Yes River my freind. You are right in this this statement about the USSR and the one about current Taiwan today.

But do you know whether the people of Crimea want to be Ukrainian or Russian? I don't for sure but I don't know that they did not get their way, do you?

I my days in Taiwan, quite sometime before you were there, the Taiwan natives did not want US there. They did not want the Chinese there. Did they get democratic elections? Naw
A vote today is a different deal. But in either case, not my fight. Nor is the Crimea.

Make google your friend.

I've lived and worked in Taiwan under 5 different presidents...democracy kicked in full steam in the 1980s...the KMT under Chiang Kai Shek was brutal and not anything like modern Taiwan...you read Taiwan in the AP press now...before it was always ROC or Chinese Taipei....they have elected 2 DPP pro independence presidents so far and 3 moderates...I know very well the history...they even changed the history books from when my wife was a child....Taiwan is a vibrant democracy...my family there is DPP Taiwanese..not KMT followers..they believe they have won the economic war with the mainland...and are the number one investor in China for business....China does not dictate Taiwans independence...as much as they'd like to. Tsai Ying Wen the current female president is DPP...she has been a great advocate for the country...Jimmy Carter actually screwed Taiwan by having it removed from the UN for Chinese satisfaction
 
Pretty sure his time there was before 1990.

What does that have to do with my response? He didn't know Taiwan was a democracy and I gave him a link that was readily available with a google search. Not knowing now days is being lazy as many answers are a click away.

Probably all true from your view. But the people of Taiwan had no say in the matters. They were swamped by the Chinese. Sort of like the folks in the Crimea. I do not know what they want.
Eisenhower decided for the Taiwanese, that was to help the Chinese swamp them no vote required. Then Carter threw them both (the Taiwanese and the Chinese immigrants) under the bus, no vote required.
I am rather pleased Trump is disinclined to decide for the folks that live in the Crimea. You nor I would have to do shit, but I hate to see the young grunts get spent in someone else's battle

Trump has nothing to do with this decision, nor Taiwan's...they have their own leaders and people...he has twitter

He was speaking of how Taiwan was. Not is.

Your link did nothing to refute what he said.
 
Trump threatened to send 25 million Mexicans to Japan: report

Donald Trump told Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe he could ship 25 million Mexicans to his country and make him lose an election -- one of several odd statements he made at last week's acrimonious G7 meet, The Wall Street Journal reported Friday.

The Group of Seven summit gathering of top industrialized democracies finished in disarray after the US president abruptly rejected its joint statement and bitterly attacked Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Behind the scenes, Trump's counterparts were dismayed by his verbal jabs on topics ranging from trade to terrorism and migration, the WSJ said, quoting European officials who were present.

At one point, he described migration as a big problem for Europe and said to Abe: "Shinzo, you don't have this problem, but I can send you 25 million Mexicans and you'll be out of office very soon," creating a sense of irritation in the room, according to an EU official.

The source added that when the topic turned to Iran and terrorism, Trump took aim at French President Emmanuel Macron, saying: "You must know about this, Emmanuel, because all the terrorists are in Paris."

I wonder how many Mexicans Abesan could take in and still have a job?

The are pretty tight over there. No Muslim terrorist attacks in Japan! Read how they do it!

:cool2: This isn't it!

"Of course, Japan achieved this by some super effective integration policy, through using the most advanced technologies and assigning billions of yen on the building of thousands of mosques and Islamic schools all over Japan, banning pork in all public places, introducing separate hours for boys and girls in swimming pools in all public schools, and Japanese male doctors do not dare touch their female patients,Muslim women get immense social aid each time they have a child, Shari´a courts were introduced in the judicial system of Japan, and the Koran is considered a Holy Book in Japan…"

" creating a sense of irritation in the room . . ." LOL, that's gotta be the understatement of the year.

He certainly knows how to make friends. Japan, Canada and France must love us. Oh, the irony, it's actually Russia, The Philippines and North Korea that are feeling better and better about us.

Poor Trump, nobody likes him but he keeps on getting richer and richer at the expense of regular Americans.
 
It is fine for the Japanese to keep immigrants out because the Japanese didn't steal their land from people like the Native Americans.
 
Oh yeah...send Aminu and Meyers. Aminu cuz of his name and Meyers because it would be awesome to see him walking around a city in Japan.
When I was in Korea about 30 years ago, people stared at me like I was a giraffe that escaped from the zoo. The only time they took their eyes off me was when two Americans, who were both taller than me, walked by.

Edit: The cute part was when I walked past a group of school children, who were approx. 8 or 9, and I heard "heh-roe" behind me. My wife and I burst out in laughter. So cute.

Did you forget about the Ainu?

Good call Lanny.
There are hardly any populations on earth that has never been fucked over somewhere in history. The Ainu are and example of just one more.
Going back through the history of my own family, it is not so far back, that we have a hell of a bottle neck in the male population that came through after the Battle of Culloden.
As near as we can tell, only one man survived the period. No doubt he was crafty enough to change his stripes, which no doubt had much to do with his decedents becoming Orangemen.

I take this to mean he was trans, or at least a cross-dresser...

, which no doubt had much to do with his decedents becoming Orangemen.

I take this to mean they became Trump supporters.

If you said you were from South America, I would not Bolivia.
