You might learn something about Thailand, and thai smiles, before including it in your hackneyed cultural platitudes.

The Europeon Recovery Program commonly called the Marshall Plan passed by congress in 1948, would end up costing more than 12 billion dollars in US taxpayer money. That BTW was one of the main arguments against it used by the Taft led Republican party who opposed Trumans program.

The military opened fire on the red shirts, killing scores. If you were being shot, killed and no way to fight back, what would you do? A fact then, a fact now. The T mans real crime, if an expat, was unleashing the genie of populist nationalism. Blaming western banks, read 'Farangs', for deliberately causing the 97 economic collapse. BTW all parties; red, yellow, or green, believe that now, it is become part of Thai populist history, as Thais can never be blamed for such things. Time to stock up on Booze & Bud. The T man just might have an act II.

Really. Where at in Vegas are they requiring ID checks to determine if you are foreign?

Fake OP. Fake News has always been endemic to Thailand.

Yuck. Out of the movies and into real life.

He is not coming, he never was coming, but it does keep the pressure on ganggreen with what ifs. This time, as they dismantle latest election results. Assume the 6 day holiday is as much to get their minions in lock step installing one of their own as PM, while playing benevolent overlords. As usual the T man is pretty clued in to the games they play.

Medical expenses + trauma is getting off light. Time to quit coddling accessories to violent crime.. If the pet is criminal, the owners are too. Jail Time, plus damages.

Did not check the brand or look closely, I was buying meji yoghurt & meji protein whey drink at Rimping Nim City today. However there were cartons/plastic bottles of milk there, likely fewer than normal.

No, vets are not beng recalled for deployment. Time to get back on RT network and find some other fake news to throw up against the wall in hopes of it sticking. Good luck.

Just turn up at the airport, you will be ok. Oh wait!

Likely the family or the kid will be blamed for going to Koh Tao in the first place. However excellent chance he did not know any better. That is what massaging the media to protect tourism will do, people just do not know.

The US does not have hate speech laws. BTW I notice that my nose hairs need to be trimmed, lucky for me have my FOX news nose hair trimmer handy.

Biden would have been far better. It takes a remarkable blowhard of a fool, to ignore US scientists and state department intel (about Wuhan), and buy into China's happy propaganda during the first months of the Wuhan virus. He did that, while claiming it would all go away once summer came. After it did not just 'go away', he used it to divide the nation. Instead of pulling people together he set them at loggerheads and encouraged a fight; culture wars. You have to go back to Warren G Harding to find someone as inept & incompetent. At least that old geezer died while in office.

That must be some Chiang Mai suburb you live in. While their forecasts have been generally wrong, yesterdays late afternoon squall line was a nice dump. Good to get a serious downpour rather than those middle of the night thunder & lightning line squalls from this last week. Those did fill the moats to brimming though.

Russia uses cluster munitions, in the past and in their current war in the Ukraine. They have used them far more extensively than the Ukraine in this current war. Ex KGB agent, Vlad Putins Russia, is only getting, what they give. Good call, Joe.

The thought had crossed my mind. ???? There was another one five years back (?). Forget all the details but yes, dismembered body still in the freezer. You have to find a pig farm or make other plans. Bodies in the freezer have a nasty habit of coming back at you.

Obsessed about the US aren't you. This is Thailand. FBI has no jurisdiction here, nor would they be permitted to run around arresting people here for crimes committed in Thailand. No idea how you think that is even possible.

Search around your city/province for a print shop that makes laminated passport cards. One side has face page of your passport, the backside has a copy of your current visa, or extension. You can put in your wallet and police, hospitals, etc. are fine with it.

Maybe but as it has been said ... 'You're always gonna have problems lifting a body in one piece. Apparently the best thing to do is cut up a corpse into six pieces and pile it all together. And when you got your six pieces, you gotta get rid of them, because it's no good leaving it in the deep freeze for your mum to discover, now is it?' They did all right in the chop up phase, but pooch screwed and left it in the deep freeze.

Thailand takes the highroad, and told the FBI to walk?! Huh what? All Speculation on your part as this has nothing to do with the US or the FBI. Still from the article I would draw a completely opposite conclusion. Thailand absolutely loves foreign nonsense if they can make a show catch of a naughty farang and get headlines out of it no matter how trivial a rap. Probably make a little money on it too. FBI should be happy as clams with news like this.

When you lose an election, you have to blame someone or something. Still Thailand and the US have not really been friends or allies since 1997's economic crisis fall out, 25 years ago. Yes Obama did make an effort but ... BTW, this article is written by Mr Bob Scott (if that is is real name); a well known "White Monkey".

The Yellows were/are the alter ego of the Democratic Party of Thailand. A party which historically has had little to do with democracy. BTW if you are going to try to deflect, up your game.

The Democrats were/are the Yellow party. You need to deny harder.

A Sassenack Yob in Pattaya. Why does this even make the news?
