Well, 22 isn't really a kid. I would think a pretty average age for a patrolman and although, ambassadors rank security, it's not like they are so high up that people can't get to them, obviously.

Nope. 100% Anglo-Saxon, American and Catholic. :usflag:

She is also known as one of the most open, anti-Muslim bigots in Congress, which is her real motivation here and why she has teamed up with the likes of conspiracy theorist Rep. Dana Rohrabacher. You might note her actual background...

Requiscat in pace, for the poor ambassador.

Apparently , the mayor of Ankara has told some reporters that the gunman was a Turkish policeman. I haven't read through all the posts. Has anyone else mentioned this? http://nypost.com/2016/12/19/russian-ambassador-to-turkey-shot-in-targeted-attack/...

Nobody? I've ordered and eaten it for years in such places and you are literally, the very first person to tell me that "Nobody" eats that. :) Naan, chapati/roti, what difference does it make?

Pretty much agree with your whole post. :enjoy: Great observations!

You mean before or after he invaded his neighbours, Iran and Kuwait? :azn:

I like it but whenever I have dined in a Pakistani restaurant I always order my favorite dish; Palak Gosht with some freshly baked Naan!

Even though US/Turkish relations have not been good at all lately and I am an American, I think the OP is more than just a bit far fetched. Although it's become a bit less secular, it is still a modern, secular state with one of the most professional armed forces in the region or in NATO. In...

"I would rather be governed by the first two thousand people in the Boston telephone directory than by the two thousand people on the faculty of Harvard University." - William F. Buckley I agree with Bill. :enjoy:

:omghaha: I saw that live on TV. Beck Bennett's Putin is awesome! Trump is a lightweight though, compared to Putin.

Look, I am not going to go through the extremely long and very complicated history of Pakistan's involvement in Afghanistan, which is far older and more extensive than the American one, and just as fraught with consequences, that Pakistan now suffers from. What I will say is that even if I...

No. It had everything to do with the Pakistan armed forces battles with the TTP in North Waziristan, as per Pakistan's own intelligence concerning that attack. What else it had to do with the wider 'War on Terror' suggest that you believe either of both, that a.) Pakistan should not respond...

Give me a break! Pakistan's lifting of the moratorium on the death penalty for terrorists had everything to do with the Peshawar Army Public School attack, that killed 132 children, and nothing to do with the USA. Give Pakistan some credit!

:enjoy: Joyeux Noel, Monsieur!

You may be right, but there will inevitably be a China/Russia struggle that cannot be stopped. China sees itself not Russia, as the next undisputed world superpower and so at some level, China is going view Russia as the most likely rival to that spot, (next to the US). The Russians realize...

In the United States, funerals are a gigantic scam between what are called funeral homes, that arrange them and their years of collusion with government officials to pass laws that encourage needless costs such as lined burial plots, outrageously expensive coffins, etc. Average American price...

Unlike almost all of the leaders of western Europe and north America, Russian president Vladimir Putin is on track of having the best Christmas of his life. His armed forces, whom are assisting the allied Assad regime in Syria, have made tremendous progress in defeating insurgent groups in that...

Good idea and Pakistan and KSA have had long military ties already. PAF advisers staffed RSAF bases when I was there, back in the 1980's.
