Looks like these morons have a vocabulary that's limited to two words, "Allahu Akhbar!" However, I'm reasonably certain that those aren't the morons that NATO has picked to run the country. They'll get their 15 minutes of fame before the real rulers take over and start to divvy up the oil concessions, especially the ones that the 30,000 evacuated Chinese oil workers were servicing.
Personally, I give the Chinese high marks for their handling of the situation. Since they weren't able to do a God-damn thing about it, they never even tried. They just concentrated on getting their men out, which they did very successfully with no casualties. Don't know how much equipment, if any, they were able to salvage. But in the meantime, and for avoidance of this kind of nonsense in the future, they've already gutted one vintage Russian carrier, rebuilt her to state-of-the-art and when she finishes her shakedown cruise, they are going to build another three from scratch. Next time "the West" or NATO makes another grab for oil fields that China has a working interest in, it probably won't be such a cake-walk. Slow and methodical, China won't be rushed.
