  1. I will be home in the berry and fruit season from now on, so not missing out of the delicious Norwegian strawberries, sweet morels, cherries, black berries, plums, pears, apples, mullets, and fresh vegetables is different in the nordics, not to forget cold water fish, crabs, raindeer, and other wild animals meat avaiable for a decent penny. The longer I stayed in Thailand the more sure I became not to let go of my mother country. To many benefits even climate can be harsh 3-4 months a year, not wort it. Fresh free air and aircondition as my wife says
  2. I did all that before I semi retired, now I do what I can to be the best I can against my close ones, and for myself. Also more dedicated reading international politics, religion and history, as well balanced diet, less alchohol and better technique lifting weights, and not ego lifting. Work less do more
  3. In my eyes there is no way back for Israel now, and I know I make the risk of being cancelled once again, I will say it carefully so it is understandable and not step over a fine line. Israel have to finish the war, and make no options for a two state only one state with future equal rights. It is a far shot, but, there is no other realistic options really. Continue with a two state solution will create another potential terrorist state controlled by the Israelis, and just another open prison for the next decades.
  4. well to answer your question, it is far to late, and now way to early As long the hostage situation is going on, way to early, I know I have talked warm about why this war happenend, it doesnt mean we should give after for terrorism or brutal dominance by powers who have their share of the guilt! There is no right or wrong in this war.
  5. We are part of a treaty and do our share to keep our countries interests and our partners safe as well for our workers, infrastructure and businesses whe have invested in.
  6. just to late! Far to late, I do not agree with the timing, way to early after 7. october and due to the ongoing Israeli war against Hamas! This is seen in retrospective how Israel became a state, and prove terrorism works for a higher goal! Totally wrong and the prime minister just lost next election.
  7. I do not know if you know how valuable this treaty is for Usa, and as a businessman Trump is, he is trying to squeeze harder to make more out of an already lucrative deal for Usa. Not only weapons, but also bilateral deals. We will see how long some of the previous east block members choose to sit still, and what side they finely choose to be on. This have just started. Read about how the 3% GDP requirment, and know what you talking about when you claim it is a fair goal for every member to reach, especially thinking about Trumps mafia methods, you can imagine how well taken this is among Nato members. Still I have thought long time before we have built down our own self defense in Norway, and invested in more mobility defense where we have participated abroad more and more. We also changed our laws, so Norwegian soldiers could participate in wars under foreign countrol, and not only Un missions. We have now troops in Asia, middle east, Africa, on the boarder to Russia in Lithuania and also training personell in Ukraine.
  8. So which low cost countries would that be? Strategic Thailand is important for the west, so it will not happen. Imagine Chineese bases in Thailand?
  9. One thing Thailand is good at, it is seeing trough world politics bs and use their strategic position and economic advantages for their own best as long it lasts. They can for long time balance between the leading economics without any sanctions which they proved well during the military governments.
  10. Dont you find it kind of strange the west kept Thailand under their arms even after two military two coups during the last 20 years? Strategic reasons, economical reasons? We know what Thailand wil do if China starts moving, they will make themselves useful, and with this flag day, they officially mark they are with not only Iran, but China and Russia! This is an official stand for those powers. Even Iran is behind Hamas terror attack where 20 thais still hostage or so? it can also be seen as a protest against Israel!
  11. Latest I could find on official Iran Thai relations Dr Raisi in the ceremony of receiving credentials of the new Thai Ambassador: Iran ready to further improve level of relations with Thailand/ Iran's readiness to exchange capabilities in various fields with Thailand / Thai Ambassador expresses hope for his country to benefit from Iran's capabilities in scientific and economic fields 2023/10/24 https://president.ir/en/147525
  12. Oh, my, what can possible go wrong with RFK, Usa is in a deep black bull pie hole with those three (trump and biden) on top of the list.
  13. After Thailand buying chinese subs, do you think they will get F35?
  14. So, Prayuth is out of thai politics, or wait,
  15. Where is the connection, this is quite surprising news, But as said before, Thailand is a dictatorship who hold their friends close, be it China, Usa or Russia, and now Iran. Not much here, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran–Thailand_relations
  16. Keep on trying, cant give up for same bad apples
  17. No meta, tik tok or telegram. Family use Snapchat and Line. No X either
  18. Use of confused emotions reaches new hights 😘
  19. Yes they have continue to steal land, and protect illegal settlers! The blockade have more or less managed to kill Gazans fishing industry, so again, you are biased and lying, if you do not know better, check your facts. It is just incredible you guys can continue to defend Isreal in every matter that seems to be negative, even you guys know their crimes for decades, you still find ways to make excuses on their behalf.
  20. As well they also encourage people to start stockpiling food and other resources for the coming crisis. When covid became news, my parents in law just laughing when I started to stockpile rise, and other food that could be stored long time, as well a large freezer, but now, they are the ones who have started to save up necessery things.
  21. I do not think Usa will aknownledge ICC or the international court if he get convicted. There is a long history of attempts to press charges against the war hawks from the war on terror, with no luck. I do no think they will succeed this time either. For me it just proves the double standard once more. The war on terror, produced more weapons, more tensions, more hate, more terrorists, and more will do do harm to the west. It is an endless loop. Again China wins, by doing nothing
  22. Americans Personally I Cant see different between Putin and Netenyahu, both war criminals, and just to mention it, it should not be necessery, but Hamas leaders included, but that should be obvious for most people.
  23. As expected from Biden and the white house. Anything else would make them as guilty as Israel, so this was expected. Just confirmes the west two faced and opereate with double standard. The ICC prosecutor’s application for arrest warrants against Israeli leaders is outrageous. And let me be clear: whatever this prosecutor might imply, there is no equivalence — none — between Israel and Hamas. We will always stand with Israel against threats to its security. https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2024/05/20/statement-from-president-joe-biden-on-the-warrant-applications-by-the-international-criminal-court/
