It turns out that putting our entire defense on
carrier battle groups is probably a bad idea. It turns out that a small boat, which could be loaded with
explosives, can reach a nuclear carrier
unhindered by the vast flotilla that accompanies it, even if the British are trying to help.
Of course, the chicoms want us to stop providing
real weapons (not the extra-fluffy teddy
bears being issued to our soldiers) to
Taiwan. The last thing China wants is for someone to shoot back when they invade. This is why they started their global conquest campaign with pacifistic
Tibet, and backed down from
Vietnam.
Goe, thinking Rumsfeld should be fired.
