Mao ... not too friendly toward USSR>> I remember there was a time when the Poles joked that they would like to share a border with China, less the USSR in the middle :0) I think the Poles are about to relearn a harsh lesson during their coming out party in the desert, for having forgotten history. <<rest of the world ... forced to erect ... wall against ... China or be forced to go through the social changes beyond imagination ... Total Chaos>> ... will make no difference, because the 300-year long Chinese accident is over and done with. All will revert to the way it was meant to be, and the world will be saved, for the better. This new world will welcome countries that want to participate on own volition, and where the participants will thrive. The wall builders will descend back into abysmal depth of forever irrelevancy. Forget about the world saving itself from China. Try wrapping a concept around China saving the world. It will be a new world, a fair world, and a world where the weak are not bothered and the strong not troubled. Luckily for this new world, the world of ancient and Confucius China of the old was mostly a harmonious world, where different cultures lived side-by-side, mostly at peace, unlike the then concurrent world dominated by the other empire, Rome, in the west, that was constantly at war. History will be our silent witness, and see that the time for peaceful planetary explorations, amazing and confounding inventions, diligent and productive work, family values, education, and art will once again be. The world of superstition, thievery, genocide, exploitation, and asymmetric warfare will not last, because TeoTwawKi is coming, not in the form of chaos, but in the manner of harmonious order.
