I hope the country doesn't decsend into Civil war, especially with the military staying neutral in the political infighting - we can only hope it is not another Lebanon. I'm guessing the US isn't keen on a people's party (communists - or centre left islamists) (PPPP) taking over the country...

What if obama wins, maybe bush isn't interested in Obama having a two year old spy satalite at his disposal.. maybe not. You'd think they'd be able to fix it or something. Maybe it is all a front and the cloaking system is set to engage after the missles are launched to add the ultimate red...

Appache helicopters were one of the touted "tank killers". Ultimately Precision guided bombs have the ultimate advantage. I am currious as to the effects of "camaflouge, and conceilment on image guided bombs.  EG. if a picture of tank is input, what if the tank were dressed up in a tank halter...

Seems like they've started the pullback.

“It is really unfortunate that Russia chooses to react by putting nuclear warheads in different places – if indeed it does that  " Anyone else find that line funny? PS anyone finding the war of words to be beyond lame and to the bombard them with Russia bad bad mumbo jumbo in an effort to...

Anyone wanna take a long shot bet that instead of a withdrawl the capital will be taken? what do you think the odds are 1:100,000 1:1,000,000?

In regards to the redeployment - if so - has anyone tracked the troop buildup, if indeed this wasn't done with regular numbers of units on the Russian Military bases in the area. Eg. Did it happen when Turkey mobilized 200,000 personnel against the Kurds, or another time? Was this information...

PS here is a slightly unbiased report from yesterday - although the body count is very much unsubstantiated, however bearing the populations of the border villages razed by Georgia you would think the number to be more than 45. For that mater the bear minimum is 45 with Russia's estimate being...

Ok what would you call mass murder of an ethnic population , while forcing more than 50% of the population of a fairly large region to flee their homes? With about 60% of the population directly effected, and no signs showing that the process would stop without intervention?

US doesn't officially talk to Cuba - who else cares?

Actually I have a regular log in to many websites - the reason for using that login is due to the simplicity of the name. I think one would need to research the missle sheild system a little before making comments about how it is only usable for defensive purposes. Part of the issue is that if...

What happened to the Ukraine with the gas supplies. They started being normalized with global gas prices rather than giving them gas for a fraction of the world market cost? Then those who had to pay the actual free market rates started whining..

PS "We do not have any solid proof that the people behind this C&C server are Russian." The program was Machbot. "Georgian hackers have retaliated with their own cyber attacks on Russian websites" "The Russian government has officially denied any involvement in the web warfare. " Anyone...

Not sure if you remember when the "underground" knocked down the RIAA - music industry websites, inlcluding breaking in and taking their tracks. http://news.cnet.com/2100-1023-947072.html this is just one of many times that there has been coordination.. but it really doesn't take a lot -...

has you wonder about how Russia feels about the poland deal...

The put a Belgian Ambassador in as Civilian head of the government - guessing to shore up support with the EU (*and its aid)

0.02 Taiwan is a provience of CHina that has been occupied by one side of a civil war for generations - the UN backed that notion years ago, which is why China sits at the UN and Taiwan does not. It is only a matter of time before the gap between Taiwan and China is mostly non existant - with...

Yah it could be - let's wait and find out after the coroners report is released. I have the feeling suddent impact due to a motor vehicle crash at high speed may be the cause of death.. I can only geuss bullet holes arn't there  and paint of other vehicles on the side of the thing would be clear...

True, I don't know why i see it that way, it isn't worry about people trained to use lethal force and national security and martial law and stuff for reasons of protection of the property there - but oddly it is fear of being stripped searched at random that pops into my head - I've only been on...

All this seems to demonstrate the relatively light security at CFBes. You'd expct a multigate system with the ability to stop cars (caltrops or spikes) or some type of deployable barrier that needs to be opened, but then again why pay if you have nothing there that one car could damage other...
