"Hezbollah only exists to terrorise Israel and it is their sole purpose." This is a very curious take, what makes you think a group of hundreds of thousands of people, investing so much time, efforts and resources, exposing themselves and their loved ones to fatal risks just to terrorise Israel?

That would be unreasonable, why would Israel compromise if they don't have any pressure whatsoever, international or internal. Especially with the current right wing dominance of politics in Israel and the foolish attempts at slow annexation of the West Bank.

The Palestinian's interests is into keeping and nurturing a strong resistance until there is a real support from the USA for a reasonable peace process.

I wouldn’t go as far as comparing Turkey to Russia. The recent Turkish elections have shown that the ruling Party in Turkey can lose key strongholds like Istanbul, this never happens in Russia. In Egypt, most contenders to the presidency are in prison now. Current president Al Sissi (a bloody dictator won by 97%) Erdogan om the other hand won by 53%. Putin by 73% while some major opposition leaders barred from running.

Turkey is often unfairly criticised by western media, which obviously prefers military dictators in power.

Last time I checked Turkey is still democracy. A better example would be Egypt or KSA or UAE.

Except maybe the smoking part, which is as you might know bad for health.

Greece is doing the same with the Russian s300. [1] I think the problem with Turkey is around Syrian involvement, and the Mediterranean gaz exploration.

There is genuine interest for perpetuating authoritarianism and more importantly corruption for their neighbours.

Your last comment about "the President thinks that high rates are part of a Jewish-led conspiracy to bankrupt Turkey" would benefit greatly from a reference or a quote, otherwise it is just as a good as propaganda. The apparent and most obvious reason for a president to not increase interests rates and to not decrease spending is the fear of recession. This is a controversial move but it has some interesting precedents: check the case of Malaysia after the Asian financial crisis of 1997.

I strongly doubt that the intelligence community have any moral framework at all.

I wouldn't really go as far as qualifying him as a successful politician for the simple reason that it not really challenging for dictators to consolidate power and build alliances using unethical means, like money and intimidation and in this case murder. For MBS his father is already the monarch of one of the wealthiest nations on earth, which I'm pretty sure helps a lot.

Israel did worst than just spying on the US government https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Liberty_incident. Now the official investigation concluded that this was a result of an unfortunate mistake, but survivors and others maintain that the ship was deliberately targeted.

The Liberal democracy value is highly debatable as shown by the treatment of the Arab spring as well as the strategic alliance with K.S.A.

I see a lot of corruption opportunities that would make this inefficient if not dangerous in most 3rd world countries. I think They should start by rethinking their governance, moral values first.

Oh! They have but not to their own people.

Pretty cool!

This is more like the first two years of mathematics course in the French Preparatory Classes for Great engineering schools Program.

That's a nice course you got there. Thanks for sharing!

I have been learning French from the very beginning of my life, because my parents and everyone else considered that success in our country can only be achieved if you are fluent in it. Now I can hold a descent French conversion and I even did my engineering education in that language, but I never managed to be fully fluent in it. French is an interesting language, and I really enjoyed the countless Fantasy and sci-fi books I read, But I think I should have invested my time in learning English instead.

Hello, everyone!

I recently started this journey of learning robotics. For now it is only motivated by fulfilling a childhood dream, but I hope it will evolve into something bigger. Now, I decided to document it so I will force myself into commitment. I know it will be hard and long and I will want to quit, but the idea of other people following my progress, helping with their experiences, providing much appreciated critics and feedbacks will help me go further and push myself even more.

PS1: I'm also looking for learning materials, maybe good courses, books or articles.

PS2: please forgive my modest english, it is not my native or second language.

If you study engineering. You will probably end up with an engineering degree (something like a doctorate for doctors) which makes completely legit to call yourself an engineer.

You know how to fix the problem more effectively? try to find the root cause and fix it. It's simple and it works.

What? Seriously man! let me get it right. You think that people shouldn't be allowed to choose the Ideologies of their home country. That they shouldn't strive for their freedom and fight corruption and poverty. And you think that military coups and secular leadership persecution is the way to go for non western countries?
