You've just spent 3 days demonising Islam. How can you say now, you don't give a damn? What a wally!

Kool aid? Do you even know what that is, or was? Historical nonsense? Catholic priests are still abusing kids. The mafia and 'Ndrangheta are still operating. I don't recall you ever asking for positives about Islam. And Catholics are still worshipping the devil in their cannibal cult.

Good riddance then.

Roman Catholicism. It's priests. The greatest bunch of child molesters in the history of mankind. It's nuns, cruelly persecuting Irish women. It's armies, raping and pillaging all across South America, Asia and Africa. It's cardinals, torturers and corrupt. Even now! The Mafia, mass murderers with God's blessing. Blackmailers, drug dealers, human traffickers, kidnappers, rapists, murderers. 'Ndrangheta. The Vatican can't clean itself of the low life in high places. You've got a bloody nerve calling the shots here. A religion that worships a tortured corpse, drinks his blood and eats his flesh. Ugh. Nauseating rubbish.

Yes, eco friendly backpedalling. I think what Bangkok needs is a congestion charge and Ken Livingstone to take over as mayor. Come to think of it, Boris needs a job. Cycle lanes, bus lanes, speed humps, the whole works. There's so much they could do to really screw things up. Bring it on, I say. And make Buakhao one way, reversing every 24 hours to make it fair.

And rail? Would seem to be the best choice. Containers fit nicely onto wagons. But oil? I don't see that happening unless they build an oil line across too. Cars? Easy by rail. Etc etc.

Yes, that would be the challenge, I agree. But strategically it has to make sense. Chennai, Kolkata, Yangon are all major ports in close proximity. Cutting out the piracy prone Malacca and Sunda straits would be a huge boon, plus those waters are too shallow for some of the largest container/tankers. Of course everyone will cry foul on China - when don't they - for tipping money into it if they do. But Sretta's looking for a consortium. This would help all maritime trading nations, including the oil states in the Middle East. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strait_of_Malacca

It's not a canal they're planning. Rail and road link. The ships won't sail across. They will unload and reload at each end.

So you can dish it but you can't take it. What a sad act.

I don't get it. If they're online websites, how come they've got 120 million in cash kicking around? You mean they regularly empty the mule accounts the hapless punters are paying into? Why? Why not go straight to coin or whatever? And buying such visible assets? Insane!

Not entirely on topic, (ex pats in Thailand), but I'd also suggest taking screenshots at regular intervals of any suspect calls. I had a call from a US number, which I still have a record of. It initially looked kosher of course (why not halal?), but I was passed to a WhatsApp number that was definitely a scammer. Although the number and conversation came up on my phone, as soon as I suggested they fxxx off, the number and all trace of the call disappeared. Not sure how they did that.

It's quite obviously in the public interest to release details of his illnesses, if they exist. It wouldn't mean anything of course. Just a bent quack's trumped up opinion. Will the truth ever out? A job for a talented hacker.

"The truths of Islam"! The fastest growing religion. "Muslims are the fastest-growing religious group in the world. The growth and regional migration of Muslims, combined with the ongoing impact of the Islamic State (also known as ISIS or ISIL) and other extremist groups that commit acts of violence in the name of Islam, have brought Muslims and the Islamic faith to the forefront of the political debate in many countries. Yet many facts about Muslims are not well known in some of these places, and most Americans – who live in a country with a relatively small Muslim population – have said they know little or nothing about Islam." https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2017/08/09/muslims-and-islam-key-findings-in-the-u-s-and-around-the-world/ I suggest you are very much in that group of people, even if you don't live in the USA.

Oh god, not another one.

Don't misquote me. You and your hate mob are just pests.

Sob, so lonely...

😴 This is one of those interminable threads which occur occasionally on AN. I suggest you study the charts and graphs in this link: https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2017/08/09/muslims-and-islam-key-findings-in-the-u-s-and-around-the-world/

"What can be asserted without proof can be dismissed without proof." What you write is garbage.

Fruit cake anyone?

So a Muslim man murders his girlfriend, but you've based your whole response in his being Muslim. If he'd been a Buddhist, which happens every day, or any other religion, would your response been so weighted? No. You just have a poisonous hatred for Islam, and are using this one incident to leverage it. Your arguments are thus totally invalidated.

Oh right. Christian Scientist Monitor! Dated 2015. Is this the best you could come up with after your Google search? Try this https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2017/08/09/muslims-and-islam-key-findings-in-the-u-s-and-around-the-world/

The topic was about a Thai man, not about Islam. And not about a "Muslim murderer". You're a disgrace.

Well go and start your own topic, "Why I hate Islam". Then all of your kind can mill around agreeing with each other, and not hijack other topics with your off topic poisonous rants.

For a moment there I thought you were talking about Judaism.

Actually, the allegation regarding converting to Islam was just hearsay. We'll never know for sure, but it's been pounced on by yourself, amongst others, as a chance to voice your disgust with, and hatred of, Islam. That's derailment. This thread has as usual produced reams of hate speech regarding Islam, to which you have contributed. I was pointing out many of the allegations apply to other religions too. That's all.
