Yes! Thai's protecting their own. They never like competition with anything!

And I thought it was only Israeli's who committed crimes in Pai??!!

No basic alarm button to ring by the staff and Lotus's security guards, nowhere to be seen?!!

No Israeli's involved???!!!!!

But daren't come out of the closet if they're in Muslim countries!!

Not more, or less than any other group of tourists in their early twenties!!

Any particular reason why there shouldn't be?! Have you counted how many Christians are there? If not, why not? Wouldn't it also be interesting, or is it just Jews you are fascinated with?

And they weren't deported?? Why not??

You're not confused!! That sentence makes no sense!!!

Can you provide a smidgen of proof for your totally incorrect statement?

And as I said, you are believing figures put out by a terrorist organisation. Do you KNOW that 70% were women & children? Did you ever question why these people were not taking shelter in the extensive tunnels that Hamas built, just to protect themselves? When rockets are fired at Israel, sirens go off, alerting people to immediately to go into shelters or 'safe rooms', hence minimising casualties. Wonder why Hamas didn't think of this basic, fundamental plan for Gaza? Is it because they couldn't care less about Gazan civilians - only themselves? That would surely increase the % of civilian deaths.

What figures? The figures put out by the terrorist organisation, Hamas - not differentiating between terrorists & civilians?

And how do you know 'he' was Israeli? Did he speak Hebrew to you & you understood immediately that it was Hebrew???? Your example & generalities are farcical!!!

And it's NOT the Israelis. They have been killing terrorists, whereas Hamas were delighted to kill civilians in most barbarous ways. It's obvious in ANY war that civilians get killed. How many civilians were killed in Dresden under Allied bombing? How many civilians were killed when H-bombs were dropped on Japan? Oh, you don't care to mention those because it wasn't Israelis doing the killing.

And that's exactly why these guys don't go to those places!!
