"The U S military had every chance of containing the al qaeda and taliban in afghanmistan---they intentionally let them escape because they wanted the war to continue for awhile." This irrational comment makes intelligent response impossible.

Guys, there is a lack of willingness worldwide thus far to "toughly" enforce UN Treaty and International Law standards, together with existing government of Ukraine right to govern without invasion with Spetznatz troops who in turn recruit and lead some locals in using street violence to seek...

I used to manage (administrator and grants originator for numerous MDs and PhDs) Medical Research and Development for our area Veterans Medical Center (federal) and the state Medical School co-located here. Thus I was used to co-host the Deputy Dean of the Medical College of China (mainland...

The singular tall snow capped mountain I and we all saw frame thru the picture window in our USAF Base at Badabur is what I and we remember. Thanks for your comments, otherwise. Of course every winter all the rugged mountains everywhere in Pakistan get fresh layers of snow, so the tops or...

11. I omitted the ancient city/site of Thatta as a place I visited during my 1963-65 USAF tour of duty in Pakistan. My discription of Thatta is where we jumped from a tall water fall into the (I think) Indus River below as part of our swimming there during site seeing.

During my tenure in Pakistan I visited that I can recall since returning to the US June of 1965: 1. Peshawar and Badabur, my higher HQ from my posting at the US Embassy then in Karachi. 2. Karachi, where I lived and was posted in support of our USAF base in Peshawar/Badabur. 3. The Khyber...

Thanks for sharing yours and others photos. Two years of Geology as my elective natural science in undergraduate college causes me to note in particularly some pictures showing glacial scarf. I would assume some of that debris has been carbon or other dated and would perhaps be upwards of 400...

June 28, 2009 Here is the exact information on K-2. Note that I "misspelled" Karatorum, which is correctly spelled KARAKORAM. "K2 lies in the northwestern Karakoram Range. It is located in the Baltistan region of Gilgit–Baltistan, Pakistan and the Taxkorgan Tajik Autonomous County of...

Pardner, you are full of it! My higher hq was at Badabur, 18 miles outside of Peshawar. And, yes, you can see K2 all year around, sometimes in season with swirling snow storms at the top of K-2. We had a large picture window behind the Officers Club Bar at our Badabur base, where you can and...

Here is a list of Saddam Hussein violations of UN Resolutions, to include and start with the big three reasons for the allied invasion of Saddam's Treaty breaking nation, wherein Saddam was in the process of slaughtering the Marsh People in the sout of and inside Iraq and in the North the Kurds...

I have posted a very long analysis of Iron Dome under Iron Dome From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Iron Dome Type C-RAM and short range Air defence system[1] Place of origin Israel Service history In service 2011–present Used by Israel Singapore[2]...

Not expensive if provided as part of military aide from West. You represent one of the two new major growth economies on the face of the earth. But your military may still have or get military aide from a Western nation or nations? Also, I will look up some well documented cost analysis on...

In fact the iron dome system is relatively cheap. It is not that sophisticated, as others here have just stated. It takes all of the different approaches you advocate AND the iron dome system. ASIDE: No one currently mentions but during the 2000's War on Terrorism and I suspect up to now...

The talk with Israel and buy some low tech missiles from them. Pakistan engineers can then replicate these style of missiles to use in future at all Pakistani airports to stop or try to stop terrorist missile attacks. Good luck in this endeavor and I hope Pakistan in fact does this, and/or...

Well done!

The lunatics of al Qaida are in fact all about Islam, as they have bastardized a faith system whose credo until al Qaida came along (as well as the Taliban) was "peace." PS - Here is the topic of this thread, which you have ignored. You are very much off subject in fact, with no facts to boot...

Since you are self documenting using your opinions about your opinions why even comment here since you deal in only your self opinions vs. facts. You never heard of the President Jimmy Carter won treaty between Israel, Egypt, and Jordan, as but one factual example of peaceful progress. Back...

First, clean up your language. Second, you failed to read the detailed facts of the three major categories of UN Resolutions violations which Saddam Hussein violated over and over after the Truce he then repeatedly broke following Saddam's invasion of Kuwait and Northern Saudi Arabia. I know...

I used the Peshawar Airport many times during my tour of duty inside then West Pakistan 1963-65. It is a beautiful site, set in the foothills of the Himalayan Mountains, with a scenic perpetual view of K-2, the second tallest mountain in the world. I was a lay member of the old Karotorum...

There are many good young Russians inside Russia today starting to be crushed...you apparently don't or refused to read recent articles I have posted here from the just taken over by Mr. Putin's editor (formerly of the RIA)...which flatly note the unhappy events of outlawing and shutting down in...
