could manipulate and control most of the foreign governaments.....What i do not like is when people speak about top secrets material against their own country and US had many traitor inside men....Shame!!!!!!
The truth is that US is a strong and powerful nation, foreigners hate that, they hate that sense of unity and patriotism keep you guys together....Remember 9/11?
The only thing that Bush should have done, it is to involve more the ONU after the terroist attack and then have taken action.....he did not. Many people around the world hate him...But it is not only for that! Above all is for the power of USA to look after your own interests....Well done, I admire that!!! Which country wouldn't do the same!
China will not have a chance to expand. Perhaps should be left alone but watched closely by US secret intelligence Agencies........ What do you think?
