<< Submarines are tactically useful for China, especially to enforce its claim on [The FRee Republic of China, (ROC) whose capital city is located on the]island of Taiwan, because they are difficult to detect, and unseen submarines are a powerful deterrent to any enemy. >>

"Deterrent?"

"Enemy?"

Aren't deterrents used AGAINST enemy aggressors?

[Or have the FRee Men of The FRee Republic of China experienced a sudden change of their collective Character?]

[Cincinatus' Wife]

So very secretive. Aggressors? Yes indeed. How about our plane they "clipped" in internatinal airspace and that only a miraculous landing saved?

Very perceptive of you.

A good example of the insidious way in which journalists legitimize dictatorships of "the left" and de-legitimize "capitalist" states.
