The people of the world are not as bad as people sometimes make them out to be. The main problems are poverty, and hunger, and homelessness, and then bad people who give heroin and other shit to desperate people.
My Grandmother opened Gold mines in Mexico, and they loved her in Mexico, and the whole experience was a good experience for her. And I went to Mexico to help desperate people with Youth For Christ. The main enemy in Mexico is poverty and desperation. If you educate the people, and give them an honest way to earn a living, then they are going to be honest. We need to support education in Mexico, and we need to support trade with Mexico.
Here is what the Bible says...
Psalm 82:3-4 New International Version (NIV)
3 Defend the weak and the fatherless;
uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed.
4 Rescue the weak and the needy;
deliver them from the hand of the wicked.

And on the issue of China, I had a roommate in Malibu who was the daughter of a general in China, there are good people in China who love the USA. China just wants trade and peace it looks like to me. And as the workers of China are paid more money and as they are treated better and as the poverty in China eases, then China will be even more peaceful. The problems always happen when bad people take advantage of desperate people. As the people become more affluent and educated then the more we can have peace.
Education has helped in Colombia too, and strong Coffee sales, etc. As the Colombians are getting educated and as they sell more Coffee then the more peaceful they are becoming. Colombia has had a whole string of great Presidents, and things are going well in Colombia.
The old days of the Russians creating conflicts in Latin America will end as the poverty eases and as trade expands and as the people become more educated. It can all be peaceful like Costa Rica.
The main enemy is poverty, and ignorance, and then the bad people who take advantage of poor and ignorant people. Education and world trade and labor unions are what the world needs.
