    In other words, today the US Army is capable of fighting only against the Papuans. In the event of a real war with a serious opponent, the USA will lose. And this is recognized by American military experts. Fleet degradation and falling f-35s are a symbol of the modern US army.

    But the most important thing in this article is the headline. Namely - "US sealift can’t count on Navy escorts in the next big war". In other words, the madmen in the White House and the Pentagon are ready to launch a nuclear apocalypse.

    Are you ready to die for the new profits of the oligarchs?

    What do you think about it?

    No surprise here. The bluster of the DoD seems rather a bluff.

    Stalin during the war the USSR with Germany said: "It would be ridiculous to identify Hitler’s clique with the German people, with the German state. The experience of history says that Hitlers come and go, but the people are Germanic, and the German state remains."
    Russians never identifies peoples and their governments. Therefore, no one in Russia identifies the American people and the insane in the White House and the Pentagon. I have always said that the American people are the first victims of the insane in the White House and the Pentagon.

    And Stalin said: "There is never any misunderstanding between the American soldier and the Soviet soldier. Those who spoil everything are politicians."

    Your fascination with the U.S. declaring war on you is unfounded. You will be happier in life if you progress through it without so much fear. You read too many blogs and web sites. And, by the way, the U.S. has the largest and most powerful navy on the planet. That's what I think about your post.

    And in other news we don't have barns and corrals to contain tens of thousands of calvary horses nor the hay to feed them. Saddles are also rumored to be in short supply.

    I thought the navy was going to be obsolete in the next 2 decades. With the advancement of UAV and autonomous combat ground systems the navy will take its natural role as logistical support being in the rear with the gear?

    Wasn't Stalin the idiot who signed a treaty with Hitler that wound up costing over 20 million Russian lives when Hitler predictably broke it?

    Thumbs up to your countrymen for the successful return of the men who made it back alive after the 2nd stage failure of their rocket.

    I think you should stop trying to interpret American military articles when your understanding of English is so poor.

    A big war is inevitable. It is a fact. Read the "Capital" of Karl Marx and you will understand that capitalism must expand, otherwise capitalism will die. But there is a natural limit to the expansion of capital. This is the limited possibilities of the planet. Therefore, the conquest of new markets and resources is possible only with the use of military force.
    Therefore, war is inevitable. And I support the recommendations of Machiavelli, if war is inevitable, it does not need to be postponed. And let win the strongest.
    This will enable the American fleet to show its alleged strength.

    Are you hinting at the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact? This pact was the greatest achievement of Soviet diplomacy. Russians can be proud of this agreement.
    1. This agreement allowed to postpone the beginning of the war of Germany and the USSR for two years. That allowed the USSR to improve its armed forces and to prepare the capacities for evokuatsii production from the central part of Russia, on Ural.
    2. Hitler attacked his sponsors in Europe. European governments did their best to send Hitler east, but Russian diplomats beat them.
    3. The Second World War in Europe began in 1938 with the attack on Czechoslovakia. Germany, Poland, Hungary, with the full support of Western governments (the Munich Agreement) attacked Czechoslovakia.
    4. Do not forget that the USSR was the last of the countries of Europe to conclude an agreement with Nazi Germany. Poland was the first to conclude an agreement with Germany. Then an agreement with Germany was concluded by other countries. The USSR were the last.
    5. Do not read Western media. It is very harmful for the brain.

    I think so too. But the insane at the Pentagon thinks that their troughs will be able to influence "Satan" or "Bulava".

    I read Das Kapital. I put no credence in it at all. It fails to understand human nature. Enjoy your war.

    This is because you are not familiar with Hegel's delecticism. Just your intellect is not able to understand the economic theories of Marx. I can advise you easy to read and accept the work of Lenin "Imperialism as the highest stage of capitalism." Lenin, in an accessible language, PROVES the inevitability of war in the imperialist states.

    Obviously. Consider it an English study assignment, if you like. You've got to start somewhere, so why not here?

    They believe that the main victory in the Second World War belongs to America, Stalin was worse than Hitler, and the Soviet Union could fight only thanks to American help.
    You ask about the Kwantung Army. They don't know anything about her. In the American propaganda it is written that Soviet troops fought against Japan in 1945 only on the islands.

    When they understand that they have nothing to answer the facts, then, in all forums, the standard answer is "you have a poor knowledge of English."
    It means that they crap.

    Impossible. The United States already pays half of the amount received in debt to pay off this debt. But there is also a budget deficit.

    Yes. I noticed it. Hollywood creates a story for them. By the way, many of them believe in Batman and S-pider-man. And even more of them believes that Hitler was destroyed by "Captain America". But they are hard to blame for not knowing the facts. Because they study history by comics.

    There are no other options for the interpretation of the article. All you can offer is only demagogy.
