I seem to recall that the casino thing never happened and that "plan" (or, was it disinfo?) was shelved.Wouldn't be the first timea business venture bombed.
I also am led to believe that the hull is in a highly secure drydock area undergoing unknown modifications.

Looking Outward "There is no sound reason for believing that the world has passed into a period of assured peace outside the limits of Europe."
Absolutely relevant still ... and good that we listened and responded ... WW I and then WW II left us no other recourse in any event.

The SU-30 is a 4th -generation fighter
The US will come out with the 5th generation fighter soon
The US must always be 10 steps ahead of our rivals
Heck, the World needs us to defend them against International Terrorism, Communism.........
We must defend the weak against the strong.....
good against evil.....
And use our power righteously.......

Actually, we're designing the 6th generation--unmanned fighters.
