    Then again, how stupid is this...The Future the US Military is Constructing: a Giant, Armed Nervous System

    One hacker and whole system is toast and we start seeing warships going bonkers. Whacko birds. Oh, wait. Hmmm.


    I see the USS Fitzgerald is getting a new radar, though.

    Dunno. Back in June, S. Korea refused to deploy US antimissle system, though. Likely in an effort to appease China since they sanctioned them for it. China viewed it as a threat to the regional balance of power. Though, S. Korea is rearming.

    Toss in Trump's silk Road plan with China and there's other follies about.


    luctor, did you hear the one about the US Set to Restrict Russian Flights Over US, Violating Open Skies Treaty ?

    But...Russia & US to create new space station in moon’s orbit - United States And Russia To Build NASA-Led Space Station


    Scwewy, huh? lolol.

    I don't see North-Korea as a major threat. They want to survive, they won't attack. The only thing you worry about is what happens when their 'government' implodes.

    Yes, not sure what will happen though.

    Ah well, even during the cold war there was (some) cooperation between Russia and the US in space. Great thing if you ask me. The Russians are good at space-$#@! as well. But yeah well, there is not one direction everything in the world is heading to. There are many opposing things that when combined together may allow you to predict where the future is headed. Life sucks, but at least it's interesting.

    Okay, later, luctor.

    I think the threat that exists is not so much them attacking us or our allies but rather providing the technology to someone else that will.

    We don't worry about that, that's the intent. We did not pass a 700 billion dollar military spending bill to fight North Korea. China has challenged the empire, and Russia is egging it on. Their ads they targeted us with, were designed to make people xenophobic and targeted people who are racist. Putin likes to talk about how the white race is a minority in America and that its because China is becoming so powerful..
