Lorenzo Lamas is available.  He's got star power, martial arts moves, and if you mess with him he won't rest until he gets payback. 
The purpose of studying economics is not to acquire a set of ready-made answers to economic questions, but to learn how to avoid being deceived by economists.

The Chinese already have a system in place to pick who he'll reincarnate as. :hmm: If the Indians really want to fuck with the Chinese they'll sponsor a counter-Dalai Lama on their side of the border.

I propose we borrow from the Catholic tradition, and dub such a person the "antiDalai Lama".  :sleep:

Only if it ends with a third one, to terminate the controversy.

This is not the '90s anymore, unfortunately. He has been doing soap operas and real TV shows. :(

PS: I was going to suggest Seagal, given his creed and earlier deeds but given his current political orientation and obesity,  I'm afraid this is impossible as well.

What's the point of modern armies engaging in melee?

The two sides had an agreement not to use firearms.

We should really encourage more countries to do that.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

Did they agree to leave the area if they lost the brawl?
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

Nope :contract:

And it was more than a brawl.  A lot more.  People died.

So, like I said, there's no point.
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

This is the most irrational conflict zone in the world. The stupidity of humans really has no limit.
Aren't the Himalayas the source for all of Indian subcontinent's and Southern China's water? Climate change is coming and so are the water wars.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.
