The Soviet Union had one of the world's most powerful navies all the way up to its collapse. ..............
They had an immensely powerful submarine force, as well as a surface navy that was trained for and capable of launching amphibious assaults anywhere in Northern Europe.

So according to your assertion, this mighty Russian army was eating "Cholay" while their country was collapsing. Typical commie crap!!!
Simply put, mighty mouse Russian navy could not defend economic interests of Russia. They were only good to terrorize others.

What defeated nazi germany was the fact that they lacked the economic resources to fight the war. They could not produce enough war material to fight both against the Soviets in the East and the Allies in the West.

Nazis lost the day Bismarck and Scharnhorst were destroyed by the best navy in the world. You are not even aware that, just before its destruction, Bismarck was running with its tail between the legs. For the rest of the war, German navy was reduced to terrorist activities in the sea.
I do give credit to pre-WWII Japan for producing one of the finest navies in the world. It is interesting to note that Japanese navy was modeled exactly on the British standards.
Adm. Horatio Nelson was as big of a hero for Japanese as he was dear to British. In the end, Japanese did learn a lesson and said good-bye to terrorism. Now thanks to US help, Japan is an economic powerhouse. The same US help was the key for economic success of Singapore, Taiwan, South Korea, Malaysia, and now China. Off course for Mullah-Tullah goons, this concept is really difficult to grasp. Perhaps their “Dimagh Choos” topees are to be blamed.
Bud! You lose navy, you lose your economic interests.
On the other hand, you win when
You raise sea-going fearless men, for trade
You train sea-going fearless men, for war
You build strong navies

The lesson to be learnt is that an Islamic state must either be an economic powerhouse with the economic development and resources to sustain an arms race, or it must wither and die like the Soviet Union did.

Any present day Islamic state is inherently weak and an economic failure. It is run by Mullah-Geery and not by strong business interests. So an Islamic state and an economically successful state are mutually exclusive ideas.
The sooner you accept it, the quicker you will be able to get on with constructive work. Modern economic system is now closely linked with your power to control the sea-lanes. If you can’t protect them, you loose your pants.
Mullah-Tullah goons have made Karachi a no-go area for international businessmen. Destruction of Karachi by nationalists was only the second phase. The previous phase was the Shia-Sunni fasad initiated by Mullah-Tullah goons.
Time to kick some Mullah-Tullah Terrorist A$$
