Re: 30-Dec-16 World View -- Russia and Turkey announce a new ceasefire in Syria / Damascus Syria is without water

Guest (Jack) said … “As part of my profession - I build statistical models. They often end up being incorrect and I adjust my model.” Just curious but not overly so.... How are your statistical models useful if often incorrect – unless they are not meant to actually be applied to anything of value o...

Re: 30-Dec-16 World View -- Russia and Turkey announce a new ceasefire in Syria / Damascus Syria is without water

John, you attempted to reconcile and/or explain a unrealized outcome thus .. “What I overlooked was how much one person (…….) could keep the war going on for years through single-minded psychopathic genocide, with the help of outsiders (…….).” Well then, are not all of Generational Dynamics “predict...

Re: 22-Dec-15 World View -- Russia's Syria airstrikes kill many innocent civilians, but otherwise appear futile

There are no “innocent” Sunnis weather they are women and children or not. Unlike Iranian Shiites, the Sunni dream of an Islamic state has never come true. The popular Islamist ideology calling for the establishment of a modern-day caliphate is what has empowered Salafi jihadi groups such as IS. The...

Re: 26-Nov-15 World View -- Russia and Turkey move closer to the brink of war

Dear Guest …. “Back Turkey. Send in more NATO fighter planes and special forces (Turkey has more than enough ground troops.) Putin knew messing with Turkey was playing with fire. Turks aren't like the Swedes. Turks will hit back.” The rift between Turkey and Russia goes back several hundred years as...

Re: 23-Sep-15 World View -- Europe's refugee crisis revives Ottoman Empire fault lines

"Please cite what riots on streets and other violent crimes have the Jews portrayed?" ..... THE RED TERROR IN RUSSIA FOR ONE! Every bit as nasty. That 1917 Russian revolution, founded and orchestrated by Jews, ranks right up there. Jewish DNA is not exempt .... and there are many other examples as w...

Re: 20-Jun-15 World View -- The Gathering Storm: The accelerating surge in refugees, slaves and terrorists

“According to Free the Slaves…….. India has the largest number of people in slavery: 14 million.” AND THEN THIS..“…..it's estimated that there are 60 million slaves in the US today.” HUH? Apparently, one definition of slavery is “unhappy with your job” and that brings us to 60 Million or more so the...

Re: 5-Mar-15 World View -- Turkey and Armenia schedule conflicting WW I centennial commemorations

“But to put things in perspective, the United States has a total inventory of 4,650 nuclear weapons, including nearly 2,000 actively deployed warheads. Russia has roughly the equivalent and is working with the United States to reduce stockpiles. In contrast, China possesses an estimated 300 nuclear ...

Re: 9-Dec-14 World View -- State of Palestine joins the ICC

Overall, I agree that there is “no solution.” However, over time, there is a solution for each and every individual country. Once the oil becomes less and less important many ME countries will agree on a solution to end fighting since they will need to somewhat unite to survive like the EU had to do...
