Syria amassed huge arsenal of Russian weapons before uprising

[Ray]

All countries have a huge arsenal and so if there is a rebellion, it would not be surprising if that huge arsenal is activated.

Pakistan acquired a huge arsenal from the US before launching a massacre on Baluchistan!

Because it is "big?" Whether or not it is a brother to you is besides the point...

And let's not forget that wars and the technologies of death that it spawns give rise to excellent forums like DFI...

Yes, asianobserve, atlast there is one thing we both agree on.

Well, USA loves voyeurism, just like the big brother from that popular show. It just can't resist watching people(countries in this case) going on with their private lives. At times, it feels like summoning the 'troublemakers' and expelling them(attacking them in this case), just like that!

Germany just disbanded half their Army, should be a cakewalk.

That made me laugh, coming from a Frenchman.

Just pulling your leg, don't get offended.

Oh believe me when your super duper dream for India's superpower status (at least for South Asia) becomes a reality you're government will be singularly focused on keeping a tab on practically everything that's happening to the countries within your sphere of influence. Why? Because it's human nature to be at the top of the herd. So don't be sour. In my case I'd rather that the US is sticking its neck out practically everywhere, although I don't know about the American citizenry who foots the bill...
