    Turkish Peace Operations in Syria (Operation Olive Branch) Updates & Discussions

    Damn, America threw the Kurds under the bus, again. This betrayal is pretty hardcore.

    Indian Ex PM Manmohan Singh accepted Pakistan Invitation on Kartarpur Corridor Opening Ceremony

    LMAO he threw the gauntlet to BJP. Dindus are extremely dull. But will they attack Sikhs' faith? This is gonna be exciting.

    EU human rights report makes no mention of Kashmir, slams China and Russia

    I don't think they can. They will lose their brand new pipeline investment. China should have done more. At least give some aid to BD for the refugee burden.

    TIB: India, China forcing Bangladesh to set up coal-fired plants

    Er...I am not that pessimistic about BD. Unlike Pakistan at least they seem to be on the right track. In fact I would say it's better to employ lots of poor labors for a pittance in the RMG/Shoe/Toy sector in a country like BD than a smaller number of skilled workers in a sector like...

    TIB: India, China forcing Bangladesh to set up coal-fired plants

    So Bangladesh imports 6% of its electricity from India. Interesting. Australian, Indonesian, Martian...doesn't matter. I am sure environment conscious groups will torpedo all plan.

    First lot of Hilsha being sent to India via Benapole port

    It's not a gift. India will be paying for it. And Hilsa is a delicacy. It's exported for a fat sum. Refugees will get daal-chawal.

    TIB: India, China forcing Bangladesh to set up coal-fired plants

    Share of coal in the electricity generation - China - 65%, India - 75%, Bangladesh - ? Electricity consumption per capita per year - China - 4,475 kWh, India - 1,122 kWh, Bangladesh - 351 kWh Bangladeshis protesting against coal power to save the environment is the cutest thing ever. Not just...

    Economics and Geo-economics Part I: A Cruical Distinction

    I think the 'Coming collapse of China' meme already collapsed around 2015. Your effort, while commendable, is a bit late. In popular psyche the meme is still alive and kicking. But that's only because 'popular economics' trails real economics by a few years. These days negative forecast about...

    China's Xi declares new $63-bln Beijing airport is formally open

    Yeah I didn't understand what was the point of his query either. Hardly anyone would land in Daxin and then travel to the Capital airport for a connecting flight. One in a million may be.

    China's Xi declares new $63-bln Beijing airport is formally open

    About 1 hour. Daxin airport express line -> Line 10 -> Airport express line. If you are really interested in knowing the physical distance, it's 65 km as the crow flies.

    1.9m people left off Assam NRC list, risking statelessness: 3.1 crore people included

    The figure quoted for Assam was typically 5 million. And yes, pretty much everybody believed and still believes these cloud cuckoo numbers (both Assam and the all India figure). Why do you think they are demanding 're-verification'? You and I are exceptions. The 5 million number is patent...

    Fix NRC or Assam will be Islamic state: ABVP

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mausala_Parva Congress is non-existent in Assam. No Hindu party in Assam today can take the risk of joining hands with Muslims. AIUDF exists for a reason. If an Assamese mainstream party were willing to accept Muslims, AIUDF wouldn't exist at the first place. In...

    NRC final list released: 17 resolutions later, tally steals BJP’s migrant bogey thunder

    Tell him to go to SC and prove it there. Not in front of TV cameras. I am talking about SC. Tell him to go to court and see how fast he gets kicked out of there.

    NRC final list released: 17 resolutions later, tally steals BJP’s migrant bogey thunder

    Just because you say so, it doesn't become 'faulty' :rofl: SC has already thrown out this demand as the coordinator Hajela pointed out they have already re-verified 27% (:cheesy:) of the applicants. They didn't find any significant discrepancy. If Himanta Sharma tries again, he will be kicked...

    NRC final list released: 17 resolutions later, tally steals BJP’s migrant bogey thunder

    You know what they say about people who try the same thing again and again and expect different results? We spent $2 billion on this fruitless wild goose chase to cater to your - Assamese Hindus' - demand. That money could have built a brand new metro line in Guwahati. Or upgraded the...

    We have lost hope in NRC's present form: Assam Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma

    Not at all. The amount of popcorn, salt and sanghi tears this has generated makes it worth it.

    NRC final list released: 17 resolutions later, tally steals BJP’s migrant bogey thunder

    Ain't that the truth! This also proves that the Indian state apparatus still remains neutral. Wait. Was this exercise done under a Congress govt? Oh right. BJP at center. BJP at province. SC chief judge an Assamese Hindu himself. Still they could only find a few hundred thousand people :rofl...

    Malaysia considering to expell Dr Zakir Naik

    Zakir Naik hasn't managed to convert a single Hindu. What he did do was to radicalize a lot of them. GoI sensed trouble (as the Malaysians are finding out now) and tried to go after him. Secondly the reason he is in the current soup is not because of his preaching. Malaysia is a Muslim majority...
