Apparently the US has given a guarantee that any US Naval vessel
that calls in a Chinese port will not be carrying nuclear weapons, at
the request of the Chinese government.  New Zealand has asked for a
similar guarantee, and has been met with the threat of an economic
embargo.  A nice way to treat a valuable ally.

In the sight of the Great Video, and of Varos, who gave his name to
our planet, we pray that you accept the lives of these humble deviants,
in recompense for their sins.  We also pray that you look benignly upon
us, and down upon your people as servants.
