China’s Snow Wolves

“BEIJING - China had mobilized a 100,000-strong anti-terrorism force to guard against threats to the Beijing Olympics, the official Xinhua News Agency reported Thursday.

Police commandos, specialist units and regular army troops made up the force, which was activated following a series of drills earlier this month, Xinhua said. It also included the paramilitary Snow Wolf Commando Unit that was tasked with handling terrorist alerts and public unrest during or around the Aug. 8-24 Games, Xinhua said.”

While reading this article I found myself pondering the imminent rise of the rapidly-growing communist Chinese empire, until I got to that last sentence. From then on my thought process switched to bad ass G.I. Joes, awesome killer tanks and stealth assassins. The Snow Wolf Commando Unit? Where do I sign? I gotta hand it to China’s PR people.
