I figured like your “Dear leader (China Joe),” that you would be pulling for the Chinese.

when Argentina used an exocet missile to defeat an English warship, the pretence of invincible seapower ended.

Life experience. We have one military official stating they don't have a defense for them, another claiming they shot down all six. Given what we know about militaries in general and specifically Ukraine, who's most likely telling the truth?

We are extremely overconfident about the ability of the US military. Yes we spend more than anyone in the galaxy. How’s that worked out for us since ww2? What are we 1-6?

And, the type of vessels they destroyed were of zero importance for the future tactics and strategy for winning the war they started.

A French missile. My friend was on a British warship and witnessed the attack first hand.
Nonetheless, the Chinese having this capability has to make you and your ilk happy.

The defense systems were probably “sold” to Zalenskyy.
They are now probably being used to protect the compounds of the cartels.

I need something more tangible than that. Like actual evidence.

You understand that the video going around was already debunked, right?

Once China attacks Taiwan or U.S. Naval assets, they cease to exist as an industrialized nation. Malacca closed. Timor Sea closed. No energy, no food, no more Chinese people.

They also cost about $4-$6 million EACH and Lockheed can only make about 60 of them per year. They're meant to be used against missiles that cost about $50-100k each and can be mass-produced by the thousands. Good luck with all that

Well, given Russian claims about the capabilities of their tech versus their actual performance, I'm much less inclined to believe things like Shoigu's claims in that same link that they destroyed a Patriot or take claims about the capabilities of their missile technology at face value.
Secondly, General Ryder (the Pentagon's Press Secretary) did later confirm that the Ukrainians did use a Patriot to down a Kinzhal, which is in this link. LINK
quote:
Q: I just wanted to double check -- you -- you did confirm -- you did confirm that a Patriot downed this Kinzhal missile ...
GEN. RYDER: Correct.
Q: ... did I hear that right?
GEN. RYDER: Correct.
Later, several images and OSINT work done by several people seemed to confirm that.
The most likely truth is that some Kinzhal's were shot down, but probably not as many as the Ukrainians claimed in the Reuters link.

Yep, we knew the Japs were coming and the important stuff was out to sea.
People now know Roosevelt wanted the war but needed an excuse because 87% of the American people did not want to go to war.
Roosevelt was a POS!!

The U.S., Australia, Japan, India, U.K., Indonesia, Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore, and Vietnam are all capable. I guess just whoever gets there first.

If China wants to invade Taiwan, then they will do it. The bought and paid for, feckless shite stain that you voted for will probably support them doing so. You are such a tool.
Why would Trump support them doing that?
