And I'm one here on DU that has ALWAYS said beware of Russia. What do people think happened to all the bad guys since the breakup of the Soviet Union? Did they just disappear? No, they began planning for a return and continued to work against the US. And China is no different. But to many here, the US is just the meanest country on earth. We've got our problems, but we're not the major cause of the world's.
