and how do we have chance of winning when even something commonsense as installing removable SSMs and SAMs on our current warships was not done. installing anti-ship missiles on current air assets was not done. Acquiring coastal missile batteries was not done. acquiring unguided rockets for the A109s of the navy is being done instead of at the very least laser-guided rockets, etc . All i mentioned was very doable with the available budget. instead we have a ponderous modernization program that is proceeding as if we are in a peacetime situation.to be specific we are not acquiring what is needed right right now till the tail end of horizon 2 and into horizon 3, and that is assuming it will happen. the bully knows very well our capabilities, so it is just commonsense that they can do what they want to do in the west philippine sea when we do not have even a single guided missile. Worsening the situation is our officials who keep saying we will not go to war - that is like showing your opposing poker player what your cards are. in other words, the bully is certain of the outcome of their actions, they do not have to worry about uncertainty of our reaction or counter-action because we have laid it out for them on a silver platter. simply put, they are terrible poker players. except from article: Aquino said sending the navy to counter China is also morally wrong considering the state of the Philippine military – one of the weakest in Asia. China is a military superpower determined to challenge US military dominance in the West Philippine Sea. In finding the appropriate response, the Aquino administration instead brought the dispute to the international arena and asked the global community to pressure China to adhere to international law. (READ: G7 says 'concerned' by situation in East, South China Sea) "Ano ba dapat ang ginawa natin diyan (What should we do in that situation)? Engage in hostilities? If we engage in hostilities there, can we win? O ‘di obviously hindi (Obviously, we won't). Pero (But) even in that aspect, are we endangering lives unnecessarily?," Aquino said. "Iyong maski papasukan natin ‘yung (Even if we consider the) moral dimension, I think it was St Thomas Aquinas who talked about 'just war.' And part of his treatise was: if you engage in war, there has to be that possibility of winning. Kapag guaranteed na hindi (If it is a guaranteed defeat), ‘di ba, that was one of the tenets, tapos may (then there is) exhaustion of all means," he added. http://www.rappler.com/nation/134420-aquino-treason-south-china-sea Edited by pachador, May 28 2016, 10:17 AM.
