"俄国共产党人士表示，俄共 [尊重私有产权] 主张宗教信仰和新闻媒体自由，并赞同政治竞争。全俄罗斯民意调查中心最近发表的报告说，在12月4日俄罗斯议会大选前夕，有将近30%的民众对俄罗斯共产党拥有好感。

俄罗斯政治学者克涅夫说：“社会上有共识，那就是俄罗斯共产党是目前最大的反对派势力。如果人们对现状不满，通常很多人就会把票投给最大的反对派。而实际的情况是，俄罗斯民众中目前没有任何崇尚共产主义的情绪，这就如同俄共已经不是真正的共产主义政党一样，这其实是一种不满现状的抗议方式。”

"全俄罗斯民意调查中心说，俄共的主要支持者仍然是老年人以及低收入者。这家民调机构预测，由普京和梅德韦杰夫领导的统一俄罗斯党将以55%的得票率赢得大选。

"中国前领导人邓小平1992年时曾经说'中东有石油，中国有稀土。'

英国地质调查局的布拉德沃斯 [Andrew Bloodworth] 说，“跟工业用金属相比，稀土的用量绝对是微乎其微的。去年世界上仅铜矿的开采量是一千七百多万吨，而稀土矿的开采量仅十三、四万吨。只要新开发两个新的稀土矿，整个局面就会完全两样。”

("日本防卫省的统计报道说，今年4月到9月间日本航空自卫队共紧急出动飞机83次，这是为了应对可能侵犯日本领空的中国军机，同比增加了2.5倍。[中国国防部发言人] 杨宇军对此予以否认。他表示，中国军机的活动完全符合有关国际法规。日方也承认，中国军机从未进入到日本领空")

Quote:

"但由于格林纳达2005年与台湾断交并与中国复交，台湾开始向格林纳达追讨债务。美国纽约地方法庭2007年裁决，格林纳达须连本带利向台湾还款2800万美元，相当于格林纳达2009年全年的出口贸易额。

格拉纳达财政部长伯克 [Nazim Burke] 说 "[为台湾作代理的美国] 律师行已经通知了全球所有和格林纳达旅游业相关的航空与邮轮公司，他们支付给格林纳达的资金将被拿走还债。

("Despite a Western arms embargo, China is able to buy Honeywell LTS101-700D-2 engines for its Z-11 light helicopter. Normally, American military grade equipment cannot be sold to China, but the Z-11 is considered a civilian helicopter. This despite the fact that there is a military version, which is armed with four anti-tank missiles, two 12.7mm machine-guns or four rocket launchers.")

("Younger South Koreans are increasingly second-guessing a national goal. They don’t think an eventual unification with North Korea will restore order and salve old wounds; they think it will turn a prosperous country into a chaotic one. More than half of those in their teens and 20s don’t even think unification is necessary — though they’re taught to believe as much starting in fifth grade.")

My comment: There is no need to read the rest.

("Even among Nationalist Party supporters, there is little willingness to accept that they are Chinese, apart from culturally or historically. The Nationalists, who once tried suppressing Taiwan's own cultural identity, are also now trying to portray themselves as Taiwanese, hoping to win the voters' hearts.")
