#2 Ah, go embrace that dragon Putie. NB - the only people who invaded and occupied Russia* were the Mongols from the east.

*after the Nordic Rus put roots in.

#3 Who cares? There are no customers here. It's the middle of nowhere.

It's amazing how China can get people to panic over nothing.

#4 A couple hundred thousand Chinamen on my border would have me concerned. You know they're up to no good.

#6 Germans, Poles, French and Germans did not occupy Russia...not for very long anyway. You can invade it but to occupy Russia for any length of time you must have massive numbers of troops, the kind of numbers that only Asians can bring.

#7 A Chinese takeover of the Russian Far East + most of Siberia is not "nothing," Herb. Geopolitically, that would make them a global rival to us. We need a strong Russia to contain China.
