  1. Context please. Spain is experiencing "an influx of predominantly Latin American immigrants". This is a critical factor because it allows for a better integration of immigrants. It should be obvious; - Similar language - Similar religion, ethnicity and culture When an immigrant shares many of the characteristics of the host country and understands the local language, then integration is easier. Job placement is easier too. It is a sharp contrast to the Arab and African migrants who migrate Often they do not share a similar culture or understand the local language. They end up on social benefits, living in ghettos and clinging to their homeland culture, not integrating.
  2. The only group which makes a large profit with little risk are the owners of the F1 business.
  3. When the chat programs became accessible. Do you have a preferred program?
  4. It is a nonsensical statement out of context and not reflective of the political views of Lt. Jabotinsky MBE.
  5. And once again another statement attributed to a person out of context. Jabotinsky was not a zionist leader. He was however a Lieutenant in the the Royal Fusiliers, serving in WWI and awarded an MBE. He was given to imagery befitting his his prewar career as as a poet and playwright. Radical leftists and Arab nationalists have tried to characterize the man as a right wing anti arab agitator. The reality is that his political writings advocate for a co-existence with arabs and that no arab should be forced out their home or off of their land. He is the one who made the argument that the arabs in Israel should join in the new prosperity as equals. This sentiment did not go over well with some Israelis, or Arabs as it promoted co-existence, and so he was targeted, subject to false claims.
  6. This shows how screwed up the Russians are. North Korea and Russia are the only two nations and maybe Pakistan would do this. However, now that the USA has shown that it is neither isolationist or a coward like the EU does not have much to worry about. Anyone screwing around will get vaporized. Iran had 15 years to negotiate an agreement. Instead it delayed, lied and dragged talks out. The plan that you are trying to pass off as an agreement to limit nuclear arms was not. The Iranians, one week after signing stated that the plan would not limit their nuclear weapon and missile development activities. President Obama did not believe the Iranians. He was the person who initiated the building of bunker buster bombs. At the time that the plan was signed, it was the only option available to the USA to slow the Iranians down.
  7. Your attack reflects ignorance. Some of us have had proper educations and/or are well read. You neither liberated me, nor my nation. Obviously you are trying to antagonize and to provoke. The free world was fighting the nazis starting in Spain in 1936. The USA did not show up until 1942, and then it came only because of Pearl Harbor. Until then, the USA was content to profit from the war.
  8. When did engineers study the atmosphere or the relationship between photosynthesis and carbon uptake, or organic chemistry? What type of engineer? Some people who drive trains call themselves an engineer. Others who collect trash are sanitation engineers. There are many types of professional engineers. They can be civil or mechanical or chemical or software. so which one are you? Chemical and Biomedical engineers tend to be rather proud of their education (and rightly so) and will typically differentiate themselves from the generic civil engineers. So, what in your curriculum of training prepared you for an assessment of atmospheric analysis? Are you building walkways between the clouds?
  9. A non event, and hardly serious. it does not rate a mention in most tourist towns. On any given day, even in Hua Hin, there is some jerk doing similar, and more often than not it is a European (including Russian). They just don't get written up as is the sport in Pattaya.
  10. Are you upset that iran can no longer provide Russian with drones and missiles?
  11. You are pushing your own bias and imaginations on to people. The reason why the procedure is done at an early age is because the amount of skin removed is relatively small 1 cm or less and the recovery is fast. The people who are so vocal in their opposition are typically European and are often people with fetishes or emotional instability. Normal people do not obsess over a penis foreskin and they certainly do not invent false "information" to support their claims as many of the fetishists seem to do. The procedure has been around since the dawn of time, and has variations. The common practice amongst multiple different cultures, and the billions of people who are circumcised who are doing ok does suggest there was a shared benefit. They don't need some angry European telling them how to live their lives. If Jesus, and Nelson Mandela were ok, then take the hint not to meddle in other people's genitalia.
  12. Yes I have. It is not a long judgement and can easily be read in 10 minutes. In my original reply I did quote key parts of the judgement. I even provided a link. The court's opinion is not a ruling on gender reassignment. It is a ruling on whether or not the 14th amendment was violated by the TN law. The takaway is that a state can determine what medical treatments can or cannot be administered, which is why I believe Libertarians can be expected to be having fits. It is an example of Big Government reaching into people's daily lives.
  13. A large number of German immigrants most certainly were. The German American Bund was holding rallies in many US cities. The largest was the infamous Madison Square Gardens rally, which had 20,000 in attendance. Huge for the era. The Bund was openly pro-Nazi and engaged in political activities that were anti American. One of the more notorious events was the attack on the German language New Yorker Staats-Zeitung .Their demands included more pro-Nazi articles and more articles denouncing western European democracies. The Bund attempted to take control of multiple German American organizations. Its downfall came when when Socialists and patriotic ethnic Germans participated in a campaign against the Bund. The Bund was eventually undone because of its internal corruption. Revisionist historians would have us believe that the American German community was wholly opposed to the Nazis, when that was not the case. The people who were opposed are those who had fled German persecution and wanted nothing to do with the Germany of old; the Mennonites and other Christians, Jews, and socialists. Most 3rd and older generation Americans who had German heritage, did not consider themselves German, but American and were not interested in the Bund and its hate. The ethnic German socialists were some of the USA's most patriotic and they rallied against the Bund. However, there were still tens of thousands of nazi supporters who had to be dealt with in WWII.
  14. Perhaps, the Israelis, stand out for some, because some people wish to confirm their prejudice? Is it any different than the Africans being stereotyped as drug pushers and thieves. A couple of my Thai friends refer to opportunistic thieves as "Nigeria", as in watch your bag, because there are Nigeria (sic). Not fair and inaccurate. Particularly when there are no Nigerians let alone black people where we are and the thieves at our local beach are usually Europeans.
  15. Where are the "retarded aussies" in the reports? I don't believe that the Australians are the people doing wheelies in Pattaya, kicking doctors, stabbing people, running scam call centers, selling yaba or thieving from other visitors. Sometimes the Australian visitors over indulge and are given to hijinks. They are mostly harmless and are manageable. For the most part, they are like Nordic visitors in their treatment of the locals, leaning to kindness and civility. When is the last time you ever saw an Australian screaming or berating a local server in a restaurant, or complaining about the heat or a few insects buzzing about as others do?
  16. Alot of trouble? Do you have any data to support your claim or are you just biased. A review of the stories, for the past month featured, English, American, Russian Swedish, French,German and Chinese offenders.
  17. There is a way to do this. I don't think it is allowed for one to explain how.
  18. Oh look, another person who can not comprehend basic science.
  19. The Iranian regime has been opposed to the UK and USA since the mullahs took over. Jewish colonial project? Jews have always been in Israel. Jews come from the region of Judea. You are blaming the UK now. What do you think Turkey was doing occupying the Middle East? The UK and France filled the power vacuum after the Turkish Empire collapsed. Why are you fixated on Israel? You do know that the same process that recognized Israel created Jordan, Lebanon and Saudi Arabia. It also recognized the borders of Egypt, Syria and Iraq. If Israel is a colonial project started by Egypt, then every country in an land previously dominated by the UK is not legitimate. That means that the USA is not a legitimate nation.
  20. Nonsense. That's Schumer trying to get some political traction.The limited action was withing the powers of the President. There was no war declaration. How many times does it have to be repeated that Iran did not consider the agreement as a limitation on its pursuit of nuclear arms? The Iranian leadership stated that within a week of the agreement. Pakistan has nominated the President for the Nobel Peace Prie for his work in defusing the India Pakistan war. They were already backing Iran. No. Iran and Hamas launched their attack to block the peace agreement between Saudi Arabia and Israel that was in the works.
  21. More nonsense from you. Iran was instrumental in propping up the Assad regime - Approx. 650,000 dead 14 million refugees. Iran supports Houthis and was instrumental in civil war - Approx. 250,000 dead 2 million refugees Iran supports Hezbollah as a state within Lebanon and has tried to overthrow the Lebanese government Depending upon when one starts the meter, tens of thousands dead, and hundreds of thousand refugees. Iran proxy tried to overthrow Bahrain government. Iran backed militants tried to sabotage UAE Iran backed Shiite militias have tried to continue a civil war. Iran backed Hamas and its terrorism. Iran has tried to assassinate Trump Iran is pledged to the destruction of the UK Iran is pledged to the destruction of the USA. Tell us again how only Israel has a problem with Iran.
  22. Get a grip. This was a limited target specific event. Nuclear risks were reduced.
  23. Do you have any data to support your statement? The data I see shows an increase in both foreign residents and tourist visitors. In respect to foreign residents; As a hub for intraregional migration and main destination country in Southeast Asia, Thailand hosts at least 5.3 million non-Thai nationals, marking an 8 per cent increase compared to nearly 4.9 million non-Thai population as indicated in the last report. 2024 data from https://www.who.int/thailand/news/feature-stories/detail/thailand-migration-report-2024#:~:text=As a hub for intraregional,indicated in the last report. Perhaps some foreigners with marginal incomes, or in ill health or who cannot satisfy the visa requirements have departed. They have been replaced by other people who can.
  24. Another wind up from a newly minted name.
  25. Come back and lecture me when you have read the ruling.It is obvious that you have not.
