Indeed. The Daily Star is the most popular English-language newspaper. However, I feel it doesn't get to the point in my view. Many in the Indian media expressed similar views. It just doesn't cut it. A good general should always be inconspicuous and avoid controversy. We can criticize all we...

Indeed. Had Bangladesh posses a powerful military, the Burmese would have thought twice before committing toward this so-called 'campaign'. It is the only Muslim-majority country in the neighborhood. It did maintain peaceful relations with its pagan neighbors from its end. It never sought...

Indeed it is important. 'Maung', 'Ro', 'Shwe', 'Hlaing', 'Zeya', 'Aung' are not Bengali names at all. It is not uncommon actually. I have been looking for them, and seeing what they are like. Indeed, we do have cultural links with them. If anything, this is the missing part of our history...

Well, that saying is not that of some 'Bengali loosers'. It is actually the saying of a great Chinese warrior-philosopher. Conflict is an inevitable part of life. And you know what? We Bengalis managed those conflicts miserably within ourselves.

lolz...

I wonder, what is with those hats? Do they seriously wear those during operations? Sorry to say, but they provide very limited protection. I'm sure Myanmar operates bullet trains(?) Bengali is an ethnicity which includes the inhabitants of West Bengal, India. So keep that in mind. Look...

And India.

It's politics actually. http://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/japan-to-propose-obor-like-project-with-india-us-to-counter-china/story-A3jsZBRAuQ5yM8pEPYEDPP.html That's right. Japan has its own OBOR-like project with the usual suspects. Make Japan Great Again #MJGA That project doesn't take...

Is that guy on a roll or a troll? lol... I am glad I opened this thread.

The feeling is mutual :D I would say that American society is very confused. And I mean, extremely confused. The Europeans on the other hand are more balanced despite the rise of far right parties which isn't surprising to be honest. You are right, Trump is a symptom of 9/11. Luckily...

My apologies for the tardiness. I have been traveling lately. I never said that China wants to become like the USA. The Chinese premier said that China will 'lead' the world. There is a difference. Forget America's neighbors. The CIA had a long relationship with Nicaragua's Contra rebels...

So, China didn't support Bangladesh because of some port? Sounds really weird. A project may not happen for a multitude of reasons. And in this case, it was political. If you want it badly, you should focus on the Indians instead of focusing on the Americans. Seriously, don't underestimate...

Okay, whichever floats your boat your highness.

Read please: Just because the report is dated 1999, doesn't mean the events took place at that time. Weapon assessments take time. It's like shopping for groceries or playing a game of Command & Conquer as a lot of guys here think.

And still terrorism among Bangladeshi is statistically rare. There is no cycle that exist despite the isolated incidents you posted. It was necessary to drag Pakistan here for the sole reason being that the leader of the Rohingya rebel group was reportedly born, raised and trained in Pakistan...

Yes, they did. http://www.f-16.net/f-16-news-article188.html I know, it is a bit ironic. It took the US a long time to finally recognize Bangladesh. Bangladesh never participated in any anti-American activities. So we are on amicable terms with them. The country with whom we have an extremely...

BAF had been operating MiG-29's since the 90's. In fact, the MiG deal was signed in the mid 90's during the ruling AL government. BA uses BTR-80's. We asked the Americans for F-16's way back in the 80's, but they refused to sell them to us. Have you considered how much an F-15 costs? Not to...

The loser was brainwashed by Daesh propaganda. Given his failure, chances are that he would have been executed had he somehow escaped into a Daesh enclosure. Once one reaches an understanding and acceptance, then there would no reason to resort to violence. But then there are always one of...

To achieve energy security, a country has to implement a combination of renewable and non-renewable energy sources. Yes, it is true that a lot of big names in the private sector are now opening up power plants and banks are stepping in to take a bigger share of the pie. It is an attractive and...

I have a bad memory of Poodles. Once, I walked into a restaurant somewhere in Bangkok. The owner had a cute poodle. I was going to pat it, and it bite me! Such a savage!
