There never was a country called Palestine. It was a REGION, nothing else. Populated with Arabs and Jews. A paltestinian citizenship never existed in histoy. ...as the Jews did an do. Israel has imho no intention to occupy Gaza permanently. They went in to fight Hamas-killers. It's their good right to act in self defence and whipe out those disgusting terrorists.

Fully agree. The question is how Israel can defend itself against Hamas terrorists using civilians as human shields and hiding in hospitals.

It's not a question of nationality it's one of humanity. If there's a genocide happening in Gaza, Egypt should open it's border for refugees. Any idea why they are not willing to? Yes, easily. I'm talking about Gaza, not West Bank. To repeat nonsens does not make it more true. There never was a Palestine in history. So called Palestinians are arabs, nothing else. They don't do the same. As far as I know there are no phosphor- and cluster bombs used by the IDF.

What could the Israelis do when Hamas terrorists hide behind civilians and in hospitals? Relax and let them plan the next massacre? They do what others did and would do in the same situation. Remember "Operation Vigilant Resolve" and "Operation Phantom Fury" in 2004, when the US bombed the city of Faludscha? They used Phosphor bombs, uranium ammunition and cluster bombs. By the way: Where are the arab brothers? Egypt could easily open their border for civilians?

Oh, sorry. I did not know that "Time" belongs to the pro Trump fake news media.

So true! https://time.com/6320076/american-poverty-levels-state-by-state/ Four more years! 🙂

"bloodbath"? Trump predicts a civil war if he will not be elected? The devil is orange! Really? It's the context, stupids!

@richard_smith237 thank you very much. I'll find out which DL she has.

Hi all, I'd like to take my Thai GF to Europe (EU) for a longer holiday and here's my question: Is she allowed to drive a car there with her Thai drivers licence? If yes, does she need something else (such as translation or an international driving licence)? Sorry if I took the wrong sub forum. Thanks for your replies and have a nice day.

Queers for Palestine.... ...and chickens for KFC

Bad in the short run, but it was high time to stop the only cash-driven groth. Necessary to fight inflation and at least good for millions of small savers who don't have the options that wealthy people have and who are those to see their savings melting away day by day. Remeber times where interest rates were much higher than now and it did not endanger groth. Becaus it was not only driven by expending the money supply.

So if you name facts as above you're a vaccine and Covid denier? Or could it be you're a reality denier?

What's so bad? inpolite IOs? The burocracy? agree. What else? The once a year visit at the office where you have to manage the crowded place to get your extension? 90days report which can be done online (if it works)? The "horrible" 1900 THB? Really? As told before: 400/800k requirement has not changed as long as I can remember. Where are the comparable countries with lower requirements? ´What we all have to accept is that we're (longtime) guests in Thailand, not god's gift to the country.

A first world destination? With first world requirements for retirees too? I can already hear the screaming ????

in what else should they be interested in?

No doubt, there are moronic IOs, different "requirements" in different provinces and many foreigners had bad experiences with the crazy burocracy. But let's be realistic: Thailand still is one of the most easy countries to retire to, especially for people on the lower range of income. The 800/400k bank thing has not changed since ages. Back to the "good old days", when people, who did not qualify for a correct visa or a retirement extension made monthly border runs for years? Would one of us want to have those people living in our home countries? I think, for each one who reports here about problems with IO, there's another one doing his yearly extensions without problems, but that usually will not be posted. I stay here a long time now and never ever had any problem with visa and - later - extensions. Some IOs were more polite, others less. My decision to leave Thailand when my son is old enough to study abroad comes not from bad IOs or the feeling "they don't want us", but from the political situation, the pollution, environmental problems and a climate, that fits less for me than in earlier years. I'm still grateful to Thailand and it's people for the very good time I had and still have here.

Immigration in each country deals with whom? Right, they deal with foreign nationals. Does the IO in your home country speak Spanish, Mandarin, Arabic or Kisuaheli to deal with the foreigenrs in front of him?

What? No understandable English? How dare this evil witch! You're guest in a country where the spoken language is Thai. Learn to express yourself junderstandable if you want to live here.

If that annoys you, you should check out the situation in so-called first world countries. You would be shocked. At least for Germany I know what I'm talking about and I doubt, the situation in GB and some EU countries is very different.

Trump is the best campaigner for Ole Joe's re-election.

BS

Then you have a new president ????

Speeding inside the city is putting yourself at risk. And others too! idiotic and irrisponsible bevahoir. At least he did not hurt others and was fast enough not to set up a go-fund-me later. I say this as a passionate biker who is not on the slow side of driving when outside from city limits
