I agree with all you regarding the normative reasons behind the mission, as I truly beleive the Afghan people deserve to finally live in peace after 300 years of almost constant warfare. But the thing that worries me the most is how all the hippies and "soft-power will safe the world liberals"...
If Turkey goes ahead with an all out incurssion I do not expect the Iraqi army doing that much. The most probable outcome will be the Iraqi government bargaining with the Turkish in order to reach a deal that would minimize their stay within Iraqi borders. Also, It is quite probable that the...
For a while Turkey wanted to get its hands into the Iraqi Kurdistan. I think the only thing that was working as a deterrance was the pressure of the US and the EU. But after the French and Americans passed the bills declaring the Armenian Genocide as a Genocide it gave an excuse to Turkish...
I could not finish it. For every inference that movie made in the first 20 mins, anyone could easy prove it wrong. I heard that what is really relevant was the second part of the movie. But meh conspiracy movies are just rethoric and obscure sourcing
Christopher Spencer, who is a Canadian academic and former member of the Canadian IC, argued the same in an article published back in 1996. Technically he said that the Canadian Intelligence Community is too small to efficiently tackle all the threats and assess all the oportunities that have...
That is brutal. I am about to get my membership for CASIS, but the main issue I have is that they do not organize enough events here in the West, although some members are trying to change that. My intell. prof who attended the meeting in Edmonton mentioned that there was a lot of discussion...
It is a very obscure unit for sure. Some people at my unit have heard of them but no idea where they are. I think they may be located at the Jericho garrison but that is only an unfounded assumption. Hopefully some one from the units there may know if this is true
Hello,
I was wondering if anyone knows the number for recruitment or the orderly room of the Vancouver detachment of the 6th Intelligence company. I have made research on the forums, search engines and even the main website of the company but there are no numbers nor emails to contact them. So...
Hello,
I was wondering if there are any gyms in Vancouver that give free access to members of the Canadian Forces? I think I heard some time ago that there was a gym in Kitsilano that used to do this. Also does anyone know if there is a gym in the Jericho Garrison that can be used by members of...
I do not think he will appoint himself President for another long term since spring last spring he stated that this was going to be his last mandate. However, the whole "crown prince" theory is quite likely to happen. Basically the Russian Federation is being run by a syndicate of former...
Hopefully this will push for further involvement of the Spanish contingent in Afghanistan. However, thanks to Mr. Zapatero I doubt it will happen at a significant level. I miss the days of PM Aznar
Hmmm... speaking about weekend courses I was wondering if anyone knows when are they likely to start this year (specially in BC)? Also, reading older threads I noticed that some members have mentioned some 2 block weekend BMQ courses during the fall, do these still exist? and if they do how are...
Not surprising, specially taking into consideration how ethnic Russians that live outside the Rus. Federation have become in a major interest for the foreing policy-makers in Moscow. First Georgia, now the Baltics. Actually I beleive that was a big source for confrontation in the last EU -...
A realist scholar would argue that this is a consequence from the longstanding conflictive relations between Afghanistan and Pakistan. Pre-Taliban governments since the days of partition wanted to annex the NWFP and the Waziristan provinces to create a homeland for all the Pashtun of Central...
