  1. I think foreign forces had a hand in the insurrection that unconstitutionally ousted Yanuckovitch's govt in Ukraine. Something similar was recently done in Kazakhstan. I also think that US riots during the summer of 2020 seemed suspiciously like an attempt to destabilize the constitutionally elected govt of Donald Trump. But of course when other Americans rioted right back in Jan-6-2021, then suddenly that was declared to be an illegitimate insurrection -- and also magically declared to be "white supremacist." It seems like Euro-centrist lobbies are acting as kingmakers by deciding who gets to be declared "white supremacist" and delegitimized/repudiated, in order to keep their American vassal state in its place.

  4. Why the hell did Beijing build such a dam, if losing it could cause so much destruction? Building many smaller dams would have been far smarter.

  5. Biden is working his hardest to ensure people want to run away from the US Dollar. "Build Back Better" (Build & buy votes with other people's money), "Inflation Rescue Act" (pour more monetary gasoline on the inflation fire). The bottom line is the rest of the world wants to get off this merry-go-round that's dictated by a small number of elites in the USA. For these elites to then laugh and sneer, "You'll come crawling back, you have nowhere else to go!" only incentivizes more determination for emancipation from their ugly racket. The wheels are falling off this scam, because it's being abused to the hilt. Every monopoly falls into corruption and triggers its own demise - the US Dollar is no magical exception.

  6. ISIS-K is being armed by Pakistan, which uses them to exert pressure on the Taliban (This is the same ISIS-K which blew up 13 young US marines at Kabul airport in August 2021)

  8. Congratulations on this very informative report - very well done. Territorially, Australia reminds me a bit of Canada, with its barren but resource-rich north, with the population concentrated in the southeast. But meanwhile regionally it's a bit like Britain, as an island nation located off the coast of a major continent, and seeking US help as a balancer. I'd find it hard to believe Australia could shift its mooring away from the United States, since China would not be a reliable or trusted protector. I'm not sure Australia has the power projection clout to prevent the rise of warlordism and piracy in places like Indonesia or Papua New Guinea. Those areas are pretty populated, and it would take a lot of manpower to secure them.

  9. "The moment you discriminate (sic) a group of people, that group will be isolated from society. Over time, that isolation will force that group to unite among their own kind, which is exactly the opposite of integration... Over time the isolated group will radicalize as their ideology will become their sole pillar of strength and unity. This is historically how persecuted and oppressed people radicalize." So how come this problem never occurred for Muslim societies which practiced and continue to practice discrimination against non-Muslim minorities? If the answer is that Muslim majorities have been brutal enough to crush dissenters and minorities, then what does that say about Islam?

  10. If it wasn't for us, you'd all be speaking Pashto right now. Article 370 will be removed, and non-Muslim minority refugees will be resettled to Kashmir.

  11. The more you adopt Islamist xenophobic sectarianism and ethnically cleanse the non-Muslim minorities like Kashmiri Pandits and Buddhists, the more you will isolate yourselves. If it wasn't for our sacrifices, there would be no Kashmir and you'd be speaking Pashto today.

  12. Umer Javed No, we will indeed talk about the history of PAKISTANI FLIP-FLOPPING. We will not ignore these facts just because it embarrasses you and exposes your credibility as garbage. Please explain why your Jinnah rejected the UN Resolution. Please explain why your Pakistan rejected this resolution for decades. The only reason why Pakistan suddenly embraced the UN resolution many decades later, was because it found that one it had nuclear weapons, it had a shield to hide behind while injecting jihadist violence into the Valley. The non-Muslims of the world will not accept being held hostage to jihadism -- especially nuclear-backed jihadism. Yours is a medieval irredentist ideology.

  13. Haqqani group are the most aggressive, but Pakistan supports far more than them. Pakistan supports the entire Taliban insurgency against the United States, killing and maiming American soldiers with impunity, while demanding billions in US aid in return.
    1
  14. Haqqani group has already done plenty of prior attacks to prove their wickedness. They continue to arm and train others to commit further attacks. Butcher of Kabul Gulbuddin Hekmatyar was Pakistan's previous stooge in Afghanistan, before Pak created Taliban. So don't complain to me about Hekmatyar's butchery when your Pak Army was supporting him when he did it. Pak only abandoned Hekmatyar after he refused to endorse the Durand Line, and while he failed to make headway against Masoud in the north. You shits created the Taliban - you wouldn't be suffering now if you hadn't created them - now you're crying because some of your creation has turned against you. And yet still the Pak Army won't abandon Taliban or trying to use them to convert Afghanistan into their client state. As Mrs Clinton correctly said, you shouldn't grow snakes in your backyard to bite the neighbors, or you'll get bitten - not that you're learning any lessons from her warning.

  15. "Caste system" is an english phrase created by english rulers. "John Smith" means "John the blacksmith", "Tom Carver" means "Tom the woodcarver", "Ed Fisher" means "Edward the fisherman", and so on. Likewise, Indians have various socio-economic groupings and ethnicities, just as everyone else does. As India's economy liberalizes and develops, a fluid economy renders such things vestigeal. You Muslims have least amount of knowledge of other cultures. so you're least capable of judging others in your ignorance. It's not like Pakistan is an egalitarian country.

  16. Donny G, Sure it is - just because Pakistan doesn't recognize it, doesn't make it otherwise

  17. Umer Javed These are all events from 70 years ago - the better part of a century - the debate is now academic. Just like India's UN Resolution on Kashmir from 70 years ago is now merely academic. The fact that Pakistani irredentists continue to throw tantrums and pursue destructive conflict over the matter is a reflection on their own self-destructive behavior.

  18. OnceUponATimeThereWasAPersonWithALongUsername.TheElongationOfThatUsernameWasPlainlyLegendary you are once again demonstrating that you don't even know what the word "equivocation" means - you keep doing this over and over. You're a Pakistani pretending to be an American, I see - that's why you keep defending Pakistan's invasion and occupation of Baluchistan.
    1
  19. OnceUponATimeThereWasAPersonWithALongUsername.TheElongationOfThatUsernameWasPlainlyLegendary again, you keep using the word "equivocation" in a way that shows you don't know what the word means. Look it up in a dictionary, man. Pakistan militarily invaded Balochistan in April of 1948, and forced the Khan of Kalat to sign a treaty of accession. So basically they acquired Balochistan at gunpoint, and not by voluntary merger. You're a Pakistani masquerading as an American, aren't you?

  20. OnceUponATimeThereWasAPersonWithALongUsername.TheElongationOfThatUsernameWasPlainlyLegendary again, go look up the word "equivocation" in the dictionary - that word doesn't mean what you think it means. As Pakistani, I don't think your own command of english is that great - you've got too many illiterates among you.

  21. OnceUponATimeThereWasAPersonWithALongUsername.TheElongationOfThatUsernameWasPlainlyLegendary "our face" - so you ARE Pakistani - why do you hide behind an avatar pic of an American? You probably live in the USA but don't really identify with it, right? You remind me of that guy Ahmad Khan Rahami who grew up in the USA but was still making trips back to Pakistan to get brainwashed by Taliban. Then he set off the bombs in NYC and NJ.

  22. Aditya He's like that guy in the news - Ahmad Khan Rahami - growing up in the USA but hating on it and masturbating over his beloved Pakistan instead. These guys are ticking time-bombs -- eventually their fanaticism will lead them to blow up something in the infidel land surrounding them -- the land that they hate. All guys like him can do is keep a hard-on for his beloved failed state Pakistan. They have this romantic view of the place, and don't see it for what it really is. Another Rahami harami in training (sigh).

  23. ***** Stop trying to fuel separatism in Indian Kashmir. There is no special exception here - if you do it against us, we'll do it against you. Don't forget, your country has already been broken in 1971, and can be broken again.

  25. ***** Communist/socialist ideology may be undergoing a revival in the West, thanks to the infiltration of their media and academia by the socialist movement. But communism in Russia is dead and gone. It's more worthwhile that the Western world devote attention to eradicating communism from its own midst, rather than picking fights with erstwhile former communist states where that ideology holds no political sway whatsoever.

  26. Mawao Myers What's your point man - some of you have fought wars over how many angels can dance on the head of a pin - what superiority are you claiming or speaking from?

  27. ***** you Russophobes keep oscillating between contradictory arguments. On the one hand you typically claim that Putin is an expansionist dictator who is unpopular at home. Then on the other hand, you say that Russians are actually in love with Putin and his expansionism, and this is all very popular among Russians. Please make up your mind on which fiction you wish to peddle - they both can't work at the same time, because they're contradictory. I sense that you want to trot out a cocktail of different arguments, and then switch between them regardless of the lack of internal consistency. I don't think you Socialist One Worlders will succeed in subverting either American national sovereignty or anyone else's, because local people know better than to be sucked in by your claptrap. I also see that you want to adopt the methods of your alleged enemies - you want to create socialist dictatorship in America and steer it into war against your hated Russian enemy, whom you also imagine to be a socialist dictatorship. Nobody wants to be hijacked by you and your socialist jihad. Just remember - Stalin himself was a minority, and that's why he committed so many abuses, since he was trying to build up his massive dictatorship state to impose his will on larger ethnic groups that he himself traditionally saw as threatening to himself. Obama the minority has sought to do the same in America, treating the bulk of the American population as his adversaries - like a Tail Which Wants to Wag the Dog.

  29. Paul G that's a retarded Straw Man Argument - "caste system" is an english phrase - no such equivalent phrasing exists in any local Indian language, which shows that no such system exists. This phrase came into existence during the period of British rule, whereby they tried to describe their Indian subjects using language similar to their own British Feudal System of which they were highly proud. The crucial difference is that unlike Britain, their Indian colony was economically stagnant, particularly in the villages, where people have continued to live in the same conditions they lived in centuries ago. What India has isn't really a caste system, but rather the same time type of tribalism and socio-economic fragmentation which exist in any part of the world - including the United States and Britain. Just because the British slapped their phrase "caste system" onto Indians, doesn't make it true.

  31. By forcing society to always keep looking over its shoulder to ensure that certain groups are appeased and made to feel loved, then social blackmail is being legitimized. It should be up to each individual or group of individuals to manage their relations with others and their own credibility. By making this a state responsibility, it opens up a can of worms which would encourage anyone and everyone to solicit state involvement on any pretext of alienation. Such a situation is simply not viable in the long run.

  32. Shirwan has shown his bias - not just on the Kashmir issue - but also on past reporting of events in ancient Islamic history. I've called him out on this stuff before.

  33. Rohingya insurgency in Myanmar would meet same fate as Tamil insurgency in Sri Lanka. Just as Sri Lanka took military assistance from China in getting heavy weapons supplies to smash the LTTE, likewise Myanmar would similarly obtain heavier arms from China to crush any Rohingya insurgents with extreme prejudice. An increasingly cash-strapped Saudi Arabia will be in no position to continue creating enemies abroad by arming insurgents. On the contrary - more Muslim insurgencies only adds up to more Muslim travel bans in the future.

  36. @Neptunian1000, Read Prime Minister Gilani's latest spech to the parliament - he is vowing to use "full force" if American forces conduct another incursion into Pakistan. Does this sound like a counter-balance to the hawkish Army? No - in his speech he gave a clean chit to the army and ISI, and fully blamed the USA and international community for Bin Laden's presence in his country! Sorry, but this is called being a puppet. If this doesn't qualify as puppet behavior, then I don't know what will.

  37. China wins if the US continues to myopically focus on Russia. The reality is that China has backed Putin's invasion of Ukraine for a reason, and Putin would have never dared invade without it. Even since the first few weeks of the invasion conflict, China quickly brought its island fortresses in the South China Sea to full military operational readiness, so that it now has full military dominance in the South China Sea. China has also signed a military agreement with the Solomon Islands that could see a Chinese military base built there. If that happens, then Australia will be flanked from its more populated eastern side, and its sea lanes of communication to the United States would be in jeopardy. I think Putin knows that things will be happening elsewhere in the world that will make his move on Ukraine pale by comparison.

  38. The children of Bin Laden are still there in Afghanistan, and ISIS-K are one of them. They may have splintered into multiple factions, but ISIS-K have emerged as the strongest. That's why the US can't afford to let its guard down, because these children are trying to make a comeback, so that they can strike again.

  39. ​ @FHD SnSLifestyle 2K - with that illusory "stability" comes opacity and corruption, along with the ability for large bubbles to form -- until they burst catastrophically. Their system promotes groupthink, which can lead to large-scale capital misallocation. Look at ghost cities. Look at the ridiculous schemes like the One Child Policy -- do you think that won't have massive repercussions? Their birth rate is already so low that they can't even fix it now. They have instability under the surface, but it's just the kind that accrues and accrues until it erupts volcanically.

  40. ​ @FHD SnSLifestyle 2K - I don't know which sample set you're comparing China against or why. Clearly China's growth is slowing down, and clearly Xi Jinping's govt is cracking down on Chinese society, from tech companies to celebrities to leisure groups. Since China has survived for thousands of years, as you say, then what makes CCP so necessary or indispensable for this? How are China's current ruling elite even communists, other than in name? Where do they truly derive their mandate from?

  41. ​ @FHD SnSLifestyle 2K - communism was just a pretext for one-party rule. What's the need for communism now? The rulers don't like to give up the power they have. Dictatorship only breeds corruption. Dictator Xi Jinping only wants to engage in confrontation & hostility towards the rest of the world, so that he can rally the Chinese people around him, to avoid them calling for his removal.

  42. ​ @FHD SnSLifestyle 2K - America's economic bubbles are less severe in comparison to problems like Evergrande. China's ghost cities still haven't filled up, and the real estate companies are collapsing. Look at China's demographics -- One Child Policy from dictatorship will only mean a population skewed toward the elderly.

  43.  @2KSnSLifestyle  - crackdown is not against their monopolies, since they compete among themselves. Crackdown is to ensure they don't threaten the monopoly of the state. Xi Jinping wants to show them all who's boss - he wants them to bend their knee to him. China's political system is not based on legalism - that's just your latest spin. Next week you'll replace legalism with some other new phrase. You guys say something different each time - no credibility. China's system is based on dictatorship, and the dictatorship keeps trying to reinvent its image into something new. God-emperor Xi Jinping wants everyone to bow to him, and so he has squashed down all his rivals in the party. Xi is now trying to extend China's imperialism abroad.

  44. ​ @FHD SnSLifestyle 2K - Evergrande and real estate collapse are ample evidence. Xi's unprovoked crackdown against society is more evidence. Dictator is nervous - he's paranoid about losing power, and so he lashes out at every shadow and flicker.

  46. ​ @FHD SnSLifestyle 2K - America's transparency allows economic bubbles to be fully exposed. Meanwhile China's opaque statist system allows bubbles to grow to alarming proportions. Evergrande is far over-leveraged beyond its actual assets. All kinds of international analysts have warned of severe consequences for China's real estate market, and for its wider economy which depends on it. China has shrunk its population at the cost of aging its population. An aging workforce is not going to be able to overcome the middle income trap. On the contrary, it will only make China more feeble.

  47. ​ @FHD SnSLifestyle 2K - "the Chinese model" - this is no model for emulation, this is the diktat of an authoritarian dictatorship. America isn't restricted to 2 parties, and independent candidates are certainly allowed to run. Freedom of choice in choosing the leadership is what enables Americans to oppose corruption. Meanwhile in China, the powerful and corrupt only get more powerful and more corrupt. Where is Peng Shuai?
