In order to understand the present the past is the most reliable guide and accurate reference. We should note that in the later stages of the failing Roman Empire various caesars employed proxy fighters to do their dirty work, as its once brilliant and highly successful military was in decay for numerous reasons, not least, it had grown inefficient and slovenly. Utilising paid proxy fighters hastened the end of the Roman Empire as history records, as these non-Roman fighters eventually turned on the Empire that paid them to fight their wars, realising of course, if Rome is forced to pay for foreign armies its own must be failing and weak, is anyone able to draw a modern parallel -- LOL? Furthermore, and more recently, the failing Nazi Reich became desperately dependent on new, ‘miracle’ weapons that would save them from inevitable defeat, and today America is suffering from the same mania, research “cybercommand,” the US military is far from the fictional heroes of Hollywood depictions, of course this claim is backed by recent events of US Navy collisions with slow, large merchant ships in the open seas and a 30% missile accuracy failure rate, which Trump stupidly bragged about in his failed attempt to intimidate Xi Jingping during a now infamous chocolate dessert after a hosted Trump 'reality TV' dinner. Indeed, the US military and nation is fraying at the Trump/Nero seams.
Russia is far more advanced in cyber and technical warfare, as paralysed US fighter jets/pilots are able to confirm after experiencing complete electronic control failures in mid-air, yet another out-loud laugh.
The shortest lived pseudo ‘Empire’ in history is indeed displaying all the symptoms of failed past, real and pretend empires. Now combine that with the most uninformed, obese, ignorant, divorced from reality population in the western world and things are looking very sad for America. So off to Hollywood and the mass media for another shot of media heroin to maintain the dream/MYTH of superiority, which brain-dead, media-doped Americans readily lap up.
The Russians and Chinese have superior missiles and fighter jets and other armaments which they are able to produce for a minuscule fraction of the cost of outsourced US weaponry, WHY? Simply due to the fact that they do not outsource their weapons development and technologies to profit only driven corporations more interested in fleecing and profit than anything else -- the F-35 strike fighter is a prime example of a cost blowout flying lemon, which Lockheed Martin are only able to dispose of to servile vassal allies in order to avoid bankruptcy.
Rather than spending $billions on outmoded/dated ‘aircraft carriers’ the Chinese have developed highly accurate tactical (nuclear armed) hyper-speed, deadly accurate long range (3,500K) missiles that blow US aircraft carriers into vapour and tiny fragments; now that’s a superior exercise in economy and asymmetry, as these missiles cost a minuscule fraction of even component assemblies on aircraft carriers and are also easily mass produced while it takes years and $billions to build just one aircraft carrier -- LOL! Are we beginning to see how capitalist, corporate outsourcing is killing the nation?
Rather than continue -- many more real world examples exit -- I would confess I’m a woman with no military background whatsoever; HOWEVER, if a mere woman is able to source this factual information from the public domain and add 2+2, imagine what a comprehensive, reality based military specialist would be able to furnish? Makes ya think in REAL terms don’t it, doodles?
No doubt, as do all dying empires, America, in its desperate bid to assert its mythology of superiority would make a very bold attempt to re-assert itself, which desperate undertaking, if history is a reliable guide, would see backward, corporate vampired, failing America, completely fail/FALL. Personally I can’t wait for the international community to haul American war criminals into REAL international courts of justice, the Hague has already proven itself to be a corrupt, politicised ‘American’ court. Clearly, the writing is not on the wall, it's in your failing, incompetent faces, doodles.
