Ya know, the Chinese really aren't our friends...

Just another reason not to buy crap from WalMart.

money quote...

"....(China) was behind hundreds of attacks on U.S. companies, focusing increasingly "on companies involved in the critical infrastructure of the United States — its electrical power grid, gas lines and waterworks." Nervous yet?"

I think sometimes we spend to much time worrying about countries that have little strategic interest to us and not enough time worrying about one that does.

China only owns about 8% of our debt. Around $1.2 trillion. A lot of money but not enough to dictate a damn thing to us. We got their money. They want it back so they will spend more money to buy farmland?

Google better links yourself. It's less than 10%. It use to be a lot higher but we encouraged then to sell their stake to Japan and other pro-western countries. They were happy too. China wants the $ to remain high for their own selfish interests.

Taking this to its own thread

So now you are quoting world net daily as a "real" resource?

Nope, don't read WND. However, dissing the source is not an argument. My post on China buying up US farmland was part sarcasm and part projection should any foreign country hold our debt. Just a warning about those dangers. Meanwhile, the central banksters own us and Europe, currently. Sovereignty is one thing that can be used as collateral. There's no denying such possibilities.
