    I changed my mind again (heh, this way more members will discuss it I think, compared to a coffee thread)..... I think the germany, turkey, ww1, ww2 stuff can be amply fleshed out in this better thread for it as members would like to.

    Live Conflict Ukraine-Russia War

    Quislings generally will leave with Russians IMO. This war now might go through several stalemate and cold war kind of situation....as Russia got real bloody nose so far and might take time off to lick wounds.....and muster something for later if they see weakness/opening to try exploit. The...

    Live Conflict Ukraine-Russia War

    It is interesting idea, but there is no way to do that short of disbanding the whole UN and starting a new one etc (something I have said should be done long time ago).....as current UNSC members can just veto anything they dont like (including their removal + replacement lol). BTW India...

    India Economy + Infra Archive

    The Indian economy is largely a service-based one. And the past few years has only seen that trend intensify. With one big exception: Pharmaceuticals. The comments section is also good to browse and have a read.

    India India - Sri Lanka Relations

    @merzifonlu @HTurk these were cpl posts that may interest you to read on subject of LTTE from my perspective. The last couple pages (of that thread - Kashmir files - you can use the quote arrows to get there) provide the context w.r.t some of the Kashmir story as well as to why I brought it up...

    India Coffee House

    @xenon5434 , this was the earlier post I made regarding the subject you brought up on chips w.r.t China etc, the "depreciation of certain production machines" is exactly what I meant back then w.r.t say the (DUV) lithograph refurbishing that ASML does for China currently...and the contingencies...

    India Coffee House

I would be an Atlantis explorer/re-visiter myself from time to time, but they impounded my submarine and I have better things to do given I can just observe from time to time rather than participate anyway. The point is we are trying an...

    India India - Sri Lanka Relations

    LTTE is finished force. It of course has its proponents spread around, those things dont go away so easily. The long term impact has been it has both distanced and brought SL closer to India in various ways (given the long story of India's involvement in the inter-ethnic disputes of Sri Lanka...
