Good.
I guess this is why we need to invest 102931203921 gazillions money into the military and do more austerities
Rule 1. When you’re having political problems at home, create a foreign enemy to distract the population.
Also, a foreign threat tends to gather the citizens together. Our post-9/11 unity allowed them to create the Homeland Security Gestapo.
common fascist tactic.
Also a common liberal tactic.
The enemy is both weak and strong.
It’s not like China has to lift a finger, the US government is doing a fine job of destroying the country.
inshallah
Therefore we need to cut all non-essential government spending, for example everything that isn’t defense spending, and reallocate it to defense spending so we can overwhelm China’s defenses with wave attacks of billions of big beautiful boats that cost billions to build and only a million to sink
This is both believable, and actually makes me feel safer about world security
Apparently the crucial moment for the US to attack was a few year ago, when they still had naval superiority. They missed their window luckily for us. Thanks to the PRC the US doesn’t get to use SE Asia and Europe as their cannon fodder.
anyway, 30 billion more for Israel
US can’t even beat Ansarallah
I remember how they bragged that the operation against Yemen was the biggest naval operation since WW2.
And they lost that, against country having no navy and no airforce.
That would be so funny.
And so you’re going to reduce the military budget and start approaching diplomacy with an eye for mutual benefit and international cooperation, right?
a trillion into military spending.
Lol sounds like he’s doing a great job in his role checks notes in charge of US defense.
Lol @ the guy in the EE thread talking about how the opposing force in the Millennium 2002 challenge cheated
This has to be one of the funniest wiki pages I’ve read in a while
Over the course of the simulation, heavy constraints were placed on the Red force’s ability to free-play “to the point where the end state was scripted”,[4] resulting in a Blue victory.
At this point, the exercise was suspended, Blue’s ships were “re-floated”, and the rules of engagement were changed; this was later justified by General Peter Pace as follows: "You kill me in the first day and I sit there for the next 13 days doing nothing,
Van Riper’s forces were ordered not to shoot down any of the approaching aircraft.[7][8] Van Riper also claimed that exercise officials denied him the opportunity to use his own tactics and ideas against Blue Force, and that they also ordered Red Force not to use certain weapons systems against Blue Force and even ordered the location of Red Force units to be revealed
The exercise involved both live exercises and computer simulations, costing US$250 million (equivalent to about $437M in 2024)
how dare opfor use an actually effective strategy! they have to fight like we want them to ;__;
When you think about it, the Viet Cong cheated by not using loud bomber planes and napalm.
