Its a bold offer and I doubt Biden admin will be able to match it or if they are even willing to try. France made similar bold offer for Mirage 2000 production line, but Indian govt was not prescient or fiscally stable enough back then. Not the case now, it will be interesting time period that...

@#comcom Credt to original owner.

An interesting strategic partnership to watch more this decade @Vergennes

The 1st issue (religion being an asserted basis of nationhood, especially asserting it further historically) inserts a collectivist statist notion from the onset and thus is heavily flawed. It is especially compromised because the majority of the religion's members reside outside the borders of...

You can read the declaration of independence for starters. Then the articles and original bill of rights. Then the works of Locke and Burke at the very least to understand why the framing was done as such (here and nowhere else till lot later). The first principle approach is that we exist...

Well you got to go by "if shoe was on the other foot"...you got to look at this stuff as neutral as can be. Stage charades and platitudes is one thing. If he walked away because he didnt want to make some scene, there was certainly no follow-up...when there should have been. So it ended up...

Yah obviously a total charade in the end. Entire party is compromised on this issue.

@Saiyan0321 when you are back I think it might be best to move replies from #55 onwards to some new history debate thread about IVC etc.. if you feel it proper of course as I feel this might go off topic from what you intended in this one. It might also be useful to put "Pakistan" in (this)...

That's very sad if this bears out as it looks like now.

The whole paper is mostly talking about the IVC itself having limited iranian-neolithic connection (having diverged from the earlier human migrations into the subcontinent at large). That is not what I was talking about. I am talking about the steppe migration (never did I say this was an...

I just mean it from a who's in power vs opposition. I see nothing promising anywhere I look. I can launch into the big differences between the US and Europe on it (what left and right mean), but thats not the point. I have lost faith in the political class at large globally....as I can see...

I would first read a specific reply for context on my position overall before you read rest of my post here: https://defencehub.live/threads/hindu-temple-destroyed-set-on-fire-by-mob-in-pakistans-khyber-pakhtunkhwa-province.4117/page-6#post-42828 It would take too long for me to respond to...

It need not be conflated (what the british did with what they understood/misunderstood at the time) with what we have since uncovered scientifically (regarding the clear later migration from the steppe). Have a read...

To be frank, Modi and Trump are equally stupid in their own specific ways....just like the broader coterie of politicians in both countries (I can get into which are the standouts that buck the trend in US especially, on both sides of the aisle, but thats really long somewhat irrelevant...

Joe you are bit late to bullfight in the tea-room again. Out of one room, they'd move to another...so kind of hard looking back to see who and where it started and grew. There was about a week or two of this kind of stuff going back and forth (across multiple threads) combining with me being...

Precisely why past certain size, things go to diesel-"electric" in locomotives heh.

Came across this heartening moment of our army: The CO of the Unit is a Bengali Officer who is sporting a Pagri and beard and carrying the Gurugranth Sahib on his head.
