Armenia turning to Turkey wouldn’t be a natural progression, but a move made under pressure it seems. The protests in Gyumri show how deep the frustration with Russia has become, especially after Moscow failed to provide military support when Armenia was blitzed, despite CSTO commitments. But...

I did not know there was a music thread. That's cool.

Hellish nightmare.

You got it backwards, I'm Canadian living in South Korea at-present. It says country of origin vs country of residence Easy to follow. I’m not ‘living in the past,’ I’m pointing out that politics doesn’t work like a motivational poster. Comparing 1915 as well as Karabakh to post-WWII Germany is...

Leverage is one thing, but acting like Turkey’s some unstoppable force ignores reality. It's not. The MPT-76 sucks, and Russia’s beaten down but still a player, and the U.S. isn’t exactly handing over the keys anytime soon. Saying Turkey “has no capacity” against America sounds like bravado...

US involvement definitely risks inflaming tensions, especially if they start backing Armenia militarily and politically. But trusting Russia to keep the peace? That’s like handing your house keys to the guy who’s been stealing from you. Russia’s own interests rarely align with regional...

Europe’s still in warm-up mode while the U.S. can churn out weapons like it’s 1943 with even better logistics. Ukraine would be stupid not to tap American stockpiles if they want to survive long enough for Europe to catch up. Credit where it’s due: Biden actually got the assembly lines moving...

This is just my opinion: I don't believe Armenia will just forget 1915 because Turkey’s got a “big market.” That’s like telling someone to move in with the guy who burned their house down because he’s got Netflix Premium. And Azerbaijan? Pretty sure Armenians haven’t exactly been sending them...

Interesting take. Basically starving the bear until it eats itself. But here's the catch: cornered animals tend to lash out, not collapse gracefully. Betting on economic collapse to trigger regime change in a nuclear-armed state with a history of enduring brutal conditions (Tsarist famines...

Exactly. It’s like two drunk guys with grenades duct-taped to their chests arguing over who farted first. Sure, they might throw a few punches, maybe break a chair or two, but if either one actually pulls the pin, we’re all just glowing dust arguing in radioactive group chats. And yeah, blaming...

I think you're spot on. The U.S. presence in Syria has functioned less as a counterterrorism mission and more as a geopolitical anchor, one that indirectly sustains Israeli strategic depth in the region. As that presence erodes, Israel’s reactive posture increasingly looks like a scramble to...

Well, the deal brings in critical investment and cements strategic ties with the U.S., but the extent of legal and economic concessions raises valid concerns. Prioritizing one foreign partner so heavily, especially in such a long-term, open-ended framework, could limit Ukraine’s flexibility and...

How has the DPRK Ground Forces performance been since they entered the war?

Ah yes, the ol’ "secret alliance is just journalist fantasy" angle. Classic. Look, nobody’s saying there’s some signed blood pact between the US, Israel, and Azerbaijan with matching tattoos and secret handshakes. But pretending there’s nothing going on? That’s a bit rich, yeah? Let’s call a...

You’re so blindly biased that it’s clear you’re only seeing what fits your narrow perspective and ignoring everything else.

The situation in Syria is complicated, with a lot of moving parts involving multiple countries, including Israel, Iran, and even Russia. It could be more about regional tensions than anything else. We’re getting a lot of alarmist rhetoric with little concrete information. It may be more about...

The US-Israel-Azerbaijan "alliance" isn't really an official alliance per se, but they have been building a pretty strong working relationship in recent years, especially in terms of defense, energy, and regional security. Azerbaijan and Israel have been growing their military ties, with...
