That China has only one aircraft carrier is an advantage. The fewer anvils you have around your neck, the better you can swim.
You must analyse any potential conflict in context. Since China will not attack the USA, any fighting between them must be in China’s home waters. China will not need its aircraft carriers, and if the USA’s carriers come within about 1,000 miles of China they will be sunk by missiles.
Ironically, everything Mr Mercouris adduces to prove Israeli intelligence superiority and Iranian laxness is exactly what one would expect of a free society.
Western governments brag about liberty and democracy, but stamp on them hard whenever they see them.
Perhaps Iran actually believes in freedom and openness.
Aircraft carries are sitting ducks. If the US does start a war with Iran, those aircraft carriers out there are going to be sunk by Iranian missiles especially designed for that purpose. Three aircraft carriers = three sitting ducks. I think sending them all is very consistent with a bluff, not a real intention to attack. Trump wants to get out of this with a nuclear deal with Iran. He will say his policy of peace through strength worked, and bring the armada home. Netanyahu won’t like it.
Trump will do what Jew Netanyahu tells him.
Why are you afraid to admit that you are a Communist?
Are you ashamed or regret it?
Its all about BRICS
