I agree totally. The problem with electoral college and winner takes all results in states being ignored unless they are swing states. If you have...
No sure if this was already pointed out, but the US lost to Greece was probably a fluke. If the US played Greece best of seven, I think the US...
It depends what you mean by "capability". Right now the PLA does not have the kind of military power necessary to invade successfully so in that...
If you go by this assinine logic of "historical precedent" and ignore important facts, newdevelopments and differences, you could claim anything...
Tibet and Taiwan aren't really good comparisons. The Tibetan regime in Lhasa was a repressive, poor, backwards, lightly populated, lightly...
But it makes a big difference what that "intent" is exactly. There is a big difference between learning to shoot a rifle for fun, self-defense,...

But what about that fact that (from wikipedia): For the Japanese PM to visit a shrine that esponses such beliefs can only signal that he...
That site unfortunately doesn't tell the whole story. Yes the PLA did attack Indian positions, but that was after India and China had been...
Anyway, getting back on topic... As I mentioned before, Yasukuni Shrine enshrines many top level Japanese leaders who were responsible for a...
Not exactly. The boundary between India and China had been in dispute for quite some time. After India gained independence and the PRC was...
Israel is prosperous because it gets so much aid from the US. Without that aid, it would still be reasonably well off but the cost of its highly...
If so, which sports do you watch? Which would you never watch? Myself I occasionally watch women's tennis or Women's NCAA. I also watch women...
