Really?

Now feel free to provide resources and links to back up that above statement. And maybe if you missed it in my earlier post;
The US doesn't need to use Selective Availability; they have other means to deprive their enemies of global navigation in war.

It is obvious that countries such as Russia and China are resisting the geopolicy of the U.S. empire. This is not some kind of point or agenda that I want to push, this is an obvious conclusion based on the observation of current events. So just because the "cold war has ended" doesn't mean the U.S. will never be challenged again on the global scale. Nationalistic pride of some U.S. citizens here prevents them from looking dispassionately at the fact that there is a coalition of countries which are now actively challenging U.S. dominance.
And just because India inherited its relationship with Russia from the cold war doesn't make it any less of a current fact that she is sponsoring the development of the Russian military-industrial complex--where as the U.S. would rather see a degradation of it. You think this is not political, but I disagree with you. And only time will tell whether the strength of this relationship will decline or become more comprehensive.

So I guess you
weren't here to discuss the facts afterall, as you claimed. Thanks for sharing your own wishful thinking of some sort of a united alliance against the West; but you still have yet to prove it and hence it remains totally flawed; just like SCO.
