  1. Having served 30 years myself and fought in many conflicts around the world, the comment by Mr Radford is totally wrong. The wars and conflicts since the Second World War have been against different enemies to peace and hepled stabilise regions that otherwise would have fallen into chaos, in the process making the lives of millions safer and giving them a decent future.

    Syria presents a threat to the world and Mr Radford should bear in mind the reasons behind the decision to bomb them. If he is happy to accept terrorism in mainland Britain, then I suggest himself and his medal throwing colleagues depart for another country.

    you've got it the wrong way around........the wars waged by the west against iraq & libya brought absolute chaos to otherwise stable countries.

  2. kannot, while your intentions are good, this is thailand & they do things different here.

    I know its frustrating for you to see these potholes, but try to relax and ignore them.

    someone will cause trouble for you soon with the way you're acting........you are interfering.

  3. Assad is hardly an angel. He's a brutal dictator who rose to power through might, not (valid) elections, and has murdered his own people who were against him:

    Use of chemical weapons in the Syrian Civil War has been confirmed by the United Nations. The deadliest attacks were the Ghouta attack in the suburbs of Damascus in August 2013 and the Khan al-Asal attack in the suburbs of Aleppo in March 2013. Several other attacks have been alleged, reported and/or investigated.

    A U.N. fact-finding mission and a UNHRC Commission of Inquiry have simultaneously investigated the attacks. The U.N. mission found likely use of the nerve agent Sarin in the case of Khan Al-Asal (19 March 2013), Saraqib (29 April 2013), Ghouta (21 August 2013), Jobar (24 August 2013) and Ashrafiyat Sahnaya (25 August 2013). The UNHRC commission later confirmed the use of Sarin in the Khan al-Asal, Saraqib and Ghouta attacks, but did not mention the Jobar and the Ashrafiyat Sahnaya attacks.

    The UNHRC commission also found that the Sarin used in the Khan al-Asal attack bore "the same unique hallmarks" as the Sarin used in the Ghouta attack and indicated that the perpetrators likely had access to chemicals from the Syrian Army's stockpile.

    Not the kind of man who should be running a country.

    the same was said about gaddafi & saddam......and look where overthrowing them got the west

  4. 2 monkeys sitting on a pile of dynamite, playing with matches and none of them willing to "lose face".

    This is going to be good. Stay tuned !

    Cheers.

    Face is an Asian thing. Not really a part of Western culture. "Losing Face" is a part of many problems here in Asia. Unfortunately.

    except on the political stage.......then losing or saving face becomes very important to western politicians
