They probably see themselves as Russians first, and Muslims, second. The Chechens are probably tired of using their own land as a battleground over and over again. AND, the Chechens respect strength. Kadyrov may be a ruthless, megalomaniac warlord, but he’s probably the exact sort of leader the Chechens need. And…

You give Putin way too much credit. And you overcomplicate things. Russia is helping Syria for one thing, and one thing alone: to prevent regime change and the installation of a pro-western leader who would then approve and open up Syria to the most crucial part of the proposed Qatar-to-Turkey gas pipeline.

Nah. The Kurds, Sunnis and Iran-allied Shiites will carve it up. Assad’s not an imperialist and the Sunni provinces won’t ever quit the independent tribalist thing they have going on right now. .

Yeah that’s how I feel. I’m glad I’m still not the only one.

No. Not singing any song. Simply stating facts. The numbers don't lie.

I just can’t watch indycar, I just can’t. I know it’s irrational but I’m still bitter about the split and I hate the cars.

This car is so sexy I want to text it awkwardly for a few days before driving around with it for like 30 minutes deciding on where to eat and then slowly lose communication with it after dinner until I see it again a few months later when it’s somehow engaged

The F-150 program was well underway when this test mode was introduced by IIHS (2012). We addressed the small overlap front crash test in the 2015 F-150 SuperCrew - which accounts for 83 percent of 2015 F-150 retail sales so far - and are adding countermeasures in the SuperCab and Regular Cab in the 2016 model year.
