If I'm not mistaken, @Nilgiri is a Tamil. I'd trust that he is a legal resident in Canada. How does his ethnicity impact the matter anyway? How did he assume that you are a Bengali, that is the question. But seriously, is this the quality coming of your line of Think Tanks @Oscar @waz ...

If the Islamists did gather any support to begin with, then the matter should have been solved long ago wouldn't it? I'm not even going to start with the young people here. I understand that there are challenges with regards to education. But just how is the current education system 'worse'...

And who may this 'Nahid' be? Define 'stone-age' education system. Anyway. You know, I once came across a humble imam one day. I befriended him. He has a young son who goes to an English-medium school. I found it to be nice, but at the same time a odd that he isn't in a madrasa. I asked why he...

Wasn't Egypt a powerful pagan empire once? Why do countries follow a secular way? Well, it is easy to implement. It makes conflicts easy to manage. Bring religion in, you have more conflict. Knowledge is power. It doesn't matter which region it came from. Somebody ought to give those Madrasa...

Which is sad.

My beloved iajdani? :lol: I did say here that it is a great plane. And may even be perfect for BD's requirements. I don't think I said they were free(?) Now isn't that obvious? Technically, he is a troll. Most of the older members here know this. Whatever happened to the saying 'don't...

Yeah, that is because they are all off-topic.

Opinions aside, I do not think that anyone had compared Bangladesh to Sweden's weapons manufacturing capability. They are world's apart on all metrics. No one's disputing that fact. I believe @TopCat main point was that nobody buys the Gripen since it isn't much of a 'game changer'. Of-course...

Well, Thailand is not a Democracy. And it never has been. Operating too many types of aircraft is a bad idea. Should be limited to two platforms. I still baffles me why they ordered F-7's in the 21st century. Su-30's should fit the bill. But they are very big and very heavy. And that can...

I'm yet to see any normal American saying 'I can't wait to immigrate to Russia' (unless you are Edward Snowden) or something :lol: Yes, I have seen Canada's immigration website closed down due to their server unable to handle the traffic. But I say it was just moral panic. But if that is so...

The main reason why Trump won is primarily because of jobs. He promised them jobs. Others like Muslims, transgender rights, abortion are only secondary. From my references, the job situation over there was mediocre at best. Healthcare may also be one other issue (about which Mr. Trump is...

That was what Turkey did during the Kargil Conflict. That was how the Pakistanis kept the F-16's flying. Those two have history together. I'm aware that the Americans did impose sanctions on both the 65' and 71' war, but that doesn't answer my questions. It's worth mentioning that Iran and...

Some suspected him to be Bihari (which of-course he so predictably denied). I never understood him. I suspect he's schizophrenic. Asad71. Al-Zakir? Saiful Islam? I don't agree with a lot of what Zakir bhai has to say. But he is at least honest and we respect each other's opinions. And that...

They are old actually. And from what I gathered, he did serve in the military way back since the Pakistan days. Also, remember @idune ? Those guys are really old.

In the 90's? I doubt it. There was talk about it some years back. It was claimed by the Indian media. Both Bangladesh government and the U.S. denied those reports.

Malaysia already retired their MiG-29's. All eight of BAF's MiG's are in flyable condition. Plot twist: Those are actually Burmese. The reasons for difficulties with MiG's early on had been discussed to death in this very forum. I can't believe people are still spreading these over it.

You know, the "SEE YOU IN COURT" Tweet really made me lol hard this morning :rofl: I thank him for the good laugh.

So suppose if a bunch of terrorists crossed over from France into U.K. territory. And French fighter planes bomb them in British territory. Would your leaders tolerate it? Definitely not. I don't know what sort of 'agreement' the Pakistanis and Iranians had with one another. Does that...

It was a Canadian matter because there were Canadian firms and individuals involved. Rest of your post were irrelevant.

They do it for the money. That's it. There's one time when they did it for free. By the way, the theory that Dr. Yunus tried to influence to cancel WB funding of Padma Bridge is in a way fictitious in itself. There is no proof of that either.
