Is China’s Navy ‘Larger’ Than America’s?
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 8 hours ago
*Sebastien Roblin*
*Chinese Navy, Asia*
On paper, yes, but quality and ship type matter a whole more than just
quantity.
You may have heard recently that China’s People Liberation Army Navy (PLAN)
is rapidly outstripping the U.S. Navy with its larger battle force. Or if
you read a different strip of commentary, that the U.S. Navy’s mighty
warships collectively out-mass its rival across the Pacific by more than two
to one.
Both claims are true but can mislead when presented without context. There
are several different ways to calculate the size of a fleet, each of which

continue to support the analysis contained in that memorandum, this new
memo serves a far more pressing purpose. We wish to draw your attention to
the dangerous situation that exists in Ukraine today, where there is ...

"The Ironic, The Tragic Thing..."
CoyotePrime, Running 'Cause I Can't Fly 2 - 8 hours ago
“One can fight evil but against stupidity one is helpless… I have accepted
the fact, hard as it may be, that human beings are inclined to behave in
ways that would make animals blush. The ironic, the tragic thing is that we
often behave in ignoble fashion from what we consider the highest motives.
The animal makes no excuse for killing his prey; the human animal, on the
other hand, can invoke God’s blessing when massacring his fellow men. He
forgets that God is not on his side but *at *his side.”
