Most of Turks are extremely enlightened and have a very acute sense of the world around themselves. They have more in common with Iranian people than with with Salafis. Both love science and technology and both love a sense of culture and history unique to them. Both Iran and Turkey can benefit...
Oil is not going to get much cheaper as we are running out of it. But I do not think Iranians should be alarmed about Saudi efforts. First Saudis are already pumping at maximum capacity and can not do much. The oil market today is driven by the demand and not by supply. So it is the demand that...

Can Turkey balance Iran?

If the Arabs expect Turkey to balance Iran, it is unlikely to happen under current Turkish leadership.
Prime Minister Erdogan must carefully balance Turkey's foreign policy in order to...
Agreed, but the situation is really not good in Pakistan. There is a big shortage of electricity and the price of electricity is now over Rs. 18 per unit and if you consume more than 1000 units per month then you have even to pay twice that. How much does it cost in UK?
Something is better than nothing. Frankly I do not know why they did not accept the 10,000 MW offer as it would have solved the problem altogether. At 8 cents a unit, it is cheap and very much affordable as it comes to something like PK Rs. 7.25 per unit.

I do not think it is bogus. Maybe an early stage prototype to develop a satellite bus system. The tanks most probably are for satellite micro engine fuel. The top protrusions are most probably those engines which are used to maneuver the satellite in orbit and also to keep it in a fixed orbit...
Two questions:
In the first picture, are those missiles cold launched from a sealed container? Are those yellow boxes sealed containers?
In the last picture, is that an optical tracker on the nose of the Sejjil?
Leave him. The world is a weird place with all kinds of weird people and weird stories in it. Just like the Tamam Shud Case.
But overall, you can never trust any server that is in west at all. This is the proof of it. Proxies are being used to spy.
I do not think there is any open source...
I also think the problem is deeper than that being admitted. Only countries which had socialistic elements in them like Scandinavian nations have survived it. Others who relied only on capitalism are having problems. It is better to have a hybrid system. China is an example of communism and...
After the recent sophisticated cyber weapon virus hitting Iran hard, another malware has been detected in Iran. This time the ordinary people are the target with Saudi Arabia being where the attack coming from. The anti-filter and proxy programs Iranians use to access forbidden web pages have...
That is too optimistic. But when the killing starts it becomes very difficult to stop it. I have read Russian and Chinese revolution histories. It is really hard to predict. And then for a revolution you must have a new ideology. What do you suggest? Socialism? Islamism? Communism? Constructing...
I know. The other was in response to muse on Islamic values (I have lots of respect for him though, just to be clear). As for it, as I said, a socialist system would be better. Of course with welfare and all the stuff. But for that a strong political leader should be there to lead the nation to...
That is why strong public demand is needed. The same public demand caused the last constitutional amendment if you remember. The lawyer movement and all. And if IK wins then he has the chance to go through with this. It is not impossible. J
I know. I know. But still even with illiteracy, I think a presidential system would be much better and can bring change with least amount of blood spilled. The other alternative would be a real revolution which always costs lives. See the Russian revolution, Chinese and Iranian. Literally river...
