  1. ​ @da bo - that's not true - you're speaking without knowing what happened, and are spontaneously making things up. I've experienced this problem a lot with Chinese posters. China never gave any ultimatum, they just showed up on the disputed land. Mao wasn't the kind of guy who gave advance notice, he just grabbed things. Whole reason China invaded Tibet is because Mao's reforms failed badly, and caused mass starvation. So he bailed himself out by marching into country nextdoor and saying "it was always ours". Similar thing going on with BRI. China found trade situation challenging with Trump, and so it suddenly decided to march west again, and is now harassing India once more. Now Trump is gone, and suddenly Beijing is much less interested in BRI, and is now interested in cutting deals with Putin. These are all just stunts, and not some wise foolproof plan. If Russia collapses, NATO could be on China's western border, asking Mongolia to join.

  2.  @3limabean  - given the higher voter turnout of these Vote Banks compared to the rest of the Canadian population, Justin is banking on those Vote Banks to deliver him disproportionate benefits. That's why he indulges in Vote Bank politics.

  5. India needs to counter at China's sensitive places which are far from Indian border. Places like Pacific islands where Modi is now visiting. These places are sensitive for China's vital shipping traffic that sustains its economy. By countering China in the Pacific islands, it will create a lot of anxiety for China over there.

  6.  @neilkamalseal3413  - man, you don't make a spear out of fibers - that's not the right structure to be strong for that purpose. You're just arguing for the sake of arguing, and you sound ridiculous. I've worked in industry with fiber-loaded composites, and that's not the right use for them. Spear is not merely meant to be electrical, it's supposed to primarily have hardness and stiffness.

  10. ​ @Sowmitri Swamy - no, Imran Khan does not deserve automatic citizenship in India, because as a Muslim he already has a country called Pakistan. That's not religious discrimination by us, that's a reflection of reality. Meanwhile, persecuted minorities inside of Pakistan are victims of the partition India helped carry out, and so therefore they are owed remedy by India, which helped put them in the predicament they're in. If I give blood transfusion to someone who has lost blood, and don't give it to someone who hasn't, then you want to craftily call that discrimination. That is a crooked definition by you, and a misapplication of the concept of discrimination. You sound as ridiculous as King Solomon, who declared a baby must be split in 2 halves for each of the disputing parents.

  11. ​ @Sowmitri Swamy - certainly US has preferential immigration for certain persecuted groups. Look at immigration for Jews from Russia/USSR. Look at automatic asylum for Cuban refugees. Whether the group is defined by religion is merely incidental. The issue is that not all people have equal claim to being persecuted.

  12. If India experiences another Pulwama type attack, we should both retaliate with another Balakot type strike and also hit Pakistan with a Pulwama type attack while denying it like they do. We should give them double the trouble.

  22.  @danniemoore97  - plenty of photos and videos of Nijjar not only posing with guns, but running a training camp to teach Sikh youths how to shoot automatic weapons and sniper rifles. What innocent purpose was this for? How many deaths does it take for Canadian authorities to act? Let me remind you that Canadian security personnel accompanied the Air India bombers while they tested their explosives, and yet still let the 1985 Air India bombing happen. It was the worst act of terrorism in Canada's history, killing 329 people, including 268 Canadian citizens, as well as the worst act of aviation terrorism in history prior to 9/11. Likewise, those 9/11 bombers knew to use Canada as their entry route to commit their attacks, because of Canada's well-deserved reputation as an easy route for their ilk. Canada is a breeding ground for terror - it's only a matter of time until the consequences of this catch up with it.

  23.  @rajchowdhury3006  economics is not a pure science - all economics is completely tainted by politics. Often, these economists take a position based on their own politics, and then they just look for data that will support their own political views. This is called cherrypicking - you use any data you've found which supports you, and ignore any data which doesn't. They don't arrive at conclusions based on evidence, they pick and choose evidence which matches their conclusions.

  24. Turkish elections could leave Erdogan weaker and relying even more on stirring anger against foreign provocations. So I don't think Sweden's chances will improve, just as I don't think public disorder problem in Sweden will improve.

  25. ​ @M - Even funnier fact: USA knew about Pak misbehavior, and tolerated it. They claimed they had to be gentle with "scary nuclear" Pakistan. Yet same US doesn't mind getting rough with Russia, which has world's largest nuclear weapons arsenal. Go figure. Americans just brazenly make up any ridiculous arguments on the fly, and peddle them with a straight face, just like they now defend their senile president Dhritarashtra.🙄

  28. Don't respect that bastard. He spits most of his venom at India. He's the first to welcome Taliban takeover of Afghanistan. He deserves to be called Taliban Khan. If that bastard didn't want US coming to his country to do drone attacks, then why did Pakistan cause 9-11 attacks in the first place? They even sheltered Osama for 10 years following 9-11. Imrand Han is a worthless hypocrite, and his country has earned all the misery it has reaped.

  33. So when Orban wants to protect his country from illegal migration, then he's attacked and punished by EU. But when Finland builds its wall to stop refugee migrants from crossing its eastern border (as explicitly stated by Finnish PM), then Finland gets rewarded with NATO membership. How are these double standards reconcilable? Oh, that's right - they're not. :face-fuchsia-wide-eyes:

  34. I don't agree - institutional integrity was destroyed when Congress decided that continuation of its existence - which M K Gandhi wanted discontinued - was more important than India's own existence. Institutional integrity was destroyed when Banyan Tree Nehru began oppressing political opponents instead of allowing a flourishing democracy of many political voices. Institutional integrity was destroyed when Congress coattail-riders decided to install daughter Indira as their next queen in an hereditary monarchy instead of respecting the fact that India is a republic (which by definition is opposed to being an hereditary dynasty). Institutional integrity was further destroyed with further generations of hereditary dynasty, because the morally bankrupt Congress can only borrow ideas (like monarchy) from others when it has no good ideas of its own. The latest idea Congress has now borrowed is the FBI Director James Comey ruckus idea - and that is why this Alok Verma drama has been staged.

  40. @@AijazWani-yp7kq - no, "caste" is an artificial label created by British (it's an english word which nobody else used before British came). Likewise, Arabs complain that their current borders were artificially created by the British. These British-created divisions ("caste" and border), are responsible for various troubles been seen today.

  41. Unfortunately, we cannot remain blind to the physics of the situation, which continues from the past into the present. America's Atlanticists obsessively want to keep fighting Russia forever. This means they will keep repeating the mistakes of the Cold War past, again and again. So this physics is not a mere extrapolation, but a continuing reality.

  42. I feel that in long run, Bollywood tries to follow Hollywood. Likewise, business for Hollywood has changed. Because of pandemic, movie theatres closed down while home streaming services became much bigger. Even before pandemic, big-budget TV serials like Game of Thrones had already become a big hit, showing that it could eclipse big cinema movies with its success. Many tried to imitate Game of Thrones and failed, because they didn't really understand its formula, which was based on political intrigue. But now lessons have been learned, and there are a number of new hit shows from Hollywood which have reproduced that strong success through better writing. I enjoyed shows like Stranger Things, Cobra Kai, and now Andor. Audiences have become more discriminating, and Bollywood has to improve its offering.

  43. We have certainly not caught up to China, which has an economy 6 times larger than ours (we were same size in early 1980s). Their military is much larger than ours, their industrial manufacturing base is vastly larger than ours. After Soviet Union fell apart, Narasimha Rao moved to push for economic reforms, but was backstabbed by Sonia Gandhi (India's very own Jiang Qing) If Rao's reforms had not been derailed by her, then we would have quickly caught up to China, instead of falling so far behind.
