That makes sense, by killing tourists they are more likely to dominate the international news headlines. No doubt they are trying to inspire similar attacks across the rest of the world as well.

What confuses me, is why would they hit the Christians first, I thought their beef was with the Sri Lankan Buddhists to begin with.

So the USA bullied India and forced them to submit on the Iran sanctions (India now says they won't buy any more Iranian oil... despite India's desperate need for cheap oil), they destroyed their strategic hopes at Chabahar port, they humiliated them by saying that India did not shoot down an...

What about the Hindu Nationalists in India who claim that there are around 30 million illegal Bangladeshi Muslims in India?

Good action on his behalf. :tup:

Both China and Pakistan need to think of economic development first, and politics second. :tup: We are both nuclear powers, we don't need to focus so much on the outside world, internal development must be the highest priority. There will always be outside forces trying to destabilise us...

I walk on the street every day and I can tell you for sure where Pakistan is on the map. If you check my past posts I have always said that Pakistan has a vital strategic location, as the only country to border East Asia (through China), South Asia, Central Asia and the greater Middle East...

Because China is so desperate for money right? Technology transfer is a sensitive topic, especially when it comes to military technology. The relationship between China and Pakistan is not a business relationship, it's a strategic one. If it was just about money, then China has enough cash...

Donald Trump is coming to save Muslim refugees? Does that sound out of character for him? The USA wants more influence in Myanmar to counter Chinese influence there. Not to mention that Donald Trump's far-right Islamophobia shares more similarity with the Buddhist mobs of Myanmar than with the...

IS will never be gone, before that they were called the Syrian rebels and Al-Nusra, before that they were called the Iraqi insurgency, before that they were Al-Qaeda. The large Sunni populations of Iraq and Syria are not happy with being ruled by those from other sects. It was always a time...

That's true, Iran has always been skeptical of Chinese influence, whether in terms of investment/goods/weapons. Whereas the Gulf Arabs have always been enthusiastic to buy from China, including large-scale weapon deals. But it also serves China's interests to ignore US sanctions, which is why...

China and Iran have a fundamental problem in the bilateral relationship, and that is that the Gulf Arabs have always been much more enthusiastic about Chinese investment, goods and even large-scale weapons sales. Iran on the other hand has always tried to keep a distance from China, and have...

I can't see any chance of Trump losing. Bernie Sanders is a maniac who thinks the Boston bomber should have a vote, and Joe Biden is literally Harvey Weinstein, King of Perverts. I could be wrong of course, but I just don't see it. Especially after the Mueller report. Iran will be fine either...

Trump will win in 2020, guaranteed. :enjoy: He was going to win anyway, but the Mueller report exonerating him from Russian collusion was the icing on the cake. The character of the USA has fundamentally changed. All those principles upon which the US was founded, Trump's new America is the...

When you say Iran should "do something", you know the effective thing for them to do would be to build nukes right? Like North Korea, then they can have Trump bending over and kissing their backsides all day? :P

Supply-side policies like these (improving education, health, housing, infrastructure, etc.) are the best path towards long-term national competitiveness. It will take a while for the effects to kick in though, so some degree of political patience is needed. Generally when it comes to economic...

I was surprised as well, I thought Honor would do very well in India. And the Kirin 710 is a very efficient/powerful chipset for budget phones.

The US says it doesn't matter, for 5G the difference between the core and the periphery will be essentially gone.

:china::pakistan: :welcome:

Our justice system in Hong Kong is far too lenient, these Umbrella Movement leaders are 100% traitors and should be locked away on a permanent basis.
