US, China Agree On Something

Other than killing terrorists, of course. To be fair, the US and China are cooperating these days on a number of levels (North Korea, the environment, terrorism) which is more than we dared hope for 3-4 years ago. But the most recent accord between the two nations is that there should not be 4 more UN seats on the Security Council. They differ on the details - China wants Japan off the list and wants more developing countries - the US supports Japan's bid, at least formally, but wants only 2 more members. And neither of them are particularly hot on any new Permanent Members having veto powers.

Well, if neither of them want it, it ain't going to happen...
