| #6 Iff the Kennedy Clan hope to see their family return to prestigious Pol Preeminence, then such hope may indeed rest on Caroline's shoulders vee preventing a major China-Japan = China-US? war, espec Nuclear, in NE Asia. * By the Precepts or Tenets of ANTI-US OWG GLOBALISM, CHINA is the more correct one in desiring 1/2 of the Pacific [East Asia-WESTPAC] + wanting the US to unilaterally pull back towards Hawaii + US West Coast [EASTPAC], NOT THE US IN ENTRENCHING OR REMAINING, ETC. IN EAST ASIA, WESTPAC, ETC. VEE ITS TRADITIONAL COLD WAR ASIAN ALLIES + POTUS OBAMA'S "PIVOT". Again, China sees US MilBases everywhere just off its coasts - China sees no PLA Milbases off any US coasts. Recipe for Geopol + Nukulaar troubles. |

VERSUS * WORLD NEWS > [Stars-N-Stripes] REPORT: US, PHILIPPINES AGREE ON [Troops, Air, Naval] ROTATIONS TO [Philippine] BASES NEAR SOUTH CHINA SEA. Iff China never felt being squeezed by POTUS Obama's "Pivot to Asia", its prob FEELING THE SQUEEZE NOW??? * SAME > [Noodls = Heritage Foundation] AMERICA NEEDS A COMPREHENSIVE STRATEGY FOR COUNTERING CHINA'S EXPANDING PERIMETER OF NATIONAL INTERESTS. D *** NG IT, DO YA MEAN CHINA'S DESIRED FUTURE ANTI-US "SPHERE OF INTEREST" IN EAST ASIA-PACIFIC [EastPac] = 1/2 OF THE PACIFIC BOOKER!? Uh, uh, methinks that Anti-US US OWG Globalist Obama = USA already has strategy - its called PCorrect-Deniable, OWG GLOBALIST US STRATEGIC/GLOBAL SELF-RETREAT = UNILATERAL RETREAT/FALLBACK = US-N-ONLY-THE-US "RETREAT IS WORLD PEACE". Again, the Globies have NOT yet answered how much is "too much", andor how far is "too far", etc. for the Soon-to-be-Ex-Sole-Superpower-Future C-SUperpower USoAmerika, the OWG Mighty USSA versus the OWG Weak USRoA Gobal SSR, is supposed to give up and retreat widout being existentially threatened by its new Co-Superpower Siblings Russia, Iran, + China, Other(s)? or NGOS, etc. wannabes??? just sayin. * SAME > [Noodls] YEMEN, IRAN STRATEGIC NAVAL EXPANSION, ANTI-ACCESS AREA -DENIAL [A2-AD]. A [Self = Unilaterally]"Weak/Declining" USA = Rising Iran = Rising China = Rising Putinist Russia = Rising ... ...??? "US-STYLE", NUCLEAR, PAR-WID-THE-USA-NOT-INFERIOR-TO-THE-USA CO-SUPERPOWERS-IN-DA-HOOD. As one Nation falls, forcibly or voluntarily, Another or Other(s) will rise, correct??? Thus it is NOT wrong to link or infer so-called MilPol/Geopol "Parity" or "Rough Parity" wid some forms(s) of "Superiority" or even "Dominance". * BHARAT RAKSHAK > CHINA TO INTEGRATE MONGOLIAN, RUSSIA INITIATIVES WID [India-led] MSR - THE HINDU. IMO "Russia" in China's view read = EAST OF THE URALS. |

| #2 Well, at least you can't say he isn't covering his Acheson bases on this one. Lip service is the absolute minimum, but wars have started for less. |
