"It's over! They will never invade us again! We will not let them!" The Russians seem to have said. The growing weakness of the West and the strengthening of Russia reinforce this determination and deal the coup de grace to the delirious remnants of Anglo-American imperialism. A hopeful relief for the peoples of the South. Blessed be Russia and its president!
There is no US Navy carrier strike group in the Mediterranean or west Pacific! Two in Indian Ocean safe from Houthi or Iran. US Navy stretched thin, and with limited magazines (ship’s ammunition store) for the few ineffective combatants.
Seems the empire is short wrt both McKinder and Mahan.
IMO, we should be thankful the 1990s Neocons petered out by 2006, although mayhem and chaos continued. As you allude, there's no plan in place to accomplish the Joint Vision 2020 plan. Lots of Doctrine, but no means to fulfill/execute despite $1 Trillion spent yearly.
Massive copium, and corruption: profit from super weapons that don’t perform.
With amnesia /ignoring about the facilities, supply chains, tools and technicians needed to do first world, industrial war.
For example not 10% of the facilities exist for US to establish a semblance of air superiority over the 1000 km line of contact in Ukraine. The problem much bigger than Southeast Asia in 1965.
From the post: "The Virginia–class attack submarine program is 25 percent below staffing needs with delays of up to two years in delivery of the latest Block V variant, which will deploy large numbers of cruise missiles and potentially hypersonic strike weapons."
So the sub program is behind schedule and the hypersonic weapons it is designed to use don't exist.
Hmmm...sounds like they're trying to deliberately destroy the USA with Copium - the most dangerous drug in existence.

We are back where we started. Okean 75.
Except the Outlaw US Empire isn't, which is to Russia and the Global Majority's advantage.
I agree and American debt to GDP when we collapsed was very different then.
By the way it is interesting that IMF article 4 consultation is resuming.

It's actually worse than what was described. Read the whole report, and then there's the nuclear forces report that I reported on a few weeks ago.
I just found your site. I'll go look for the nuclear forces report...
Great! About 600 articles in the archive produced over the last 14 months. with more at my VK site. Glad to have you!
