Good :?: :?: , but the fact of the matter is that China supports North Korea, and China already owns a big chunk of the USA, and just the other day it was announced that China is buying up another big chunk of our national debt, this sellout started with the Bush adminstration, and is continueing with the Obama adminstration. Bottom line is that we owe China and we can't make them mad, so we lay off North Korea. We talk tuff and carry a bamboo stick. The only way North Korea can be corraled is if China steps in and that may never happen. North Korea can already wipe out Japan and with their medium range missle and can take out most of Alaska, sure we can shoot them down MAYBE :?: , but the bottom line is that we are afraid to die and they are not, just like the Musliums.
Copied from the most recent news 3/31/09
China recently surpassed Japan to become the largest holder of U.S. Treasury bonds, securities issued by Washington to help pay for its rising debts. Flush with the proceeds of its exports to overseas markets, China has accumulated nearly $2-trillion in foreign currency reserves, about two-thirds of it held in dollars.
Forgot to add, last week the owners of the new NY World trade center, signed it's first lease, it was a 41 yr lease, and it was with China for a Chinese Culture ctr. i think it takes up a whole floor.
