| Hello, my name is Alkis. I am glad to join this forums. I have been in other forums before. I found this by chance and I liked it so I registered.
P.S. If anyone can tell me how to make it so that my post background is just one big image instead of repeating I will greatly appreciate it. (edited by Alkis on 12-28-06 01:52 AM) |

| I don't see why you're all talking about Russian power in the world stage. The USSR is over, Russia has very little money. Mexico surpasses Russia in nominal GDP. All Russia has now is nukes and old weapons from the Soviet days, and even if they're still good, they can't resupply properly in a war, and they wouldn't last long in an invasion. The only things that protect them are nukes the thing that always has, the Russian winter, and even both can be surpassed. (edited by beneficii on 12-28-06 03:59 AM) |

| Building a base on the moon would facilitate many things. Launching a spaceship from the Moon is easier than launching a spaceship from Earth, because of the reduced gravity.

| Nowadays the world situation is becoming more Asia and EU centered than US centered.
More and more American products are being made in China, chemical industries are all going to India. The US is outsourcing everything, it is becoming a consumer-only country. The dollar continues to fall in value against the Euro (€), which is already approximately worth USD$1.60 and rising. The obsoleteism of the US armed forces is being proved loud and high in the current war in Iraq. The Cold-war ideals of massive tank battles, dogfights, and nuclear strategy are useless. A $3 million dollar tank can be blown up with an IED (improvised explosive device) or RPG launcher, which costs about $200, each RPG about $20. High-energy lasers can easily shoot down a plane or incoming nuclear missiles. China and USA can't go to war easily. There is a very small chance it will ever happen. The US economy depends on Chinese manufacture and China depends on US money. Of course, the Chinese army is twice as big, just as advanced, the Chinese Air Force, even if the majority of it's planes are outdated, it has many, many modern planes such as the J-10, the massive production capabilities, and massive resources. The Chinese Air Force outnumbers the USAF 10 to 1. The Chinese are producing 10 diesel attack submarines a week. While the US increases production on each factory, China just makes more factories to keep up with demand. The US builds one power plant every year on average. China builds one power plant a week. I could go on and on and on, but I think that's enough to prove my point. China is the most powerful country in the world. It only has to dig deeper into international politics, and voilà, it becomes a world superpower. Tomorrow I shall post about the growing power of the EU. Pseu Koryo. P.S. My avatar is a flag I invented for myself. The four-legged figure on the top-left was something I found on a mosaic flooring which had rectangular bars, and the four-legged figure appeared in the middle, I liked it and I decided to put it in my flag. I give it the meaning of perfection (quadriple symmetry), simplicity (four rectangles facing away) and harmony (it makes me feel relaxed). The cross in the middle is symmetry once more. The black and red are for visibility and decoration. Black means night, because I like night. Red means fire, because I also like fire. (edited by beneficii on 12-28-06 04:28 AM) |

| Americans like to walk around accusing the rest of the world of being primitive third-world hellholes and bragging as if they were the only ones with freedoms. | |||

| China still has more production capacity.
Let's put it simple: What if there was one guy with a gatling gun against 5000 guys with knives? The guy with the gatling gun can shoot all he wants, he'll have to stop and reload, and by the time he does that, the guys with knives kill him. Same situation with China. Every USAF plane would need 10 missiles, and they only carry 4. The Chinese have 4 missiles on each plane, which is enough. China can replace any lost planes with a minimal amount of money in a short period of time. USAF would need to play millions of dollars for each plane, and take weeks to make. China can complete one J-10 in two days. The J-10 is a Chinese-designed plane that is just a bit below the ability of the F-22. |

| I think the system of the US senate is stupid and innefficient.
The Republicans have done many things to make Americans (and everyone else on this planet) angry at them. Enough Americans are disappointed at them because of the wars they have started, the money they have stupidly spent, and the non-honest deals with Halliburton and other contractors just for the sake of corporate friendship. For the good of the USA and the world, I hope the Democrats hold majority for a long time. I would hate to see another stupid contractor-happy war. |

| Obesity is no longer a problem in the world as physical fitness is no longer required to succeed unless you're an athlete. | |||

Originally posted by Thexare You're wrong for a variety of reasons: It's not a democracy, it's a Republic, don't forget that. Old men choose, everyone else supposedly chooses the old men, and everyone else doesn't. Religious ideals that get into laws is illegal and against your constitution. |

| Actually, China's going to brag and show-off an entire fleet of hydrogen-powered buses for the 2008 Olympic games. | |||

| I don't like the Republican party because it's conservative and benefits the rich while making the poor get poorer. The Democrats are more social-oriented than money-oriented, which makes them better. They support social programs, and accept new (good) ideas. | |||

| China has the money, the manpower, and the factories to mass-produce anything they like. They also have many, many universities and research centers to create new technologies. They are well on their way on becoming the world superpower. | |||

| You can't disagree, Republicans are corporate-oriented. Democrats are socially-oriented. However, Republicans have proven disastrous to the US economy, and to the world overall. There is some speculation the World Trade Center attacks were made by the CIA and not by muslim extremists. Also, the video that supposedly shows Osama Bin Laden admitting to ordering the attacks, doesn't show Bin Laden at all, but some other guy instead. The face is different, plus the guy is wearing a gold watch, which is illegal through muslim law. That makes it obvious. | |||

| Why do Americans feel the need to have weapons? You know, more stupid kids kill themselves playing with those than criminals who break into a house, seriously. | |||

| If people kept guns in safe lockers on which only the gunowner knows the combination and their stupid kid can't get access to, it would all be fine. But morons just leave the gun and/or the combo lying around, resulting in their kid finding it and shooting himself or someone else. |
