"Due to world events our suppliers have notified us of unprecedented demand for and an anticipated global shortage of gunpowder, and thus has increased our prices substantially," Vice President of Sales, Sporting Products Brett Nelson said in the letter. "We must therefore raise our pricing to help offset those increases."
Goddamn, can't even have a proper war on this planet if China isn't shipping energetic compounds.

I mean even as far back as the German nazi era, you had slav nazis like ROA, SS Galicien and others. Despite slavs being one of the races openly declared to be exterminated by the German leadership.

Almost for as long as there has been nazism, there has been nazis of any race, including those actively hated by the majority nazis.

The menu bears the fountain pen signature of former Chinese leader Mao Zedong, as well as six influential Chinese statesmen, including Premier Zhou Enlai, Huang Yanpei (Vice Premier of the State Council and Minister of Industry), and Zhu De (Vice Chairman of the Communist Party and the PRC, renowned as Mao's military advisor).

At the same auction was also sold a Joseph Stalin signed letter to his children, published in his daughter's autobiography sold for $22,134 (€20,500).

A stretch to call it stolen, I assume someone just asked Mao to sign it? If you were to have dinner with Taylor Swift and then asked her to sign your menu afterwards, did you actually steal anything from her?

More like profiting off Mao's fame, but I don't think he would have cared, if he were around and saw this.

When China gets more powerful expect to hear more news like this Chinese tea,silk and porcelain were signs of luxury even in Europe before century of humiliation like @Biscuits mentioned if Taylor Swift was from a poor small country her autographs wouldn't be fetching big sums either

Yep

Long-range voyages on sailing ships were considered the spaceships of their time.

Silk was the ultimate in luxury. Think today's designer luxury brands.

All I can say to this most recent allegation made by a western F.T. reporter is WOW!! The west have awakened the true SUPERPOWER of Asia, and it seems hellbent on copying the same tactics that Israel employed over the preceding decades against its perceived enemies both at home and abroad: VIOLENCE.

That some Indians feel and think that their country is already a SUPERPOWER is already leading them to act in such brazen fashion by words and deeds, I would shudder to think what's more when they actually become that superpower they've always imagined and assumed?

On yet another example of "DEMOCRACY AND DEFENDER OF VALUES" in action, American agents were caught recently in Spain when 2 American agents "working" at the American Embassy for "allegedly" trying to bribe Spanish Intelligence operatives and work for the U.S. interests. Funny, I was told and have read ad nauseum that DEMOCRACIES don't spy, eavesdrop, or go to war against fellow democracies, isn't that right Ms. Condescending liar Rice?

The Americans aren't satisfied with her vassals providing them information 99% of the time, they want their vassals to agree with everything they demand 100% of the time. What's even the point of being an "INDEPENDENT AND SOVEREIGN" country if that's going to be the arrangement and expectations from being in bed with America?
