:lol:

So secure in them you felt the need to point out you had more than one
Just trying to show someone posting anti US nonsense and (almost?) pro China and Russia propoganda, citing a few facts to back up nonsense, has zero credibility. I can put up with this nonsense normally but there are real people losing their lives and you're posting uneducated crap about Russia and China and trying to argue the US are warmongers. Maybe the US are, maybe they're aren't but make no mistake, you don't need any degree to know the Russian and Chinese governments are evil.
 
Apparently Russian govt advised Indian govt to get them out.

Probably means an even worse shelling and bombing to come and Russia tipped India off.

India did abstain on the UN vote after all.
That's what I was thinking. I must say I thought all the foreign students etc would have been out of Ukraine or at least in the west of the country days ago.
 
Michael Wood's recent book is a good overview.

I did a course on it at Uni around 2006 but that was mainly in relation to how it responded to Europe in age of expansion and colonialism, v much China at its least confident

But for the reasons I say its probably biggest topic in History, imagine ancient Egypt, then Rome, then the entirety of European history since AD 0, in one geographical and cultural centre- that's what it is.
Very interesting. Thanks mate.
 
Does anyone know what this is about? Some sort of tip off?

Not really a tip off. Even our Ben Wallace said it, disregard a Tory all you like but he's actually next in line to be NATO's next commander so his words are worth listening to.

But Ben has said he expects Russia to start flattening places who are resisting hard. Kharkiv is pretty much #1 in that regard.

Good info, cheers.
