    Yup....but this is just one thing of a large litany of issues for India that will come up this year (and likely long term) by the RUS-UKR war that has commenced. Consider the weak hmmmm-hawww foreign statements from India on this whole thing, which shows its relationship with Russia that it...

    Is Taiwan Next?

    Such a thing would be done extremely discreetly, probably in concert with the Japanese approach/appetite for it. (ROC and JPN are becoming significantly closer behind the scenes). In the interim, Taiwan likely will develop a fairly potent ballistic + cruise missile + stand off capability given...

    honestly who cares man..... This world changes only when plebs stop their obsession with patricians (which is what the latter want). Plebs must put differences behind and unite against those that wield power, instead of fall for their cheap tricks. You cannot revel in what I give (w.r.t...

    It will be detected.....maybe an extremely deep sea test can be done secretly given the dampening on offer (I am not sure)....but there would be fallout that can be detected and raise a real maelstrom in that case too. Underground is extremely detectable by seismographs. If its another round...
