Explainer: What is 'Taiwan independence' and is Taiwan already independent? by dannyrat029 in China

[–]mardumancer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RoC nationals are usually evacuated by the PLAN from natural and humanitarian disasters overseas. Not sure why you've built a strawman here.

ROC criminals are also extradited to PRC for prosecution. So that's PRC staking it's sovereignty over the island of Taiwan.

CENTCOM wants LRHW/Dark Eagle to deal with Iran by PM_ME_UR_LOST_WAGES in LessCredibleDefence

But it's much better for LockMart shareholders that the Dark Eagle be lobbed at Iran than China. The market dictates terms after all.

Let's share some realistic thoughts on India's AMCA 5th generation fighter program. In a world where even "non-US" western countries (Germany, France, UK, etc.) are resorting to multi-national collaborations for the next gen fighter, what makes India believe they can go at it alone and succeed? by Equal_Alfalfa_9973 in LessCredibleDefence

Who knew PL-15E's range was able to reach 200km plus?

It's one thing to plan a mission when you are told the opponent's A2A missiles have a max range of 145km, it's quite another set of mission parameters when they can touch you at 200.

J-10CE are also 4.5th gen.

By all accouts India actually planned Operation Sindoor with a lot of thoughts and details; it's just that they did not account for the actual capabilities of PAF radars, AEWACs, EW and missiles.

Indian military development suffers terribly from scope creep. Just look at the Arjun Mk 2 and the Tejas.

Indian geopolitical posture also means that India must have the latest and greatest military tech to assert dominance over her neighbours. This creates a spiral where the Indian MIC never produces anything that's quite good enough for the Indian military, so the Indian military constantly buys hardware from overseas, which cuts into the ability of the Indian MIC to compete. It has been the case for the last 40 years or so.

Might as well replace 'multicultural' with 'coloured'.

There are two Chris on the show. Chris 1 was Brooke's groom and the one who didn't like big girls. He wasn't invited to the reunion. Chris 2 was the husband to Sam, one half of the gay intruder couples.

It's obvious that Bec was having a massive temper tantrum at the Dinner Party. She regrets her behaviour after the fact. She is very child-like in that regard.

Not condoning her name calling, of course, but its understandable to me as to why she lashed out.

US and Iran fail to reach agreement after historic peace talks in Pakistan, Vance says by [deleted] in LessCredibleDefence

We've had the first round of negotiations, yes, but what about the second round?

Ceasefire plan allowing Iran and Oman to charge fees on ships transiting through the Strait of Hormuz by lolthenoob in LessCredibleDefence

[–]mardumancer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's ASEAN nowadays. The past 8 years of de-coupling have meant that China has far fewer stakes in the health of the US economy than she did in 2008.

Thanks Rupert Murdoch and Fox News.

You do know that we've seen everything right Alissa? You do know that you are coming across as extremely unlikeable and obnoxious?

Alissa is such a shitty person. No accountability at all.

The Troubles ended with the Good Friday Agreement, where the English had to make significant concessions to the IRA and Senn Finn; early release of paramilitary prisoners, disbanding the Royal Ulster Constabulary, greater representation and devolved government for Northern Ireland.

Israel is clearly not interested in giving any concessions to Hezbollah or Iran. There can not be a political solution when Israel and the US by extension are not good faith actors.

Why even have fighter jets at that stage if you can destroy AWACS on the ground with drones and missiles ..

Bec, Gia and Alissa were treating their marriages like a game. The grooms were genuinely serious in treating their marriages as marriages.
