In 2003, I was writing my first book on Generational Dynamics, and I
wrote extensive histories of China and Russia, going back centuries.
I didn't say so explicitly at that time, but it was clear to me that
Russia and China were each other's historic enemies and would continue
to be, and that a Russian (Orthodox Christian civilization)
generational crisis war would be against against China (Mongolians)
and Sunni Muslim countries (Islamic civilization), and not against
Europe (Western civilization).
Nothing that's happened in the last 50 years, or even the last 100
years, changes that. In particular, some silly Sino-Russian Pact is
as relevant as a teaspoon of water compared to a tsunami.
