Choice of comments by Arabic readers of the Al-Arabiya article:
وااااااااو
الجمجمة والعظام ؟! في الحقيقة انتابني بعض الخوف عند وصولي بالقراءة لآخر المقال ؟!ـ
Wow ! - Skull and Bones ?! [ Freemasonry ] in reality, somehow alarming [with its] nouveau riche separatism [as could be read in] the recent article ?!
الحمد لله على نعمه الاسلام
Allah be praised, he is comfortable with Islam.
John Kerry's stiff appearance is probably related to health problems.
[The above picture show has been found on the internet years ago. If
Kerry has overcome cancer, he is expected to stand such nonsense.]

Today, January 26, People's Network, the online service of
People's Daily, Beijing, came with the following headlines regarding political changes in the U.S. Department of State:
美参议院“面试”候任国务卿
The U.S. Senate "facing a test" with the appointment of the Secretary of State.
克里认为中美是竞争者而非敌手
Kerry considers China and the U.S.A. being competitors not enemies.
The following text has been extracted from the original article of People's Daily:
新美国安全中心学者凯·金和雅各布·斯托克斯认为，在对华关系上，克里还应回答的问题是，美中关系中主要竞争因素到底是什么，这些竞争因素究竟属互不信任，抑或缘于各自的根本利益。克里还应考虑，美国是否应该修正其“亚太再平衡”战略，以回应中国不断增强的不安全感。
Kay King and Jacob Stokes, scholars of the Center for a New American Security are considering that in the frame of relations with China, Kerry needs to answer another question: To what end will lead the major elements of competition in U.S.-Chinese relations. These competition elements [can be] exactly of a kind not to be trusted, or can be the reason of fundamental profit related to every goal. Kerry should also consider whether or not America ought to revise its strategy of "another peaceful balancing of Asia", such responding to China's feeling of missing safety which is constantly rising.

People's Daily / People's Network on January 27, 2013:
日本改装后的“鹰眼2000”预警机(资料图)
Japan's "Hawkeye 2000" newly equipped early warning aircraft.
日本调集预警机24小时监控钓鱼岛 防中国飞机
Japan concentrating early warning aircraft for 24 hours in order to watch and control Diaoyu Island and to defend against Chinese aircraft.
Editor's Note:
U.S. manufacturer Northrop Grumman’s E-2C Hawkeye is a carrier-capable “mini-AWACS” aircraft, designed to give long-range warning of incoming aerial threats. Secondary roles include strike command and control, land and maritime surveillance, search and rescue, communications relay, and even civil air traffic control during emergencies. ...
"It looks a lot like the last generation E-2C Hawkeye 2000 upgrade on the outside – but inside, and even outside to some extent, it’s a whole new aircraft." [Source: Defense Industry Daily, 2013]
The deployment of Japan's Hawkeye 2000 planes in the Diaoyu Island region, disputed between China and Japan, goes together with Shinzo Abe, Japan's newly elected prime minister and nationalist hardliner, releasing a $226 bn stimulus package in the middle of an economic crisis. However, his announcement of temporary difficulties that will soon be overcome makes shareholders' value jump again. [Source: Al-Jazeera on January 28, 2013]
