Very funny 馃ぃ. They should start with U.S past presidents that are still alive U.S under George Bush invaded Iraq without UN imprimatur and killed over 600 thousand Iraqi civilians. The war crimes America committed in Afghanistan must be looked into. Tony Blair of UK who joined America to invade Iraq must be arrested and Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel. 10 Likes 1 Share |

Foreign Affairs / Re: Russia Gives Iran 140 Million, Nato Weapons In Exchange For Drones by dermmy(m): 7:48am On Nov 09, 2022 |
maasoap: Ignorance on rampage. So anytime you hear about Iranian drone what comes to mind is the Shahed 171 Simorgh that Iran reversed engineered from the U.S RQ-170 Sentinel lols. Well, Iran had been building drones even before the RQ-170 sentinel 2011 incident. Iran started building drones 40yrs ago during the Iran-Iraq war and Iran has since gained experience in drone building. Iran was the first country to build and make use of Kamikaze/suicide drones in war. Iran today has different array of drones in its inventory that bears no semblance to U.S drones. Jamming and spoofing U.S drone in 2011 was a great feat for them. It demonstrated to the world the electronic warfare capability of the Islamic republic and by reversing the drone to make a copy of it is another great feat and I believe every country would want to lay hold of technology of its enemy to study it and that was what Iran did and it will do it again when the opportunity shows up. Iran is a drone power. 5 Likes 2 Shares |
Foreign Affairs / Re: US Air Force Will Unveil Its Advanced New B-21 Raider Stealth Bomber On Dec. 2. by dermmy(m): 8:54pm On Nov 04, 2022 |
Simeonjoe1: The way you guys believe no country can match any technology U.S deploys makes me laugh at times. The Tupolev Pak Da strategic bomber is being built with U.S latest stealth technology in mind so Russia won't build anything lesser and even Russia is building another which is a 6th gen fighter The Mikoyan Pak Dp/Mig-41with advanced stealth features and it will operate in near space much of the programme feature is still highly classified you can search for Mig-41 online it's on wikipedia too. I even read some where that the Mig-41 could have advanced features that U.S stealth planes don't have and could intercept hypersonic missiles.. The only delay I think they can have now is the due to the barrage of sanctions that has been placed on Russia but Tupolev and Mikoyan aircraft corporataion have said sanctions won't affect the development and timing of their programme cause they are sourcing all the materials locally even Pak Da will start air trials next year for the first prototype. The true test of any weapon is the brutal school of combat. We can brag about U.S/Russia/China stealth technology but their true test is on the battlefield that is where the boss can be known but to just conclude that Russia and China are decades behind U.S in stealth technology is what I won't accept. The fact that U.S started building stealth planes before Russia/China does not mean Russia/China can't disrupt U.S stealth tech with their own tech. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Foreign Affairs / Re: UN General Assembly Rebukes US Embargo On Cuba by dermmy(m): 8:41am On Nov 04, 2022 |
grandstar: This is not true. Cuba being a communist country has no connection to what they are experiencing but uncle sam would want you to believe communism is the main reason for their woes because of America's own disdain for communism. The fear that communism could spread throughout western hemispehere was what made America to constrict Cuba during the cold war not only Cuba every communist country was sanctioned and pressured by America. America see western hemisphere as its own sphere of influence and a communist country springing up there got them alarmed We know the number of failed assasination attempts the CIA orchestrated against Fidel Castro not only that terrorists were sent by CIA to detonate explosives around the country every attempt made by Castro to develop the economy was hamstrung by U.S. In the year 2016 President Barrack Obama realised the wrong America did to Cuba and he tried to extend an olive branch by visiting the country but Fidel Castro declined to meet Obama because America really hurt that man it was God that didn't hand over his life to the America's CIA if you fail to assasinate a man after 600 attempts it can only be God. His brother Raul Castro was the one who met Obama and Obama said this during that visit to Latin America. He met Raul in 2015 and 2016 "Days of meddling in Latin America are past"- Barrack Obama https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-32261550.amp https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-cuba-idUSKCN0WM04H Obama promised to relax decades old sanctions against the country which he did but when Donald Trump got there he reversed those decisions made by Obama and put those sanctions in place. The excuse they usually give is Cuba has human rights issues. Is it Saudi Arabia their ally that does not have human right issues. How many sanctions and embargo have been placed on Saudi Arabia. 9 Likes 1 Share |

God1000: To be honest Gorbachev does not deserve a state burial. He allowed the USSR to collapse willingly which was a win for their enemy the Western bloc led by the U.S. He thought he was championing world peace not knowing that the west is never to be trusted. Look at how the west has treated Russia with contempt since the collapse of USSR. They stopped giving Russia the respect it deserves after the collapse thank God Russia still has nuclear weapons if not that country would have been invaded and disintegrated by now cause that's the plan America and its NATO thugs have for Russia. Even Gorbachev later regretted his actions if you have watched some of the interviews he granted since the beginning of this millenium most of them have been about regrets of his Perestroika and Glasnosts policies and allowing the USSR to collapse. The nobel peace prize he got in return does not worth what Russia is experiencing at the hand of the west today. Gorbachev only served the interest of America and its western allies by allowing the USSR to collapse and Russia has paid serverly for his foolishness. 13 Likes 2 Shares |

nurudeen181: Iranian drones are very good, combat ready and tested. Their drones have experienced combats in Iraq, Syria and Yemen and they've proved their reliability and combat effectiveness. The Houthis in Yemen have used them to devastating effect. The Houthis flew them stealthily into Saudi Arabia in 2019 to blow up Aramco facilities under the watch of U.S patriot defence systems and have carried out more stealthy kamikaze drone strike since then They have stealth drones that have flown over U.S aircraft carriers transiting the gulf taking the pictures of their flight deck in order to demonstrate how vulnerable U.S carriers are to their drones but western biased news outlets won't list them as one of the best producers of drones in the world. And FYI Iran is the first country in the world to produce and use suicide/kamikaze drone also known as loitering munition. Iran is a drone power and has been in the drone business for decades and it continues to improve on its drone technology. 6 Likes |

mysticwarrior: @the bolded. That is the injustice of war. All the major powers that participated in WW2 committed war crimes excluding China that was defending its territory from invaders. But the conquered were the ones charged for war crimes meanwhile the victors also committed war crimes too. The American General Curtis Lemay said one thing after the war. If I had lost the war, I would have been tried as a war criminal -General Curtis Lemay He was very right. He was the one who supervised the fire bombing of Japanese cities with incendiary bombs that led to many civilian deaths. It was a deliberate attempt to force Japan to surrender. It was a war crime. The western allied powers committed atrocities on a large scale. The Fire bombing of Dresden and Operation Gomorrah also known as The Bombing of Hamburg. These were deliberate targeting of civilian populations with incendiary bombs that incinerated a whole city, villages, towns as a means of forcing Germany to surrender with the accompanied rape that followed. If Nazi Germany had won WW2 USSR, U.S, Britain, France, and other allied countries would have been tried for war crimes by Germany too. Only the victors dictate rules after war. 10 Likes 3 Shares |

But Russia does not care about what happens to the economy in the pursuit of Russia's strategic interest. If China must maintain its growth level and the ties it has made with other countries it has to steer clear of debilitating wars. President Xi is wise and smart. 2 Likes |

If China does not carry out these manouvers it would be seen as a weakling or a paper tiger. They have to send a message to America that they have what it takes to strike Taiwan if provoked. China can't just sit down and watch after it had made threats about the Pelosi visit. If you are not ready to strike at least let the adversary (U.S) know what you can do if it happens next time.

Ishitinyourlife: No China won't start a war. With that Xi's address to the Communist party. I believe China has weighed its options about invading Taiwan. A war with Taiwan would be costly. Taiwan is not just a walk over it has been preparing for such scenario for decades. I believe China will definitely prevail in such a war but at what cost? Hence the reason President Xi addressed the communist party to win hearts in Taiwan.

Ishitinyourlife: Is it only the West that sanctioned Russia? Don't tell me Russia is not feeling the effect of the sanctions. You can't tell me Russia's economy is what it used to be before the war unless we want to deceive ourselves. This is not a slavery mentality. This is fact. As things stand China has plans to cement its relationship with many countries invading Taiwan will do a great damage to that. China knows U.S. won't risk a confrontation with her but there are other consequences. As things stand China has the capability to take Taiwan but they are being restrained. Yesterday president Xi still urged the Communist part to win the hearts of the Taiwanese people so that should tell you China does not want to invade Taiwan they are being restrained.

Ishitinyourlife: The resolute action of the world against Russia on Ukraine war is a deterrent to China. Not this time when China is looking for allies building trust and confidence around the world and cementing its economic ties with various countires that even U.S. is jealous of. Though China is an economic power house and a great player on the world stage it will take a lot of effort to isolate China but still the economy will still have some cracks and setbacks should sanctions start rolling in as a result of its invasion of Taiwan. President Xi is different from Vladimir Putin. Xi prioritises economic growth over any other thing but Putin does not give a damn about what happens to the economy in the pursuit of Russia's strategic interest. 2 Likes |

mysticwarrior: What would China have done? Bring down Pelosi's plane? Start a war with Taiwan while Pelosi is still there? I knew U.S. govt would encourage Pelosi to go ahead with the visit because U.S. does not like to appear weak in the eyes of the world. U.S wouldn't want the world to think it caved in to China's threat. But trust me this Pelosi visit has laid a foundation for future confrontations between China and Taiwan. Because China has started sensing that the island would declare independence with the help of U.S. in the near future and China has to take some drastic measures before that happens. Like you said North Korea is a rogue nation that does not care. If it were to be NK Kim Jong Un could order the sinking of a Taiwanese ship the way they sank a South Korean military ship in 2010 with their midget submarine killing all South Korean personnel on board. We can't just call China a weakling or toothless bulldog. Let's see what happens in the coming days after Pelosi has departed. I know China wants to avoid war and the only possible way to start the unification of Taiwan is to infiltrate the govt and politics of Taiwan which is proving difficult. China cares a lot about its economy which will be affected by war with Taiwan coupled with a unified world sanctions against her. But we all know U.S. won't go head to head with China over Taiwan. 4 Likes |

jimetagambo: No Jimeta. This is between China and Taiwan U.S won't even try to sacrifice any of its troops for Taiwan sake. They can only help Taiwan with military aid, logistics and intelligence. China won't lose anything in a war with Taiwan cause it is a war they will fight with everything they have just to re-unite that island with the mainland but the question you should be asking is. Is America willing to sacrifice hundreds of thousands of its troops over an island that has no historical connection to America? Will American troops be motivated to fight such a war? I bet Chinese troops will be more motivated to take Taiwan and engage any adversary standing in their way cause they see Taiwan as part of the mainland that U.S subtly allowed to slip away. When the Chinese start losing troops in their thousands they would see it as a price they have to pay to bring back their erring province but when America start losing its own thousands troops over an island America has no claim over how do you think Americans at home would feel? It will be an unpopular war back home in America and trust me America won't even try that. Is America willing to confront a peer-nuclear power like China over that small Island? This is not the China of 1960's. Do you know what is holding China back from taking Taiwan now? It's the avalanche of sanctions that would pour in after such invasion what is happening to Russia currently serves as a deterrent to any other power that wants to undertake such a mission like Ukraine. Russia is getting isolated by the day. But trust me China is confident no power would stand in its way if it decides to take Taiwan today. 9 Likes |

It doesn't matter what the west calls Sankara and their salves in Africa like the guy sapientia. Sankara remains one of the greatest leaders in African history the revolutionary reforms he made during his tenure will never be forgotten. I still remember the unrest that led to the ousting of this perfidious Blaise Compaore in 2014. I watched as Burkinabes were shouting justice for Sankara. After Compaore was ousted and fled to exile Sankara's wife that compaore sent into exile after he killed her husband came to that country with a rousing welcome that should tell you Sankara has a good legacy and he will foreever be rememberd by generations yet unborn. But slaves like sapientia would rather lick his white masters boots by calling sankara a dictator because Sankara didn't allow them to suck and milk the country during his short tenure. The opinion of the west and the slaves sapientia and alphanomega don't matter because Burkinabes don't see him that way that's all that matters. The fact that they still pursued justice after many years of his death shows that Sankara was a man of the people. Rest on Thomas Isidore Sankara. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Foreign Affairs / Re: Why Do Americans Hate Communism? by dermmy(m): 3:12pm On Mar 31, 2022 |
siofra: Communism is a threat to America's economy and sphere of influence. America spent billions of dollars during the cold war years fighting communism around the world. Sponsoring regime change and insurgency in communist countries through the CIA. America entered the Korean war because of its fear of Communism and was heavily involved in the Vietnam war because of this same fear it has for communism. I don't know if you have come across what they call the Domino Theory. A theory America was using in its justification for intervention in communist countries during the cold war years. America even formed the South East Asian Treaty Organisation (SEATO) a multilateral NATO like security agreement in Asia just to counter the spread of Communism. And American public generally have been brainwashed by their government to think communism is evil since the war on communism is a policy in their country. Also Capitalism thrives on exploitation through imperialism and Imperialism is the highest stage of capitalism, the highest stage in capitalist development which Communism repudiates. So both economic models or modes of production are antagonistic to each other. 6 Likes 1 Share |
