U.S. and China Go Bump in the Middle East

rudkla — 2008-06-28T07:44:00Z

For China these days it seems that nothing -- not rising energy prices; not sanctions aimed at its more unsavoury business partners, Burma and Sudan; not even the prospect of a nuclear Iran -- can curb its thirst for oil.

The Chinese military continues to increase spending on efforts to break into U.S. military computer systems, expand its Navy, and invest in intercontinental nuclear missiles and weapons to destroy satellites, according to the latest U.S report on Chinas military power.

Der Abschuss des Spionagesatelliten muss auch auf dem Hintergrund der strikten Weigerung der US-Regierung gesehen werden, ein UN-Abkommen zur Begrenzung der Rüstung im Weltraum auf den Weg zu bringen.

China könnte Dollar-Reserven als "politische Waffe" nutzen

Während Hilary Clinton im Präsidentschaftswahlkampf das China-Bashing für sich entdeckt, drohen chinesische Finanzpolitiker unverhohlen, die gewaltigen Dollarbestände auf den Markt zu werfen, sollte der Yuan gegenüber dem Dollar plötzlich dramatisch aufgewertet werden müssen.

Tax and trade insanity

National Review
by Michael T. Darda

08/09/07

Seventy-seven years ago, members of Congress erected a tariff wall aimed at protecting American business concerns. The result was a stock market crash followed by drastic retaliatory tariffs and a shutdown of the global trading system. The 1932 Revenue Act made matters worse by massively raising marginal tax rates on domestic incomes. These blunders set the stage for the Depression and world war that followed. Current members of Congress appear to have let their history books collect dust: A raft of anti-China currency and tariff legislation is now widely supported by both political parties as the exigencies of political grandstanding subvert the ideals of sound policy. At the same time, Chinese government officials have threatened to dump some of the governments $1 trillion in U.S. Treasury securities if Congress continues its currency bashing and tariff threats...

Of Peace, China and P-5

rudkla — 2007-06-26T16:08:00Z

J. Sri Raman writes: "China can be expected to step up its pressures for a new peace treaty in the coming days.... China warned that Washington's resistance would lead to an escalated arms race in space.... A recent report from the US Army War College claims that the Chinese political and military leadership is 'gradually revising its nuclear posture and even preparing for the possibility of using nuclear weapons in a preemptive counter-attack.' ... No concrete evidence in support of the claim is cited. The purpose of the report would seem to be to justify the Bush administration's plans to produce a new generation of nuclear weapons in the face of all internal and international opposition."
