Good article explaining why Americans need to educate themselves on these issues and not depend on popular media to shape their minds.

The media are misleading the public on Syria - The Boston Globe New recruits trained to fight alongside opposition in Aleppo, Syria. By Stephen Kinzer COVERAGE OF the Syrian war will be remembered as one of the most shameful episodes in the history of the American press. Reporting about...

Even UAE economy is not diversified in Western sense of the concept. They are basically a giant shopping mall where all the rich people of the region go for shopping. It is not like they are manufacturing the next generation of cell phones or designing the next iteration of sound recognition...

"Them" is West. A collection of Western people with Western culture and Western system of social organization. You can not be "Them". Because you have nothing to offer to "Them", just like you do not have anything to offer yourself for that matter. Max you can do is get a PhD in a field...

The notion of "We" arises because you are not "Them". The "Them" has invented and discovered the world you know. You can can join them and live with them by moving to West. You can not become "Them" in your own land. If you had been able to chart your own way, then you would be you. Otherwise...

I agree with you. But a state has the responsibility to take all this into account from beforehand. It has the responsibility to prevent and/or unmask these events for its citizens. It has the responsibility to formulate policies which prevent a nation to be cornered like this. It has the...

Cracks have started to appear and the allies of Saudi Arabia now realize that this horse will not make it to the finish line. Contingency plans will be made and implemented. Ladies and Gentlemen, here we are witnessing history in the making.

Washington Should Prepare for Saudi Arabia's Collapse - The Atlantic It can’t last. The U.S. better get ready. For half a century, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has been the linchpin of U.S. Mideast policy. A guaranteed supply of oil has bought a guaranteed supply of security. Ignoring...

It is all Turkish allies who are pushing Turkey into a corner.

Funny to bring Iran into this. Even US state department has toned down blaming everything on Iran. And for all practical purposes Iran has been ready to make an enduring peace as part of a rapprochement with US: An 'ontology' of Iran-Saudi "rivalry": From Churchill's snobbish sneeze to...

That is very welcome. The end of the policies such as arming Mujahedin against USSR and arming "moderate" cannibal rebels against Syria, would certainly go a long way to contain this menace. Another welcome initiative would be to stop supporting Saudi Arabia spreading Takfirism around the...

Well and good. There is no contention in this. Important is the correct diagnosis, treatment regiments can differ. Only future will decide which treatment was more superior. Top down approach does not work in promotion of science and reason. Only bottom to top progression helps in development...

You are wrong. What you are saying was correct for business and profiteering before industrial revolution when the wealth remained a constant (because of technological limitations) and only its distribution provided any chance to get rich (therefore some had to become poor in order for some to...

No, I was not raising a particular philosophy. I was only raising the need for everyone to accept reality and reason eg Naghdi should accept that he is using Western technologies every day of his life and his criticism of Paris is irrational. Even Scientism is a product of West. My point was, we...

Put a sock on it and take your anger to the battlefield. I had quoted a Western news. You have a problem with that, go and talk to your allies in West. This is actually done to get US accept YPG as a terror organization. Erdogan was getting very vocal on the issue of US accepting YPG as such...

Yeah. But Obama also went along to use diplomacy as an anesthetic to let Russia bomb the crap out of everyone who is opposing Assad: Diplomacy as anesthetic in Syria - The Washington Post A successful operation needs a surgeon and a anesthesiologist to work together as a team. Obama is the...

One problem with our diplomats is they become very cheap when they are sent to make a deal. Always haggling. Always going for smallest amount of purchase for the cheapest price. Their bazari brain does not allow them to see the bigger picture. I hope they do not that here. Just put an offer of...

A beautiful English idiom says: Beggars are not choosers. If you can't design and manufacture turbofan engine, 40nm FPGA, aerofoils, hydraulics, etc etc. then you have only one choice. To accept what is out there. Learn to live with it.
