He is Iranian. Not the first problem with Iranians in Thailand. Ban all Iranians from Thailand.

Please understand that being anti- genocide is not anti- Semitism

Many Israelis are not Zionists

Most current Israelis are of European decent, not from Middle Eastern heritage and have no historical connection to the land

You really don't know a damn thing about Israel or Jews. The overwhelming majority of Jews and Israelis around the world are Zionists. Over 90%. Roughly half of all Israelis are Mizrahi Jews - Jews whose descendants are from the countries of the Middle East and North Africa, and who were expelled during 1948-51. Most Palestinians are Arabs. Arabs originated in Arabia. It's easy to argue they have no connection to the Holy Land,  except through armed conquest and migration, you know, settler colonialism. On the other hand, about half of the West Bank is a land whose name for millennia has been Judea. You know, where the Jews came from and have a historical connection to. One of the Hamas leaders once answered the question 'who are the Palestinians' by saying 'look at our names. About half of us came from Egypt, the other half from Saudi Arabia.' Yasser Arafat was an Egyptian.

I seem to recall many many more incidents involving Chinese tourists misbehaving in recent years than Israeli ones. And Russians and others too. But the Thais would never dare to post 'No Chinese' or 'No Russians" signs. Thais seem to have forgotten who murdered 40 of their countrymen on October 7, and took about 30 hostage, beating them every day, according to some who were eventually released.

Try learning the true meaning of mafia. This phenomenon has nothing to do with it.

They can allow and promote casinos despite the well documented gambling addiction problems in this country. They can allow and promote a pornography convention, despite the well documented online addiction to pornography in this country. But no cannabis !!!! It is addictive and will harm our people !!!!!!

If you disliked a restaurant and posted a bad review, no foul. If you went on a campaign and repeatedly posted bad reviews and organized your mates to do the same, you've crossed the line. The restaurant should sue. Now, I don't know if he did that, as the restaurant alleges. I guess that will come out in court. But, if he did, he is in the wrong, in my opinion.

This is why the WHO says Thai women are the second most obese in Asia. When I first came to live here more than 20 years ago, most Thai women were very slim. Very attractive. Now, the average Thai woman on Thai dating websites is about 157 centimeters and 65-70 kilos. And more than a few of these fat pigs say they are looking for a "sugar daddy."

This happened to me in Bangkok several years ago. I ended up with a deep cut in my forehead that was bleeding profusely, and I needed to go to an emergency room. Even worse, there were two cops on a motorcycle across the soi who saw the whole thing and laughed and drove away. The next day I went back with a hammer and pounded the metal sign until half of it was destroyed as a bunch of stunned shop owners looked on.

According to Coconuts, the girl's mother said he gave her daughter an STI. And, a supervisor at another school said the teacher was forced to resign after several instances of inappropriate remarks and interactions with students.

Most youth that uses Hitler/Nazism symbols don't know much or at all the true meaning of those acts, they use it to express their own frustrations with either society or their poor life's choice.

That is such freaking nonsense. Hitler is often portrayed in Thailand as a "strong leader," and Thais use these symbols to show that's what they admire. Just a few years back there was a school here that held a parade in which all the students were dressed up as Nazis. No one was expressing societal frustrations. They were having "fun." Including the principal and teachers.

The poor child. Neuter the dog, as should happen with all soi dogs, and he may not be aggressive anymore. I blame the dog owner and the cement company. They should remove the dogs, but I honestly don't know what should be done with them. The BMA caught and took away most soi dogs a few years ago. Sadly, they just dumped them in some huge outdoor pen somewhere upcountry and let them starve to death. And of course they horrifically began attacking and eating each other because they were starving. There has to be a more humane solution than that.
