    People are finding it difficult to distinguish among the State of Israel and the Jewish religious diaspora. The action against Palestinians had been taken by a country and there are many Jews globally who don't see eye to eye with what Israel has done.

    NATO would have to protect the USA if Russia or China attacked it. It isn't just about Europe.

    Good speech about what not to do, not banning dissenting voices, like was done to the Associated Press for not obeying his boss. But aside from that confusing message, his speechwriter did a good job.

    Is immigration easier for Thais in the US, UK or EU? Just want to compare.

    Perhaps Thailand has one of the world's worst English proficiency levels but there are many other languages needed for trade and economics. Chinese and Spanish for instance. Thailand wants tourism but who speaks Russian and Estonian? Foreigners are needed here if Thailand wants to keep up with the rest of the world.

    What goes around comes around. Some people think they're untouchable.

    She wasn't a prostitute if he hadn't paid her yet. She stole money and so is a thief. 🤣

    This happens in every province and has nothing to do with foreigners.

    When the first polyester shirts came out my mother told me they were half the price of cotton shirts. So I had to wear them even if they couldn't breathe and sweat ran down the inside in summer. Later, I was told that the polyester mix in cotton shirts went up as far as 60%. No one could tell the difference. Thus, if a shirt label says "cotton" it is a blend. If it says "100% cotton" it is all cotton. But cheap is what mums want.

    Another crackdown. Like musical chairs.

    Everyone's a food critic.

    I wish people would stop raking up that Trump probably wants revenge for Ukraine not digging up the dirt on Biden as demanded before his first election in 2020. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump–Ukraine_scandal It's not fair. Trump would never be vengeful. (Straight face 🤭)

    She has been happy to dress half naked over the years. I guess whole naked was a bridge too far

    The sins of the fathers etc. Teach the kids getting an education overseas that they are criminals because of who their parents are. Teach them to hate others, because they will never hate their fathers.

    Ralph McTell used to sing and play guitar on the streets of France and it was considered ok 50 years ago. Then you had to get a permit. You get foreign people playing on the metro and at stations even today. Perhaps Thailand fears foreign musicians are so much better than Thais that they will take over the music industry.

    Don't drive Drunk means please do drink, just not too much. There is no intention to stop drinking and driving. In other countries it is common for police to wait in pub carparks. Having the car keys in your hand as you said in the driver's seat is all the reason they need.

    So which nationality? Or can I guess?

    Lowering national debt would help more than shutting national agencies. That would allow government to operate within their budget. The Department of Education, established by Congress, cannot be deleted by the President. How about the Department of Defense? Stop wasteful expenditure, sure. Cut the people who look after the nuclear defense of the nation, not so good.

    I read that gamblers are addicted but are they addicted to the gambling or the dopamine in their brain when they win?

    Let the court pass judgement and see what happens.

    No mention of Chinese proficiency. Much more useful in this region.

    Besides all the childish bickering on AN, I would love for Trump's cancel culture to save America trillions and not have to increase the debt limit again.

    It puzzles me how they make enough money to buy a camera then to think taking videos of strangers will earn a living wage.

    I doubt Thailand has many advantages for Americans. It is far too neutral, or better, middle of the road. Forever trying not to be part of just one side, it tries to take no sides.
