Hilarious as always, Stonewall. As if my opinion could scare you. My opinion can't take you from your home and incarcerate you, nor can it cause you nor anyone else physical harm.
Millions of Chinese and Russians were killed in the last century by agents of their own governments and millions more by an array of foreign occupying forces. At the end of the First World War occupying armies from France, Great Britain, Japan, the United States and Canada entered Russia. The Germans killed millions of Russians during the Second World War. China was also occupied by foreign powers and millions of Chinese were killed in the course of the Sino-Japanese War. Hundreds of thousands of Americans were killed by other Americans during the US civil war. Twenty per cent of the population of North Korea was killed by the United States during the Korean War according to General Curtis Lemay. I know that you are a clever satirist, I just don't see the punchline this time.
Russia's military is already isolated. Their Navy is useless. China does not have a blue water Navy. China is actually benefiting greatly under the current world financial system.
I do agree with you that the main way to be an enemy of the U.S. you must deviate from the financial system that is dominated by the U.S.. The so called Free Market World Economy. Globalization.
It used to be that ideology would create enemies for the U.S.. Like Communism & Nazism. That is not necessarily true anymore. Even Radical Islamic States are not enemies of the U.S. because of their ideology, what I mean by that is, well here is an example... Look at Iran. Iran is our enemy not because of their ideology or religion. It is our enemy because Iran has an agenda that tries to upset our version of economics, the World economy, Globalization. Iran does not want to play the game. They have their own game and wish to have it expand and dominate. We say we are against their human rights in their own country and their export of terror... and I'm sure we do not like those things but that alone would not make you an enemy. Proof of that is our relationship with Saudi Arabia. They have the same type of human rights issues and they export terror, much more than Iran does. But, Arabia plays the economic game. They go along with the world economy. They do not make waves economically.
The basic reality is, if you play America's economic game... you are in, if you don't you are out. That is what matters in American Foreign Policy. Not ideology, not human rights, just the money...
And, what is even worse is that this hurts America.
