Perhaps Bob Menzies was a man ahead of his time.

actually, napoleon said china would be the master of the world someday. shouldn't surprise anyone.

everytime hu sits down with bush, i am reminded of the end of 'animal farm': "... and they looked just the same." or something like that.

don't sneer at china, there is more diversity in the chinese communist party than in all the australian parties combined, and chinese get to vote more often than ozzies, for about the same result.

My brothers,

We must strike now!

Before their preparations are complete,

And we still have the advantage of surprise.

A white supremist article.

It was the British who sold opium and forced China to sign the unequal treaties.

There was a time when more than 10 European countries in Peking at the turn of the 20th century, looting the country of its riches and pretending to spread Christianity to China.

It was the British who occupied North America and in the process killed millions of Red Indians. The Anglo Saxons are still there, should they not go back to Europe?

What are the Brits doing in Gibraltar occupying Spanish land? And what are the Anglo-Saxons occupying land belonging to the Argentinians in Malvinas otherwise known as Falklands. The Brits are thousands of miles from mother England.

Britain, and other Europeans colonised countries in Asia, Americas and stole, plundered and looted the riches from these countries. So when are the European countries paying back the billions and billions stolen?

Who was it that planted a Zionist country in the midst of a sea of Arab-Muslim- countries? Under the pretext of exporting democracy to Iraq, Bush, Blair and Howard, the three Anglo-Saxon leaders, destroyed its infrastructure and wilfully caused mayhem in the country by not stopping the carnage between Shias and Sunnis.

The West has not changed and is still as greedy as ever like their colonialist forbears. Today, they steal intellectual property from 3rd world countries, patent it and hope to make money out of it. They are bigger pirates than those whom they accuse.

"Chinas environment which has the worst pollution in the world."

As well as, the worst exploitation. Alright then, who is going to resolve these problems, Bush? Howard?
The US has shipped much of its production to China precisely because of cheap goods obtained from underpaid labour costs and dangerous safety procedures. Pollution is part and parcel of low costs, short cuts, dumping the pollution into the sewers, rivers, sea, along with air pollution to maximise profits. The end of the day is a balance sheet. The US takes in most of of Chinas production, whilst a significant section of workers in the US is kept idle and stagnate. In consequence, the US has the worlds largest debt which is increasing. Billions of dollars are then borrowed daily to keep the economy afloat. With a large section of workers stagnating and wages and living standards being driven downwards which creates enormous social and economic problems, then who is going to buy the goods? The US at one time had 60% of world trade. Sooner or later the US economy is going to collapse and that will affect China the most, as well as the rest of the world.
The problem again and again is economic relations dominate over rational planning, human considerations, and human relations. And that can only be resolved by a socialist solution producing goods for peoples needs not profits.
