      China and Nigeria agree oil deal

      Posted by Billbar from BBC News

      China has secured four oil drilling licences from Nigeria as President Hu Jintao continues his week-long tour of Africa, his second in three years. China will buy a controlling stake in Nigeria's 110,000 barrel-a-day Kaduna oil refinery and build a railroad system and power stations. Very interesting...

      China's Hu Comes to America

      Posted by Billbar from firedoglake

      President Bush can’t even get the "official" visit from China right. It’s almost as bad as what the Administration has done with the policies of our country in respect to the exporting behemoth that had Hu walking into this country and meeting with Boeing and Microsoft straight out of the gate. Got bucks?

    • Containing China: The US’s real objective

      Posted by Billbar from Los Angeles Times

      Slowly but surely, the grand strategy of the Bush administration is being revealed. It is not aimed primarily at the defeat of global terrorism, the incapacitation of rogue states, or the spread of democracy in the Middle East. The truly commanding objective - the underlying basis for budgets and troop deployments - is the containment of China.

      Dobbs: Hu's visit shows who's in charge

      Posted by Billbar from CNN

      Make no mistake: Our leaders are the fools, and China's leaders are not to be blamed for taking advantage of this administration's commitment to faith-based economic theories and so-called free trade that permits the Chinese access to the world's richest consumer market while China denies our businesses access to its emerging market.

    • Shattering the China Dream

      Posted by Billbar from Washington Post

      Those who were told by the Chinese media that they have constitutional and legal rights are painfully disabused of such fantasies when they seek to shed light on social and religious issues the state prefers to keep in the dark.

    Hacker Uncovers Chinese Olympic Fraud

    One of the many tragedies of the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina three years ago was the fact that insurance companies used the event to systematically deny claims, leaving victims further in desperate straits. That shouldn’t happen following any natural disaster, and even though the immediate storm effects did not cause as much damage as predicted, there are sure to be plenty of claims for flood damages throughout the Midwest and along Gustav’s path. If you or someone you know has been denied an insurance claim related to Gustav: that would be a site you should visit.

    Amanda Beard Nude Olympic Anti-Fur Protest Shutdown

    After watching an appalling video of stray cats and dogs being stuffed into wire cages like sardines, dropped off the side of trucks, and skinned for their fur, it's easy to see why Amanda Beard felt the need to shed light on the situation... hope it reduces the suffering and grim fate of future animals.

    Hacker Uncovers Chinese Olympic Fraud

    This is typical of how the IOC has bowed very low to China in every way, regarding these Olympics.  From lax to a lack of, enforcement of even the mildest of prerequisites China agreed to in order to secure Beijing as the host city, to staying mum while China stops athletes from competing based on their politcal beliefs, the IOC have shown what they are really about: the money!
