  1. IDF's operations have uncovered a lot of internal Hamas information, including:

    The official documents of Hamas's "rulebook" reveal brutal behavior against anyone suspected of belonging to the LGBTQ community. 

     

    Additionally, documentation of interrogations and testimonies about aggressive questioning focused solely on sexual preferences and orientations was found, indicating that those suspected of being part of the LGBTQ community faced a single fate – death.

  2. Thai law doesn't allow for any sort of personal trust.  However, I want to leave a sum of money in my will for the benefit of a person of limited mental capacity.  If I were doing this through my UK will I would create a trust with that will.  If I included similar trust wording in a Thai will, would it be recognised/valid? Anyone know?

     

    And if not possible, what alternatives are open to me?

     

    Thanks

    "America" was the official name of Adolph Hitler's personal train!

     

    I didn't know that (thought technically it was called "Amerika*" with a "k" - probably should have been with three k's in keeping with ideology).  Here are some details about Hitler's Führersonderzug.

    * Amerika was also Franz Kafka's first (and incomplete) novel.  A pretty good read IMHO.
     

  4. The site appears to be the work of the notorious youtuber "Dr." John Campbell.  (The "Dr" is in quotes because he doesn't have the medical qualification - he's got a Ph.D. in education from the highly esteemed University of Bolton.)  To quote from Wikipedia:

    "He has been criticised for suggesting COVID-19 deaths have been over-counted, repeating false claims about the use of ivermectin as a COVID-19 treatment, and providing misleading commentary about the safety of COVID-19 vaccines."

     

    In other words, a total nutjob.

    Sorry, I cannot answer your question, but I have a comment and a related question.

     

    Comment - in some countries, such as Australia, a marriage or a divorce invalidates any existing will in that country.

     

    Question - if I married in Thailand, would that automatically invalidate my Australian will?

     

    If the marriage is recognised under Australian law, the rules about will revocation due to marriage would apply.

    Pure wildly generalized pejorative assumptions.


    Yet in the face of such statistics as:

     

    "Muslims face some of the lowest employment rates and lowest earnings of any group in Britain"

     

    "Muslim women have particularly low rates of economic activity and there is a high incidence of household poverty, which reaches 50% for Muslim households compared with a national average of around 18%"

     

    "in the case of poverty, statistical analysis shows that the proportion of households in poverty was 16 points higher among Muslims compared with Anglicans of the same age, generational status, educational level, marital status and region of residence in Britain"


    "levels of economic activity for women aged 19-60 (excluding full-time students) were 31% for Pakistani women and 21% for Bangladeshi women ...  and 77% for White women"

     

    it's clearly not "wildly generalized (sic) pejorative assumptions."
