If you don't count the US' national guard units you can't count the Chinese reserve units....

Also, do the Chinese run similar theories to the Norks where EVERY citizen is considered to be in the reserve army? If so, wow, 1 Billion, give or take, combatants against the US... that'd suck big ones.

Also, I would hazard a guess that neither the US nor China will want to invade the other for fear of nuclear retaliation or just fear of a meat grinder.. it'd probably be played out in some third world country or theatre that is not close to home (Middle East, Africa, Pacific)

might surprise you.

Don't forget that at any given moment the US only has a couple hundred thousand battle ready troops.
I can't see anywhere that confirms your numbers, though obviously I haven't looked at the whole thing.

Aren't all debates speculative? Or at least most of them. Regardless, those are the most interesting ones...

Clearly you are a hard pounding gentleman whom embraces opinions tightly, this I observe, but is the subject matter worthy enough?

I must add Bahrain regime persecution
Good point , Bahrain hasn't made a headline since the 22nd, the media really must buck its act up, two days is too long for a dodgy regime to be out of the headlines.
Obviously they spent too much time yesterday on their middle eastern coverage doing Libya, Syria, Yemen(damn thats the story that isn't covered and certainly isn't updated), Israel/Palestine (as usual), Saudi, Iran, Iraq and Egypt instead of real news....why won't the lamestream media cover these issues eh? why are they being so quiet?

What we really need is for the media to give more real stories about fluffy kittens stuck in strange places or Pandas with erectile disfunction

Our Air Force(s) have more planes, our Navy has greater Tonnage and we have more Strategic Arms.

It answers the question you asked.

Firstly, you had an issue with gold adverts on sites
No I didn't. If you notice I already pointed out to you that it wasn't the case and you were wrong

now it comes down to wether or not prices are inflated or if they are then it's a rip-off
Two wrongs one after the other.

Either ........
Unless you get the first bits right instead of wrong you shouldn't move to a conclusion

Read your news article about Belfast riots whilst seeking your soul mate on your second monitor.
You would have a point if the articles about the riots were telling you that if you got a soul mate through a dating agency you would be safe from sectarian idiots playing silly buggers
