  1. You failed to mention the comment with massive likes calling Jews rats, just as Hitler did. You're not fooling anyone. I won't post there. As maybe you don't know, posting any kind of comment on a person's channel helps the content creator's rating. No thanks.
  2. I watch a lot of youtube channels and I won't be subscribing to that one. The word dreck comes to mind.
  3. Maybe a new separate forum is called for on aseannow? Something like I hate Israel and I hate Jews forum?
  4. Just how many of these let's try to make people hate Israelis topics are really needed here? BTW -- It wasn't only about Israelis. That was for clickbait -- no Jews, no news. A major part was about a Brazilian lady. To add -- it's always "interesting" to look at the comments on such videos. Full of vile extremist Jew hating stuff. These Israeli topics always rile up the Jew haters. They feel it's open season on Jews these days.
  5. I doubt that actually but based on your obsessive about demonizing Jews and considering them a monolith posting history, I'm not surprised that you think that.
  6. It isn't. I don't have power. Trump has massive power. My emotional age whatever it is is totally irrelevant.
  7. I passed through Pai many years ago for a lunch break. It did look pretty. All this fear mongering talk about how those inscrutable Israelis are taking over and destroying the places makes me feel like going an extended visit!
  8. Your opinion seems to be it's not OK to have a bad opinion of Mr. Trump. That is dumb. The topic isn't about people with bad opinions of Mr. Trump. It's about the perceived emotional age of him. What do you consider it to be?
  9. Trump is the most powerful man in the world.If you don't have an opinion good or bad about him, you're a flippin ostrich.
  10. OK, objectively Mr. Trump is a long in the tooth old man of age seventy-nine. But he sure doesn't behave like a normal mature man! Well, except for the obviously rapidly creeping symptoms of dementia. Personally, I have considered him emotionally as a toddler. But this video references the legendary (deceased) traditional conservative political commentator Charles Krauthamer. He had originally judged Mr. Trump to be like an eleven year old but later adjusted his age to only one. One is basically still a baby so not quite the toddler age I've been considering him. Well technically toddlers are from age one to three, but when I think of Trump's toddler persona I'm picturing more like two or three. As an aside, Charles Krauthamer happened to be among the conservative thinkers that I greatly admired. Remember the days when people could have respect for people across political lines? Oh well.
  11. Tim Newton thoroughly describes Barry Kenyon's uniquely valuable and completely irreplaceable talent better than my attempt.
  12. The reporting so far is vague. I hope there is followup about this. What happened to the driver?
  13. I know very little about Starmer but a box of cockroaches would be better than those other three.
  14. I don’t recall of a local story before of a pedestrian being killed or even just hit by a motorcycle while standing on a raised median strip. For those that don't know those strips on Tappraya Road in Jomtien are adequately wide and as said elevated from the road level. I remember what it was like crossing that two way road before they installed the median strips. Time to stand sideways and hold in stomach to be narrower. Very scary.
  15. I don't believe in treating any group as a monolith.
  16. Many of the Israelis ARE Russians.
  17. Israel 2025 government grants and benefits for new Olim www.welcome-israel.com/blog/government-grants-and-benefits-for-new-olim-in-2025
  18. I didn't know him but I think I did talk to him a few times at Jomtien immigration without knowing who he was. I did "know" him based on his writing for the Pattaya Mail. There was no other writer coming even close to him in quality and intelligent perception about expat and immigration matters at least locally and possibly all of Thailand. His loss in that regard leaves a vacuum which won't ever be filled as he was a unique treasure. Cringe cliche but they broke the mold fits. The way he died is truly shocking and disturbing. Yes I think we all realize that crossing a road in this area (or much of urban Thailand) means risking your life every time. But the way I read it he was standing on the median strip (a "safe" area)! It's one thing being defensive while literally on a road but people are generally feeling complacent standing on raised barrier or sidewalk/foot path. Could he have saved himself by dodging that motorcycle bullet if he had been feeling in any danger standing there? Impossible to know and probably not likely as it hit him at speed. But if there is anything, anything at all, of any value to come from this tragedy, I suggest that people stop feeling complacent in such situations. With that, at least you'd have a chance. RIP to clearly one of the most honorable, decent, and valuable to the community expats to have ever lived in Thailand.
  19. Political motivation 100 percent the FACT.
  20. His lies are about his persistent efforts to spread the lie that national bans on Israelis has anything at all to do with tourist behavior.
  21. Completely biased video from a completely biased channel. Note that video on youtube is loaded with hate speech. For example, the cheering on a beach. It was about a terrorist leader! Why wouldn't people cheer that?!?
  22. <removed> Restaurant policies are one thing. National policies are completely different. Again it is a FACT that no nation in the world has put on a ban on all Israelis entering because of bad behavior of Israeli tourists. You persistently try to spread the big lie about that.
  23. But you don't want Israel as a Jewish majority sovereign nation state to exist in any borders, correct?
  24. Throwing light on your obsessive hatred more like. No country has banned Israeli tourists over bad tourist behavior. The bans that do exist are all political.
