China’s military in a statement late on Monday accused India of “outrageously firing warning shots” in a new confrontation on September 7 on the south bank of Pangong Lake in the Chushul sector, which has seen escalating tensions for the past week.

While the Indian Army was yet to confirm the events as of Monday night, China’s military described Monday’s confrontation as “a serious military provocation”.

Ummm, it’s not the Chinese press telling us about the backfire of One Child.

Israeli women have served in frontline combat positions (intended combat positions, as opposed to the post-’48 ‘ended up in combat anyway’) since before 2002. You may need to update your knowledge there.

Just check all the menus of restaurants in India. All serve meat. All Indian restaurants here in the US, UK, elsewhere serve meat. In India, 80-85% of the population eats meat.

The next thing you know the Chicoms will be accusing the Injuns of attacking and blowing up a radio station.

Well, I was in India but it was some years ago. Lol. I guess they now think that it's okey-dokey to kill animals to eat. It DIDN'T used to be as the Hindus HAD this tremendous respect for all life.
I guess they've changed. No doubt they have McDonald's as well.

So much for their belief of ahimsa. Animals weren't killed for food...thus the vegetarians.
I have to admit the juicy hamburger is hard to resist...bu then I'm a meat eater.

Dill pickles, hold the mayo!

Iraeli women fight mano-a-mano against male enemy soldiers? My, I AM impressed. They must be some very large, husky, strong women there.
Maybe they are descendants of AMAZONS.
