    I could see a Berlin-type airlift if that happens. If China shoots down a plane with a Red Cross emblem carrying supplies for Taiwan, some serious shit is gonna happen.

    When your libertarian friends cry about military bases overseas, remember this. There's a reason why we've built military partnerships with the countries that ring China's access to the sea. And yes - a near blockade of Chinese ports could be stopped. But our partners would facilitate a distance blockade of Chinese ports - shipping would be stopped well before it reaches the areas where China could intervene in a blockade.

    So we have at least 2 sunken aircraft carries and all our fighter planes being shot down by shoulder missiles to look forward to.

    Thanks, Kreskin!

    My former ship - USS Joseph Hewes FF-1078 - is now the Lan Yang, flagship of the Taiwanese navy.

    My dad’s ship, the USS Colahan DD-658, was sunk for firing practice off California in 1966.

    And the Russian wonder why the Euros have all turned to face them? Switzerland is dropping their long cherished neutrality, Finland in NATO, Sweden in as soon as Turkey gets a big enough bribe. The Euros have found replacement for a big chunk of Russia's energy, they're arming Ukraine and standing with them and the U.S..

    Gee, I wonder what caused that to happen?

    This may be the first time in recorded history Poles have been referred to as “snobby.”

    That reads like some of the crazy letters to the editors we occasionally get.
