PRC/PLAAF & PLANAF 2015 Victory Parade Thread

Impressive show I must say. However, is this parade similar to the "show of might" by Russia's Putin this year? None of the Leaders of the Western WW II Allies were at the parade grand stand, as Russia is presently ostracised & considered an aggressor of Ukraine (annexation of Crimea). History also showed that the US and the Allies helped China to drive out the Imperial Japanese Invaders during WW II. How things have changed now - the former enemy has now become a friend, & the friend may become an adversary.
ROK, ROC, India, even the UK conduct military parades...
I have to say, in almost all your posts, you make underhanded statements or outright accusations about "aggressors" and trying to portray peace in a limited scope and ridiculously simplifying complex geopolitical situations -- it's getting very old. You're obviously free to post what you want but consider your own contributions to this forum, man...
That very reply is a perfect example of what I mean -- what does democracy and free thinking have to do with anything? These are all very loaded terms. "Putin's Russia" is also a phrase which is unnecessary on a forum that tries to be objective and professional (at least in the military sub forums). At best, it's a bit naive.
It's not a case of needless suspicion, rather than noticing a blatant pattern. I'd be happy to look back at your recent posts to describe your pattern, but not even I am that anal.
You are of course free to continue to post how you wish based on your own beliefs and perceptions, but I am also free to continue calling you out.

You guys should check out the massive military show of force, oops, I mean Independence day celebration, coming up soon where advill is from.
They have it every year on the 'scare the neighbors day', I mean Independence day. But this year is gonna be massive as it's their 50th birthday.
Guys, please cut the personal back and forth and the loaded terms that could be construed as flame bait.
Best to leave personal commentary and opinion aside if it can be construed as a personal attack by either side.
This thread is about china's Victory Day celebration...no need for comparisons to other countries, or opinions trying to guess or impugn their (or others) motives.

It's nice to see so many of the PRC 2015 Victory Parade rehearsal pics before the real thing. But by the time September comes, it will be like watching a movie many times before the movie opening day that is almost anticlimactic. Unless China decides surprise all of us by flying J-20 2016,2017,2018 in formation as the final event in the parade. I know...... too much wishful thinking.
