  1. Objection! I have no idea what you're talking about. The guy quoting it suggests it implies killing all Jews. My link gives a bit of background and context. I don't intend to give it a rest, but I'm happy to leave this thread. It's going nowhere. The Israelis are still committing atrocities in Gaza as we speak. The Final Solution is well under way.
  2. Is that it? Just a dismissal? No criminal charges? Embezzlement? Wire fraud? Malfeasance in office (whatever that means)? No 10,000 THB fine? 4 months jail suspended?
  3. Outrageously warped. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/From_the_river_to_the_sea
  4. So the tally is, in answer to "Is the killing of 15,000 civilians and 6,000 children justifiable?" 1 confused, 1 thanks, 2 highly amusing. A very bizarre forum indeed!
  5. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_Security_Council_veto_power#:~:text=As of May 2022%2C Russia,cast in the Security Council. Mostly the US vetoing any condemnation of Israel. And here's the result. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_Nations_resolutions_concerning_Israel There are any amount of analyses of the USA's insane love affair with Israel. See Hitchens and Chomsky. They're very revealing. And you see it all the time here, on this forum, in the press. Israel, can do no wrong. Everybody else, can do no right. It's utterly childish, bigoted, stupid, ignorant. The whole Arab world is just a collection of terrorists trying to destroy the world... Etc etc etc
  6. I don't think he bothered to read that far. Just give him the "I can't believe you didn't know" gaslighting treatment he's so fond of. People use it repeatedly as a means of calling into question other people's intelligence. A stock tactic on any forum.
  7. Now you're being a pita. You failed to mention he was elected in the absence of any other candidate, and that it was for a 2 day forum. I know Iran's record on women's rights. You're not talking to 3 year olds. But I don't see the relevance of your waving this flag about it. Yes, the irony is stark. So is this part of your critique of the UN , or what? My point was the UN is unable to bring any pressure to bear on Israel to halt it's indiscriminate bombing of civilians. Naturally, you can argue about whether it's indiscriminate or just unfortunate. Either way, 1000s of innocent people are being herded into a ghetto and slaughtered. Warsaw Mk II. The Israelis should recall that. But Israel is in the hands of fanatics, just like Iran. Cue the confused and sad emojis. Are people hiring these obnoxious lurkers?
  8. You've edited his comment to totally alter it's meaning. I can't believe you didn't know this was against forum rules etc etc etc.
  9. Yes, I found the Reuters article, and read it, which you apparently haven't. He was elected in the absence of any other candidates. And for a 2 day forum. So what's your point?
  10. It was a 2 day meeting. No other candidate was put forward. Then all the western do nothings started whingeing. https://www.reuters.com/world/irans-appointment-chair-un-rights-meeting-draws-condemnation-2023-11-02/
  11. Conflating antisemitism with criticism of Israel. Incredible.
  12. They are by the UN. Same in Ukraine. The double standards are mind boggling.
  13. As providing cause for retaliation. Don't dodge the issue. You know what I'm talking about. Israeli settlers taking over Palestinian held land. Why do you think Hamas attacked Israel? Certainly one of the reasons. Alongside many others. People no longer seem able to tell right from wrong. Shelling hospitals? Cutting off water and power supplies? 6000 children killed. Is this justifiable?
  14. You can't use "troll" in that context, ie stating an opinion you don't agree with. I can equally dismiss all your comments as invalid. You're gaslighting.
  15. Who mentioned the Gaza strip? It's hardly the chosen spot for Israeli settlers, is it?
  16. I was referring to the Israeli settlers, not Hamas.
  17. Just as they did regarding Ukraine and all the other gross violations of humanitarian behaviour. The UN is a broken record. It achieves absolutely nothing. It's "security" council is anything but. A licence for the big boys to do whatever they want, wherever they want, whenever they want, while it mouths platitudes and holds it's hands up in mock horror.
  18. No. Israel started it years ago. Hamas finally snapped. Somebody moves in on your backyard and builds a house and kicks you out, what are you going to do? As an American, you'd shoot them dead, right? Right. Enough already.
  19. More and more barricades being thrown up to delay, maybe even prevent, any action on a complete charter rewrite.
  20. Interesting, as the person in charge of the soft power nonsense is none other than Sheeitta's chief rival, Paetongtarn "Ung Ing I love bling" Shinawat, head Nepobabe and PM in waiting.
  21. I was referring to Wise. I've never tried transferring from a THB account in a Thai bank to a bank outside Thailand.
