1NC-Interlake-EmbargoTournament: Tahoma | Round: 1 | Opponent: Interlake | Judge: Hell-Man China DA This week's summit meeting between Chinese President Xi Jinping and President Barack Obama offers a historic opportunity to improve U.S.-China relations At the political level, US engagement with Latin American ¶ countries has impacted the ability of the PRC to develop ¶ military and other ties in the region. Hanging over the relationship is the larger question of whether, as China grows in economic and ¶ military power, the United States and China can manage their relationship in such a way as to ¶ avoid debilitating rivalry and conflict that have accompanied the rise of new powers in previous ¶ eras. While nuclear weapons exist, there remains a danger that they will be used. Politics Political capital is key to passage-their internal link answers don’t assume the shutdown Florida Sen. Marco Rubio (R) said that President Obama’s handling of the 16-day government shutdown has made the path to reforming the country’s immigration system more difficult. …….. Plan saps Obama’s capital Despite the basic intransigence of US policy towards Cuba, in recent years, Key to the economy ……. The CP solves all of the case-- Recent executive order proves Obama can use XO’s to further economic engagement Gradualism CP An immediate lift of the embargo is unpopular– an incremental removal of the embargo is much more realistic and avoids the link to politics ……. Relations Indeed, diplomats and observers on both sides of the Florida Straits say American and Cuban law enforcement officers, scientists, disaster relief workers, Coast Guard officials and other experts work together on a daily basis, and invariably express professional admiration for each other.¶ …………. Lifting the embargo would crush US-Latin American Relations – Turns case In the end, though, it's still Fidel Castro and his brother Raul who'll decide whether there'll be a thaw in ties with the United States -- or not ………. Cyber war attacks are impossible and ineffective …… No impact to cyber war- empirics prove low probability and small impacts Throughout the book Rid, a professor at the King’s War College in London, seeks to demolish the hysterical, conventional wisdom about the profound impact of so-called cyber war. Keystone species are myths In the 1970s, this thinking generated an outpouring of eco-"philosophy for the common man, as exemplified by the lovely vision that "everything is connected to everything else Loss of Bio-D won’t collapse the environment Ecologists have long maintained that diversity is one of nature’s greatest strengths, but new research suggests that diversity alone does not guarantee strong ecosystems.

New tech means farmers will always produce more food—SOLVES FAMINE One in three and a half billion chance of a successful attack WASHINGTON -- There is an "almost vanishingly small" likelihood that terrorists would ever be able to acquire and detonate a nuclear weapon, one expert said here yesterday (see GSN, Dec. 2, 2008).

2. Venezuela will say no --- anti-Americanism is too entrenched Venezuela won’t engage—we can’t build relations But in the words of one senior official, the outreach to Caracas has been a "rocky road."
