The crumbling western myths and the crumbling western dominance

 The Brits have still not learned their lesson, sending its two bathtubs to threaten China and Russia. During WW2, the 'Prince of Wales' and 'Repulse' did not even need to enter the war and were sank by the Japanese upon leaving harbor.

Aircraft carriers and their support ships are now sitting ducks for hypersonic missiles and drones. They may boast about 'submarine killers' that targeted submarines that posed hidden threats to aircraft carriers. They may be able to track such submarines before they get too close, but hypersonic missiles are another matter. Their speed does not give ample time for countermeasures, and it just takes minutes from launch to hit its target.

Of course, the USA has to downplay the incident involving the Eisenhower, and even to deny the reality, but to upload a clip from the distant past to try to fool viewers is a tad too foolish. It is counterproductive. But how to produce a clip with the aircraft carrier showing its wounds? Desperate situations call for desperate response and the only way was to lie about it with a clip that backfired.

Many analysts were also talking about the recent Iranian retaliation against Israeli attack on its embassy in Syria, that caused much more damage to Israel than what we are being told. The Israelis have made great effort to cover it up, as it was a big disaster for the 'Iron Dome' invincibility myth.
