    Liu Xiaobo – the almost forgotten hero of Tiananmen Square | DW Documentary

    A very well put analysis of the issues at hand. I agree near 100%. But you know me, I sometimes skirmish away from my own position (known to me in the end only), to test and see what another's position is and how he is able to argue and defend it, if he can at all.

    Indonesian Politics (History, Issue, culture etc)

    Long story in itself... Israel labour did lot of goof ups (but who didn't?), huge swathes of Israeli public lost confidence in the old stewardship ( meir et al. at the time) after Yom Kippur war...it served as opening for the old irgun cadre like Begin....and Likud story starts there more or...

    Turkish American relationship

    No it just wont be signed by him, super majority pass by legislature does not need executive to sign off on it for it to become law. It has happened before.

    Indonesian Politics (History, Issue, culture etc)

    Yes India followed this line of thinking (support to Palestinian nationhood) during cold war era as well (and it continues to this day i.e 2 state solution). But it didn't stop India from recognising Israel in 1950 (because I see Nehru in that picture too hehe). What India did do was tailor...

    Indonesian Politics (History, Issue, culture etc)

    There is no reason I see Indonesia and Malaysia continue non-recognition of Israel. The issue is literally on other side of world. Countries need to think in nationalist terms first (what is their best interests for them), not this religion-identity thing across countries. That just open up...

    News Jokowi asks Elon Musk to study Indonesia as venue for SpaceX launch site

    Definitely the other investments (Tesla) etc interest me lot more than the SpaceX thing here. Skipping past the issues already discussed in this thread, SpaceX like any aerospace company is very logistics intensive and reliant. They need a dedicated, assured infra at hand to their launch...

    Liu Xiaobo – the almost forgotten hero of Tiananmen Square | DW Documentary

    I would say GLF (because of the famine). Cultural revolution is another big bag of tragedy. Our friend continues the triggered spam here and all his inane comparisons typically. He wants to try to compared todays world leaders w.r.t covid to something like this: Throughout the Great Leap...

    Well its a very matured capable platform...I would not say its "only" positive thing. Essentially it fits the 4th gen profile at the highest setting much like Rafale...with a massive assortment of not only sensoring, integration, assurance for IN other assets, but massive weapons package and...

    TR Casual Discussion Çay Bahçesi

    Do we have a number? Looking at: https://datatopics.worldbank.org/debt/ids/countryanalytical/TUR Bilateral loans (in total not just China) make up 7.5/440 or around 2% of total foreign debt principal held by Turkey (as of 2019). Rest would need a study of how much Chinese prevalence there is...

    Breakthrough sciences and technologies

    None of this surprises me heh....having worked with harmonics and resonances a lot. The last lecture when he brings up stellar collapse at the end as special poignant point to angular momentum conservation was very well done. There is of course another branch of physics also playing out here...

    Yes, Mig 29 was never made in first place with carrier operation in mind. Rather a quick modernized replacement for USSR to develop as saturated airforce platform into the 90s and 2000s (USSR collapsed so lot of Mig 29 promise is effectively unlocked, Russia just doesnt have the same...

    Azerbaijan Armenia Relations News

    Given what embargoes (of much more severe level) have done to Iran by same countries, this MP should really not be this foolish as it undercuts Iran's larger argument ...by cutting nose to spite the face. I mean if they do something to Turkey, whats to stop them then doing even more to Iran...

    Liu Xiaobo – the almost forgotten hero of Tiananmen Square | DW Documentary

    I am merely pointing out that spamming is against forum rules...which you are verging on the line of a number of times, so watch yourself. If you have stated something, there is no need to nonsensically blare it 10 more times. If it is off topic subject (as this one is), you are welcome to start...

    Liu Xiaobo – the almost forgotten hero of Tiananmen Square | DW Documentary

    Just one of many researchers within China: Yang Jisheng, senior journalist from Xinhua News Agency, concluded there were 36 million deaths due to starvation, while another 40 million others failed to be born, so that "China's total population loss during the Great Famine then comes to 76...

    Liu Xiaobo – the almost forgotten hero of Tiananmen Square | DW Documentary

    Simply posting things again and again will only get mod action. Please make a new point instead of this typical reaction when triggered. Thanks. You have to try to make your argument better rather than CCP sloganeering. The latter only puts off the audience...we have long heard this 1000 times...

    Liu Xiaobo – the almost forgotten hero of Tiananmen Square | DW Documentary

    OK good distortion (or poor education) of history. Just like the altered images and story filters for tianenmen itself, where Mao portrait hangs smiling at his victim's descendants. Yes India once independent and in control of her affairs, never produced a famine that led to millions of deaths...
