It's Russia against 50 countries.. With your theory of being the strongest country in the world is false until usa fight countries like Russia, china and north korea.
Assuming the position of strongest country in the world goes beyond armaments. War has gone beyond the traditional level of just taking weapons to kill each other. Economy, technology, strategic relationships etc play a vital role in modern warfare.

The USA is arguably the only country in the world that its mainland cannot be successfully invaded just like I stated in my lead post.
At present, of all the boxes that determine a powerful country, the USA not only ticks all but do so far above every other country.
Even in battle experience, they arguably have it in abundance than every other country because the USA is basically fighting war every year whether symmetrical/asymmetrical.

This is not an attempt to downgrade Russia and other superpowers but "power" in the real sense of it in this present civilization, the USA is ahead of the pack and everyone knows it.
Have you wondered why more and most countries including almost equally powerful ones like Germany, UK, France etc listen to the US without the US pointing a gun to their heads? There is something that makes them listen...

The US and Russia avoiding each other in theatres of conflict does not mean one is stupid. It is for the good of all.

To your last statement, why would the USA fight Russia or China to prove they are the strongest? What is the strategic benefit in doing that when those opponents already know.
Please don't mention North Korea in global powerful discourse especially where the likes of US and Russia is discussed.
Be like some of una dey overwhelmed with this idea of nuclear weapons o. Pakistan has nuclear weapons but some of you don't always mention them since your metric for who is a powerful country is the possession of nuclear weapons

what about 🦃

Turkey won't attack isreal, it's a NATO member because they are dealing with islamist PKK . The Muslim countries are carful because of sectarian differences, Saudi Arabia is battling Yemen terrorist at it's border. Syria could have attempted attacking isreal but it's battling terrorist that have crippled it too. Egypt dares not attack isreal, El sisi won't think of it. He's in power because of Western support, remember he crushed Islamic brotherhood using armoured tanks and apaches to bring down several mosques.

Palestine, which we now call Israel, was part of Turkey (ottoman) untill the first world war. Turkey which succeeded the Ottoman empire is a Muslim nation and knows its history and loves Palestine.

I know history more than you, but you are right, I shouldn't have disrespected you, for that I am sorry.

Matthew and John both saw and walked with jesus but they told same story in a different way. Josephus never saw jesus but gave account of him like he saw him. Does it make Josephus a first hand account person?

People will continue to put things the way they want. Just as ancient Yorubas methodically remove from history any king that was deposed.

True History!

"USS Liberty: Dead In The Water" (BBC Documentary 2002)


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjOH1XMAwZA

On June 8th, 1967, during the Six-Day War, Israel attacked and nearly sank the USS Liberty belonging to its closest ally, the USA. Thirty-four American servicemen were killed and over 170 wounded in the two-hour assault by Israeli warplanes and torpedo boats.

Israel claimed that the whole affair had been a tragic accident based on mistaken identification of the ship. The American government accepted the explanation. For more than 30 years many people have disbelieved the official explanation but have been unable to rebut it convincingly.

Now, "Dead in the Water" uses startling new evidence to reveal the truth behind the seemingly inexplicable attack. The film combines dramatic reconstruction of the events, with new access to former officers in the US and Israeli armed forces and intelligence services who have decided to give their own version of events. Interviews include President Lyndon Johnson's Secretary of Defense, Robert McNamara, former head of the Israeli navy, Admiral Shlomo Errell, and members of the USS Liberty crew.

ReubenE:

Like you rightly said, it is the other components of the strike group that makes it an elite fighting force.

But the impression that a "carrier" is a big defenseless ship is not entirely correct. These are not carriers used in World War 1. Aircraft Carriers have their own defenses too like anti-air self-defense system so it is not entirely a sitting duck.


True,
I meant to say a carrier is NoT Just a big defenseless ship,
A carrier itself is well capable of destroying drones with its 5inch guns

Why didn’t they send their Carrier Strike Group to Ukraine to deter Russian illegal occupation and bombardment?

Hamas will drop one cheap drone on that Ship, they have nothing to lose

hahaha

Hamas go fear to do that, as that would be a direct attack on USA.

That single act will make all of Palestine engulfed in a mushroom cloud.

Christians are the dumbest people on earth. How can you support the people who persecute you and killed your God?
Palestine accommodated you and still you turned to ingrates.
Re: US Sends Carrier Strike Group To The Eastern Mediterranean In Support Of Israel by Mikel99(m): 2:47am On Oct 09, 2023
This is the reason why I can never become a Christian. They have the most illogical, idiotic and irrational concept of God. How can God, the perfect judge, chose the people who killed his son and persecute his followers ( christians) as his own people?
Re: US Sends Carrier Strike Group To The Eastern Mediterranean In Support Of Israel by Mikel99(m): 2:48am On Oct 09, 2023
Let me ask this question: Why are Israelites God's chosen people?
Re: US Sends Carrier Strike Group To The Eastern Mediterranean In Support Of Israel by Mikel99(m): 2:52am On Oct 09, 2023
If Israel is undefeatable as the christians claim, why can't Israel handle Palestine on its own? Why does it need external help?

Keep applying tacqyiyaa. All you people want is to establish the kingdom of Allah worldwide with application of Othman empire,uthman danfodio and prophet Muhammad style.

The style is "Accept Islam or you die and also must pay jizya to live, if you reject islam etc. Islam is a curse and should be wiped away from the whole world.




LordCenturion:

u are seriously madt, so anyone that didnt support the evil nato and israel are tagged muslim... See, the name of my first son is israel.... I hate it when those that claim to be powerful are using their power to molest others with less or no power.... I know that many stewpid nigerians like u are supporting israel evil because of religion,whereas the real ancient israelites are lost inside and merge with palestine of today and they are not white,those ones parading themselves today as israel are white european jews that were sent into exile by hitler,they eventually settle down at a little place around israel and begin to take palestinian land with the help of UN and nato.

Because they fail to understand that every Muslim is a terrorist. The should have slaughtered all, bet me the war will finished within ten days

Terrorism will disappear from earth cos other Islamic country will fear.



Neoteny7:


Nonsense.

It was never game over for the Taliban, or Al Qaeda, or ISIS, or Hezbollah...why should it be for Hamas?

The US wasted 20 years fighting the Taliban with all its economic and military might, but in the end had to negotiate a truce and withdraw in shame.

The Zionists have been caging and fighting Hamas since forever but were still caught with their pants down

Their attacks in Gaza will only breed a million more Hamas terrorists, and fuel the hatred of the Muslim world towards the jews who subjugate the Palestinians.

I'm against terrorism but military might never ends it.
