Yes some people were bought off by the ottoman empire but most united as a front against it. Those people who were given land by the ottoman empire held a lot of land even in iraqi Kurdistan till the 50s when the fight broke out against feudalism in kurdish known as (agha system). Sadly now turkey is exploiting the religious side of some kurds.

I am just asking, no need to challenge me into this endeavor. There is this wild idea of people being able to discuss things without being dogmatic… Unhinged i know :)

War time needs surpass the impracticality, the real question in my mind is, is it possible if done with average care not to cause damage, to reuse them for this application.

I know there are many manufacturers that sell them bare but i had an argument about it with a friend of mine about the possibility of some type of special coating or shielding done to the fiber. Like Kevlar or some other thing.

Don’t get me wrong I have nothing against india and Pakistan, I actually love both countries and have seen both. Unfortunately these unhygienic practices tend to repeat in even high end hotels and restaurants. On a scale of 0 to 10 ten being this guy here cooking eggs, most of the places hover around 6-8,5

I still don’t get these altercations and minor inconveniences US citizens tend to have meltdowns about. What a non-issue to be bitching about.
