The CIA replaced a pro-US regime with an anti-US regime in one of the most powerful countries in the middle east? :coffee:

Aren't there many people in Pakistan who after decent education/training get good jobs? Is coming to Europe really worth risking your life for, or all your savings?

Good! Cheap oil.

Old Turkish script is in Arabic.

I believe that on some days, the Russians have been firing 60,000 shells per day. This will put figures into context. On a different thread, this makes the stocks of ammunition in Transnistria (Moldova) much more attractive to the Ukrainians. A Ukrainian push in that direction? Start a false...

The mother of all crashes is on the horizon. The dollar is declining as the World currency. Can anyone see the Chinese buying US treasury bonds? They've been dumping them at the rate of $100 billion per month. There are no more buyers. Batten down the hatches and expect the worse.

I mentioned that earlier. Stocks of ex-soviet equipment in Europe have been drained to zero, there are literally no more to send. Ditto for all ammunition stocks. New production will take time, and probably will never be enough to meet demand. No matter which policy Nato adopts, Ukraine will...

:omghaha: Then why make them? I believe that they have sent them, but I guess they don't want to run their stocks down to nothing.

This is the moron who wants the UK to go to war with Russia. No great loss. On another note, just sad to see the low standard of leadership in the West generally.

The Vilnius summit was the end for Ukraine. No Nato membership, Nato supplies dwindling because the equipment is simply not there. Failed counter-offensive. Russia is becoming stronger, Ukraine weaker. I think that there is only one outcome in sight.

Every state has different geography and a different culture/mindset among its inhabitants. Great place to visit. There used to be a car delivery service I used years ago; you drive a car to deliver it to someone's house, and it can be anywhere. You pay nothing, and they give you a few days to...

I didn't know that the most widely produced tracked vehicle in the German army was the humble 76mm self-propelled anti-tank gun.

Think positive. We all know that Pakistan can always sink further........

The old 'self-propelled anti-tank gun'. A 125mm is for nothing other than modern main battle tanks.

China's progress is the flip side of the end of Western/US hegemony. The West can not accept that they can no longerdictate to the rest of the world. They think that by crushing China they can preserve their superiority.

I talked to some relatives who had been to china, and had lived in Hong Kong. I was absolutely shocked when they said that the quality of life was better in China than the UK.

Only about two or three years ago.

I think that she is coming to ask China not to dump US bonds. It seems that many parts of the US government are not talking to each other. One minute a call to war with China, then a call to 'calm things down', and now a begging visit for help. I like the total lack of ceremony for her, like...

I remember someone commenting on here that radar production is very complex, and that Pakistan is many years away from that.

As regards modern words, how did the English develop them? When 'aircraft' or 'internet' came up, did they say, 'hold on, we have this word lying around for a thousand years, now we can finally use it?' :laugh: You use the existing vocabulary and amend it for a new application.
