Thought folks here on FR who are following the development of the Red Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) would be interested in this development.

Hillary’s campaign debt paid off?

Seriously, this isn’t a big surprise. Interesting times ahead.

Painted with lead paint, no doubt.

Thanks for the BUMP. The Chinese are using our gross trade imbalance and our fixation with their cheaply priced gadgetry to fund an arms race where they are making great strides in catching up to us.

One day, it will cost us much, much more in treasure and blood to overcome what they are doing.

From their new HUMMVEE type vehicles, to their new Amphibious ships, to their VLS systems and their radars and guidance system, to this new defensive missile, they are gleaning our own ideas and technology, re-engineering them for their own purposes, and then building them with a will.

I wonder if

Dilldo Klintoon and Billybob Richardson

helped make that treasonous sale for personal gain, too?

This is what comes of giving them free access to our schooling, technology, and even to visiting and participating in exercises aboard our own most sophistiaced vessels...a lot during the Clinton years (particularly in shady dual-use technology deals), but also continuing to a lesser extent to today.

I have little doubt. Now we can probably expect it to accellerate again under the Obamanation.

The Chinese one looks like a non-functional mock-up, the US system looks like a photo of a deployed system, note the dirt & grunge on it.

But theirs does hold more ammo than ours...

That’s exactly what both pics are...but they are developing it now from a less impressive existing system and are expected to field it in the next couple of years.

Sunday Night Random Thoughts:

OPINION: There's a reason the USA is not mentioned in the Bible.

OPINION #2: Considering the amount of willfully ignorant voters in the USA; I believe that China's military could advance quickly (technology wise) and encounter relatively few obstacles.

Then of course there's the global jihad, but that's another story.

I believe we may well be mentioned...but that is a matter of interpretation.

I personally think we are going to be so involved with our own internal upheavel...that we will not play a major part in the end-scene...but we will also have those nukes and may well be left alone to our own devices as the end scene develops in the Mid-East with the other world powers.

As to the Chinese. They are definitely rising both economically and militarily. Read that 2009 update if you haven't and look at some of the other pages on that site. They are building a fighting navy, and they are doing so with a will.

“They are definitely rising both economically and militarily.”

Again, I agree.

INDEED.

I’m increasingly convinced that what DIMITRU DUDUMAN ‘saw’ in his visions and dreams about China invading the USA

http://www.mikeboldea.blogspot.com/

[Search “China” at his site]

has been scheduled by the Oligarchy.

Further, that the Oligarchy has been busy arming China with increasingly modern weapons so her destructiveness of the USA willlll have more punch.

There must be some special places in hell prepared for such traitors.
