Sorry but you don't have a clue about what you are talking about. What you see in that picture is all about China showing America that they can kick our tailsthat's what I said/wrote. That's what they were told or instructed to do. The Americans may or may not have been on their best behavior but that's my point exactly. They "showed" their people that they weren't going to let USA come in and push them around.
By leaving it looks worse.
As for the Orion being forced down.... once again you prove my point. What did we do to China for doing that? Did we do another fly by with some fighters flying CAP around them? Nope. Did we take our battle group and park it in Taiwan and shoot down anything that came closer than 120 miles? nope. In fact the Chinese parked a sub right next to one of our carriers (figuratively speaking)....... Click here
As I also stated earlier, if and when there is going to be a conflict, Do you think that they will fight a "war" allowing us to use our superior technology? Why would they do that? If they assaulted Taiwan, mixed in with the civilian populace by placing weapon systems in hospitals, churches/temples, schools etc.... what are we going to do besides.....er... negotiate? Oh that's right we can "sanction" them... or do "hard politics" that Obama yapped about. f'ing joke.
You think that a war with China is going to be a cake walk, think again brother. Think "logistics" and think about what we can build and what they can build for a soldier. hahahahahahahaha... go get an American Flag and look at the label. We're not even talking magazines, boots, laces, parachute systems, primers, etc....
Here's a little surprise for those that think we're superior to the Chinese military
Do not forget that the Chinese are TOTALLY dependent upon maritime shipping of the vital resources that make their society run. And they have NO navy to prevent disruptions of their vital sea lanes.
If China tries to mess with America we could totally shutdown the flow of African oil that they depend upon. What would China do then? And even if they attempt to bully Vietnam or India, like they are doing now,those smaller powers could shut China down in a hurry. Imagine if the tiny submarine fleet of Vietnam or India decided to plant mines off the harbors on the Chinese east coast. Even just three Chinese ports put out of action by the threat of mines would cripple China severely. Again what would China do but complain loudly? They have no minesweeping capability to speak of.
By the time the riots were raging in China because they could not feed their people and their cheap imports were piling up at the docks China would be on its knees.
And that is just for starters
