We don't need to 'secure' resources; this isn't the 19th century. We just need access and an economy that can generate dollars to buy resources. We have a Navy to maintain the SLOCs.
We don't need to own the resources, just to buy them.

The 'insecurity' with rare earths (necessary for all sorts of high tech stuff) is not that China is the only place they are found, but that we don't mine them ourselves due to pollution regulations.

Yes, we're all too happy to let the Chinese do the polluting.
I love pointing that out to people that "Buy Volts to save the planet!"
You know, the batteries and rare earth compounds used are highly toxic and poisoning China and its people. They get such an deer in the headlights look.

Quit building wind farms and protecting China with American dollars and jobs. One wind mill would build a lot of military hardware and or computers.

Dominance. What a powerful word that is, in a 2012 world that is spinning out of control.
Dominance is a word, a concept, or even better yet; an ideal that projects power and might. We as a Nation need to decide that a shared sense of Dominance is what we need to survive.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
