I don’t trust India any more than China. They’ve been sending spies here for decades. They learn stuff at our schools and industries, then go back and screw us over.

One thing which bothers me is watching Indian police and military respond to a terrorist attack.

Most of them were carrying SMLE Enfields of WWII vintage.

These postings about the conflict between India and China without including a map of the region concerned are meaning less.

The Indians supported the Soviets because in 1971 Nixon sent an aircraft carrier into the Bay of Bengal to threaten India

The Indians also have the same love/hate relationship with the UK as Americans do. And, just like Americans, they do seem to love the British people.

The latter is because the British knew when to leave in 1947 rather than be thrown out like the French in IndoChina and Algeria

I’m guessing that’s a joke.

However it does have a grain of truth. Tge actual British presence in the subcontinent was tiny. They mostly had the Indian nations ruling themselves with money going to the UK.

Anybody on our side?

Yeah. 600 million screaming Chinamen.

I thought there were a billion screaming Chinamen.

There were.

(what a difference 36 years makes)

[“Nation shall rise against nation...”]

Not bad, but it’s actually “kingdom shall rise against kingdom” in this particular case.

“Nation shall rise against nation...” is “ethnos shall rise against ethnos” - ethnic group shall rise against ethnic group.

It seems redundant until one finds out the Greek word behind “nation”.

(FWIW)


Matthew 24:7 New King James Version (NKJV)

7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places.


[Make sure Jesus is your Savior before it’s too late.]

AMEN TO THAT!

WTF is wrong with China?

They’re flailing about like a chicken with it’s head cut off. Sorry to if I mixed metaphors.

Those who choose the cheaper foreign made goods over the Made in USA label are making the same choice.

Yeah, but just on their way to the big Cherokee casino out near Catoosa. Those guys love to party and gamble, so one hears.

[This is because two fools got into a fist fight last week.

Pretty sure this is not an Arch Duke moment.]


Full-scale wars don’t occur by accident. Extraordinary funds have to be appropriated, troops and equipment have to be moved, plants have to be repurposed for war production and reductions in non-war expenditures have to be made. A fistfight or even a skirmish involving battalion-sized units really means nothing.
