IRAN - VENEZUELA
It's been long time Iran has close links with Cuba and Venezuela. However, increasing the number of left leaders in Latin America and the increasing of their frustration with Washington has given Iran an opportunity to expand its influence in the area.
And it is so obvious to us, how the arena of "friendship" between the countries --- which I dubbed them as the main figures of the War Theater, (if the world was a giant stage where they competed with very real action based on the scenario... ahhh I dunno who the director is, but I believe that scenario is not written out of the sky) --- is, "Your enemy is my friend!" or, "The friend of my enemy is my enemy!".
When Lee Myung Bak visited China, ehheh .. it was just like when Karzai visited India because he was upset with Pakistan. China is okay with Pakistan, but China is not okay with India. The U.S is upset with China but the U.S. is fine with India. Meanwhile, India and Pakistan .... gosh, I hope they, the brothers will always be peaceful. China was asked to become a mediator for the South and North Korea, that's good, because China is the ally of North Korea, yaaa ... but look at how the relationship between China and Taiwan. Are they okay? No.

U.S.A - CHINA - IRAN
Unlike the U.S. strategy to serve the two enemies at once for several last decade, Obama chose to focus on Asia Pacific, considering China has threatened U.S. allies such as Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. Moreover, the power of Iran in West Asia is worrying the U.S. allies.
Regarding the relations of Russia and China, I'm sure they "love each other" and have promised to be "together forever", at least on this 2012. Their closeness was reflected when they responded to the issue of Iran and Syria.

The Coming Collapse of China: 2012 Edition- By Gordon G. Chang
In the middle of 2001, I predicted in my book, The Coming Collapse of China, that the Communist Party would fall from power in a decade, in large measure because of the changes that accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO) would cause.

It seems, China and the U.S. will avoid an open war in order to maintain the political stability and economy of each country. The U.S. has too much debt to China and China does not want to lose the investment in America.
Both countries will fight behind the scenes as the case of Libya. Learning from the case of Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya, China should no longer "missed" the same event in Pakistan. China regards Pakistan as a "brother" that must be protected, especially if Pakistan falls into the U.S hands and becomes a modern colonial country. The U.S. will easily oversee the China's development, because it is exactly located next to Pakistan. For China, Pakistan is a strategic point to protect its sovereignty, as well as the importance of keeping North Korea to stay afloat for the safety of the Chinese border.
In order to stem the influence of the U.S - where China is surrounded by a more pro-Western country - so China is looking for an opportunity that is still wide open. That is Africa. China has recently budgeted 2.3 billion dollars to help the Ugandan military, especially in infrastructure and several other African countries, such as Kenya.

A R G E N T I N A : Christina Fernandez
Argentine President Christina Fernandez de Kirchner (58) was stated she did not have cancer after thyroid gland surgery on Wednesday, January 4, 2012. The results of postoperative tests showed no cancer cells were found.
"There's no cancer cells are found. Treatment with radioactive iodine will not be done," said spokesman Alfredo Scoccimarro explained the test results postoperatively.
Fernandez was diagnosed with papillary thyroid carcinoma that could potentially became cancerous. Team doctors aware of the difficulties of cancer cells without doing surgery on the thyroid gland.
Currently Fernandes has been released from the hospital and undergoing the process of recovery in her personal residence. Through Scoccimarro, Fernandez thanked. "Thanks for all the attention and support," she said.
Argentina society welcomed the news with joy. Earlier a group of people gathered in front of the Austral University Hospital in the city of Pilar, 60 kilometers from the capital city of Buenos Aires, where President Fernandez had surgery. Carrying Fernandez posters, they prayed together.
Christina Fernandez is one of several Latin American leaders who survived of cancer. Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, President of Paraguay Fernando Lugo and former Brazilian President Luis Inacio Lula da Silva underwent cancer surgery last year. (Shh, Cisca, ... considering Christina, given Amado, ok? Yeah, and then you'll get yelled at your fiancé, again...ehhehehe...

I, myself, as I recalled, during school I was pleased with the school holidays. Holidays were the time of which I was most looking forward to, because... well, to be honest, for me sometimes school was boring. But instead of living and lived a long holiday in the community who liked war, wow... I better went to school! (What the heck do you mean, Cisca? You can't go to school or school holidays because there is war. War? Oh yahh, yes, the war. That's it. I almost forgot that there was once the Libyan war. A war that unwittingly has forgotten the meaning of school for the children. Ah, poor children. Really, my heart would melt easily if all matters were associated with the needs of children, the elderly and infants.
Heh, but don't say that there is no adequate schools in the reign of Gaddafi. Don't blame the dead for the stupidity of people who are still alive. I want to see, from now and beyond, what can be done by the older and smarter Libyan people to send their children to school, so its generation to be intelligent without brutality...
...nyah nyah nyah)

There is no past if we are walking backwards
Based on practical considerations, perhaps it is true that things can change in a day. That a few hours can affect the outcome of all life. And when I did the few hours, such as the ruins of houses that could be saved, broken watches, pictures of charred, scorched furniture, all had to be resurrected from the ruins and examined. Preserved. Given a description. Small events, trivial matters and destroyed were reassembled. Spiked with a new meaning. Suddenly all became the white frame of a story.

The Remnants of Our Kisses are Still in Our Bathroom
Since we came home from our whoosh whoosh whoosh vacation, I feel the winter will last forever for me in 2012. Hmm... actually it does nothing for me, but the saddest thing is, "Should we make love in the snow for a year? Or maybe more than a year?" (Hmm...
it's certainly not fun stuff, Cisca!...). Yeah, you won't understand it, I know for sure. Never mind.
Anyway, last night he was playing this song loud from inside his room. He opened wide his room's door. I shut my bedroom door. I did not lock it, because as far as I know, I knew he would not open it. But I was wrong. He didn't just open my unclosing door, but also entered the room behind that door, into a little space where I was, then took his clothes off and moved this music rhythm to another place into my body. There was no Hello, no Excuse me, no Thank You and/but no Good Bye, too.
Yeah. He's myspouse partner. He is Mr "Always perfect". I didn't have the heart to say that I wanted him to shut my bedroom's door from outside. Let alone I didn't have the heart, even I couldn't believe that I would greet him first in the next morning, "Good morning, dahling." A better greeting than I thought, even without a good morning kiss at all. He didn't answer my greeting but then he kissed me in the morning with a night kiss. I didn't know who was better between us at that time. Maybe I am, but I love him. Maybe he is, but I feel he loves me.
The problem was a breeze. If Obama won the 2012 election, I told him, "Dahling, let's get married!"
