As China works hard to strengthen every aspect of its military, the U.S. is falling behind. Let’s pray for strength!
From CNN. China’s navy has significant advantages over its US rival, including a bigger fleet and greater shipbuilding capacity, as Beijing seeks to project its power across the oceans, the head of the United States Navy said Tuesday.
Join others crying out to the Lord day and night.
Speaking at the National Press Club in Washington, DC, US Navy Secretary Carlos Del Toro said China “consistently attempts to violate the maritime sovereignty and economic well-being of other nations including our allies in the South China Sea and elsewhere.”
“They got a larger fleet now so they’re deploying that fleet globally,” he said, adding that Washington must upgrade the US fleet in response.
“We do need a larger Navy, we do need more ships in the future, more modern ships in the future, in particular that can meet that threat,” he said.
China’s People’s Liberation Army Navy could be fielding up to 400 ships in the coming years, the Navy secretary said – up from about 340 now.
Meanwhile, the US fleet sits at under 300 ships. …
Del Toro’s claims
Del Toro said Tuesday that US naval shipyards can’t match the output of Chinese ones. As with fleet size, it’s about numbers.
“They have 13 shipyards, in some cases their shipyard has more capacity – one shipyard has more capacity than all of our shipyards combined. That presents a real threat,” he claimed. …
But no matter the number of shipyards, they need workers, and Del Toro says China has a numerical advantage there, largely because it is free of the restrictions, regulations and economic pressures that affect labor in the US. …
He also said China can do things the US can’t.
“They’re a communist country, they don’t have rules by which they abide by,” he said.
“They use slave labor in building their ships, right – that’s not the way we should do business ever, but that’s what we’re up against so it does present a significant advantage,” he claimed. …

NOT A PARTISAN REPLY:
The trend is not new. A president canceled progress on the B-1 bomber, the only supersonic, nuclear capable bomber in the world, to appease the communists. A president sent unsanitized pentagon hard drives to China setting us back more than years. A president made a deal with a nation that historically has sent its terrorists to train in Russia paid locations, promotes death to Israel and America. A president left billions of dollars in a nation we left without order. Is one party is responsible for it all? They WERE all democrats. Or, were they?
But, WHAT IF. What if this was a divinely ordained plan to give the Church a target and the adversary plenty of rope.
All to lead us here.
Remember the God Who laid waste to an entire army for Israel, over and over again. China doesn’t stand a chance, but without God, we don’t either.

Father give wisdom to our leaders in the military and in Congress to focus on protecting and preparing our Navy and soldiers to protect us against enemies foreign and domestic. IJN
Yet another example of what results from leftist ideology!
Some things are about numbers- our enemies have more workers , soldiers and are multiplying at a much greater rate than we are. Has anyone ever heard from a pulpit that we need to be having more babies ??? Of course not as we are not even replacing ourselves. How many IFA members have had more than 3 children?… what happens to OUR America in th next couple of generations?
Thank you Father for loving America th way you do. Help us lord to remain an influence on this creation of yours. We decree Satans influence and agenda be overcome this day in our savior Jesus Holy Name. Amen
