China's decisions are always first given from the perspective of a fellow tyrant, as the Communist Party is a totalitarian government. For this reason, China will go to great lengths to protect any dictator who seeks help, from Myanmar to Cuba, Venezuela to North Korea, Sudan to Zimbabwe, Vietnam to Libya . Whether seeking arms or protection, money or succor, the world's worst tyrants can always rely on China to lend a hand (with Russia not too far behind). Those who like to bash the U.S. are usually simply reflecting envy, and they will be hard pressed to explain why democratic nations have the highest standard of living, and tyrannies do not. For China to step onto the world stage, it must first rid itself of the tyrant in its midst. The most telling statement about the CCP's malignant intent is its policy that the Chinese people need to be told what to do, and that freedom is not for China. Just ask Jackie Chan. The bad news is that the CCP has intentions to spread this system throughout the world. By the way. Freedom house lists the countries the most "unfree" in the world. (http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0930918.html) Six of the eight listed are as follows: Cuba Libya Myanmar (Burma) North Korea Somalia Sudan It is no coincidence that this is also a list of "The best friends of China." Think about it. How can a country pretend to be a global contributor if that is true?

I believe all country should have the right to defend themselves against attack and be responsible for their military power.

As a result, we can clearly refer what is currently happening in Iran and China to the U.S stealthy hand there. All these critical turbulences weakens both countries, which will allow U.S to gain control again, as what it did in Iraq, Afghanistan, but failed in Lebanon because of the existence of the Glorious Hezbollah, men of resistance!

Iranians are very smart people, far smarter and educated then arabs and israelis. Sanction will not work on them. Its time for new open minded approach and big time trade with iran.

The stick side of the West put more pressure on Iranians but the other side of this stick was the West loosing more and more control of Iran economy and Asian companies taking the place. There was eight years Iran/Iraq War supported by West against Iranians plus sanctions. However, if since 1979, the West policy was invest and control Iran economy, they had much more power to even change regime in Iran. Overall western officials should learn that old carrot and stick policies and military attacks are the old expired policies of Hitler and second World War, which is not working in 21st century or if West try to push it to work, it will lead to third World War with same story of Hitler being repeated for West.

Set aside the international stigmas, and do what all americans heard the current president of the states hint at doing. Service in a time of war is synonomous with a call to arms. Just do it already. Iran has no intention of acting on the jewish population within it's country or beyond it's borders. Jews are a non-issue. The U.S. of A. and it's associates should just declare a draft.
