Jammu&Kashmir for the past 75 years has been under the illegal hold of the state of India. The claim made by the Indian state that Kashmir is an integral part of India is completly false and in clear disregard of multiple UNSC resolutions.

Time for me to do one of these again. I'm against the death penalty for murder and have flipped on this since the last time I did the death penalty. I'm doing this unrated because I doubt my debating abilities. RM is not allowed to accept. That guy is very confusing.

As China rises on the global stage, worries grow that the Asian autocracy will assert itself militarily by forcefully 'unifying' Taiwan with the mainland. For decades, the United States has maintained a policy of support for Taiwan, a policy which may one day bring us into direct conflict with China. The purpose of this debate is to investigate just how far US support for Taiwan's independence should go.

My position is that radical left-wing politics is both only a recent, modern phenomena and its current iteration in the United States is not as harmful as radical left-wing movements of the 20th century; and, more importantly, it is less dangerous, long-term, than religious fundamentalism is.
