Boneheads, NATO stands for North Atlantic Treaty Organization. China doesn't border the Atlantic.
Wow.... down to begging now, indicative of how far they've fallen.
Imagine the rest of the world, back in the 19th century, seeked a deal with colonial Europeans over responsible and transparent genocide, slavery and land stealing.
“How did you go bankrupt?” Bill asked.
“Two ways,” Mike said. “Gradually and then suddenly.”
“What brought it on?”
“Friends,” said Mike. “I had a lot of friends. False friends. Then I had creditors, too. Probably had more creditors than anybody in England.”

It seems there is a structural problem with how the US Military handles classified information. Don't ask me how I know it but I know this is not how it is done in most of Europe. Specific positive vetting is required in Europe.
BTW there is a post on Quora a former 688i sonarman talking about exercises he had against Ohio classes. He even has detection ranges on the post.

The US Navy has no path to challenge the PLAN-CCG-MM in the Indo-Pacific.
The USN has a legal inventory requirement for 31 amphibious warships but wants to reduce that number in favor of other investments...without asking Congress to remove the legal requirement.

The gCaptain article and its links provide a good summary of the USN's inability to chart a path forward.
Just want to note:
Rice is 19-21% of global caloric intake and in exchange for it's emissions.
Global methane emissions in 2021 was ~560 Mt. 1 kg of methane is 25 CO2-eq. That means, if Rice is 10% of global methane emissions, it is producing 1.4 Gt of CO2-eq.
For comparison, cows (beef + dairy) produce 4.6 Gt of CO2-eq but are only responsible for 1% of global caloric intake.
That means Rice is 62.5-69x more calorie-emission efficient than cows.
I don't know what's more absurd than a country having legal mandates for the number of military platforms. That is military-industrial-congressional-complex right there AKA corruption.
Gather around boys and girls, time for some Chinese proverb lessons. You can't ever hope to reintegrate with the Chinese society if you don't know basic stories, like that of the Guizhou Donkey.
China has no leverage over Israel, so China is not going to "restrain" Iran. If Iran's nuclear program is to be "restrained" so should Israel abolish its nuclear weapon. Although Iran should accept Israel's existence, Israel should also simultaneously stop planning to bomb Iran's facility or sabotaging Iran.
If Israel want China to do anything about Iran, Israel has to give something in return. Israel cannot live on US "protection" and do whatever it want while demanding China to "restrain" Iran or Palestinian Arabs.
China is not stepping into western Asia to favor someone over others. China treats everyone equal.
I think the Israelis know what I am saying.
