china has too many people. therefore the Chinese government can put people on small boats and inflatables and charge them towards the American fleet
each small beat would have 2 people, 1 guy to drive it, and another guy to fire a rpg
the small boats will charge and close in towards the American carriers, fireing the rpgs when close
a carrier task force could not defeat 2000 small boats
therefore, the us could not win!

Thats a total fail statement. Ever heard of a tactical nuke? what about a cruise missle? FA FA FA FAILURE Ever since the japs lead suicide charges against us, weve learned of effective ways to deal with those types of situations.

Got an annoying mother-in-law? Nuke her!Dont let a few thousand Taliban advancing on your position stop you from enjoying a nice sunny day. Nuke em! If the world disagrees, theres always diplomatic ways of dealing em? what ways you might ask? nuke em! Tired of having to call in a nuke? now you can drive your very own ICBM-launching truck. but dont worry. if your nuke-blasting needs arent met by a simple tac nuke, just ship it back and youll get a thermonuclear bomb! tired of whistling construction workers ladies? next time whistle back! with a high velocity Cruise missle thatll incinerate the whole building site! and for lighter loads you can carry in your purse, how about a javelin missle launcher! buy now and receive TWO packs of nuclear tipped missles for the price of one!

so you see, you can just forget about that whole even TRYING thing, cause Youll just end up being Flash incinerated by a couple of trigger-happy basterds (pardon my french)
