#1 Guam-CNMI-WESTPAC???

* ION WAFF > [StrategyPage] CHINA VERSUS SCUBA COMMANDOS.

Or as I used to say + still do, "ITS CALLED THE OSCAR-CLASS"!

USN's all-female Submarine(s) versus China's Three Gorges Dam???

Given that China has repor deployed a large number of advanced SAM + BMD units all around the Three Gorges - DITTO FOR THEIR NEW POST-THREE GORGES DAM PROJECT THAT IS SSSOOOOOO MASSIVE IT WILL ALLEGEDLY "SLOW THE ROTATION OF THE EARTH"???

#3 I'm not clever enough to even speculate about that, Skidmark. In which direction does Pyongyang connect to the outside world? I would think the South Koreans had scuba divers as well as we have the SEALS, but my level of knowledge approaches zero from the negative side on this one.

#5 I'd have the ROK scuba divers tap that cable, not cut it. I'd get the most sophisticated listening and interpretation devices I could on that project and decrypt/learn everything possible.

Then I'd have some fun putting in some new messages and emails...
