Chinese Economy About to Collapse?

I don't think Xiongmao is wrong when he says China doesn't have any friends. China has a lot of business partners and client states (Myanmar, North Korea, etc..) but it has no true ideological or cultural allies. If let's say Britain were to enter a war there are plenty of anglophone countries who would join on Britain's side simply out of ideological, political, and cultural reasons. Even when most of the world despised the U.S. entering into Vietnam or the Iraq war you had plenty of anglophone countries who secretly supported or even sent troops. An example would be Australians who participated in the Vietnam war.


China in this regard is very isolated. You wouldn't see majority ethnic Chinese countries like Singapore or Taiwan joining China in their wars anytime soon.

I disagree. When geopolitical balances are at stake, alliances and "friendships" are formed almost on the spot. China would quickly form a block including Russia, some decent Islamic military powers - Iran and Pakistan and perhaos even that Nato freelancer, Turkey - perhaps even India. Instead of asserting how isolated China is, one should really ponder on how quickly the US of A are falling out of love with key allies in Europe and Asia. A few more shit moves from Obummer and they will only have Israel to count on.

Ah...people have such short memories as you know...remember how the Great One was going restore
respect for America in Europe with his "sophisticated world view"? Of course, the best way for Obama to do this was to spy on and betray European allies and act like they are too stupid to notice. Recent polls seem to indicate that regard for the USA is at all time lows in Europe. Obummer!

Some of Germany's Merkel's appearances with Obama were priceless. She gets caught giving these sidelong glances that say...Holy $hit! I can hardly believe the USA elected this idiot!
