incredibly nasty india The whole world agrees.

Oil is only worth what people are willing to pay for it, supply and demand. Given middle east's instability that number fluctuates greatly. You are trying to value a company where the oil is still in the ground, kind of counting chickens before they hatch. Why don't walmart discount its future...

stories like this are for the ignorant and/or stupid. Decades of war games have been conducted, Philippine hasn't improved their defence capabilities much at all.

china will be an economic superpower, but to suggest it will conduct a role similar to the united states is fallacy. The US has seen more foreign intervention since the establishment of the union (150 years) than China has throughout its 5000 years of history. The world is changing, but chinese...

One china policy / one china consensus. The people's republic of China is the legitimate government of China and Taiwan's official status is a province of by UN charters. A tiny island shielded by the west for 60 years is not chinese at all, true chinese died in the wars against foreign...

Viets like to live in self deluding bubble, when claiming their military strength they like to think of their opponents as sitting ducks with no defenses what so ever. They also like to show pictures of 1970s/80s weapon systems and proclaim them as the ultimate deterence.

How exactly do you plan to do that? China can hit Vietnam with shock and awe, are you only going to retaliate with your 1960s SCUD? Ask yourself how effective were the SCUDs Iraqi fired, Libyans fired? A lot of Viet posters live in a delusional world where you seem to think the Vietnamnese...

Pinoys do not mingle well with other asian countries / culture in general, centuries of colonisation has led them to believe they are white, hence the western names and mentality. Also partly explains why domestic servants in former anglo countries are disproportionately pinoy.

actually within 150km china can just shell your capital with basic artillery, send up a few ballistic missiles onto your airfields and ports. China has the dough and industrial capacity to continue to shell vietnam for a few decades, ask yourself what will be the city be like after only a week...

Yet everyone uses them, I guess that makes Chinese geniuses since they are making bank off "lower quality goods". Save the money build better stuff for themselves.

China is far more efficient at providing education to the masses. Chinese literacy rates reflects this and the international Pisa test results are a testament. Chinese focus is on higher education. The US spends a lot on education but their top tiered academic are disproportionately foreign...

They at just trying to scare north Korea with expensive hardware, too bad the north Koreans are probably not susceptible to the emotion of fear.

Discrediting Chinese hardware is just flip flopping in US politics, when it's time for funding reviews they naturally hype up their "china threat" theory. Once they get the money and the public gets agitated they will try and discredit the Chinese. Much like US elections, candidate who gets...

Who else sells ac period. Who else also sells a compliment of aircraft and weapon systems. India has no other choice but let the russians go at it to their pace.

Russian has the Indians exactly where they want them, so much sink costs. India has no leverage over the Russians, you can't buy an ac from any one else, and the indigenous one is already behind schedule and don't get started on that rust bucket of virrat. All India can do is throw money at the...

China is just buying time without softening it's stance, 5, 10 years down the track she will be powerful enough to dictate the rules in SCS. None of the countries in dispute can match china, economically, militarily or culturally, they also lack support from the international community. For self...

Ok taking your proppsed scenario: When Indian jets attempts to attack Chinese air fields in Tibet, the advantages of having higher topographymeans Chinese air defnce radars will pick up your fighters much earlier, from then it's a turkey shoot. Chinese targets in Tibet are spread out, none of...

The US expresses concern on a lot of things, but rarely do they have the cojones to do anything about it. They certain havn't got any when it comes to its sugardaddy.

Rare earth minerals are in fact not rare at all, but just hard to extract it. We don't known if Japan can carve a market out yet, their overheads are extremely high to begin with, china will only continue to do extract at their own pace. So it wouldn't be a question regarding balance of power...

Indian's tractors are too big, given Viraat's size its inefficient. But i guess there arn't many planes left for it.
