That's laughable. You are suggesting the Jewish Chronicle is evidence of anything. Even the writers have said it's propaganda https://www.thetimes.com/uk/media/article/columnists-quit-jewish-chronicle-over-inaccurate-articles-vq068d8gj About the Jewish Chronicle; The JC has faced criticism for its editorial stance, particularly allegations of a pro-Israel bias. In September 2024, the newspaper published articles by freelance journalist Elon Perry, which were later found to be based on fabricated information. One such article falsely claimed that Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar planned to escape Gaza with Israeli hostages, a narrative that aligned with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's positions. Following these revelations, prominent columnists, including Jonathan Freedland, David Aaronovitch, Hadley Freeman, and David Baddiel, resigned, citing concerns over the JC's journalistic standards and perceived partisan reporting. Regulatory Scrutiny The Independent Press Standards Organisation (IPSO) has recorded multiple breaches of the Editors' Code by the JC, including issues related to accuracy and prompt correction of errors. Between 2018 and 2021, the JC either broke the law or breached the Code approximately once in every four editions, leading to calls for a standards investigation to address systemic failures in editorial practices.

Yea sure...... The claims made against B’Tselem reflect attempts to discredit the organization without engaging with the substance of its work. These allegations are based on flawed logic, misrepresentation, and an unwillingness to confront the realities of Israeli policies in the occupied Palestinian territories. Below, I address each claim with facts and strong reasoning to support B’Tselem’s legitimacy. 1. Claim: B’Tselem Promotes Artificial Definitions of Apartheid Reality of Apartheid: B’Tselem, along with numerous international organizations like Human Rights Watch (HRW) and Amnesty International, employs the internationally accepted legal definition of apartheid as outlined in the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court and the 1973 International Convention on the Suppression and Punishment of the Crime of Apartheid. This includes policies and practices designed to maintain domination by one racial or ethnic group over another, which is evident in Israel’s control over the West Bank, Gaza, and its discriminatory laws favoring Jewish citizens. B’Tselem’s 2021 report, “A Regime of Jewish Supremacy from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea: This Is Apartheid,” meticulously documents systemic inequalities, including restrictions on movement, land use, and political participation for Palestinians. Support from Legal Experts: The apartheid designation has been supported by prominent legal scholars, including former UN Special Rapporteur on Palestine Richard Falk and John Dugard, both of whom were instrumental in defining apartheid in international law. Not a New Claim: The use of "apartheid" to describe Israel’s policies is not manufactured by NGOs. South African leaders, including Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Nelson Mandela, have drawn similar parallels based on firsthand knowledge of apartheid systems. 2. Claim: B’Tselem Challenges Israel’s Legitimacy Focus on Human Rights: B’Tselem’s work is rooted in documenting violations of international law and human rights abuses in the occupied territories, not in questioning Israel’s legitimacy. Their reports detail actions such as land confiscation, house demolitions, and settler violence, which are violations of international law. Accusing B’Tselem of anti-Zionism is a diversion from addressing the documented human rights abuses it highlights. Legitimate Critique vs. Delegitimization: Critiquing a state’s policies is not equivalent to denying its right to exist. The use of terms like “Jewish supremacy” is not anti-Zionist but descriptive of the discriminatory framework in which Israeli law privileges Jewish identity over Palestinian rights. Universal Standards: B’Tselem holds Israel accountable under the same legal and moral frameworks applied to all states. This is not delegitimization but a demand for adherence to international law and equality. 3. Claim: B’Tselem Promotes a One-State Agenda Focus on Justice, Not State Structure: B’Tselem has not explicitly advocated for a one-state or two-state solution. Instead, it focuses on ensuring human rights and equality for all people under Israeli control, regardless of the political framework. End of Occupation: The suggestion that advocating for human rights and equality implies the “replacement of Israel” misrepresents B’Tselem’s position. The organization calls for an end to the occupation and a regime of systemic discrimination, which is consistent with international norms and UN resolutions. Global Support: B’Tselem’s positions are echoed by numerous Israeli and international organizations that reject the conflation of human rights advocacy with anti-Zionism or the erasure of Israel. Criticizing Israel’s policies is not a call to dismantle the state but a demand for justice and adherence to the principles of equality and non-discrimination. Conclusion: B’Tselem’s Credibility and Legitimacy B’Tselem’s work is backed by extensive documentation, legal analysis, and international standards, making it a vital voice in exposing human rights abuses. The accusations against B’Tselem are attempts to silence dissent and shield Israel from accountability, not legitimate critiques of its methodologies or findings. Upholding human rights and equality, as B’Tselem does, is not a threat to Israel’s existence but a call to realize a future where all people under its control—Jewish and Palestinian alike—can live with dignity and freedom.

Thanks for bringing up Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur, Genocide Expert. Let's hear what she actually has to say rather than only your personal opinion smear against her.

Netanyahu Seeks Israeli Taxpayer Funds to Boost Son's Security in Miami On the sun-soaked boulevards of Miami-Dade and Broward counties, where luxury apartments and high-end clubs define the skyline, one resident, Yair Netanyahu, far from war, is loafing in luxe south Florida digs, and has become a focal point of an international controversy. Yair Netanyahu, son of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel, has been living in the area since last year, and his extended stay has ignited something of a firestorm back home. The temperature ratcheted up a few notches with his father's recent request for increased security for the 33-year-old, paid for by Israeli taxpayers. Yair Netanyahu has been protected by the Shin Bet, AKA the Israel Security Agency (ISA), the equivalent of the Central Intelligence Agency in the U.S. The estimated annual cost: 2.5 million shekels — nearly $700,000 in the U.S. There are two Shin Bet security guards with Netanyahu whenever he leaves his home. The costs incurred so far cover accommodation and food for the guards, a car and driver, and paying for an additional local security guard. The cited amount does not include the additional cost of the Shin Bet staff salaries or paying to fly them to and from Israel, the unsourced report said. The guards are switched every two to three weeks. Funding was transferred from the Prime Minister’s Office to the Foreign Ministry and from there to the Israeli consulate in Miami, which has forked out for most of the expenses. A source familiar with the arrangements said that security for Yair Netanyahu costs more when he is abroad. “Miami is an expensive destination,” This protection, provided despite Yair's life far from the front lines of Israel's current war against Hamas, has raised eyebrows and sparked outrage among Israelis, many of whom are experiencing the ongoing conflict firsthand. Yair, meanwhile, has been keeping a low profile in South Florida, retreating from the public eye and mostly avoiding the paparazzi who regularly stake out his luxury apartment in Hallandale Beach (a recent scare notwithstanding). The unit occupied by Netanyahu costs $5,000 per month, though it is not clear who is footing the bill. The complex has tennis courts, a spa, a game lounge, a private cinema, a wine cellar, and a cigar room. Yair in particular has been accused of living the life of a spoiled dauphin who spends most of his time on social media attacking his father’s critics, drawing both flak and legal trouble. A spokesperson for the Netanyahu family said, “It’s clear this is an agenda-driven political hit piece aimed at tarnishing Israel’s rightwing prime minister during wartime by attacking his family.” The younger Netanyahu is known for his far-right views and combative social media presence, which has landed him in court on a number of occasions. His public prominence has risen amid widespread reports that he has been influencing his father’s policies. He has been sued multiple times and ordered to pay out hundreds of thousands of shekels in compensation. Shortly after the October 7 massacre, Netanyahu shared posts blaming security services for failures that led to the attack, including one claiming that IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi knew of the coming assault but didn’t tell the prime minister as part of a military coup. Netanyahu spent most of 2023 in the US and before October 7 was hoping to gain a Green Card, according to Hebrew media reports. After the attack, he stayed in the US but, amid criticism, eventually flew back to volunteer with the United Hatzala first responder organization, reportedly manning telephones during a fundraiser at the end of November. By mid-January he was back in the US, apparently staying at the Miami condo. Netanyahu cannot work in the US as he is on a tourist visa. A US tourist visa, also known as a B-2 visa, is typically valid for up to 10 years, but the maximum stay per entry is 180 days. In January last year, before Yair Netanyahu had left Israel, then Foreign Minister Eli Cohen instructed that he be given a diplomatic passport. According to regulations, the children of a prime minister are only entitled to a diplomatic passport while they are still minors. Netanyahu left Israel amid reports he was banned by his father from posting on social media for inflaming tensions in Israel, exacerbating a diplomatic rift with the United States. In September, US immigration lawyer Michael Wildes posted that Netanyahu had become a client of his firm, which would represent the prime minister’s son on his “international matters.” An unnamed source quoted Yair Netanyahu as saying he wants to move to the US and legally work there but was concerned the plan may be torpedoed because the Biden administration is “not the best of friends.” an unnamed source quoting Yair Netanyahu as saying he wants to move to the US and legally work there but was concerned the plan may be torpedoed because the Biden administration is “not the best of friends.” Netanyahu reportedly made the remarks at a June wedding in London of a family that donates to his father. He denied the report. In June, at a court hearing to obtain a restraining order against an anti-government protester, Netanyahu’s legal representative said that his client “does not intend to return to the country in the near future,” Hebrew media reported. Note - Yair seems to be an Israeli draft dodger not doing mandatory service in the IDF. The State of Israel requires every Israeli citizen over the age of 18 who is Jewish, Druze or Circassian to serve in the Israel Defense Forces. Once enlisted, men are expected to serve for a minimum of 32 months and women are expected to serve for a minimum of 24 months. https://www.miaminewtimes.com/news/miami-security-boosted-for-israeli-yair-netanyahu-21164646 https://www.timesofisrael.com/far-from-war-yair-netanyahu-peeped-loafing-in-luxe-south-florida-digs/

For over a year, Israel has been waging an unrestrained war on the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip, the West Bank and within the State of Israel. The indiscriminate violence that has always marked the Israeli apartheid regime’s approach to Palestinians living in the area under its control is now appearing in its most direct and exposed form. While Israel wreaked death and destruction on Gaza in unimaginable proportions, a record number of Palestinians were killed by Israeli fire in the West Bank in 2024, and the number of detentions and administrative detainees also reached a historic high. Since the war began, many attacks on Palestinians by soldiers and settlers have been documented throughout the West Bank. These attacks are aimed at Palestinians suspected of no wrongdoing and are often carried out in plain sight, in full view of officers and commanders. http://www.btselem.org/publications/202412_unleashed

Attacking the messenger Bkk Brian. The oldest most prestigious newspaper in Israeli which was recently cut off from government sources in retaliation for reporting facts rather than only IOF propaganda. The publisher even had the guts to correctly label the Palestinian resistance as "freedom fighters"

ABOUT THE OXFORD UNION SOCIETY: The Oxford Union is the world's most prestigious debating society, with an unparalleled reputation for bringing international guests and speakers to Oxford. Since 1823, the Union has been promoting debate and discussion not just in Oxford University, but across the globe. Susan Abulhawa speaks in proposition of the motion that This House Believes Israel is an Apartheid State Responsible for Genocide This is the seventh speaker of eight. The Oxford Union is deeply grateful and encouraged by the messages of support in response to our determination to uphold free speech. During our 200 year history, many have tried to shut us down. As the effects of self-imposed censorship on university campuses, social media and the arts show no signs of dissipating, the importance of upholding free speech remains as critical today as it did when we were founded in 1823. Your support is critical in enabling The Oxford Union to continue its mission without interruption and without interference. https://youtu.be/nW5U_ZqGmZU?si=J3KrLpPO0glMUk9F

Amnesty International’s research has found sufficient basis to conclude that the government of Israel has committed and is continuing to commit genocide against Palestinians in the occupied Gaza Strip. In the landmark report, ‘You Feel Like You Are Subhuman’: Israel’s Genocide Against Palestinians in Gaza, Amnesty International documents how, during its military offensive launched in the wake of the deadly Hamas-led attacks in southern Israel on October 7, 2023, Israeli forces have carried out acts prohibited under the Genocide Convention, with the specific intent to destroy Palestinians in Gaza. Israeli forces have caused unprecedented destruction, at a level and speed not seen in any other conflict in the 21st century, leveling entire cities and destroying critical infrastructure, agricultural land and cultural and religious sites, rendering large swathes of Gaza uninhabitable. get the full report here: https://www.amnestyusa.org/reports/you-feel-like-you-are-subhuman-israels-genocide-against-palestinians-in-gaza/

A Rabbi owns PornHub. So, drug dealing is not surprising. https://thejewishindependent.com.au/a-rabbi-is-overseeing-pornhub-thats-actually-not-so-weird

There are over one million dog bites in Thailand each year. It's totally out of control and the stray dogs need to be reduced in number. Indonesia had a similar problem and an outbreak of rabies. The government launched a program to exterminate stray dogs. It worked. In the meantime, carry a walking stick or pepper spray at all times.

Did they check the short time bars? Soi 6 in Pattaya? Happens all the time. Was he supposed to meet up with a fat Aussie wife or gf in Phuket? That would explain his disappearance. 🤣🙏🏼

I have hundreds of Jewish friends and they are disgusted and horrified by the Zionist, apartheid, and ethnic cleansing policies and actions of the extremist Israeli government. You obviously know little to nothing about the history and reality of the situation.
