You know what they say about people like you claiming to be 'experts' while all other are 'noobs' to you.. I'm not going to elaborate. The wiser folks on this forum can draw their conclusions from your petting rants as to who you really are and how much you really know. :) A sad excuse to...

Do you have anything else to offer other than tongue-in-cheek one-liners? If you do some research, you will realize that Ukraine only has about 6,000 combat ready troops (& this doesn't tell us how good their equipment or training is). Ukraine never really made an effort of investing much in to...

You probably don't read the news I'm sure. China's factory output has dropped off, the price of iron ore has dropped on the international market because demand from China has weakened. All this means, lower growth which means, China won't be replacing Europe anytime soon for all that Russian gas...

Source of your intel please? Or do people here have a habit of making claims without any evidence?

You should try standup comedy; leave serious discussion for the adults. :)

You know what they say about a dog's tail; that's seems to be your case. Like I said, I have no intentions to babysit you on war strategies and how conflicts work. In short, when you break the 'will to fight' of the opposing force, you have won. Both the Russians and the Americans lost that will...

Does not create new consumers? Are you serious? Ever heard of something called the 'black market' - of which there is one for everything in a country like Pakistan. Consumers will find ways to consume. Calling all alcohol consumers 'addicts' obviously shows you have NO CLUE what you are talking...

Apparently, you seem to have missed the memo where Europeans have made contacts with Qatar to source oil & gas to move away from dependence on Russia. In the end, Russia will end up holding an empty bag much like Iran. All that oil and gas is useless if no one will buy it from you.

That's a useless argument to make. Do you know how much money Pakistan has to spend on people getting sick from illegal moonshine and other alcohol abuse problems? Its also in the billions (rupees in Pakistan's case) & yet by not making alcohol legal and not generating tax revenues which could...

WHAT??? Did you even read what you just wrote or you just make comments for the sake of saying something? Putin is a horrible politician. His opponents drop dead without much notice. Wait till your General Sisi becomes the new Hosni Mubarak. You had your chance with democracy; you chose Sisi...

Well I guess I don't have to introduce myself since you already seem to know that I am some 'kid'. Great way to show your 'senior' status by the way, with name-calling. Very classy Sir. You set a marvellous example for new members :) My comment had NOTHING in it that was directed against any...

If I wanted to read copy-paste information from Wikipedia, I could've gone and read it by myself. Your figures of 10% modernization a year are laughable since you have NO proof of what you are claiming. You are simply plucking figures out of thin air. So lets start, shall we? The S-500, we...

You did not add anything 'constructive' to the discussion either. Being a 'senior member' hopefully isn't grounds for special treatment here I hope. Bottomline is, it is no one's business if the Turks drink or how much they drink. As a country and a society, they are successful when you compare...

I don't care how bad Putin is either, my whole point is to bring attention to the horrible precedent Russia is setting because of him. The only people who like Putin are either his crony buddies who have gotten dirty rich by siding with him and those that watch Russian state television to shape...

Just because you don't agree with the constitution, doesn't make it into a joke. If it was such a joke, why was Yanukovich ruling Ukraine under that constitution? Why didn't his govt tear it up n write up a new one? Your arguments are nothing but a smokescreen. And it doesn't matter to a point...

Instead of resorting to name-calling like a child, it would've been very interesting to see how much progress Russia has made on that commitment. The link you provided is from 2011, so out of the 10yrs, there's only 7yrs left to complete such a massive modernization drive. Please update us, as...

All these folks saying 'no' to FREE MRAPs from the Americans; I used to hear a term for such people back in Pakistan = 'phannay khan' and the thinking is called 'khalifagiri'..

Oh! And in your opinion Putin 'cares' for his people? lmfao! that would be the joke of the century if you say yes..

And here it is, what I said, either they will join NATO or atleast enter in to a special partnership. Who do you think will train and equip this new modern army of Ukraine that the new PM is talking about according to Reuters? It will all be Western training and equipment. Russia axed its own...

Good one 'xenon54', that is indeed the case. Lots of our fellow Muslims don't even know the difference between 'secularism' and 'atheism'.
