chuckdyke Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 There were two Dutch pubs there, but the owners couldn't stand each other. We go back more than twenty years now. Yes I drove from Jakarta to Bandung and Yogyakarta which is the cultural centre. I live in Asia usually for three months of the year Covid stopped us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am afraid there is a ring of truth. In Indonesia I am called a Bule which is derogatory if you single out a person based on race in Europe. Over there it is completely acceptable. Nice people don't understand me wrong. The NATO joke comes from my Indonesian language teacher at the time. Youre damn right! Germany just transferes into a Politically correct Country! I see this transformation brutally! Got a high Depression because of this and am at the Point, where I say:" **** this, I am out! **** yourself Society!" Thinking about going into early retirement! I have really enaugh of this, since I always say what I think and I never had any problems with that but some idiots! But today? It hase gone out of Hands here! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The protocol was airstrikes need to be authorized by the United Nations. Just read an article about it. Without that authorization it is pointless to grant air support. Blue Helmet duty aids the prestige of ambitious politicians. But this is a hobby site we don't discuss politics. Making a wargame around such a scenario is pointless too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry but that part of the world doesn't take NATO very seriously. It had SEATO ... until everybody decided that it wasn't worth the bother/didn't do what it said on the tin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
