The absolute state of sh1tshow in military analysis capability by some of the "best" think tanks that the US can offer (let alone some in the Pentagon, i.e. CMPR 2025) in full display (such that this doesn't even warrant being posted in the proper flagship threads):

Apart from the horrendously outdated information on some of the missiles (there has never been any HN-missiles, and that all DF-11 and DF-12 missiles have already been phased out if not fully retired by now), a reminder (pointed out by Guancha Gang and the Adorable Whale) that China somehow still has fewer MRBMs than the number of ballistic missiles that Iran has fired against the Epstein Coalition during the first 22 days of the ongoing war (1350 missiles):

Yes, China has fewer tactical missiles than even fvcking Iran.
I always found it funny when they use China's coast as baseline for projecting Chinese missile range, when just 3 Type 052D can put half the Pacific under hypersonic strike range.

This happened more before they offered rewards.

Yes I've heard it before but if you look you can find a cheaper same name brand gas station somewhere else. They ain't all selling at the same price.
Sure, you can get Shell or Chevron gas elsewhere, but are you willing to drive to it in rush hour, or 10 miles further to save a dime? Most Shell and chevron gas stations around me are within a dime in difference. I use Sunoco 94 octane, and around my area, it is selling for $4.59 a gallon as of this afternoon, and Shell 93 octane is at $4.49, and the distance is about 7.1 miles away one way. I am not going to waste another 40 minutes in stop and go rush hour traffic to just save a dollar on 10 gallons of gas--I will burn more gas and cost me more just to get there and back.

You must live out in the middle of nowhere. In my area you don’t have to travel far to find alternatives. Like I said… four gas stations at an intersection and the one that gets most of the business is the one that costs the most.

I worked for an NGO that helps those desperate underage girl to give them free shelter and food so they don’t need to sell themselves.
Most of them have serious mental problems and suffered sexual abuse in the childhood from family members so they run out abandoning their home.

I really hope China doesn't just agree to reset tie with Philippine without imposing cost to them. After all these years Philippine have acted as a pawn of the American to backstab, smear, provoke, and lied about China and now it thinks there will be no consequences? No, Philippines, like Lithuania, needs to feel the pain of it past actions. It will serve as a warning to other countries thinking they can attempt something similar in the future.
Philippine is like a barking dog that don't bite. Annoying but no harm.
