Rus is taking a big risk concentrating so many a/c in the open air. building concrete HAS takes time and space seems limited, atleast disperse them around the place if the ISIS or their benefactors provide a few Scuds to ISIS....we have seen in yemen war what that can do to open airbases. I was thi...

U.S.: Russia jets tried stealth mode http://www.cnn.com/2015/09/24/politics/syria-russian-fighter-jets/index.html A U.S. official told CNN Thursday that Russian fighter jets turned off their transponders as they flew into Syria in an apparent attempt to avoid detection. The official said the fighte...

No matter how much we laugh here at BR, the americans think that they are the smartest. A debacle such as Iraq 2 doesnt seem to have enlightened the likes of TSJones and other fireeaters. The irony is <snip> like TSJones are rooting for a government that sacrifices its own people for geopolitical g...

US officials have also expressed fears Russia may strike the Western-backed rebels fighting Assad and ultimately risk a confrontation with forces fighting IS. This is where we find out if the Russians still have any cojones left. Clearly the US is desperate to protect its ISIS and other jihadi pals...

Somehow I like the boisterous Trump to the "genuflecting to the Arabs" rubber spine incumbent or the first lady of the US. Ms. Obama probably would beat Ms. Clinton when the rubber hits the road. She would give no quarters to either ISIS or the harem dreaming Boko haram haramis. She would...

RamaY, your serial-reporting of A_Gupta's posts is not having the intended effects. A permanent ban if you post once more in this thread. Y Kanan, easy there. A_Gupta said he is not going to respond.

I have posted both positive Bangladesh news, and negative news, and negative opinion about Bangladesh's future on this thread. My eyes are open. I'm not sure why it gets the pessimists' undies in twist if someone is optimistic about Bangladesh. On the Islam topic, I will not respond to Y. Kanan on ...

Y. Kanan

A_Gupta, RoyG - you're either shockingly naive or willfully ignorant about the true nature of Islamic society. The philosophy of peaceful coexistence with other faiths is in fundamental conflict with the intent and spirit of the Koran and general Islamic thought. There is no historical precedent of ...

Y. Kanan

Are any BR-ites still under the illusion that Bangladesh is anything but another Pakistan in the making? This nasty society is going to be nothing but a continued source of violence and grief for our country; there is absolutely no hope that "moderates" are going to hold any sway in Bangla...

Imagine an Indian who is 38 years old today. He was a teenager in 1993. He witnessed the Mumbai bomb blasts, read the news and understood that Pakistan supported the terrorists. Maybe he echoed his father in anger and grief. Over the next 20 years he sees that India is still trying to be friends wi...

Another day, another horrific terrorist attack, another thread of BR'ites clamoring for a "befitting reply". How many years (decades?) has this been going on, and people here still naively expect retribution? We're not going to do a damned thing, because this country is too weak, too divid...

Whoever it was earlier in this that confidently predicted a Houthi victory in Yemen was clearly delusional, as I told him at the time: http://www.aljazeera.com/news/2015/07/yemen-humanitarian-pause-effect-150726200512350.html The Saudis have retaken the capital Aden and their proxy fighters (AQAP, S...

How exactly is India backstabbing Iran? We are continuing with work on Chabahar, in the process of paying our oil dues, calling for greater multilateral cooperation to minimize tensions, etc. There will be missteps especially under a very corrupt center, but the Iranians know that. Overall things h...

Long before India "snubbed" them, they were already supporting Islamists in Kashmir, their news channels were and are indulging anti-Indian propaganda with respect to Kashmir. Even before Ayotollahs, the secular Shah was in allaince with pakis and actually gave pakis access to hid their p...

Y. Kanan

We'll have to agree to disagree as you seem to interpret events based on a foregone conclusion that Iran is some sort of aggressive Persian empire in the making (or something). I don't see it, but fair enough. But one thing we'd have to agree on, is that India wasted a valuable opportunity by snubbi...

Y. Kanan

Are you serious? I like your optimism but we must be reading different news reports. Iran's moves have been reactive, not part of some grand plan. They've been desperately moving to defend themselves against encirclement and destabilization from all sides. Iran has actually lost a great deal of infl...

KSA's extreme reaction to the Houthi makes me think the regime has real fears of a Shia uprising within their own borders. This is a country whose military has always been very lukewarm about getting engaged in real combat. They barely even contributed to the first Gulf War in 1991, and this was whe...

Of course, oil prices will be fcuked due to all this, and it will cause pain in India and China. Maybe its all for the greater good - we'll move towards an Ethanol economy then. I'm surprised people are still pushing ethanol. Do some research on the energy-in\energy-out equation for ethanol. And do...

As the whole world is coming forward to combat ISIS, I would like to share here my opinion regarding how to fight ISIS and eventually obliterate them just like the Sri Lankan military defeated the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) just six years ago. ISIS, as an offshoot of Al Qaeda, continue...

Y. Kanan

Kannan he is quite clear. He thinks ISIS is a US and KSA joint project and went awry. Many Western commentators also say same. Of course ISIS is a US\Saudi\Qatari project. I'm the one who pushed that theory the hardest. Which is why I sincerely hope the Russians and Iranians are doing the same thin...

Y. Kanan

I wonder if Russia and Iran are both behind the Houthi rebellion? It seems to me that without Russian support, the Houthi are doomed. Iranian support alone will not be enough. I'd be kind of surprised if Iran helped engineer the Houthi rebellion all on its own, without partnering up with Russia in ...

they can do plenty of damage to Russia just with increasingly harsh sanctions and economic isolation; arming Ukraine isn't even necessary. only in short term. In long term they can do a Soviet.

This is modern warfare. Drones scope out the coordinates and confirm with visuals, real-time. Seconds later, missiles come in. Total precision. PRC has thousands, tens of thousands of these things.

I do like the idea of having the exotics in positions of power, eg -- a sikh in charge of california (preferrably not leaning towards khalistan), and a brownie in LA.

If that was a goal, they failed miserably. The ruble has plunged and the dollar is stronger than ever.
