I wrote I can understand it. That is not the same as saying I support what they do. And that is the case for Palestinians who fight Israelis and for Israelis who fight Palestinians. It never ends. That is the huge problem. And on both sides people have reasons to continue fighting. They should stop the fighting. But as we all know that is a lot easier said then done.

In my experience it's not so bad in Thailand. But looking at the USA they definitely have more than enough woke idiots over there.

Really? Understanding is not the same as agreeing or saying I would do the same. I.e. if a person raped the daughter of person X, then I understand when person X retaliates and kills or tortures the rapist - even a long time after the crime happened. Should he do it? No. Is what he does legal? Probably not. Do I understand it? Yes. There are lots of reasons for Palestinians to hate Israel and Israelis. Many Palestinians lost friends and family who were killed by Israeli soldiers. Should they use that as a reason to kill Israelis? No. But we shouldn't pretend that they have no reasons.

I read that a lesbian woman was thrown out of her lesbian club because she didn't want to have any men in that club with a penis who self-identify as a woman. That's the stupid modern woke world. JK Rowling is a great example for a person with reasonable views who was/is cancelled by the crazy woke mob. We need more people who stand up against those idiots.

I came to Thailand when I was 30 and I had very little money. And I did what most people do at that time in their life: work. Working in Thailand helped me to integrate and make friends. While working we meet lots of people, and we make friends. That is, IMHO, a lot better than making friends drinking beer or playing pool or golf or whatever.

Too soon with enough money to spend at that time but not enough for the rest of the life, is difficult. I remember especially the 20-year-old son from a friend partying too much. It's fun at that time but if you are not careful you ruin the rest of your life.

Once a month one sexy girl is still a lot better than maybe once a year and old woman.

IMHO, about 30, after education and some work experience in a civilized country. That is young enough to get used to and prosper in Thailand. Younger people without work experience in highly efficient companies didn't learn enough. Older people might be able to get used to Thailand. But with 40 or 50 and maybe a family that is more difficult. I can't imagine it is a good idea to move to a foreign country far away from home in old age (retirement). Do you really want to learn a new culture and language with 60 or 70?

I see it like this: Should Hamas have done what they did on 7th October? No. Do I understand why they did it? Yes. Do I understand why Israel is now fighting in Gaza? Yes Do I understand if Palestinians won't forget what is happening now and fight another day? Yes. History repeats itself. One big problem is obviously that people on both sides can point at the other side and say: They killed my friends and family. And then they should not retaliate. But if they do it, I understand why they do it. And this logic works for many conflicts which go on for decades.
