Nice carrier and all, shame that it didnt stop you from getting your arses kicked out of Vietnam. Some brown people with turbans in Afghanistan are also kicking your arses hard. Meanwhile britain with that little tugboat won its last war - the Falklands.
If you want to see the real truth, watch Man Vs. Food. Shove 2lbs of overcooked brisket in a hotdog roll, dip it in butter, and you have the essence of an American.
Just like we won a jungle war in SE Asia against a domestic communist insurgency, while still broke after WW2. The kind of war America would declare "unwinnable" 2 decades later when you fought it with all the money and technology in the world.
"Margaret Thatcher forced Francois Mitterrand to give her the codes to disable Argentina's deadly French-made missiles during the Falklands war by threatening to launch a nuclear warhead against Buenos Aires"
Arrogant bullies couldn't stop missiles that only fly in reverse
At least they were flying jets. Now tell me about the air force that the taliban has? That's right, they have nothing but a few 30 year old AK47s and you fat fucks STILL cant beat them!!

The best of the Brits were bled out in WW1 and WW2 leaving only genetically deficient manlets and Jews. Hence the need to import millions of virile Arabs to replenish the gene pool by coupling with fatwhyte English hambeasts.
Thousands of troops are struggling to lose weight, and thousands have been booted out of the service in recent years because they couldn't.
However, one of the biggest worries concerns those not even in uniform yet: Nearly 2 out of 10 men and 4 out of 10 women of recruiting age weigh too much to be eligible, a record number for that age group.
"This is quickly becoming a national security issue for us. The pool of recruits is becoming smaller," said Col. Gaston Bathalon, an Army nutrition expert.
Unless weight rules are relaxed, "we're going to have a harder time fielding an Army," he said.

England has a single pathetic aircraft carrier but can't afford any fighters for it, now it rusts away. Begged America for F-35's but they're all headed for Saudi Arabia.
Actually we paid up for them and were involved in the research behind it. Not surprising considering we developed V/STOL aircraft first back in the 50s.
