It is an international perspective. That country is burned out, board up the door and windows leading up there. Nobody needs to go, trade, or talk to them, they’re done. It’s like they’re not there anymore. Life needs to go on without them, it’s over. Maybe in 4 years, in the unlikely event that there are still elections, they will gets their shit together, but for now, lock the door to the asylum and throw away the key into the drawer of garbage.
You misunderstand the point of an aircraft carrier. It’s not any more defensible than other large, floating objects - but first you have to reach it, and the aircraft it carries are capable of blowing up nearly anything to kingdom come before it gets anywhere close. Carriers aren’t for defense. They’re for projecting power.
They’ve been floating in impunity around the world for 75 years. It’s pretty clear any serious war will start on day one with 5 of them sunk.
The only reason they’re not corals reefs already is a polite gentleman’s agreement to “lets not really war except against the poors” for about 40 years.
They’re so unlikely to survive that battle planners should not waste time countering them after day 2. I wouldn’t be surprised if one or two of them become scuba diving tourist destinations in the red sea before the real war even starts.
Do not ingest their poison, block and ignore weaponized stupidity. Come back in 4 years. Stupid will burn itself out.
You’re more hopeful than you’ve been given any reason to be to assume this will be over in 4 years.
Your complacency is their enforcement mechanism.

The owners of the largest military in the world will make it everyone’s problem before it gets better.
They will learn why castles aren’t defensive military positions anymore and how an aircraft carrier is functionnally a floating castle.

They are a monument to cathedral thinking.
I’ve been waiting for it to do that for the last 3 decades
Good news your wait is almost over. Soon we will have american supercarriers washing on shore, upside down.
