It's not too late to remove cricket from LA28 now that we could (hopefully follow "protocol") ban India and Pakistan from competing. This conflict/war should go for a couple of years I reckon.

Yes it has. In India alone, millions were killed by medieval rulers for the sin of idol worship.

Yes, IOC should totally ban India for hitting terrorist camps.

India is more powerfull  and will win like usual ...but Pakistan can do much damages and 200 millions of muslims living in india will think about revenge 

 

of course USA support India not because they love them but to face China

I don't necessarily mean in the last 50 years or so, but from early history all the way to right now. Millions upon millions killed in the name of Islam, Christianity or whatever, and now it's not much different: there's conflict and before people can breath, religion is thrown into the mix as one of the reasons to make things worse.

 

I'm realistic enough to know the world is never going to see full peace, but as long as any kind of religion is around, that chance is even tinier.

    • The Stoevi sisters are just amazing. It's a shame their accomplishments will always be in the shadows here, just because they are in a sport without much coverage, tradition, interest.    This is their 7th European title (5 ECH + 2 European Games) which is just one shy of Carolina Marin's all time record of 8th titles in a specific event. Plus it was their 6th consecutive final with only one loss in 2024 in this streak. 
    • I know that the PP was definitely pro-European and anti-Russian- they had a prime minister at the very beginning of the war in 2022. Unfortunately, GERB was always corrupt, although it remained in the EPP on EU Parlament all- time. The PP was probably the best option, but unfortunately, they seem to have lost a lot of public support recently.
    • Italy- Slovakia 6-4   An unnecessary black out at the some end, but we achieved our minimum goal – a secure stay at this division after 2 matches. After a 1-day break, we will play against France and Hungary for promotion. I still think Hungary are the favorites, but we can compete with them.
    • GERB actually aren't pro-Russian. They have always been pro-EU and Europe oriented and joining Shengen and the Eurozone happened in part because of them, though with a huge delay. They however have very well used the pro-EU stance to hide the rampant stealing of public funds and corruption surrounding their 10+ year ruling, which is the main reason people protested against them so many times. A bit Orban-esq they have also pretty much filled all institutions with their people, so it's hard to clean their mess.   Radev on the other hand has always been a pro-Russian proxy, though unlike Orban he is much more calculated with his words and actions. He is taking the "diplomatic" and "national" approach, though if you listen to his comments they are clearly favouring Russia.    Even though this guy was President for many years, that position is without much power here, so he hasn't had the chance to do much trouble. But he did manage to plant his seeds in many people's heads, as he always blamed whichever party was ruling for all the troubles in the country and many believe he is our new "saviour".    Compared to Hungary, the situation here is much more complex, as there isn't anyone as popular are Magyar and there are several strong parties, which always get practically the same number of votes.   Radev is surely winning, though the hopes are for the sane people to do damage control. But the truth is there aren't any many good choices, so it's going to be a lose-lose situation.    I don't expect a coalition to be formed, but it will depend on the number of parties passing the 4% threshold. So yeah, we are once again hitting the never-ending elections cycle, which the country has spun into since 2021.     
    • Awesome story > someone who is destroying cycling      
    • Memes starting everywhere    Oh ! Please Mr. the vicepresident please come to visit our country before our elections as well !
