In his Washington Times column, Arnaud de Borchgrave begins by asking us to "Imagine a world where Russia and the European Union of 25 nations, and Russia and China, and the EU and China, all find more in common with each other than with the United States." Frequent readers of this space will recognize that I do that indeed. The trouble being that it isn't entirely an effort of the imagination, and while de Borchgrave says, "Unimaginable, you correctly say," he goes on to provide a portion of the evidence of the potential anti-U.S. entente....

Keep dreaming.
