  1. People get undies in a knot over "from the river (Jordan) to the sea" which would be their future Palestine. However, it is smaller than what God supposedly promised the Israelis, from Baghdad to Egypt. Much larger than Palestine. And remember OT god wanted Israelis to kill most (genocide) all of the unchosen so they could not "pollute" the chosen people.
  2. I would suggest removing "leftist" from "loons". The Islamic hard core states, like Afghanistan, are anything but liberal or leftist. ISIS, Hamas, etc are all hard core authoritarian rulers much closer to Orban, Trump, Putin than any liberal belief of any sort
  3. RIP How about heat plus abominable low quality of air? Sort of a "one-two" punch?
  4. The number of pro Trump protesters would "fill a sedan" one reporter said Not one family member as shown up in court for the trial. Not one. One analyst remarked "Jeffrey Dahmer's (the cannibal) parents came every day when he was on trial.". Niece Mary Trump remarked everything in that family is transactional, and there is nothing in Donald's trial that is seen as worth attending
  5. The FART team collects evidence, gets it together, and passes it to the Special House Investigative Team (the ones have this team for brains) who bring it to the house floor and leave it there, preferably in a flaming bag
  6. Rule number one from biz school being ignored: "Don't throw good money after bad"
  7. Maybe they should start an international "health hub campaign" with Thaksin as their celeb spokesperson...
  8. "....concerns are growing that loopholes in Thailand’s hazardous waste controls could be fatal.".... but not to the wealthy owners who rake in the profits. Just the unprotected ignorant workers
  9. Maybe she recently viewed The Princess Bride bit with Max the miracle man?
  10. Maybe in honor of Orwell they rebrand it as "Ministry of Truth.... Social" or anti social...
  11. Good indicator of how pathetic trump fans are that they go after an inconsequential non story to try to make some false equivalence to their personal savior who told >30,000 documented lies during office... who knows how many since then? And his latest lie (misquote from Fox): “’They are catching undercover Liberal Activists lying to the Judge in order to get on the Trump Jury," NO evidence, pure lie, misquote of Fox shill, so can't even use that... plus Mr Law and Order has violated gag order intending to subvert jury trial
  12. So there is no historical site/building preservation laws (with tax breaks) to keep this place as it is? looks pretty nice to me. Not a "shed"... and being of wood, doesn't perform like a pizza oven concrete eyesore they build these days
  13. Laws here are about as functional as fins on 1950's Cadillacs.
  14. If authorities (sometimes called "police") did something resembling their jobs, these things would not happen: vendors would have specific sites for each and would be enforced by an honest police. I know, never gonna happen
  15. Here is BBC report, perhaps a tad more neutral than a US news source. Ah, "executive time"... hahahaTrump daily schedule when President
  16. What are the hours the court is in session? remember seeing his schedule while in the White House included late rising, puttering about with Fox on in background, long lunch... basically hours of a retired man with few hobbies or interests To expect him to stay awake, even get up in the morning, is more than "Sleepy Don" can handle
  17. The photo appears to be from a celebration of Holi, a Hindu festival. It already has plenty of "renown" and not so much in Thailand. Try India. duh
  18. Bangkok battles hazardous levels of PM2.5 dust Battles? What battles? I've never seen any battles. Like ants chewing on elephant's foot. As far as battling pollution, I'd say Thai government et al take a pacifist "wait and see" or "thoughts and prayers" strategy
  19. Me too. I wonder where all the unsold shirts disappear to.... here today gone tomorrow. I'd be willing to buy even more if they give me a little discount...
  20. You think it is fine to invade, take over, block government from doing it's Constitutional duty if no one goes to the hospital? Really? Old Sufi saying "The best answer to a fool is silence" and that is what you will be getting from me. Can't fix stupid
  21. that is some strange reasoning: please explain. How do you define homosexual, other than by behavior? Tastes in shoes? decorating? www.humandignitytrust.org/lgbt-the-law/map-of-criminalisation/?embed=true" frameborder="0"></iframe> This is good world resource: can click on continent & country and shows the laws. I randomly hit Brunei, little Asian country: Criminalisation: Criminalises LGBT people Criminalises sexual activity between males Criminalises sexual activity between females Criminalises the gender expression of trans people Imposes the death penalty or maybe a trip next door to Myanmar: Criminalisation: Criminalises LGBT people Criminalises sexual activity between males Criminalises the gender expression of trans people Maximum punishment: Ten years imprisonment I'm not gay, but reckon what adults do with consent to each other is none of the governments damn business The web site of laws https://www.humandignitytrust.org/lgbt-the-law/map-of-criminalisation/
  22. Looks like the men in the photo are almost wearing burkas... I'm amazed they allow any music at all
