Hello seankenny@blueyonder.co.uk (Sean Kenny),
In reference to your comment:
My guess then is you don't mind a nuclear exchange? China and Israel are both 
nuclear powers. If your Chinese friends succeed, my hope would be that Israel 
will be able to irradiate the Persian Gulf so that the OPEC oil you crave so 
dearly, over the lives of the massacred people in the WTC, and over human 
freedom will be denied you for a while.  
I am not sure the United States would approve of their troops in the Middle 
East, nor come to think of it, would it be so easy for the Chinese to deploy 
themselves, even with international help. I am not sure that their conquest 
if Tibet was such a military success-since it's next door. Nor would they 
seek to be the pawn of the westerners--why should they be? They may, after 
all, wait until the USA is embroiled in a clean-up operation in the Middle 
East, and then use it to "liberate" Taiwan.
