In Dubai, the fastest police, and now will still be on the most expensive cars. Although the crime rate there is low. They are all very well thought out and there is a posh police car park. I myself would go to the police to fuck up on such a typewriter Grin

The crime rate is quite low (despite 80% of the population being expat, mostly from third world nations such as India, Bangladesh and Pakistan) is due to the fact that the rule of law is quite strong. You will get severe punishment for violent offenses, and no amount of money power or connections will save you.
Do in Dubai pretty low crime rate, but as soon as these people leave the confines of the United Arab Emirates they are on the path of crime. Liberal laws of Europe only contributes to this behavior.

It is not very surprising. In countries where the punishment is very tough, the crime rate will be the lowest. On the other hand, the crime rate is high in countries such as Sweden, where the punishment for violent offenses is lax.

Salafi sect have no ethnic belonging.

I disagree with that statement. Look at the Salafis in Russia. A few are converted Slavs and another small fraction is from the Volga Muslim groups such as Bashkirs and Tatars. But the vast majority of them are either from Central Asia, or from the North Caucasus.

I personally have not heard any reports about the corruption McCain. I heard that he is not all right with the psyche, but it may be just a rumor. He is a war veteran, was in captivity and only one that I have is trust and respect. What can be said about Trump. I do not respect him.

McCain is a war veteran. He was savagely tortured while being held as a POW in Vietnam. But these are the only good points I have got for him. As a politician, he is as bad as Hillary Clinton and Elizabeth Warren. He is another shameless puppet of the oligarchs.

The people that were imprisoned with him tell a different tale.  McCain immediately began talking to get better treatment than the other prisoners.  He was made a trustee by the guards and had an easy time is what I read from their accounts..

Don't know much about it. When he ran against Barack Obama during the 2008 United States Presidential Elections, the media was full of sob-stories detailing the torture which he underwent at the hands of the Viet Cong. If what you had posted is true, then I have to admit that I will be very disappointed.

The F-35 is one of the biggest defense scandals in the History of the United States. The American tax payers spent more than $1.5 trillion on this project, and still all they are getting is an aircraft which is far inferior to the Su-35 and the Sukhoi PAK FA.

It is the ultra-liberal leftist San Francisco. What do you expect from a city, where you are supposed to never own a gun and wait and watch while some illegal alien is raping your wife and murdering your kid. That said, these kids should have never posted such pics on their FB account.

It seems to me that these idiots prefer the ISIS to Bashar al Assad. They made the same mistake in Libya and Iraq. In both the nations, they toppled the secular rulers, and very shortly they were replaced by hard-line Islamist governments.

As the proverb goes, come and take it

Geography starts playing a role when all other roles have been played off and it becomes impossible to defend some area militarily. But GB proved that it can defend it. If they couldn't they would likely try to save the face by pretending that the Falklands are too far from the motherland and they are not worth a penny. Right now it is Argentina who is in a position like this. Really, what prevents them from taking these wretched islands with force if they are so close while Britain is so far?

It seems to me that at this point of time Argentina is not that interested in forcibly asserting its sovereignty over the Falkland Islands. The Argentine economy is not doing that great. But there is another important factor as well. The military strength of the UK is going down with every passing year. The Argentines may be waiting for the UK to become really weak, before they could wage a war against them.

I'm sure, world war 3 will soon take happen, may not be up to 100 years again. all signs are already clear, the Middle East war that never finished will extend, north korea will soon make a hot area (japan south korea, and USA.

You never know when the next world war will start. There is a chance that there will be no world war 3, at least for the next 1000 years. But then, there is a chance of a WW3 staring tomorrow, from some sudden provocation. You never know.

I hate dirty towel heads. I hate them so much sometimes when I go to the bathroom I not only bring a Koran with me but I use its pages to wipe my ass with.

I wish someone would just nuke all the arab countries so we can rid this world of the awful filth that the arabs are.

There is no point in nuking the Arab nations, as the Muslims have spread all around the world (perhaps with the exception of certain nations such as Japan, South Korea, Belarus, Bhutan, Laos, North Korea.etc). Western nations will be Muslim majority by 2050 or so.

Unless they use nukes first, including if they do so by giving the nukes to one of their hundreds of terrorists groups which do their bidding.

In such a case, bye bye Tehran.

Among the Muslim majority nations, I have a feeling that Saudi Arabia and Pakistan are much more likely to use nuclear weapons when compared to Iran. Right now, all the attention is focused on Iran and North Korea, which I think is a wrong move.

I don't think that the United Kingdom will go to war with Spain, just over a tiny piece of rock. We are well past that stage, and Theresa May is a well experienced politician aware of the consequences of a physical war. If Kim Jong Un was in the place of Theresa, there was a chance though...

In fact, that's what we are led to believe

But if we are to cut all the crap, Kim Jong Un hasn't yet started any war during his reign to give any legitimacy to such claims. It is a war-mongering rhetoric on his side mostly, but, as the proverb goes, the barking dog does not bite. On the other hand, this queen (I refer to Elizabeth II) already has blood on her hands. GB has participated in a war over the Falkland Islands a few decades ago, so, as another proverb has it, the pot shouldn't call the kettle black

Geographically, neither Falklands nor Gibraltar should be a part of the Great Britain. Falklands should be returned to Argentina, and the Brits should evacuate the 2,000 or so colonizers there. Similarly, Gibraltar should be placed in a joint administration, or merged with Spain.

*edit: Kyrgyztan, not Uzbekistan. My bad, but not big difference

Doesn't make a difference at all. The terrorist was from the city of Osh in Kyrgyzstan, and the majority of the population there is ethnic Uzbek. In 2010, there were riots between the Uzbeks and the Kyrgyzs, and a lot of the former ended up in Russia as refugees.

I do not trust such studies. I think that man needs any food is the main thing that it was diverse. I certainly have nothing against meat, but I don't like the situation when for food of animal slaughter. I think it's not worthy of a human being.

The only way to source edible meat is through animal slaughter. There is no other method to produce meat. Well, you can eat meat from the corpse of some animal which has died of disease, but I would strongly advice against doing so.

Solar panels require a lot of work, only work where there is a lot of Sunny days. No I think solar panels is intermediate between the technologies that can really solve the problem of departure from hydrocarbon dependence.

Since solar panels only work during the day, and the transmission losses are great, it is not really a substitute for the thermal energy. Solar energy needs storage in the form of batteries, which is expensive and makes the whole concept unaffordable.

Most Chechen's are islamic extremist and  Ramzan Kadyrov is no saint either, His human rights abuse sometimes surpasses Putin himself, eventhough am strongly anti gay, Rounding up and executing gay people is not good thing to do.

The practice of rounding up and executing gays are not confined to the Republic of Chechenya. Even in the middle eastern nations such as Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, the same practice is followed, although they never face the same amount of criticism which Kadyrov face.

Most decisions are not dictated by religion, It doesn't take religion to tell someone that murder and stealing is wrong. If you have a conscience and you are in the right frame of mind no one needs to tell you that.

For the ultra-religious, most of their decisions are dictated by their religion. This is applicable to a small part of the 2 billion Christians living in this world, and to the vast majority of the 1.5 billion Muslims who are spread out across the globe.

Women may not touch cucumbers or bananas! They look like the male penis!

Muslim penis is more like a matchstick or a tooth-pick. You can't even compare them to cucumbers and bananas. Also, what about groundnuts and raisins? They might remember these women of their husbands' testes.

The mankind will exterminate itself as a result of arrogance and stupidity.

+1. I wouldn't be surprised if a war starts for something very little and everyone would throw everything until nothing remains. Humans...

Like the WW1? That one was started by a single person (Gavrilo Princip, who assassinated Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria). Something similar can trigger the next world war, although I wouldn't bet on it.
