    The Syrian Crisis

    Trump's letter to Erdogan. Earlier I thought it was a prank image created by the Onion, but apparently the White house has confirmed that it is an authentic letter.

    The Syrian Crisis

    So, Murica had given nukes to Turkey and they have graduated to the process of making their own, and everyone was preaching India when we made our own. Let Turkey have the bomb, it will send shivers down European nations in the vicinity. Now they'll know what it feels like to live in a nuclear...

    The Syrian Crisis

    China was poorer than us in the 90's. Nuff said. China managed it despite their poor economy in the 90's. We managed to squander it. How is it that we were too poor to allocate even 5% to RnD but we had 100% cash to buy ready made weapons from Russia for 3 decades? Besides, it doesn't take...

    The Syrian Crisis

    The sanctions themselves were a result of our political calculation to side with the Soviets (which was fine as a policy). The US banned India from acquiring tech as a result, which is fine too, but somehow our industry failed to absorb manufacturing capabilities even from the Soviets? Could...

    The Syrian Crisis

    Turkey is surrounded by water on 3 sides and yet they picked a fight with the only land borders they have with everyone. It was in their interest to keep that area pacified so that it acts as a trade transit route. They've locked themselves in by picking a fight with all border nations. No...

    The Syrian Crisis

    That particular area overlooking the Caspian sea is a very juicy inflection point. Every major power wants to catch a hold of it because it allows them to choke naval shipping lanes of others in future conflicts. Every major power has tried to play "capture the flag" over that area, in the...

    The Syrian Crisis

    "Mistakenly shelled"? the whole conflict is about Turkey hitting US bases to drive them out of the area, because of American support to Kurdish YPG. Who else is left in Northern Syria after 5 years of battle. In a strange twist of fate, now Iran and the US are aligned over this issue. Iran...

    The Syrian Crisis

    Tens of thousands of people have fled their homes in northern Syria, as Turkish forces step up their cross-border offensive on Kurdish-held areas. ...so you're saying that when an invasion happens, the civilians flee away from the invading forces? what a surprise! Some dimwits here think that...

    The Syrian Crisis

    I didn't say we have to send troops to M.E. We must start pushing our weight in our own neighborhood under the SAME excuse used by the US to meddle in M.E. It's none other than the US which is the reason Pakistan is still thriving and safe. Let's hit them and see what the US has to say about...

    The Syrian Crisis

    Seems plausible. That's the reason they fired 120+ missiles at all the targets in total. They were expecting some of them to be intercepted. They were probably testing the threshold for the Russian defense system to get overwhelmed by a swarm of missiles. India has issued a statement telling...
