   Yeah, how would this "China card" work?  China is going to take our   
   words seriously?  The only thing China might be willing to accept in   
   exchange for her alliance with Russia is a) turn our Asian Pivot back   
   and b) cease and desit further support of separatist activities in   
   Xinjiang and Tibet.  Part a) would mean stop its covert encouragement   
   of Japan's militarist revival.  You think the US would be willing to   
   go to this length to punish Putin?  I think not!
