The new cold war?

Is China attempting to do to the United States what we once did to the Soviet Union?

If China is arming the Iranians, that seems to mirror what we did for bin Laden trying to help him repel the Soviets from Afghanistan.

Instead of conducting an arms race, they are using slave labor and complete ignorance of intellectual property rights to close down American manufacturing and replace them with Walmart import distribution centers.

Just a thought...
