54. China and Russia won't let us go near Iran
"U.S. officials have been increasingly uneasy as China has signed major deals with Iran, Sudan, Burma and Venezuela, all countries that have strained relations with the United States.

While the Bush administration tries to build international pressure against Iran over its nuclear aspirations, China has signed a $70 billion long- term oil and gas supply deal with the Tehran government."

China gets 13% of her oil from Iran and no country can make that up.If her oil is threatened China will become mean really fast. China is behind the scenes protecting Iraq and we can't do a damn thing about it.
