The BRIC & The SCO

The BRIC & The SCO

(Global Pulse: June 19, 2009) The BRIC and the SCO -- ever heard of them? "The most dangerous institution the American people have never heard of" is the SCO, some have said -- and it just got more dangerous. The Shanghai Cooperation Organization played host to the world's top four economic dynamos -- Brazil, Russia, India and China, known as BRIC. The U.S. media, allergic to international conferences without Americans in attendance, continue to miss this important story.
