There is a big push in Congress right now to increase our military hardware in response to China’s doing so. One issue we face is as China brings new ships etc online our existing ones will be set for scrap.

China has more armored fighting vehicles (46,000 to 4,788) more artillery (9,726 to 3,269) more self-propelled artillery (1,710 to 950), more rocket artillery (1,770 to 1,197). And China has more tanks.
So China has a HUGE advantage on land.
On the oceans, China has more frigates (51 to 0), corvettes (32 to 0) and submarines (73 to 70). US has more destroyers (85 to 32).
USA still has the advantage in the air, with 12,100 aircraft to China's 3,729.
US has more multi-role aircraft: 2,062 to 567, more attack aircraft (470 to 300) and more helicopters (5,000 to 1,627).
But China has far more fighter aircraft, 1,199 to 388.
The one major advantage the USA has is having far more aircraft carriers. But with China having three times as many fighter aircraft, how long would it tale them to sink those carriers?
China also shot a satellite with a missel from earth.
Lyle, my point has nothing to do with religion or how they want the women covered. On a personal note yes I think it is much more modest and appealing when a woman is covered then when she walks around with everything hanging out disrespecting herself or husband (if she ever will find a decent one with her feminist nudity) that I think you should be against based on what you have talked about femininity no?
My point rather was about a country going into another country and taking out a leader that it does not like and putting in another one. And that's what the United States did with mossadegh.
You reap what you sow. Hence the Islamic revolution and the problems now
With Ships and Missiles, China Is Ready to Challenge U.S. Navy in Pacific
https://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/world...cid=spartanntp
A centerpiece of this strategy is an arsenal of high-speed ballistic missiles designed to strike moving ships. The latest versions, the DF-21D and, since 2016, the DF-26, are popularly known as “carrier killers” since they can threaten the most powerful vessels in the American fleet long before they get close to China.
The DF-26, which made its debut in a military parade in Beijing in 2015 and was tested in the Bohai Sea last year, has a range that would allow it to menace ships and bases as far away as Guam, according to the latest Pentagon report on the Chinese military, released this month. These missiles are almost impossible to detect and intercept, and are directed at moving targets by an increasingly sophisticated Chinese network of radar and satellites.
The United States is like Joe Louis when he fought Rocky Marciano. The United States is like Jack Johnson when he fought Jess Willard. The United States is a dilapidated out-of-shape living in the past wishful thinking kind of thing. The typical Chinese or Korean or Russian or Egyptian Soldier would kick the living s*** out of any American Soldier.
that's because the people from those countries are eating real food and doing real exercises but American soldiers are eating GMO garbage and getting excused from difficult basic training because it is racism or bigotry against fat people
disrespecting her husband? That’s pathetic. Why don’t you wear a sheet over your face? unlike those women you’d actually look better and like less of a twit.Quote:

Says the man who appears in just his shorts working out in a public park ;D Come on man. They don't own each other and so surely have the right to choose individually what is appropriate to wear. If men are going to look at women in bikinis etc sexually and women look at men in budgie smugglers in the same way then surely there is nothing to worry about. What is good for the goose is good for the gander.Quote:

What a foul post 😀. I'm not saying people don't have the right the dress however they want and if they want to risk the nudity laws they can also go outside completely naked and risk being arrested of course everyone has the right to do that
All I am saying is that there used to be something sacred about the privacy of spouses and now they're they are on full display for the entire public to see their sex organs and Ogle at lust after and that goes for the men and the women by the way just to be clear
Master said.."Where"?
Pathetic to change the goalposts like that. Define semi naked? I think most people dont mind in the slightest if others find their spouse nice to look at. Where are sexual assaults(including amongst couples) more common? countries under sharia, or those where women can dress how they like?Quote:

Then again if your spouse has enormous tits, and goes out with you wearing a see-through blouse or a plunging neckline showing tons of cleavage, you'd better expect some stares.
sexual assaults and rapes are much more common in Western countries where women walk around semi-naked and you know what semi-naked means so don't be disingenuousQuote:
