given the details that have emerged, their actions seem perfectly justified. Why should they have to risk their lives anymore than necessary?

Nah, Canada has top favorability, but India is definitely favorably viewed. In the top 10.

Has Taiwan stepped up training? With an increase in training time/flying time more crashes are expected, though 2 in 1 week may be a cause for concern. depends really.

does your behind hurt much? lol Anyways the speed with which the title was changed vs certain other posters, with HongWu as the shining posterchild, is rather telling.

I don't think it will change much of anything on its own. Yes it is a more powerful weapon, but the major players that this sort of system would be economically useful on are nuclear powers. It is another tool in an arsenal prepared for war, but it won't lower the bar for confrontation imo when...

the few emoticons are my own addition :oops: Also a comment from the comments section http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-torpedo-dolphins-20130518,0,7621822.story what a hoot!:woot:

I'm surprised even that exists to the public eye given the police state nature of China and its internet. Any movement brought to the public eye would obviously be quashed quickly and ruthlessly.

Lol you seriously have no clue. Huge boost in US oil output set to transform global market | 89.3 KPCC

displacing the US dollar as the sole currency will not happen bar some cataclysm that leaves China untouched and economically prosperous and all other major countries devastated both economically and physically. There was a reason the US dollar became the sole international currency aside from...

The rants about the US have been ongoing since our country's birth, and they really took off vitriolically post WW2.

*sigh* That is too simplistic. Political and economic stability is a big factor, and gdp alone says nothing. Manufacturing economy = stability is also too simplistic, and beside the point in anycase, the US, is stillone of the largest manufacturing powers in the world, Just because our service...

RIP to our soldiers. I'd probably be banned if I posted a smiley with news of dead Pakistani Soldiers or dead Chinese soldiers, not that I have any sick inclination to in any case.

What ever gave you the idea that the government is failing? I suppose it depends on your definition, but the legitimacy of the executive branch, the legislative branch, and the judicial branch is still strong. It is true that congress is locked in a partisan deadlock, but the government isn't...
