For those who do not understand the Chinese, think of the Chinese as eastern jews. Now multiply till you get 1.2 billion.....\n\nChinese put a huge emphasis on education, have a strong culture of their own, love money (strengths in trade and finance), strong family ties & it is hard to really break into their social circles. \n\nAdding to that, they have a history of innovation (compass, printing press, clock, seismograph, paper, gunpowder etc) and are now trying to go upmarket with their products. It is very likely that these people have the will and the ability to rule the economic world....perhaps not alone, but they will definitely be one of the major players.

China, followed by India. 3rd place according to my estimates, should be Indonesia followed by the US.

NO BUDDY  these amricans are just hoax and humours they know nothing about being real gangster or mafia...till 1999 ppl thought the only dangerous ppl are italian mafias or russian because they are always portrayed in movies and big books written on them ...And then entered the terrorist the Taliban from afghan thats when they realised what terrorism is and real killing is and big international crime is..American ganster or so called gangsta are nothing but poser jus singing song selling drugs in the club..Is a great deal for them ..I think ur from India and in India if its mafia means real big man where the interpol is lookin for the person . And u can never make out an hardcore gangster in the midst of people walking in bombay cause they dont show off what they are ..because in India the police first hit and then talk or if he's being too naughty then he's encountered..These are nothing compared to the asian gangster only they are not popular in western countries...and always underground.its called the MUMBAI UNDERWORLD....which even controls   the bollywood and finances of major countries of the world...so the gangsta ur talkin bout is not gangsta they are called cheap posers,who invite trouble on themselves....

one source ws from the former soviet union...after that fell apart many former soviet officials started peddling off their stuff like a yard sale on the black market.  I would guess a lot comes to them through Syria who gets them from russia and china.  You are right Jennifer.  There are international arms dealers who don't care who they sell to...some have lived right here in the U.S.  In wwII there were people who were American citizens who actually sold equipment to Hitler.  I'm sure it continues and that is a disgrace.

All true so far, and they've only scratched the surface, MUCH more to come out before the end of this investigation.\n\nLike everything involving big money, someone will always find a way to corrupt, especially in Italy, home of the Mafia and corrupt government since before the end of tha Roman Empire!!

I think Jack Bauer will be kidnapped by the Chinese government.\nThat would be a lot more impressive if I'd typed it on Sunday, wouldn't it?

For me Euador or Australia\nbut really you can't call Czech rep a dark horse, They stand high in the world ranking And they were giving some pretty good odds (or so i think)

who cares about the mexicans, the chinese are holding more U.S. currency than any other country in the history of the world, i'd be more worried about them deciding we're not chinese enough (since they pretty much own the U.S.)

Three 6 Mafia? I know they're from Memphis but I'm not sure about this one.  Maybe even the Ying Yang Twins "Whistle While You Twirk" but they're not from Memphis.

Hahaha! I like the spirit but perhaps this should be answered by someone unbiased and neutral.. that's me!\n\nWhile the USSR was truly mighty once upon a time, currently the strongest military force on the planet is the USA, whether you like it or not. Russia still has a formidable arsenal but they are certainly not as powerful as the US of A. Also, their economy will not be able to bear the strain of a full fledged modern conflict and so the USA it is again.

He was murdered and by someone that didn't care how many innocents die with him as a result. Minimum reparations would be financial damages claims to all victims and a signed pledged to never touch another person in the UK, other than that it's like a flea biting a dog. They could make political waves, break off any funding/economic ties to Russia (something Russia has never been shy about asking the West for more of). BUT it's very disturbing that this harms Russia  and Putin more than it helps Russia or Putin, which makes me naturally question if they were set up by a third party who will benefit from the fallout? Like the Chechen rebels, or maybe "right wing" communist hardliners in Russia or China? Response must be careful and measured, so as not to reward those who orchestrated this.

It wasn't.  Clinton inherited a clean slate from his predecessor.  The next time go to WalMart and see everthing there made in China, thank BJ Clinton. He made the godless Chinese "most favored trading partners".  He sent your jobs to Mexico(NAFTA), he anmestied 93,000 illegal Mexicans (letting them keep the US jobs they'd already stolen), encouraging the present flood of criminal entrants.
