Chris Hedges? I thought we're talking about views that aren't biased. As for 10% it's nonsense, and accordingly you do not support it with anything. No part of history of the nations mentioned had anything to do with the countries and continents they went to. Israel is a different case.

More of your inflammatory speech. 'Animals'? Who said that other than you? Did I? No. Are there any limits to how low you will go? Shameless. Let's make this short - do you see anything wrong with a terrorist organization carrying out an attack involving the deliberate murder of civilians? Rape of women? Hostage taking? Do you have any issues with this terrorist organization using the people under its rule as a shield? Referencing their death as necessary sacrifices? With that terrorist organization denying safety and food for these people, yet caring for its own? Or maybe you're alright with the same outfit prolonging things, at the expense of civilian deaths, so that they could score more political points? You do not speak for 'us'. You're a biased poster who tried a sham of balance, but keeps failing at it time and again. Froth coming out whenever your arguments are exposed as baseless nonsense. I do not revel in the death of Gazan civilians. I'm also not willfully ignorant of what war under such conditions entails. You seem to think that there's a way for wars to be fought without this. You're pretty much out on your own there.

What's important for you is, apparently, to chop my posts into small bits, so that you can address then out of context while ignoring the message. It's something you do. It's how you roll. Dishonest. Your claim was that if there are but a 100 Hamas supporters left, the war will continue. I pointed out this was not the case before the war, and it is not the case now. You cannot address that, so you deflect. There was no occupation of the Gaza Strip. Nothing like the death and destruction on offer now. You think there are many Gazans who would object going back to that? Or are you that invested in the Hamas's 'resistance' narrative that you lost your way? People like me? I post often enough that I see the Israeli occupation as wrong. That them illegal settlements in the West Bank are a blight and an obstacle to peace. Any other bogus personal nonsense you want to shame yourself with?

You're getting desperate. Moving the goalposts, deflecting, obfuscating. If Israel was as bent as you claim on driving the Gazans away, or killing them - there wouldn't be a 'so far'.

The reason is that you have issues with Israel. Possessing more arms is not a thing. It doesn't imply right or wrong. Same goes for money. Saudi Arabia got lots of money - is it righteous? The other side can't do much? Tell that to people who died on 7/10. Tell them to all the Israelis that died in terrorist attacks over the years. Suddenly all them thousands of rockets are 'not much', 'low tech'....basically a non-threat in your narrative. I'm sure some of you lot would like to see Hamas having fighter jets.

@ozimoron Are you sure you want to go there? Because a whole lot of the modern day Palestinians aren't originally 'Palestinian' either. Surnames, family connections don't lie.

Yeah, not much interested in your conspiracy theory ramblings. What it is, is you objecting to Jews having a country (that's what Zionism is about, not your 'cult' garbage). Your issues are with Jews, spin it however you want.

I see him more as an opportunist, invested above all else in himself and his political survival, hanging to power - than as someone who strongly believes in any ideology. Sure, he's right-wing and all that, but he's not actually into the hardcore stuff. Not that he cares or likes the Palestinians, but I don't think he actually hates them. That's something more associated with his coalition partners. Being politically weak and dependent on them, he goes along with or does not resist them. In a way, that's evil as well - but not quite the active 'monster' some portray. All things considered, he's probably more a danger to Israel than to the Palestinians.

@ozimoron Oh, I'm not on 'ignore' then? Hard to trust you guys.... I was not referring to the hollow blanket statement you issued. But to your posts on related topics. You do not express much issues with Palestinian nationalism. Just Israel, again.

Slim or 'antiquated evidence, how?

@ozimoron More pointless 'stories'. Tell the one about the sea-cadets. That was fun.

You don't decide who's a Jew. Jewish religion actually goes against your 'book' on this. The rest of your 'historical' narrative is full of false facts, inaccuracies and fantasies. Lush forests? A whole lot of it is arid. Antisemitism is nonsense? As in nothing to see here? Move along? That old bit about 'semites' was done to death on these topics. Nobody actually refers to anyone but Jews when using it. May want to read up on where the term came from. You seem to have no idea about Arab violence during the British Mandate time, or maybe you're just ignoring it. You conspiracy theories (which you cannot and will not support) about 'paid off' or 'compromised' are just the handy tool when you got nothing. Same for you 'infiltrated' rhetoric. Zionists signed peace agreements with neighboring Arab countries, and do nothing much about the 20% strong Arab minority within Israel. You are what you say is 'nonsense' - an antisemite.

Oh, I see. It's only 'religious' when they do it. Gotcha.

All the more amusing/pathetic when they do reply....

No need to overthink it. Try another branch, another bank and you may get a totally different answer. IO is the same, just not as easy to change. It is possible to sort these things at the Bangkok Bank head office in Bangkok (from my experience), but might not be worth the trouble, especially if you have to deal with the same person in the future.

Here's what you posted: Attempts to spin the Ram Mandir issue as not being 'religious' or as coming from the 'left-wing' would be interesting to watch.

@thaibeachlovers The Saudis seem like they are interested in going back to the normalization path with Israel. Less demands now. And other than in your posts - was there anything said about troops sent to Yemen?

Spin it as much as you like, the Ram Mandir is not a left-wing thing. Grassroots is a cute word. RSS, Shiv Sena....not lefties. Your comment on Homophobia doesn't really say much, nor supports your previous comment, just repeats it.

It was pointed out and discussed. The Uganda Judge, by the way, was the only one (including the Israeli representative, even) that rejected all of South Africa's points.

I agree with the former, but not the latter. There were such views aired here - but not really by most of the regular participants. What @retarius is trying to do is tar everyone not seeing things his way as extremist. Given his own extreme views, this covers a whole lot of ground....

@ozimoron Don't see you objecting much to Palestinian nationalistic sentiments on these topics.

@retarius You insist on using 'Jews', then claim you're not antisemitic. Well now. As for 'murder' that would imply intent. You cannot demonstrate that. You do not bother to. Regarding 'sub human' that's the kind of rhetoric people holding opinions such as yours would use, I don't think it was much in evidence on the posts your rile against. Projecting much?

I doubt you could explain how or why.

@retarius Said the antisemite poster..... You lot seem to be obsessed with the' ignore' thing.

That's just you being disingenuous, again. People die in wars. All the time. All over the world. It's not the same as intentionally targeting civilians. There was nothing said about 'coincidence' other than by you. Again deflecting when you fail to support your comments.
