It's the busy time for students and pencil-pushers alike.

I would imagine it to be the bad economy, and the shortage of electricity...Even pakistan's high populated urban areas spend more time without electricity and less time with electricity

Kashmir probably is at the bottom of the list right now<

Never underestimate the stupidity of voters.
In reality you are correct in that Kashmir is a minor problem, a small issue, but in reality making promises about Kashmir brings in idiot voters by the thousands.... I'd use an analogy but I can't be arsed, I'm too tired.

People have the need for sex, denying that is going against your nature and causes a lot of frustration, but that doesn't mean you have to get a baby from it. It's simply not possible to only have reproductive sex. If that's really what you think: good luck lad, you're trying something what never worked throughout the entire history of mankind!

Murder is not a normal biological drive, we are not normally driven to pointlessly kill each other, we are normally biologically driven to hold each other down and [fornicate] each other in the ass.
You could try this argument again using hunting for meat, but then again we are Omnivorous so in that respect our only "need" would be to eat what is available which preowns your next argument I believe

No. The Pakistani people will vote for whoever they think will solve the Kashmir problem (and by solve I of course mean take).

Unless the next president has to win votes by promising to oust the foreign infidels.

AAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Ahem, sorry, terribly rude of me. Haven't we already heard this, something about capturing Osama Bin Laden by Christmas/Easter?

>That will Solidify his Legacy as a GREAT president with the foresight to take on the Wahabists and Radical Islam.<

Like how giving America a budget surplus created a Great President Legacy for Clinton? He'll be remembered forever as a warmongering chimp and we all know it.

>Amazing how REAGAN is now worshiped.  Even by the likes of Obama.
Yet, when he was in power.....Reagan was:

A dummy.
the least educated President.
A dolt
A Cowboy.
A warmonger.

Hmmm....sounds familiar.<

Sounds familiar? That is probably because people still call Reagan all of those things.

No speculation in my house. Let me use this to help you gain an insight into the Russian mind: It is never the poison that kills you, it is your heart stopping that kills you. See?

the cost of such a war would be much higher then the gains. Not like in georgia were europes energy insurance and hence russians power to blackmail europe hangs in the balance for a fairly easy military intervention.

I agree however its a longterm possibility we have to take into account. Also for other countries there.<

The cost would be large, yes, but the strategic gains of holding Ukraine would be enought to allay any paranoia concerning the American missiles in [I can't spell it, sorry].

>@fokker:
yell edits so far are only correction of insults, he doesn't change the meaning. His neutrality shows because he edits posts of rightwingers as well, and in the same way. What are you so upset about?<

1) There was no insult in my post
2) Even if there was an insult in my post he should have edited that and that only.

>"goluboj" literally means light-blue but when talking about men it means "gay"<

Given that I refer to myself as Red I think it is safe to assume that I was not using the term in it's archaic insulting form. Although I will admit that I specifically chose Light Blue over Dark Blue for a reason.

[EDIT]

>If a Ukrainian speeks like this, what do the Russians think?<

Half think Putin is god and his word should be followed immediately and exactly even if they don't understand why their great economic saviour wants them to stand on the steps of a foreign embassy and harrass the staff (Aren't chavs great?).

The other half, the ones who actually follow politics and world events and weren't breastfed fluroide, are seeing the prick who surfed to political godhood on the economic wave created by Boris Yeltsin starting to confirm their worst fears.

I am not sorry, I stand defiant, head held high, knowing that my example has encouraged activity... But if it is any consolation I am suffering a major writers block right now.

"Fokker, whether you yourself have already abused the power to post obscenities in an alphabet I can't read I am not sure;"
I have not, such behaviour is cheap, tacky, and, in my opinion, cowardly.

"that such a privilege would be abused by persons on this forum, I am certain; that I won't set the stage for it by permitting the practice, I am committed;"
Fair enough, can not argue with that.

Never heard of him (What a surprise!) was this a Pre-Kruschev era? Interesting story though; Why was he whacked, do you know?

I can't remember, apart from the Goluboy part

How about you stop abusing your forum-powers for your own ends and put my post BACK? That would be really impressive. X(
