The Chinese aircraft carrier Liaoning-CV-16 docked at the Syrian port of Tartus, accompanied by a guided missile cruiser. Its arrival has upended the entire strategic situation surrounding the Syrian conflict, adding a new global dimension to Moscow and Tehran’s military support for Assad.
This sounds severe except if one understands the true background here. China has exactly ONE carrier…this one. It is a 20 year old Ukrainian aircraft carrier that was only 70% complete when Ukraine disarmed in 1998. They sold the half built ship to China who has taken 20 years to finally complete the vessel. China has no experience at all with naval air operations. In truth, the carrier arrived in Syria without a single aircraft aboard. More of this humorous sabre rattling on the next page:
It could be that their supporting Isis and pretending to be helping us.
good let them do it atleast they dont have a muslim president
Do you suggest that we send Soldiers and Marines of our own over there? I tell you what, after being deployed to shithole Muslim countries four times already I am glad to let someone else do the dirty work.
Nope I’m not , and I’ve done my time too so don’t act like your the only one
Can you be any more late on this?
We have been after Syria for a few years. Backfired. Now we are using all of the rebels and the American made Isis, including all the weapons we gave them, to take over all of these countries in the middle east. Reason? $$ China and Russia aren’t going to allow it. When are many of you going to realize we are not as great as we were brainwashed to believe?
Crude oil ==== one of the most manipulated commodities on the planet. Crude oil and the refined products (gasoline) is nothing more than a political tool. Who remembers in the 1970’s when OPEC changed the price of a barrel of crude from $10.00 to $100.00 overnight? The so called “world pool” was created to keep the price of crude under control and to keep the price of a refined product artificially high.
