Even though its unlikely but higher temperatures vis-a-vis China is a good overall strategy to ensure US plays the role we want it to.Esoterichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15502559895051924669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4704148890264843595.post-76860799569855721772010-12-09T06:55:54.252-08:002010-12-09T06:55:54.252-08:00regarding Vietnam - some analysis from BBC - http:...regarding Vietnam - some analysis from BBC - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-11879731muralihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06331087627514700166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4704148890264843595.post-63092057786314222852010-12-09T02:33:38.723-08:002010-12-09T02:33:38.723-08:00Excellent decision by India!

So if the Chinese would have threatened in private, India would also have boycotted?? Hope our HUGE guilty conscience does not come in our way, lest we go groveling back to China asking forgiveness for this 'momentary lapse of sanity'. Lets remain steadfast and proud of our decision.Wikihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11161119866067734752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4704148890264843595.post-76004082617052408262010-12-09T00:12:17.427-08:002010-12-09T00:12:17.427-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Ashokhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04005929333981699405noreply@blogger.com
