Anyone notice the similarity between China's 50th anniv. parade and Hitler's military parade just before he invaded Poland?

Is this a Polish joke?

Or is China really getting ready to invade Poland?

There was something very odd about that parade. Most of the military trucks, tanks etc in the parade had WHITEWALL TIRES. These are out of date and hard to find anyhow in the truck sizes. They want their weapons to look good. Also as noted in an earlier post today,the marching women all looked exactly alike, same hair color, hairdo, uniform, boots,etc.

Totalitarian societies often show off their armaments. This is an implied threat to their enemies (foreign and domestic). Free societies are more likely to show off their arts, bridges, dams, internet sites, commerce, parks, etc.
