    The article describes the real situation of the American fleet. In other words, in reality, an American fleet - is a ridiculous fleet.
    Kim Jong-eun, when hears the boastful statements of American madmen in a white house, laughs at their threats.

    Some feeble-minded, after watching the Hollywood tales of "the strongest fleet in the world", also boast and list the number of American aircraft carriers.... You would see yourself from the outside.... Really, it's very funny.
    The United States for its entire history was able to win only twice - the Cuban builders in Grenada and in Panama. All other wars, where the US participated on its own - were ineptly lost. But American experts continue to talk about "an exceptional nation" with the stubbornness of donkeys.

    Maybe the US government should do better for the American economy, fight unemployment, cut taxes, and not scare the whole world with its decrepit relics? Especially considering the fact that in fact no one has been afraid.

    What do you think about it?

    Trump promised to stop the "warism"
    but he continues it.

    War We Must!


    After Vietnam I use to joke with a friend who also likes to watch the news,
    " Are we at war yet? " For all those years until Iraq 1. We don't count Grenada.

    Still the question today is, " Are we NOT at war yet? "
    Afghanistan War just turned Sweet 16. And Osama bin Laden is still dead.

    One ship does not equal a fleet or a navy.

    It's one of the littoral combat vessels. No one likes those ships. They are almost as much of a boondoggle as the F-35.

    You are dealing with one of our last remaining Russian Trolls and should expect this. He regularly searches for and posts ANYTHING that can be seen as negative concerning United States military while defending or ignoring what is left of Russias. He even pretends what they say they will make already exists.

    The Russian fleet is not a match for 5% of the USN.

    The same thing happens on all ships of the US Navy. You need to watch less Hollywood production.

    You say that because reading real news is hurting your mind. These news are written by American publications. They are cetailing American experts. You need to watch less Hollywood production. Maybe you did not know, but Rambo, Batman, the Spiderman and your other heroes are in reality fictional characters. Perhaps this knowledge will break your heart, but this is reality :nana:

    Actually I say that because it is true, as for media....Having seen and read Russian media all I can say is I certainly understand why you believe the things you do and accept Russias military superiority.

    You think in categories in terms of the war of the tribes in the Neolithic period. Maybe you do not know, but now it's the 21st century. And the number of savages on pirogues does not matter in a new war.
    For example, the American ship "Donald Cook" was put out of action in the water area the Black Sea by an old Russian plane.
    https://www.veteranstoday.com/2014/11/13/aegis-fail-in-black-sea-ruskies-burn-down-uss-donald-duck/

    Or another example. The US and its allies terrorists fighting against the legitimate Syrian government. After the small Russian forces began to help the legitimate government of Syria - see what happens. Also see the correlation of the forces of the Russians and the forces of the American Coalition.

    Therefore, even 1% of the Russian military is deadly for 100% of the US military. This is obvious to everyone who has a brain.
    But even you say that the Russians have 5%. In this case, the American sailors absolutely have no chance.:roflol::roflol::roflol:

    I do not refer to the Russian media. I refer to the American media.This is the American media write about the fact that the US Army is a paper tiger, as the Chinese say.

    And to understand this, look at the attitude of the NK lyuder to the threats of the madmen from the white house.

    Maybe it's better to tackle the economy in the US than to boast about non-existent achievements in the military sphere And to make the whole world laugh at the "Exclusive nation"?

    Are you seriously debasing the U.S. economy considering the Russian? Are you seriously using Lil' Kimmy to make Trump seem insane (which he obviously is)?
    Go ahead and try to be critical of your dear leader like we are for ours...see how much good that does. Here we are about to remove our nut job from office.

    Are you seriously suggesting that morale problems on a single US Navy ship can be generalized across the entire US military? Two articles on military morale:

    "Military morale plunges 30-plus points under commander-in-chief Obama" http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/dec/9/military-morale-plunges-30-plus-points-under-obama/

    "http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2017/06/what_does_covfefe_mean_try_rising_military_morale.html"


    The American military's morale has skyrocketed under Trump.

    Wars America has won: Revolutionary War, Spanish-American War, Mexican-American War, Civil War, World War I, World War II, Gulf War, Cold War, Afghanistan War, Iraq War

    Wars America has tied: War of 1812, Korean War

    Wars America has lost: Vietnam, War on Poverty

    Wars America is currently fighting: War on Terrorism, War with Islam, War on Drugs

    Not a bad record, overall.

    I'm very surprised the Navy Times would even publish this material. A sad situation, but no surprise. Our military has been "at war" for about 16 years, and that is never good for morale. The Global War On Terror is a fraud, and has harmed our military in many ways.

    I read a book some years ago that claimed that by about 2005 after our invasion of Iraq, the casualties from suicide among soldiers exceeded the casualties from hostile fire. A sad situation indeed, and strong insight into the fraudulent nature of the war on terror.

    As weird as it may sound, I prefer the paranoid vigilence exposed up there to complacency.

    From what I read of the report, the sailors seem to have more of a problem with their former Captain/Commanding Officer then the ship/Navy itself.

    I would not dismiss the complaints about the Navy completely

    Several incidents of US Navy ships colliding with other ships are troubling

    And cutbacks in the budget hurt readiness

    That does not mean we can't win a war and do great damage on our enemy but it might cost more American lives than it ought to if we were more ready
