    State has. They will do just as they do in Croatia, use taxpayer money to prop up leftist agitprop.

    Chinese wanted to prevent Western-friendly country on their border, and succeeded. How said country turned out is irrelevant to them.

    So why is North Korea still, well, North Korea? You do know that UN forces had managed to reach Korean-Chinese border, right?

    The data I cited is specifically for the Western Front. No Soviet conscripts being butchered there. This is what Dupuy wrote: "On a man for man basis, German ground soldiers consistently inflicted casualties at about a 50 percent higher rate than they incurred from the opposing British and...

    First, wars are not won on kill-loss ratios, they are won on achieving objectives. United States had lost the Vietnam War and in Afghanistan despite this K/D advantage. Second, you are wrong. While I cannot claim to know data for all of these wars, German troops in World War II consistently...

    Try 1:1 against a competent first-world military. Frankly, I see Russian "successes" in Ukraine as more impressive than what US achieved in Iraq.

    As a logistical feat it was... impressive, though not overly so, seeing how most US forces were based in Saudi Arabia. As a strictly combat feat... do remember we are talking about Iraq here. Croatian army as it was in 1995 would have likely easily beaten it. And again, we are talking about...

    Depends on whether you kill them. If it is just "kick out", then no, it isn't genocide.

    No, because neither includes destruction. But e.g. Incan civilization got destroyed despite Spaniards not killing many of them directly.

    You don't need to kill people to destroy them, though.

    You kidding? Those two countries are the worst in Europe. France had been helping destroy Europe since 16th century or so, and Germany is so far to the left that Karl Marx would consider them extremists. And today's Germans don't obey their government, they obey the Big Bad Brother.

    In theory. In reality, public voting exists to rubberstamp the candidates and policies which the elites put forward, and to silence the dissent by "but, but, it was YOUR CHOISEAH".

    Sorry, but that is just bullshit. People have gotten access to better health care and more resources, but that did not make them more healthy or more happy. Nor did it give them more freedom - you had more freedom in Habsburg Monarchy to do, well, anything, than you do in today's European Union...

    Except liberty also allows socialists to keep destroying the foundations of the society. If you give socialists the liberty to destroy tradition, you have already lost. The West was lost the moment World War I allowed the socialists to destroy European monarchies. Everything since then had been...
