So when I read this about the latest Taliban success – https://www.rt.com/news/398752-taliban-afghanistan-seized-sayad/ – I thought:
I wonder what the symbolic (perhaps esoteric) meaning of this whole failure to conquer the Afghan-world-island-heartland thing could be?
The answer that arrived was:
It’s something to do with wanting to claim the…[Read more]-
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.

Who is the tail and who is the dog? Another development in the ongoing Team Saudi (now including Israel) spat with Qatar, this time via closure of the Qatari media organization Al Jazeera, whose offices are being closed in Jerusalem.

Well well well…. what has prompted this change? The Saudi position is now that the affairs of Syria are not the Saudi state’s business…. how bizarre a statement from one of the sponsors of the insurgents/rebels/ISIS.

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]-

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”.

If he is Sun Yat-sen’s godson, it wouldn’t be all to surprised, however, my guess is that he could only influence Sun Yat-sen’s government. After Chiang Kai-shek took over Sun Yat-sen’s government, he was doing some kind of Communist extermination, that is why the split of the Song Sisters, the middle Lady Song opposed Chiang Kai-shek’s policy,…[Read more]

Well, I guess we’re not allowed to post a comment from another website’s article on here, even if it’s to illustrate how illiterate and brain-washed many of the post millennial generation are. First time I’ve been censored on GDS. Very surprised, considering everything else that gets posted to this community wall.

Russia and China are calling for a ‘comprehensive’ solution to the problem; US removes THAAD, No. Korea cooperates. Hmmn. Shades of the Cuban Missile Crisis. Wonder why MSM never talks about this?
