A Central Asian Game

Fire of Liberty

Here's Ariel Cohen's take on the United States and it's entrance into "The Great Game" in Central Asia. While the Russians and Chinese are using strong-arm tactics, threats and business deals to get the nations in the region to fall into their fold, the US is offering it's ears and promoting democracy thus gaining an upper-hand in the long run. I have a strong feeling the US has surmounted the mountains that surround these nations with their offerings of freedom, democracy and friendship. So keep up the good work Secretary Rice and Rumsfeld.
