    Very interesting and worth to watch although the video has some annoying audio problems.

    The term “Taliban militants” is a little vague here. Could be a “tribal” matter? Anyway the “Taliban” movement was largely initiated by the US through Saudi puppets (who have their own religious axe to grind). The Russians could say a lot more about this than they have.

    The Lost Art of Archery ..

    • Italian historical re-enactments involve a lot of archery and crossbow compet itions using targets in a public square, sports field etc. However, in practice sessions the archers go into the woods (duly fenced) which is much more fun. In England there are longbow re-enactments mimicking battle but these require a lot of space for safety purposes…[Read more]

    Admission of ineptness?

    • Yes, that is the view of a couple of the commenters on the article. However, the opening statement sounds so much like the ones Russia has been saying for the past couple of years… makes one wonder who they have been speaking to!

    • Thank you Eve. I see the two different languages are quite different with some concepts having no words in English. Nevertheless, I find your explanations valuable and helpful and I feel I understand more from them. Thank you.

    In complex dynamic systems that reach the critical state, the most catastrophic event that can occur is an exponential function of scale.

    This means that if you double the system, you do not double the risk; you increase it by a factor of five or 10.

    • This coincides with what C.A. Fitts has been saying recently about the increasing likelihood of “crash” events.
      This does not mean actual collapse of human interaction for purposes of material-cum-social exchange, i.e. the real economy, but a “virtual shredding” of the derivatives pile. The question is, can human society at least begin to restore…[Read more]

      • For the bankster class a haircut to THEIR fees instead of to the bank account of the ordinary person is seen as an event no less catastrophic than an asteroid careening into the Earth.

    I would recommend anyone with a minimum of language apt itude to study Chinese or at least have their kids study it. Too hard? Not at all: as my teachers used to say, “It is not difficult, but it is not easy”.
