#2 China has to be feeling the heat regarding the Islamist threat as well. I don't know enough about China to predict - but it would not surpise me if China will someday want to work with us to fight against it.

#5 NS - WWII

The Molotov-Ribbentrop nonagression pact was signed on August 23, 1939, just a week before Poland was finally invaded by both Hitler and Stalin.

As to China, I think there is an understanding that any conflict will result in the collapse of trade and the undermining of their economy resulting in civil disorder and a much greater threat to the leadership's power than any external one.

#7 Russia was - German intel detected the movements of large Russian units to near the Polish-German border in violation of the Non-Agression Pact, Hitler. amongst other reasons, basically attacked Stalin before Stalin could attack him. Historical revisionissm > No one remembers that Russia's military deployments caused TWO WORLD WARS, NOR THAT STALIN'S BOYZ OFTEN SHOT/FIRED AT ALLIED FORCES GIVING THEM AID TO SURVIVE AGS GERMANY.
