Corruption hits the Navy

[Fedjack]

The fire on the nuclear submarine 'Miami' (May,2012) is one of the most overwhelming evidences of the total corruption plague attacking the Navy. According to the investigation results the fire occurred cause of a catastrophic worn-out state of the nuclear submarine units. The real scale of the corruption leprosy that slowly, but surely kills the Navy, has finally gone public. Just do a thought, how could an ATOMIC ENGINE UNIT break down on a submarine that belongs to the country with $662 bln. Defense Budget? Do they mess me around?! Everybody understands military office-holders have stolen so much that aren't afraid of lining his pockets with the nuclear submarine repair money.
Do you still believe in Hollywood propaganda rubbish and 'Join the Navy' posters? F*ck these liars and thieves!

If they keep building new toys for big boys it will keep draining the budget. The fat asses in the Pentagon still act as if war with Russia is looming while jihad terrorism is the real enemy. How many stealth bombers do we need or gigantic Aircraft Carriers?
