Could an alliance with China be in Israel's future
With America’s support for Israel in the world of International diplomacy cooling under the Obama administration, it would make sense for Israel to focus on strengthening its ties with other power states. China, may be a prime candidate, as its relationship with Israel has on the whole steadily strengthened over the twenty years since diplomatic relations were established. “You are our most important friend,” Israel could be seen to be saying to Obama, as a statement of independence, “but not our only ally.”Read the whole thing.
Just over a month ago, three Chinese warships docked in Israel as members of the People’s Liberation Army Navy began a 5-day stay, to celebrate diplomatic relations between China and Israel. Three months prior, IDF Chief of Staff Benny Gantz toured the country, meeting with Chinese military and political officials.
It is important to note however that China’s position on Iran has been appalling, as a major Iranian oil client the country has been active in stalling sanctions efforts. China has backed some sanctions though, which as the New York Times reported, may have been a product of Israeli lobbying.
I don't see Israel having the kind of relations with China that it had with the United States until January 2009. But I can see our government trying to use China as a foil to show the US that we too have other options. I'd put Russia in the same category.

Eyes rolling...
Getting all lined up with the marcuse marxist/sharia enterprise. Complaining about the U.S.'s "new" coldness while campaigning for the cause of it, Obama, and accepting his $billions. And getting tangled up with Red China and Russia. I'm sure this will turn out well for Israel. /s
Looking to Israel for leadership *away* from marxism and *toward* Torah Economics.
Whatever.
One crucial strategic technology which Israel has and China desperately wants now is cutting edge metallurgy and materials science used in high performance jet engines. PLA combat aircraft still use Russian engines because China has not mastered the science of designing and building the specialized metals that go into them. This is something that Israel happens to be world beating in as in the company that Warren Buffet purchased a few years ago.
China and Russia (and Cambodia's Pol Pot people!) slaughtered, starved, etc. millions of people to get their way.
The Obama Leftists *say* that they will be better. But in case the Israelis who have allowed their images to be used in the Obama Green Train Robbery and Energy Shut-Off, and even Israeli govt people in Obama ads... if you think you are different or they are different in terms of Communist Deatheating, you would be wrong.
Libya has been one example. And, even more stark, look what they've done in the U.S.'s neighbor Mexico. And this is only part of the story... There's more that Hillary has done that hasn't risen to the Univision airwaves yet. I've been putting this stuff as cautionary info on Israel Matzav for over a year. They've advertised that the whole show is up, but it looks like it is only the first 9 minutes. So, where is the rest? In Spanish with English subtitles. Any Israeli who thinks the Obama Way is going to be good for the Jews needs to watch this. Blood washing up on the curbs... And the Obama Team not only doesn't care, but is trying to bury the info:
