Such warfare involves the use of precision weapons and high-tech information and communications technology.<\/p>\n Sam Perlo-Freeman, a researcher for the peace institute, said China had previously spent relatively little on its military…”…they are certainly seeking to increase their regional and global influence … ” he said…<\/p>\n France narrowly overtook Britain \u2014 last year’s No. 2 \u2014 for third place. Russia climbed to fifth place from seventh in 2007. http:\/\/www.google.com\/hostednews\/ap\/article\/ALeqM5h9vyZCoFpWK24-IY_yXaTkiPIkgAD98MHC400<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n This will be a worrisome development, not just for its neighbors like South Korea and Japan, but also for nations throughout the world.<\/p>\n There is apparently coming of a time of a joint Asian military force that will probably include Russia, China, India, and many of the remaining nations of the Orient.<\/p>\n This concept of joint Asian military involvement is confirmed in the Book of Revelation. Notice the following:<\/p>\n 13 Then the sixth angel sounded: And I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God, 14 saying to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, “Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates.” 15 So the four angels, who had been prepared for the hour and day and month and year, were released to kill a third of mankind. 16 Now the number of the army of the horsemen was two hundred million<\/strong>; I heard the number of them. 17 And thus I saw the horses in the vision: those who sat on them had breastplates of fiery red, hyacinth blue, and sulfur yellow<\/strong>; and the heads of the horses were like the heads of lions; and out of their mouths came fire, smoke, and brimstone. 18 By these three plagues a third of mankind was killed\u2013by the fire and the smoke and the brimstone which came out of their mouths(Revelation 9:13-18).<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Only China, and possibly India and others in Asia (which may align themselves with China and Russia against the European Empire), are capable of fielding a two hundred million man army. Thus, Revelation appears to be discussing an Asian role in the end-time prophecies.<\/p>\n Spending more on its military will allow China to fulfill its role in that and other prophecies.<\/p>\n Some articles of possibly related interest may include:<\/em><\/p>\n China, Its Biblical Past and Future, Part 1: Genesis and Chinese Characters<\/a> This article provides information showing that the Chinese peoples must have known about various accounts in the Book of Genesis up until their dispersion after the Tower of Babel.
