Russian President Putin is taking a lead role in putting together the most powerful coalition of regional and superpowers in the world. The coalition consists of India, China, Russia and Brazil. This will challenge the superpower supremacy of America as well as the European Union. The Chinese are concerned about American and European influence over the world. So is India, Brazil and Russia. Russians need Brazil badly. Brazil is in South America in the American corridor. According to Startfor, a strategic think tank, when Russian President Vladimir Putin visits Brazil Nov. 21-23, he likely will talk economic issues with Brazilian President Luiz Inacio "Lula" da Silva.

plans ready in case Bush was re-elected. Britain, France and China have an agreement to be ratified with Iran. The EU seems to be watching very warily everything that's happening in the U.S. It a;so appears that China is very anxious to have allies in Latin America too.

I may be getting totally paranoid but I think if bushco try attacking another country the shit will truly hit the fan.

activities of Russia, the EU, China and South America. There has definitely been a flurry of activity to sign agreements re trade, oil, etc. It is the building of a new alliance that will bring back a balance of power.

Economically, these countries, bound together, are a greater economic powerhouse than the US.

"good guy" while the US is increasingly perceived as the world's "Bad guy" thanks to Bush's arrogant imperialism.

Personally, I think Ronald Reagan would kick George Bush's ass from here to eternity for this drastic, tragic turnaround.

Lula is a sharp guy and he wants Brazil to be a superpower to one degree or another.

What happened to all that? I guess Shrub can make anyone hold hands.

The fact is it is in their interests to partner against the US. Does the bush admin think they are the only one to use the 'common enemy' mantra? The difference is, it isn't working for bush outside the US, it IS working in the rest of the world.
