Going as far as intentionally offing foreign leaders is crossing a line that is rarely crossed.

Think of the consequences going forward.

The Ayatollah of Iran is a major religious figure for ALL Shia Muslims in the world, and there are many Shia Muslims in other countries than Iran.

Everyone in the Trump family for generations to come is going to need to have really good security.

American culture isn't patient and always looking for the quick fix. Older cultures such as in Iran are very patient.

Thanks for that very perceptive observation.

Here was me for so long just seeing you as a Hasbara shill with a dangerously high post-count.

My sincere congratulations, if you really are starting to notice that there two sides to this terrible problem.

A horrible incident indeed, but I'm sorry, a rock is a deadly weapon when thrown at a person. vehicle, etc. How can that logically be denied?!? So this unfortunate boy was in no way an INNOCENT victim. When a thrown rock (deadly weapon) kills or causes great bodily harm to a target, does the age of the rock thrower matter? If so, what if it was a gun or bomb?

Of course I well understand why Palestinians want to resist and protest Israelis, but sorry, if they use deadly weapons to do their protest, what should they expect in return?

I'll go further. I have zero doubt that many people obsessively supporting demonization of Israel and constantly questioning its right to exist, would not be bothered in the slightest if this boy's rock killed a target. They would consider him a hero.

Also the act of throwing 'something' ... is it a rock or a grenade ?

Sorry, shoot first, or you may not be able to ask later.

At it again lads... defending the indefensible

Seems every religion has it's " nuts" !

That depends on how you define "nuts".

In this case, I would say the real meshugas are the radical Zionists who have laid waste to Gaza and are in the process of ethnically cleansing the West Bank.

All in the name of Eretz Israel inspired by the silly fables in their holy books.

Talk about "nuts" - that takes the cake.

If the radical Zionists achieve their dream of Eretz Israel by forcing tbe Palestinians out of Gaza and the West Bank, then diaspora Jews worldwide will pay the price.

In countries with large Muslim populations a peaceful existence for Jews will become untenable.

They will make aliyah whether they want to or not.

Hogwash from the sources that have been producing it since this proxy war began.

For sure.

It's obviously a proxy war... the West against Russia.

The motley support team is replete with Zionist cheerleaders.

Ineptitude and lack of coordination have taken it from tragedy into a farce like something run by the Keystone Kops.

Chiang Mai's Finest... always on the job.

In uniform and in civvies.

They should have been more discreet about this.

A high-profile bust of a Chinese in Chiang Mai for something petty like this will be big news among the travel agents back home.

If Thai gov't policy is to promote tourism from that quarter, they had better change tactics and enforce their laws with less ridiculous publicity. 

That's a tough one.

For flagrant bad behaviour, the prize would have to go to the Brits and Israelis.

For discreet organized criminality, it would go to the Chinese.

If Trump doesn't arbitrate this ongoing dispute, then who will do it?

The Chinese could, but they have been noticeably hesitant in stepping up to the plate.

That's true about China.

Probably because they have interests in both countries that they don't want to put at risk.

In this conflict, Trump is much more likely to be an honest broker.

Unlike the Middle East, he has "no dog in this fight".

We Americans and most Europeans make our bacon from pork belly. The Brits make their bacon from the loin.

We Americans prefer our bacon smoked. Hickory is best, but Apple is OK. To be 'bacon,' and not just sliced pork belly, it needs to be cured correctly and should be cold-smoked.
The Pork loin-style bacon doesn't seem to be smoked.

We can buy excellent smoked American-style bacon in Rimping, sourced from three different suppliers (four if you include the French one that is really, really good!)  

It's easy to find great tasting bacon in Chiang Mai these days!

+1.

Chiang Mai has Gunther's G&M Sausages and bacon... tastes good to me.

Is that "ruining" or "running"?

Either way, it begs the question: "who's running Trump?"

Any guesses?

Okay, check her work permit, visa and driving license... sorry, but no-one with an ounce of sence does this. Smells like a whole load of freshly laid manure IMO.

Also, even if legit and you end up in a lake with your car under water implies you are an incompetent muppet... how does that happen?

She seems like a fool and gave some BS exuces that "I was paniced by the fireworkks" etc. If true, then you should not be near anything close to being in control of a mechanical vehicle.

Clearly no new talent in the Democrat party. 

For sure.

What the Dems need more than anything else is new talent and new faces.

These old warhorses are way past their prime.

Is Tony Blair's demented smile catching, I wonder?

Deport him immediately.

Then pick out ten Russians at random and deport them all together.

That will send a clear message to all of them.

Obama has had his day.

Dems need new blood.

Nobody on their side looks good.

Just a bunch of losers with the same old left-wing ideas that have been tried and failed time and time again.

Remember when Pizza Hut used to be good?

No, I don't.

To me it was always on the lower end of the scale. Almost as bad as Domino's.

The Gold Standard is the pizza made by New York Italians.

Small places in Little Italy, Court St. in Brooklyn, and Arthur Ave. in the Bronx make it like nowhere else.

When Frank Sinatra was staying at the Plaza he would have it sent up from a little hole-in-the-wall place under the BB on the Brooklyn side. The delivery boys would love the run because there was always a C-note tip at the end of it.

In CM The Duke's is pretty good - close, but no cigar.

Lovely girl.

Her success with Blackpink has been long and enduring.

Last August they filled Wembley Stadium for two successive nights.

She's the pride of Thailand, and deservedly so.

HIP HIP HOORAY!!! i really hope so... seeing the back of the shins would be a dream come true

+1.

These pigs have been feeding at the trough for over 20 years now.

 When the corruption becomes too obvious and the leader gets sacked or deposed in some way, another relative or nominee pops up to take their place.

It's political farce of the most brazen kind... TIT.

@hotandsticky

So was "Turn 'em loose Bruce."

Quite true.

My younger brother was a newly minted NY shyster back in the day when Judge Bruce Wright was presiding at the New York City Criminal Court.

As a family court lawyer he was often in the 100 Centre St. building and frequently witnessed the chaos coming out of Judge Wright's chambers.

Turn 'em loose Bruce was eventually brought down by pressure from municipal unions and others who faced a firestorm of "racial prejudice" accusations.

He ended his days as a "greeter" at a Walmart in Old Saybrook, Conn. near where he had gone to live.

"All's well that ends well."

And how far back should I go? To the 1930's when the irgun, the Likud, and the Stern gang were killing British soldiers and civilians, BTW in 1948, before was given Palestinian land, those murderers and terrorists were brought into the Israeli military.

 

Did you also know that Netanyahu is a member of the Likud party. Should I go even further back in time to when the Jews were massacring entire Palestinian villages. Or should I stick with the present day where Jewish settlers are killing Palestinian people and stealing their land for illegal settlements in the West Bank and Gaza whilst the IDF look on and do nothing.

 

Should I even mention that Hamas was an entirely Israeli creation of Israel to combat Fatah.

 

I will mention that there are NO outside news reporters allow in ANY occupied territory, unless they are with the IDF troops.

 

Perhaps I should mention the 60,xxx Palestinian men, women, children and babies slaughtered by the IDF or the fact that the Israeli government is only allowing about 10% of food, water, fuel and medicines to sustain the Palestinian people and that many are literally starving to death,

 

Perhaps it is YOU that needs to read up on the history of the Middle East.

 

Thanks for that exceptionally good reply.

Nothing cuts through the fog of propaganda like the plain truth, simply stated.

Palestinians are not capable of self-governing. 

Funny you should say that about the Palestinians.

It is exactly what the British rulers said about the American colonists in 1776.

If the Israelis don't get rid of the radical meshugas in their government and give the Palestinians a fair deal, and do it soon, the weight of international condemnation will become crushing - as it was with Apartheid South Africa - and the Zionist enterprise will collapse like a house of cards.

Individuals and demographics who are widely hated usually do a good job of bringing it on themselves.

A case in point here.
