China has been building a serious blue water navy and engaging in unprecedented military expansion in the South China Sea for quite awhile while we the people float around in our corporate fog machine.

I'm glad some people understand the seriousness of it. Russia just announced they have a nuclear weapon that can take out ALL of Texas in one pop. Why they seem so war hungry is insane and it stinks.. I think it's Pooten and his Napoleon complex. Anyways...I think I found the answer..... www.foxbusiness.com/features/2014/02/25/plan-to-axe-10-warthog-gets-pushback.htmllinkThinking back, I'm pretty sure they were almost all A10's. A bunch of them. This would explain it.

I think warthogs are the coolest looking planes on the planet, and they be old, slow and deadly as hell.
I wouldn't worry about Russia nuking the US or anyone else really, I don;t think anyone but religious fanatics are that level of whacknut, more a matter of squeezing NATO countries with a dozen little wars.
I'm more concerned about the corporate take over of this country, those are the bastards who will sell us out for a buck and both sides of the aisle kiss their ass.

A10's are not fighter jets. They are killers of anything on the ground and provide close ground support for ground forces.They are ancient and have been up for retirement a while now, but there is no replacement for them. They do their job VERY well.There are not that many of them left. How many do you think you saw?

Youtube has many vids of them in action and it is awesome! Air to ground not air to air so I would have no idea where they would have been going? Bill

They also have a titanium tub protecting the pilot, have cable backup control and can get shot up pretty bad and still make it home. The pilots love them.

But there appeared to be other jets in the group. Did you read the article at the link I posted? It seems they are extending their service beyond 2018 and restoring many from the boneyard that had been decommissioned.

That might make North Koreas Kim Junk ill the most religious fanatic whacknut on the planet. I don't think he's mature enough to hold the keys to nukes. Wait a minute...he's atheist....

He doesn't have nukes to send anywhere, on the other hand, I can show you a study from Princeton that shows how corporations have taken over the government. Which concerns me far more. Since most wars are for corporate profit...

I disregard Princeton, Harvard and most "Ivy League" studies these days. Those screwels seem to be more about "safe zones" and indoctrination than education these days. Maybe 100 years ago they were great places.
However, there are some nasty corporations for sure. But keep in mind corporations are not forcing anyone to do anything. That's sheeple mentality.
If you disagree strongly with a corporation, then don't do business with them and encourage others to do likewise.

Actually they did an extensive study in 2014 that proved corporations run the government. Among their findings was the fact that whether or not a law gets passed has nothing to do with the peoples support or opposition, but rather what corporations want. It's valid study based on numbers, not opinions.
No sheeple to it, corporations are increasing market shares, driving out competition and using the government to make sure you don't have a choice.
And corporate prostitution is bi-partisan.
Not to mention stealing billions in corporate welfare...

And corporate prostitution is bi-partisan. Not to mention stealing billions in corporate welfare... I don't think it's corporations per se....but rather their MONEY. So, whether it's a billionaire like George Soros or a corporation like Comcast or AT&T, they use their money to influence government and in turn, government gives them more influence. But that influence also comes from Saudi Arabia and any deep pocketed power monger looking to buy influence over American politics. Sad. We're losing our nation to greed and corruption. It's a lose lose for the average citizen. One candidate favored to win next month will make sure that corporate influence is greatly increased. That's what I can't understand, is how people can be so ill informed to allow it to get worse.

Both candidates will serve their corporate masters, it's not a partisan thing at all, the only difference between republicans and democrats are the corporate interests they serve.

Steve King, tea bagger hero, took as much money from the banking lobby as did his democratic counterpart Loebasack. And both stood silent like good little lapdogs when Wells fargo executives admitted criminal fraud on a massive scale (and no, not the fake account problem).
One of Steve Kings aides stood in my studio and lied about being a welfare farmer, one of the biggest in his district actually.
They're all worthless pigs anymore.

Peas.....Not sure how....but we're WAY off the OP here. If we want to discuss this further it prolly should be in another thread of it's own
