SAS Shooting of Four IRA Men in 1992 Ruled Unjustified
animalmagic replied to Social Media's topic in World News
The weapon appears to be a DSHK 12.7mm, normally used in a fire support or antiaircraft mode. The weapon was welded to the back of the truck and was ready to use; it had been used in such a manner a short time earlier. It is not something the terrorists would dismount and fire from the hip! The effective range is 2,4 km and it is capable of penetrating 20 mm of armour up to 500 mtr away! It would be the height of stupidity and tantamount to suicide to call for the terrorists to surrender as they had already shown they were willing and able to shoot at any target. The police force I worked in had regulations stating firearms could be used to protect yourself or any other person from death or serious bodily injury; that includes shooting before the bad guy pulls the trigger. We could also use firearms to effect the arrest of any person who had committed a serious and violent crime and use of force was the only means to do so. Both scenarios apply to the four terrorists who were in possession of a very powerful weapon that they had already used to attack a different location and were turning up to a new location for another go. That coroner is talking out of his.....'autopsy'! -
Barbaric terrorists attacked Jews, and anyone else the could find and capture, on October 7. Torturing, raping and murdering non combatants before taking hundreds of hostages. The IDF carried out operations as precise as possible to rescue their hostages only to find that the barbaric terrorists used schools, hospitals and their own population to suffer damage and death that could be blamed on the jews. The IDF is not a Jewish army but has Bedouins, Christians and muslems serving in it.

Teenage Brit Involved in Fatal Road Collision in Pattaya
animalmagic replied to Georgealbert's topic in Pattaya News
If it's daily, take a picture and show us; or just blame Google! I don't think you can say there was no accident as it was Google, and you obviously weren't there to see if there was something further down the road. -

Teenage Brit Involved in Fatal Road Collision in Pattaya

You claim it happens every weekday but the picture you use to demonstrate this is from May 2022; almost 3 years ago! Surely a weekday occurrence would have more recent evidence? Secondly that is a picture of the Thai police wearing the correct Hi-Viz vests and using traffic cones to regulate traffic in response to some incident (accident, congestion, other traffic issue) and ensure that traffic moves more smoothly. -
JFK assassination papers declassified !

There are lots of theories out there; some more plausible than others. My observations are on those facts and events that create uncertainties that question the narrative. -
JFK assassination papers declassified !
animalmagic replied to dinsdale's topic in Off the beaten track
I've actually visited this location and found it hard to believe that an individual in the 'sniper's lair' gave up a position where the target was moving toward him slowly and came to an almost complete stop before turning left onto Elm Street; a relatively easy shot for anyone familiar with firearms. The sniper allegedly gave up this position to run downstairs and shoot from the grassy knoll where the suspect was going downhill, moving to the left and increasing speed. From the first position the target is moving in one plane of movement towards the sniper and making the shot very easy; the target basically moved into the crosshairs. From the grassy knoll the target was moving in three planes of movement making the shot more and more difficult as time progressed with a constant need to readjust and reacquire the target. https://th.bing.com/th/id/R.322e4b4e1d8334d1e689c60f6d709029?rik=7q2kgjzTC3Bghg&riu=http%3A%2F%2F1.bp.blogspot.com%2F-D9qL74XKxh8%2FUSoNOi5h6HI%2FAAAAAAAAA70%2FrsuB8Ew3NgY%2Fs1600%2FGarrison.jpg&ehk=6tiWeojM4K%2Fpw5sBJAYp65cmjUvPDVhDS9bKHWcCFJI%3D&risl=&pid=ImgRaw&r=0&sres=1&sresct=1 -
Brit expats in Thailand warned of scams targeting bank accounts
animalmagic replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
In 2022 Statista estimated losses to online payment fraud alone was expected to reach $20 billion USD for 2021, a 14% year on year growth from the previous year. That only forms part of the total picture as online payment fraud is included in total losses to cybercrime. The World Economic Forum’s 2019 Cybercrime Report puts economic losses from all cybercrime, which includes online payment fraud, in 2020 at 3 trillion USD and projected this to double to 6 trillion USD in 2021! -

Israel’s Disinformation Campaign Against UNRWA
animalmagic replied to Social Media's topic in World News
By the way ... Israel has the right to defend itself when attacked . Of course . - OK, you start well. But when has Israel been attacked ? - October the 7th, and many other times in the past. The Hamas terrorists who attacked the festival goers and the kibbuzim wanted to do their hateful acts to hurt and kill some Israelis , because they hate all Israelis . - The Hamas terrorists whose manifesto includes the destruction of Israel and its citizens. A genocidal manifesto. That was never meant to be an attack on the state of Israel itself . - Seriously?! An armed intrusion into a sovereign country is not an attack on that country? Israel " defended " itself by committing a genocide ... you can turn it many times , but it is still that . - The ICC has accused Israel of committing genocide but the actions of Israel did not meet the legal definition of genocide. So , Israels ' right to defend itself ' did not , never , imply the use of lethal force on a whole population . - Israel has even advised the population of Gaza of when and where they will attack; it is Hamas that keeps them in harm's way as human shields. As I said before , Israels goal is territorial expansion , and all means are considered good enough to reach that goal . - Israel has given up land for peace and forcibly removed its settlers from Gaza many years ago. Egypt used to control Gaza and they never gave the Gazans self determination. Israel, previously called Judea (land of the Jews) was in the same area 500 years before Islam even existed. -
Government stated that the reason for the tax was because of rich people buying up land to avoid inheritance tax. So, stop people doing that through other legal methods, not ill thought out taxation that is just used to help the government balance the books while not cutting 'other' budgets. It is the rich property developers that have caused the land values to increase to a point where many of the family farms fall into the taxable category. Simple solution is to waive inheritance tax on land and machinery bequeathed for farming provided that it is used for farming for the next 50 years and not sold to property developers. If not adhered to then levy Capital Gains Tax and Inheritance Tax at an exorbitant level on the individual selling it for development.
