| #5 Nah. The Argies PO'd the Brazilians by basically zeroing out their investments. Be easier for Brazil to simply buy the Falklands from the Brits. |

| #4 g, Russia & Brazil would be bettet off without it. Better off without ME oil, or better off without Chinese control over ME oil? Given Russian sales to China I can see where they would object to China getting a new, wholly owned subsidiary, as there primary supplier. Brazil will help the Argies take over the Falklands, right? 8^) |

| #3 What do you think the BRIC would do as the leaders of the world in such situations as exist in the ME and Africa? China needs ME oil, Russia & Brazil would be bettet off without it. |

| #2 The fact that the west, including the US, has spent/borrowed and PC'ed itself into a crumbling wreck lends a certain piquancy to the idea of a new world order. What do you think the BRIC would do as the leaders of the world in such situations as exist in the ME and Africa? |

| #1 In LIBYUH, desired OWG-NWO "REGIONALISM" runs headsmack into Muslim-on-Muslim "ISLAMIC PCORRECTNESS". ION ... To wit, * WAFF > LIBYA'S TEST [Libyuh = a Test] OF THE NEW INTERNATIONAL ORDER, as per the US, Europe, BRIC Nations, + UNO's ability to effec lead, respond to various Crisis as a UNIFIED ENTITY. IOW, LIBYUH CRISIS = A TEST OF "GLOBALISM" + DESIRED FUTURE OWG-NWO. versus * TOPIX > [AllAfrica] THE LIES BEHIND THE WEST'S WAR IN LIBYA. ARTIC= Europe desires to maintain Colonial-style hegemony + domination oer an INTENTIONALLY [West]DIVIDED, SECTARIAN AFRICA; THE EU SUPPORTED THE CREATION OF A "UNION FOR THE MEDITERRANEAN" [UPM]IN ORDER TO DETER + PREVENT THE RISE OF A "UNITED STATES OF AFRICA" VEE KEEPING [Oil-Rich] NORTH AFRICA POL, ECON SEPARATE FROM [Black?] AFRICA. IOW, ARTIC = the West wants Black Africans to be factionaliszed, weak, + permanently poor = dependent on foreign aid??? Contrary to the West's view, LIBYA'S GADDAFI is perceived by many Black Africans as a GENEROUS PERSON, A HUMANIST [Progressive], + A DEDIC STAUNCH OPPONENT AGZ SOUTH AFRICA'S POLICY OF APARTHEID. |
