I'm no logistics expert etc.
I'm sure there are a variety of approaches the Chinese will use.
Who was it said something to the effect . . . when all the other possibilities are accounted for, no matter how improbable, what's left, must be the truth.
Quix, Sherlock Holmes said that. He's a fictional character. And it's not true, anyway. Usually, when you've eliminated other possibilities, it doesn't mean that something impossible must be true, it just means that there's almost certainly SOMETHING ELSE that you HAVEN'T THOUGHT OF.
Poohbah, God knows the last thing _I_ want to do is come to the aid of somebody else's tin foil theory when I have so many of my own, but why don't you lighten up? Nobody has to provide you with _qualifications_ to speculate in an online forum. Nobody has to meet _your_ requirements before they can speculate about what's happening in the world. You tried this same stupid crap with me.
Container ships is an _interesting_ speculation for getting people from place to place. Who gives a f#ck that they weren't "designed for amphibious operations?" If you're going to fight a war, you win by getting bold and creative. Commercial airplanes weren't designed to fly into office buildings, but they functioned very well in that capacity...
Poohbah -- do you get paid to hang out here and pretend that you can debunk the interesting things people say? Now why would someone want to do that... Hmmmm....
