Look mate, these events get blown out of portion way too often. Two of them were platoon strength patrols who bumped into each because of the ill-defined LAC. the last one was a stand off with both sides mobilizing then demobilizing, when things were settled politically. I think the reason...

yeah Chinese expenditure for the military was ridiculously small up until recently. Before 1979, the PLA went by the theory of "people's war", where you mobile millions of men with only rifles and light arms to fight, so the expenditure was very small. and they were encouraged to grow their...

They would only resort to such a blunt instrument as a very last resort. The business class in the 1930's were freaking out over Roosevelt's new deal policies and thought that the government was going to take their money from them, only then did they start organizing a military coup. But the...

War as a market strategy. It was bound to come to this.

Shameless bump for more readership :P It was a really good discussion looking back at it. No trolling at all *shock*

Ahh back in those days Chinese members and Indian members got along a lot better. Not so today. You'll hardly ever see discussion like the one above, nowadays. *believe it or not, Chinese dragon was one of the most pro-India Chinese members here. Many Pakistanis accused him of being a false flag.

Most people reading it doesn't exactly have much background info with which to parse these articles. How many Australians reading it would know if it's BS or not?

I admire your stamina.

If Wallstreet is seriously threatened, they'll hire a Marine corp general, and 500,000 troops and overthrow the US government. Business Plot - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

That is blatantly a device bought for the sole purpose of denying journalistic accountability and transparency with regards to police actions. How do they justify that?

Wow they are actually deploying specialized flash devices to block coverage of their arrests.

Don't think I ever brought race into things, you sir are confusing me to someone else or stereotyping, which is kind of racist of itself.

Good to know that you hold China to a higher standard than your own country.

Poor attempt to troll old man. I actually think criticism and disagreement over the future course of the country at all level (even the elite) is a sign that China is thinking about the problem. The same goes with those protests against chemical plants and lead pollution. DAIGF already.

Oh jeez, I hope someone is not trying to make a case for the Manchus being anything other than illiterate steppe dwellers who killed the only chance China had of reaching modernity on its own.

Best lookin' ship in the PLAN imo
