"What the West has, and has had for some time now, is a single-shot military."

The West is trying mightily to compensate with a lot of bluster and heroics stories, what we call nowadays propaganda. They have definitely forgotten the lessons from Agincourt, where the democratized long bow (and helped by the muddy ground) inflicted carnage on the noble knights...

Nevertheless, Canada is buying 88 F-35 jet fighters instead of 350 water bombers, despite the fact that this year more forest burned than ever. I guess I can call that protection racket, albeit the proper term is vaselage.
