@CzechDetectingChap absolutely, especially as the coming century will be dominated by those with economic "soft power" and not direct military strength. In this scenario its not unlikely that the BRIC nations will play a comparable if not larger role in shaping the world.

@MattyOfTheVale As for the sophisticated weapons which you list, they are merely symptoms of a larger problem. Before they existed humans were butchering each other as efficiently with swords and spears. The problem lies in human nature and yes it has been exacerbated terribly by religion , whic...

LMAO science may have done some trifling things like eliminate polio and malaria but when has it ever tended to someone with a slight sense of unease or simply more money than sense like good ol Chopra has

"Iraq attacked them and they attacked back" . Wow that statement takes the definition of stupidity to new levels . When a country attacks you and you retaliate its called defending oneself not attacking. Its the country which initiates hostilities which is the attacker

@oscarmarin1995 Well that logic presupposes the existence of a divine being, something for which there is a great paucity of evidence. It seems more likely to me that, like most ancient cultures, the Israelites acted out of self interest and then thought up an ideology which would condone thei...

@JohananRaatz China is a human rights disaster but I use it to show that the disorder and tendency towads socialism that characterizes europe is not a necessary result of secularism. Similarly, the example of europe shows that chinas flagrant human rights abuses need not characterize all secula...

Actually by this time the red army had already begun its march westward having beaten the gremans at kursk and stalingrad. Most historians agree that the main winners from a scenario in which normandy had failed would not be gremany but the soviets as Germanys defeat on the eastern front was a...

Putin intervened because Georgia attacked south Ossetia and was wantonly massacring civilians there. Russia was acting as a peacekeeping force in that region and had every right to act as it did. Also, the Russians withdrew from Georgia after the threat to south Ossetia was neutralized thereb...

Nobody objected to the aspects of his op-ed which elucidated the means by which a cohesive counterterrorism strategy could be developed. His ideas about redressing the ethnic balance in kashmir and using the baluch and sindh issues to expose the duplicity of pakistans foreign policy were admir...

@aajizana In 1965 pakistan lost over half its pre war tank force plus over 1,813 square miles of territory according to neutral sources so it was very much a triumph for india :P. And in 1971 a ceasefire was signed the day after the indian army began shelling lahore which is why the siege wa...

@nutbagticles torres is a striker so to compare him with suarez ( playmaker ) gerrard (CM) or kuyt ( winger) is pointless as they have different qualities which suit their different roles. The only pool player u can compare him to is his direct counterpart carrol and torres is faster and a be...

@lobolocoxx he probably would have played at chelsea coz they need a no 10 to play off torres. True about Ronaldinho but he only became a household name when he went to barca. Imo you have to play in a CL club for your name to be remembered and pastore has forgone that chance twice now which show...

@vibkeba Also yes I loved chelseas pragmatic style under mourinho and would continue supporting them regardless of how successful they are . Conversely , would u support PSG if u werent from paris? if not then you have no connection to the team besides the random coincidence that you were born i...

if he signs for a mid table french team rather than UCL regulars its a sign that he has no ambition , in which case i wouldnt have wanted him in blue anyway

@shinjiBGK who cares chelsea is still a bigger club than PSG could dream of being and compete in a bigger and more popular league.And theres no point in whining about abramovich investing in us and how things would have been different if he hadnt coz the fact is he did and we are one of the worl...

@mandy0208 Sigh ill break it down for you ,imbecile. A battle of wits with an unarmed person ie someone with no wits is not a battle,just a euphemism for me mocking an idiot. As for the cats reference , I just gathered from ur resentment towards men that ur a lonely old spinster with a load o...

@craigyt1 yeah id love to see hulk at chelsea but his buyout clause is ridiculous. Aguero seemas a more viable option as he indicated that he wants a move to the epl..... alternatively we could just use benayoun who always seemed to have a good understanding with torres on the pitch when they we...

@719faheem oh please innocent people? India is doing what it needs to do protect its interests from insurgents in kashmir and manipur and as for sikhs the khalistan movement is all but dead so thats a moot point. The civilian casualties in kashmir have been incredibly low for a 20 year occ...

@witheshaw no one is saying that news international is exclusively guilty of these practices but it is hoped that the action taken against them will herald the beginning of a broader campaign to prevent the press in general from violating peoples rights with impunity. In effect they are being ma...

This is quite an advertisement for eugenics

@SovietBear91 true , but the odds against napoleon were far steeper than those against GK. Genghis Khan faced the major powers he defeated one at a time wheras napoleon had to face coalitions of virtually every major power in europe 6 times and still prevailed in the majority of battles (and he ...

A real boxer vs a guy whos entire careeer consists of staged "fights" in wwe gosh its a real mystery how that would have ended :P
