anonymous2u, could you expound on that a little bit? I'd be interested in knowing more from someone who actually knows something (as opposed to the "experts" who are usually wrong). Thnx.

If China starts to go down, they are going to call in IOUs.
I dunno, Steve - there's always a possibility that Salma knows more that the so-called "experts."
(Of course, so does a rock.)

Barbara, Friedrich would say that Selma knows more about localized economic information and conditions related specifically to Selma Hayek than does any given team of trained and credentialed experts. Unless, of course, that team of trained and credentialed experts have complete access to all of Selma's financial information, intentions, plans, & expectations, *AND* the time and attention required to process that information in a timely manner.
A Selma Hayek *might* be able to afford that team of obsessively informed and dedicated trained experts, but lord knows few others do, and the emphasis has to be on experts *employed* by the economic individual. Elsewise you've blown right past "principal-agent problem" into out-right predatory interference, known by the rest of us as a full-blown hostile audit.

If China sells USD, they will buy commodities further stoking inflation.

PEOPLE'S DAILY FORUM > {Munk Debates] KISSINGER: CHINA WILL NOT DOMINATE THE CURRENT CENTURY.
ARTIC = Over the next decade [2011-2021 = 2020-2030?], China is likely to be pre-occupied balancing its political instutions wid its economic changes, CHINA = "PREMATURE" POWER.
NIAL FERGUSON = disagrees wid Henry Kissinger in that he believes that most of the past centuries had been China's save for the 19th + 20th centuries.
* SAME > CHINA "WALKING A FINE LINE" IN DEALING WID NORTH KOREA: EXPERT [Jonathan Pollock of the Brookings Institute]. China comprises the bulk of the DPRK's foreign trade while is also wary of the DPRK's NUCLEAR INTENTIONS, i.e. dev of potent NucWeaps capabilities that can be used
asmuch agz China as any other State.
* CHINESE MILITARY FORUM [old = May 2011] > CHINA IS "DOOMED" ACCORDING TO [US SecState]HILLARY CLINTON | HILLARY CLINTON: CHINA'S SYSTEM IS DOOMED, LEADERS ON A "FOOL'S ERRAND", vee hardline internal oppos to vital Democratic + Human Rights reforms as symbolized by the troubled Arab-Muslim Govts, Monarchies = "Jasmine" Uprisings in the Middle East + North AFrica.
The main thing wrong in the above Aertics is that CHINA = BEIJING + CPC BELIEVE THEIR METHODS CAN - they are NOT willing to wait until 2080-2100 to achieve their [post-US = Sole] "Manifest Destiny". CHINA WANTS IT NOW - ASAP AMAP ALAP ATAP 2050-2080/2100, + NOT TAKING "NO" FOR AN ANSWER.

Mil Conflicts aside, what can trip Rising China up is the same as can trip the US up, i.e. LACK OF "UNIVERSAL" GOVT, PERT CONSENSUS AS PER GLOBAL WARMING-CLIMATE CHANGE, + ESPEC "PEAK EVERYTHING".
The current + future State of the World's major resources, espec as per support for DEEP SPACE TRAVEL, EXPLORATION + COLONIZATION, WHICH IS THE PURPOSE OF [post-Nationalist, SOvereign]OWG-NWO TO BEGIN WITH.

Ha'aretz fancy themselves the New York Times of Israel...and they are, in all the wrong ways. In this case they see disaster when things are actually finally going in the right direction. Snctimonious asses.

The Militants will surely test POTUS BAMMER's willingness to militarily defend Israel beyond just Diplomatic, MSM media rhetoric, IMO most likely vee one or more high-profile, high-casualty Terrops agz Israel as launched from Lebanon or another nearby sovereign Muslim country.
Lest we fergit, besides the Syria troubles to its North, + Hezbollah's expanding arsenal, Israel is also facing INTER-BEDOUIN "TRIBAL" TRUBLES IN THE SINAI.
Again, I don't see Israel even giving consideration to the proposed return to 1967 borders unless IT FORMALLY JOINS NATO, or in the altern other US, NATO-EU led regional alliance e.g. EU + so-called MEDITERRANEAN UNION includ MEDITERR SECURITY TREATY [MST], revised CENTO?
Good for Israel's own Security + allows the Euros, Region to share in supporting any de facto PA State - RIGHT NOW ISRAEL IS THE ONLY NATION THAT IS SEEMINGLY ENBURDENED TO CARE FOR THE NEW PA STATE BECUZ FEW OR NONE OF THE OTHER MUSLIM STATES WILL, + WHILE DEDIC MILITANTS ALSO CONTINUE TO DEMAND THEIR RIGHT TO STILL ATTACK + DESTROY ISRAEL EXISTENTIALLY.
The Militants know US Congress-critters are not likely to rush to Israel's mil defense given America's = Amerika's own econ troubles - EVEN IFF FUTURE US POLS DID, THE MILITANTS WILL HAVE NUKES-WMD = REGIONAL, INTERNATIONAL/GLOBAL NUKE TERROR CAPABILITY BY THEN.
Desire for anti-US Islamist Order in Oriental Asia + Africa, versus anti-US Commie-Socialist-Govtist Order in the US-West. ONCE RADICAL ISLAM EFFEC NUCLEARIZES, THE HONEYMOON BETWEEN NUCLEAR ISLAM + ANTI-US SECULAR LEFTS WILL BE OVER.
Truth be told, its already cracking.
* ION PEOPLE'S DAILY FORUM > THE REASON THAT AL-QAEDA SELECTED ZAWAHIRI AS BIN LADEN'S SUCCESSOR IS A KEY PLAYER - EGYPT. The post-Mubarak Govt's De-listing = "legalization" of the MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD has made Egypt a sudden hotspot for Al-Qaeda's agendas, albeit wid a yet uncertain outcome.
* VARIOUS > US-WEST TRAPPED AS AL-QAEDA'S STRATEGY OF "CHAINS OF JIHAD" MIMICS US STRATEGY OF "CHAINS OF TERROR".
Intehwesting, "Half-War(S)" by one to obtruct or defeat the "Half-War(s) " of another,; Radical Islamist "Chain" to defeat the US "Chain"???
IIUC ARTIC = Post-OBL Al-Qaeda = Radical Islam will be able to recover from the passing of OBL, etal. death or capture of key leaders once RADICAL ISLAMISM COMES TO DOMINATE THE "JASMINE" UPRISINGS IN LIBYA + EGYPT = NORTH AFRICA; + ALSO EVEN AS PER SUDAN + SOMALIA = EAST AFRICA???
Jihad-Insurgencies in Nigeria, Kenya, etc.???
IMO read, SUEZ CANAL TRADE FLOWS + AFRICAN OIL.
* PEOPLE'S DAILY FORUM > [US Senator Dianne] FEINSTEIN: "ISI CAN NAB ZAWAHIRI IFF THEY WANT TO".
Iff Pak rely really Really R-E-A-L-L-Y RRREEELLLLYYY WANT TO, D *** NG IT!
WARD BOND = "REAL, REAL, spelled R-E-L, REAL"!
* SAME > UK DEFENCE CHIEFS WARN CUTS THREATEN SECURITY.
ARTIC = Britain has fought andor participated in in SEVEN WARS over the past 30 years, ALL OF WHOM WERE "UN-EXPECTED/UN-ANTICIPATED", UK'S TWIN PILLARS OF MAINTAINING "ESSENTIAL RELATIONSHIP WID THE US" + "NATO ALLIANCE" NOW AT RISK.
[GOMER "SURPRISE, SURPRISE, SURPRISE, SGT. CARTER, ITS A WAR" PYLE here].
And once again, Virginia, we learn why 1960's = future OWG MADONNA rises to her position.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
