Tweedledee and Tweedledum – Russia and China – IT WAS NOT US YOUR HONOR Tweedledee and Tweedledum have obviously forgotten their Nations integral part in the world economic collapse. Russian and Chinese combined National greed and self-interest have had at least equal part if not more in contributing to the current economic mess. Dear Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao China has manipulated the Chinese currency in a successful attempt to move the worlds manufacturing base from the US and other industrialised nations, as well their wealth into China, and thereby reducing the US and other Nations to their current decrepit industrial States. What has happened is China after manipulating currencies to derive advantage over other Nations has positioned itself in such a way that it can afford to suddenly reduce production. The rest of the world is forced into recession. The rapid decrease in production forces the price of raw materials and other goods into a nose dive and the distressed companies are now open to takeover or at least influence via significant shareholdings and/or financial support. Who needs tanks. Did Putin blink when the price of oil more than trebled putting sever economic pressure on the rest of the world? The reason for Putin going into Georgia was simply to control energy supplies to Europe. As well the disruption of energy supplies to Europe does not appear to have helped the world economic circumstance? Russian financial prudence – get real. Tweedledee and Tweedledum try and change your Nations approach from self-interest to enabling the independence others first, history will reflect much more kindly on your efforts.

I never thought I'd agree with a statement from China and Russia.

And they are unquestionably correct.
