Interestingly enough those not signed to the NPT are having very little pressure brought to bear on them, such as Isreal/India/Packistan. Perhaps the NPT has become pointless and the UK should remove itself from the list of signatories and go about our own nuclear defence policies without the interfeance from others

People love to worship the Chinese and hail them as the "next America," but reality is if anyone is to dethrone America it would be the Indians.
i think the bankers are doing an excellent Job of "dethroning America" mate. at the recent G20 summit they were openly talking about a new world reserve currency and the end of the dollar. and also, what's happened to Americas industrial heartland?
and dont forget, while Tim Geithner was in China giving Chinese students a lecture about the dollar being safe and would recover, he was laughed at by the students, obviously they weren't as eager to swallow his bull as the rest of the world:
