Truly a testament to the times we live in when I can’t tell if this is sarcasm.
Hmmmm. I wonder if any of them knows about the opium wars in China and whether they understand the sheer irony in this situation. Also and in lack of infrastructure and leadership with a head in the sand. Once must wonder if China will make sure that no United party springs up after the USA inevitably falls but I guess given the sheer amount of hatred and racism, we might not need to worry about that for some time, especially when the USA loses all ability to construct or even be able to function in a Mad Max world and will focus only on tribal warfare

This explains the quality of leadership coming from the west.

Given that hunter biden, George bush, and countless other Atlanticist elites indulge in hard drugs, Epstein sponsored parties for prince Andrew etc, (to say nothing of pizzagate) is it any wonder that the west is now in the state it is in at the moment?

As long as they don’t tamper with ACMF standards I don’t see what the fuss is about. Some heavyset people are surprisingly dexterous and agile.
It's not just about fitness, imagine being 150lb soldier who has to carry a 250lb linebacker who got shot. Equipment is generally designed around a fairly broad typset, anything outside that causes added expense. Think about weight and height restrictions for tankers.

I guess the US army recruitment has gotten so bad they can't be as picky as they used to be.

TOKYO - Japan's space agency sent a self-destruct signal to an Epsilon rocket after its failed launch on Wednesday, Kyodo News reported.

The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) sent out a self-destruct order to the Epsilon-6 solid-fuel rocket carrying eight satellites soon after it was launched early Wednesday from Uchinoura Space Center in the southwestern prefecture of Kagoshima, the media reported.

The order came immediately after the JAXA discovered a problem with the rocket that made it unable to fly safely, according to the report.

The Epsilon-6 rocket is 26 meters long and weighs 95.6 tons, and is designed to be an improved final entry in the Epsilon series.
