Not bad but superficially analogous only, Jarnee. There is "physical landlock" and there is "geopolitical" landlock. A country in a physical but not a geopolitical landlock can succeed (Cue Switzerland, Austria, and Uganda - in the context of their respective history, developmental level and...

There is a degree of truth to what you say. However, if you must make a statement about Westerners and Indians (such Indians are mostly only among their pro-Western "elite" and then it's not even all of those), I would ask you to leave Turkey out of this. In any event, I do not see one Turkish...

Kharian, this has nothing to do with "Communism", but you know that already. In fact, during "Communist" heydays, Soviets had ideological as well as practical control over Central Asia - way beyond simple military tutelage. Many, many (if not a majority) of the Soviet troops that descended on...

I partially agree with you. Paul Krugman gets hysterical just about everything and anything these days, although clearly some are more grave than others. Beware of financial capitalism, there is no doubt about that. The so-called "free floating" of currency is like "free sex" - there is no...

Dear Sino-Pak. If you read this, I would implore you to self-delete message #15, which is highly counter-productive. And then consider deleting #16 and #17 which do not help, either. Thanks. And Kharian was right: you do not ask your partner to choose, and the choice would be...

I appreciate it when someone takes the time and I learn something.

All the best in your "Look-East". Sorry I honestly thought "Turanian" is just another word for "Iranian". When Kharian came up with the crayon production, I thought he coughed up a neo-Persian Empire or something ... And at this particular juncture, I thought there was motivation behind it...

Don't think the Chinese are "anti-democratic" - why? You polled a billion and change? In fact, we are waiting for you Greens to show us the way. We are waiting for the "Persian" model - I am not being entirely facetious. Beyond that, I am personally neutral in your struggles. There was a...

What do you say, dccafe, to someone whose entire "Chinese" vocabulary consists of "Diu Nei Lo Mo"? And in his mind he thinks he is defending "La Raza" by handing it out left and right as proof of his "patriotism" ... It's probably karma for "La Raza" as the "Hindoos" would think. And I just...

Show me one link where "Turanian" encompasses the whole of mother Russia, including northern Altaics?

Fair request mate. I can sympathize with a "frustrated Uighur" if it was the case. But I truly suspect something else here. Just a hunch, even if I was out to lunch ;). :pakistan:

"Turanian" implies more "Iranic" than "Turkic" - or Turko-Mongo, at least linguistically. If he just hoisted up a flag with "Pan-turkic" characteristics, no one would care. But he did not.

Probably for once since you descended, I agree with you. The opposition is cunning. False-flag operations are no strangers to these lands.

It has nothing to do with "hurt" feelings. All of Russia in your "Turanian" kindom? Perhaps what you really want to do is to hurt Iran's "butt" ... Well, well, well - what is the motivation, and why the timing? Questions to ponder. And to think that I "thanked" your "thoughtful" post...

I concur. I over-estimated your intelligence, Kharian_beast. Now we know who keeps on (self)-defeating the "Ummah". Or the "Turanian" empire. :disagree:

It has nothing to do with DL - I couldn't care less. My response only concerns albwd, with particular regard to the underlined part of his OP. The "motherland" I referred to is neither yours, nor Amrika.

I implore the mods to let your post stand as is - to serve as a reminder so that in some future date (assuming internet will still be around) others can look back and see exactly why the "motherland" fell ... It will go by the way of all other empires and wannabes - by madness and...
