  1. You said there was no evidence, I gave you the evidence. You just don't like being proven wrong. To avoid bias, there are about 5 cut/pastes in my reply, I assembled them into the right timeline, I won't apologise for posting facts that you found so easily verifiable. The only assumption is that it was Putin himself behind it. It's important to understand the kind of man Putin is, his morals, his scruples, his values, his grudges. When you understand that, you can see the pattern and predict his actions. No heinous act is beyond him if he thinks he can get away with it. On a positive note, I'm pleased to see you're actually doing some research instead of spouting Kremlin propaganda. Try posting some verifiable claims for a change.
  2. I'm sure the other 3 were charms too (until they weren't)
  3. Did I deny that the US etc would do such things? No I didn’t.
  4. Deposits are usually minimal, 10,000 baht typically.
  5. It's entirely down to residents paying the maintenance fee, they should self govern.
  6. Because then I could be an annoying pr?ck too.
  7. I wish I had your time and inclination to post half as often as you do
  8. The anti-EV brigade are relentless. I only have one thing to say to you “Get a life, find something else to occupy your time “ I’m all stocked up on your nonsense, sell crazy someplace else please.
  9. Yes, I used the Terra Config App
  10. Actually there is a wealth of evidence. In July 1999, Russian journalist Aleksandr Zhilin, writing in the Moskovskaya Pravda, warned that there would be terrorist attacks in Moscow organised by the government. Using a leaked Kremlin document as evidence, he added that the motive would be to undermine the opponents of the Russian President Boris Yeltsin. These included Moscow mayor Yury Luzhkov and former prime minister Yevgeny Primakov. However, this warning was ignored. According to Amy Knight, "even more significant is the fact that a respected and influential Duma deputy, Konstantin Borovoi, was told on September 9, the day of the first Moscow apartment bombing, that there was to be a terrorist attack in the city. His source was an officer of the Russian military intelligence (GRU). Borovoy transmitted this information to FSB officials serving on Yeltsin's Security Council, but he was ignored." Beginning 9th September 1999, a series of explosions hit four apartment blocks in the Russian cities of Buynaksk, Moscow, and Volgodonsk, killing more than 300, injuring more than 1,000, and spreading a wave of fear across the country. The bombings, together with the Invasion of Dagestan, triggered the Second Chechen War. The handling of the crisis by Vladimir Putin, who was prime minister at the time, boosted his popularity greatly and helped him attain the presidency within a few months. A suspicious device resembling those used in the bombings was found and defused in an apartment block in the Russian city of Ryazan on 22 September. On 23 September, Vladimir Putin praised the vigilance of the inhabitants of Ryazan and ordered the air bombing of Grozny, which marked the beginning of the Second Chechen War. Three FSB agents who had planted the devices at Ryazan were arrested by the local police. The next day, FSB director Nikolay Patrushev announced that the incident in Ryazan had been an anti-terror drill and the device found there contained only sugar, and freed the FSB agents involved. The official investigation of the Buynaksk bombing was completed in 2001, while the investigations of the Moscow and Volgodonsk bombings were completed in 2002. Attempts at an independent investigation faced obstruction from the Russian government. State Duma deputy Yuri Shchekochikhin filed two motions for a parliamentary investigation of the events, but the motions were rejected by the State Duma in March 2000. An independent public commission to investigate the bombings was chaired by Duma deputy Sergei Kovalev. The commission was rendered ineffective because of government refusal to respond to its inquiries. Two key members of the Kovalev Commission, Sergei Yushenkov and Yuri Shchekochikhin, have since died in apparent assassinations. The commission's lawyer and investigator Mikhail Trepashkin was arrested and served four years in prison "for revealing state secrets". A number of historians and investigative journalists have instead called the bombings a false flag attack perpetrated by Russian state security services to win public support for a new war in Chechnya and to boost the popularity of Vladimir Putin prior to the upcoming presidential elections.
  11. The difference is Putin engineered a false flag attack in 1999 and bombed his own civilians in their apartment buildings. Alexander Litvinenko gave full details at his British debriefing when he came for asylum and wrote about it in his book. It's why he was killed.
  12. You're assuming this to be an escalation by the US, we don't know that. I don't think you understand the kind of man Putin is, you can't read about it in Russia. He has killed hundreds of Russians as early as 1999.
  13. It's pointless to speculate who first used them, we can never find the truth. What we need to understand is that neither Russia or Ukraine signed the Convention on Cluster Munitions, nor did the USA who supplies them to Ukraine (in return Ukraine promised to only use them against military targets).
  14. Neither, the car smelled some Chicken Chow Mein and fought against the driver to get to it.
  15. Nonsense. Both sides are using cluster munitions. I would shut up if I were you and do some research. it's clear you've been hoodwinked by Kremlin propaganda, hardly surprising when it's the only narrative permitted in Russia. While documenting the impact of the attack on the morning of June 12, "law enforcement officers discovered fragments of dangerous (Russian) cluster submunitions," the Kyiv Oblast Police said. Russia attacked Odesa on April 29 with an Iskander missile armed with a cluster munition warhead, killing at least five people and injuring around 30, including children.

  16. It is normal for most states in the world to require basic proficiency in their language before granting citizenship. If you're asking me was it wrong for Ukraine to try and remove Russian as a language, yes it was wrong. Was it correct to make sure Ukrainian is the principal language used in schools, yes it was absolutely correct and is done all over the world. In my country, we accept all faiths and nationalities, but our schools teach English. We don't accept British children growing up and not understanding our language and that is correct for Ukraine & Ukrainian.
  17. Your quoting war now, you were quoting slaughter before. Again, what you have posted is your undoing. Let's look at why those people died... In February 2014, Russian military covertly attacked and occupied Ukrainian Crimea. Protests and unrests started in the East of Ukraine (Donbas), with researchers characterize as "unclear to what extent the protests in the east were initiated by local dissatisfaction with the situation in Kyiv, and to what extent they were organized and supported from Russia". Ukraine and Russia - Paul D'Anieri - Google Books After years of illegitimate meddling, Russia’s covert armed attack on Ukraine began with the military occupation of Crimea in late February 2014. In parallel with a successful operation to annex the South Ukrainian peninsula, Russia instigated unrest in the eastern Ukrainian Donets Basin (Donbas) and attempted to do so elsewhere in the country. In May 2014, Moscow’s agents managed to establish two unrecognized artificial statelets, the “Donetsk People’s Republic” (DNR) and the “Lugansk People’s Republic” (LNR). In doing so, Moscow employed some of the tools it had previously used to prop up the non-government-controlled areas that had emerged in Moldova and Georgia in the 1990s. It then used older recipes from its interventions in Georgia and Moldova to establish negotiation formats and foundational texts in order to trap the victims of Russian aggression and involve Western states in the logic of “frozen conflict”. After some territorial gains by the Moscow-led paramilitary units, the Ukrainian armed forces launched an initially successful counter-offensive in the summer of 2014. Kyiv reconquered a significant amount of lost territory, including the strategically crucial port city of Mariupol. Before this, apart from special forces operatives and irregular fighters sent by Moscow, only smaller groups of regular Russian troops had entered eastern Ukraine. In late August 2014, however, Russia intervened for the first time in this part of the country, sending a large detachment of unmarked regular ground forces to fight on behalf of its Donbas proxy militias. Following a devastating defeat of the Ukrainian army at Ilovaisk and fearing significant further losses, Kyiv agreed to negotiations with Moscow in Minsk, the capital of Belarus.

  18. You're a Q Anon conspiracist too? I suggest you post some links to backup your claim.
  19. That may be possible, it is at risk if the other shareholders get to hear of it and lodge an objection. It would be important that your will specifically mentioned the shares and not the property. There was a case recently where a French lady left a house in a company to her Thai maid and the court said the property has to be sold and the 49% given to the maid.
  20. That's the problem. They were not Russian citizens, and they were not being slaughtered, that's Kremlin propaganda. What was happening was de-russification and imposition of the Ukrainian language. From 2014 Russia sent in hordes of undercover militia, the Donbas was relatively "sweet" before that. This is Putin's land grab, pure and simple.
  21. In her head she is already cheating. It's just a case of whether she can turn it into an opportunity. The problem with bar girls is they learn to separate sex from love. That's a bad lesson to learn. Over time sex with her husband becomes mundane and the idea of cheating turns into a sexual fantasy and if the opportunity arises, well you know the rest.
  22. Do you mean Alexei Navalny or Boris Nemtsov? Nemtsov appeared in the polls that he was going to beat Putin. You're probably not aware that Putin changed the law in Russia to allow the security services to assassinate on Russian soil or otherwise any enemy of the Kremlin. Enemy of the Kremlin is open to interpretation, it can mean anyone who stands against the regime (e.g. campaigning against the regime leading up to an election). Both those politicians were allegedly killed by Putin. Navalny was killed by Novichok, it destroyed his health, a little hard labour saw him off. The we have Skripol (failed assassination attempt), Anna Politkovskaya, Alexander Litvinenko, Boris Berezovsky... I am glad you raised that. Some of those well written factual comments have been debunked by me in great detail. Like the fiction the Luhansk and Donbas are majority Russian, I posted 2 surveys disproving that. Interesting you should raise that. Due to his film studies and life in Russia, Sergey Loznitsa named himself a Russian documentary filmmaker. Sergey Loznitsa - Biography - IMDb As I have just said, none of those parts were ethnic Russian, only a minority of the population were. The invaders expected to be welcomed with open arms and that was far from what happened. A 2 week military operation is more than enough to take all of Ukraine. The mistake Russia made was concentrating on the Donbas area instead of Kyiv. Had they succeeded in Kyiv and knocked out communication networks, the country would have fallen in days. Like most dictators, Putin has surrounded himself with sycophants, all he hears is what he wants to hear. Idiots like Kadyrov told Putin they would conquer Kyiv for him.
  23. I watched an interview with Warren Buffet when he sold last year, you're reading it all wrong. You're jumping to an incorrect conclusion because he just sold 1.7% of his holding, it's peanuts and inline with what he said he would do last year. The only wriggler is you, when your sensationalist 30% became 1.7%
