Well, your friend didn't tell you that Chinese home today is 100 times bigger than their ancestors' home.China have only fight wars at home all time in history. My friend say that.
Chinese Expeditionary Force (Burma)China have only fight wars at home all time in history. My friend say that.
The USS John C. Stennis (CVN 74) and USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76) strike groups commenced dual carrier flight operations in the Philippine Sea June 18.
The ships and aircraft assigned to both strike groups began coordinated operations in international waters demonstrating the United States unique capability to operate multiple carrier strike groups in close proximity.
You don't worry about that Chini Boy. As long as China is getting money, the US is sure to have money too. And before money runs out, we make sure we got what we want and make sure you're pushed back to your proper place. Remenber China made stuff don't last long.@Oblaks Global policing is very expensive and often not worthwhile in W.Pac rim especially where risks are big vs. little gain. Ask not what Uncle can do for u, ask what u can do for Uncle. Posturing is all this is about...
House passes $576B defense spending bill
The House on Thursday passed a $576 billion defense spending bill, defying the Obama administration’s concerns that the bill would shortchange a war fund next year.

Obviously u don't get it, except chest-thumping like "sure to have money" or "proper place".You don't worry about that Chini Boy. As long as China is getting money, the US is sure to have money too.

air defense drills, sea surveillance, replenishments at sea, defensive air combat training, long range strikes, coordinated maneuvers and other exercises.
Obviously you don't know what I'm talking about. China money comes from US money.. intertwined economies.. so don't worry about the US not having enough of it.Obviously u don't get it, except chest-thumping like "sure to have money" or "proper place".
Yes US is the sole superpower undertaking to ensure the world order in its own favour, and to protect its allies. Yet being over-stretched it had to rethink its focus and rebalance. Is it its core interest to back those useless Western Pacific buddies like the Philippines or Malaysia at its own cost? What would these so-called allies contribute to the coffer and shoulder the bills on their own? What gains after all?
In no headlong rush Uncle has to do the calculation, budgeting... meticulously, unlike those who wish to continue the freeloading. Have u seen the nuance, the 2 Carrier Strike Groups are maneuvring in the PHILIPPINE Sea, not China Seas? Such a posturing is intended to boost morale of ASEAN foot soliders but not entailing a direct confrontation in which America would fight others' war for free.
Every move of A/C groups is very costly against the backdrops of budget cut.
Unlike USN, China is situated right on the west rim, and nowhere to go. Chinese can patrol routinely with new facilities on Spratlys at a wee cost like a chip off the US expenses.
Jingoism is a waste of time before basic maths is done.
Now you @amoy should stop using web traslators to say what you mean. Island building was tolerated because those reefs were already china held. Those were also outside of the Philippine EEZ. Besides other claimants also does that reclamation thingy. Try scarborough shoal and you would know what the real world response would be.Yes interwined economies ~ now u @Oblaks get a step closer to the truth. Big guys know that deep in heart so play on the game to put up a SHOW to small guys. But never will a real face-off take place, like in Syria or Crimea. Small guys stuck in between are always the first to be scrapped or fleeced.
Now that US is buffing and puffing with drills as loud comforting messages to Asian buddies, what can be done is being done to prove freedom of navigation has never been obstructed. Then what else to come up? Chinese build-up on Spratly is going on unfaltered as usual despite all the noise! Yes vulnerable they are but what else isn't an easy target? Even A/C groups are not missile-proof.
Yes military bases on the periphery but they're too expensive to maintain often with dwindling strategic value. Therefore US quit Subic, and Soviet Cam Ranh Bay before. Gone are the days when the Philippines and Vietnam could hide behind top powers and get shielded for free. U need to triple your defence budget and face the music.
