    Does it seem like Canadian immigration policy is bringing in more Woke people to Canada than it does non-Woke people?

    That's what happens when countries with average IQs in the 70-85 range have to compete against a country with an average IQ of 105-108, unfortunately.

    So, have an African country with a coastline instead serve as Chinese occupation ground.

    Why not? They were willing to accept some Uyghurs, after all. The Sunni-Shia split should be less relevant for Turks since Turks are a secular people. Or at least their urban dwellers are.

    The Sunnis to whom Assad is trying to appeal are the more secular types, right? BTW, @Butch R. Mann, what about resettling large numbers of Hazaras in Turkey?

    Well, you might very well be right about the racism part, unfortunately. One would think that the Assad regime would want as many loyal supporters as they could in order to prevent another Sunni uprising in the future, though. As for rising water issues, this should be less of an issue right...

    So, that only leaves the West then, eh? Anyway, the reason that I brought up resettling them in Syria is because it would fit in very well with the Assad regime's apparent desire to alter Syria's religious demographics...

    What about having Europe finance this? The logistics of conducting a war in the Himalayas would be daunting, no? Why? Chinese debt traps?

    They can also get Iranian, Russian, and Chinese investment, no?

    The most likely locations for future wars?

    This is an off-topic question, but what are your thoughts about the idea of resettling Shi'a Afghan refugees (especially Hazaras) in Syria in large numbers if they will want to flee the Taliban?

    Interesting. Well, can't these ethnic groups reach some sort of deal with each other, possibly after a period of warfare between them beforehand?

    I thought that FARC has already made peace with the Colombian government? Kosovar-Albanian unification actually makes a lot of sense since Albania is already in NATO and is more likely than Kosovo to enter the EU. It could even be done after an Albanian entry into the EU so that it doesn't...

    There's also the de facto interstate conflict between Russia and Ukraine. And of course if one goes a bit farther back, then the ISIS Caliphate was a de facto state, even if it was unrecognized and brutal as Hell.
