If China attacked India, do you think Russia would even give you 3 seconds of support, never mind 3 years? What Russia does for its own interests are no representation of how much support they would give for the interests of others. They're sure as hell not going to send 700,000 troops to get killed and limbless on the India border.

No and neither would the US. Requests for help were made in '62 and were turned down.

That's why India pursued an independent defence policy and an independent nuclear program.

Ukraine very likely wouldn't have been invaded had they kept their nukes and operationalized them instead of listening to the empty promises made by the US & UK that they will hold Russia to its word not to invade on the condition Ukraine give up its nukes.

How is it relevant here? Our military and foreign policy are designed to fight conflicts without partners. That's because that's what history has taught us.

UK and European nations need to wake up and stop taking advantage of American military guarantees and NATO. You should worry about that not indian border.

From Day-1, we know that Russia isn't gonna help us with anything in a conflict with China. Its not that they aren't willing, its that they are incapable. The reason why India's close relationship with Russia is to buy the "Neutrality" lest it turns into supporting China.

You haven't even bought neutrality. China has funded Russia in this war, provided dual-purpose vehicles and probably shipped in weapons via North Korea too. Russia will be on China's side against India. India's neutrality doesn't buy neutrality, that's just a belief it's conned itself into.

Just saying, there seemed to be an underlying assumption that Russia was a more reliable partner for defence. They're not. They're only reliable partners with themselves. So if you're an independent nation, the US is still a more reliable choice. Ukraine had no other choice in this war, it was either fight or lose their sovereignty and be imprisoned in the 'going nowhere' economic bloc that is the EEU (Eurasian Economic Union) and have Georgian-style elections where the vote count is nowhere even close to the exit polls.

Look at the reasoning this certified PoS is giving as if he's a real well wisher of India. He's bugged Trump has won coz Trump will bring about an end to the war whereas Euro chumps want to use Ukraine to sink Russia. All this when the entire EU economy is going down the drain & if it isn't UK's economy certainly is .

Does UK have the wherewithal to go against Russia on its own ? Nope. Did the ordinary British volunteer to go fight in Ukraine ? Nope. Will the ordinary British volunteer to go fight in Ukraine ? Absolutely not . Yet they don't mind fighting Russia to the last Ukrainian .

Why would Iran want that?

US-based plutocrats on the other hand, especially those of the leftist globalist variety, would have a lot of reasons.

Because Trump is literally the worst possible president for Iran or their H-group terrorists. He's against a 2-state solution and is going to introduce new sanctions on Iran. Iran may even get bombed under Trump.


Nobody on the Democrat side is going to kill Trump, the backlash would be too severe. No point turning an imbecile into a martyr, just let people realise he's an imbecile instead. I realised this during his first term, others are a little slow.

This could be one of the reasons Paddy's such great self confidence. He truly believes everything he writes to be true. Then he actually comes up with questions like - what's there of importance in the Middle East ?

Hell not even RST is half as confident as Paddy is about what he puts out here , although RST may pretend otherwise.

Truly there's no greater evil in the world than stupidity. How I wish we had the capital punishment for stupidity ? The Paddys & the peacefuls would claim genocide but the world would be a much safer place.

It's called Noora Kushti out here or shadow boxing out there. He's reacting to news the Pentagon is deliberating on how would they react to controversial orders by Trump.

If you recall I think it was Gen Milley Joint Chief of Staff who went of record saying he'd refuse to implement an "illegal' order by Trump.

Trump is a Reality TV star . He thinks of life as the same. Why should his attitude be any different as President? People like a spectacle , give it to them . That's his motto.

The Roman Empire had their Emperor , his court , the Senate , grand games in the Coliseum etc . The Amerimutts have TV , Reality TV & Trump . Tell them , will ya sweetie ? @Innominate

No, this is wrt what he's been saying about how the withdrawal was planned & executed - leaving billions worth of weapons & equipment in Taliban hands.

That's what he expects accountability about.

Done.

Thread 'The Trump Administration: News & Analysis'

Use this thread to post any updates & discussions regarding the 2nd Trump Administration (2025-2029), its policies & how they effect domestic & international events.

Topics may include the members of Trump's Cabinet, inner circle (Elon Musk, RFK Jr. etc) and the wider power structure within the US political system as it clashes with the new administration.

Unfortunately for us while Paddy is daft enough to try this he's too clumsy to aim correctly which leaves out sweetie . Now sweetie's too young to get a partner but young enough to be someone's biatch. Plus sweetie loves guns except xis / xer own which may have got lobbed off during the transition but loves that of other people with the bigger the better always being sweetie's motto. @Innominate

Meanwhile Trump being Trump is having a ball roasting his opponent & everyone who opposed him while gloating at his own victory twisting his knife in his haters's sides just for kicks .

He's antagonised just about everybody & anybody with power , made a lot of enemies but got what he desired desperately against all odds.

Got to hand it to him whichever way this ends whether in 4 years or before .

Truly Destiny's Child if ever there was one .
