Who'd want to be straight in bed? So boring. You're responding to.a sleazy specious straight man post.

That's another lie. Israel does take out enemies abroad such as terrorists and more controversially Iranian nuclear scientists. Not just for calling them out.

Straw man garbage! The discussion wasn't about the west bank. It was about how it is very possible for an Arab Israeli to travel to Thailand n

Maybe willful ignorance.

It's an irrelevant loaded question. Israel exists as a sovereign state and as any sovereign state has the right to exist. The Arabs in the region aspire to a sovereign state but probably a majority want that state to include all of Israel. They have a right of course to move towards a separate state. They don't have a right to abolish Israel. Consider the Kurds. I support their aspirations to have a Kurdistan nation. But as realpolitik stands they dont literally have a right to that.

You being sleazy of course. You just conflated Arab Israeli citizens with Arabs in.the west bank and Gaza! STOP LYING.

Wild exaggeration as usual.

Druze very much so. Otherwise a very small percentage of the rest. I can't blame them at all.for not wanting to serve. Many Jews who have no choices wouldn't either if they had a choice.

You lot? There you go again with your hateful Jews are a monolith idiocy. I didn't say the situation.was just. I only stated the realpolitik on the ground as it has historically developed.

I didn't answer before because I considered it yet another troll bait question. But I think someone else asked, so here goes. It is not a yes/no thing, as explained below. I have stated my opposition to Netanyahu and far right Israeli politicians' countless times over the years. I have been in favor of a two state solution since I was a little boy learning about the conflict. HOWEVER, the way things have developed over the decades, it's become more clear that just supporting a two state solution isn't nearly enough. Talking about the west bank settlements but many other things that have happened as well. There is no trust between vast majorities on both sides. Israel even if they had the political will to expel the west bank settlers, would not accept this without very robust security guarantees and that would mean control over the Arab state government that would not be acceptable to any sovereign state. I do understand the reasons that many nations are now recognizing the State of Palestine before it is anything actually viable. I understand that they think they're helping and that they're punishing the Israelis. That's debatable. But back to reality on the ground -- A Palestinian state won't ever be viable unless it involves Israel recognizing it as well. We're very far from that.

More like the ideology of the origins of Zionism (which was POLITICAL) is believing in the need for a national homeland for the Jewish people for the survival of a Jewish people. A people with a VERY TINY population in the world who have experienced persecution for thousands of years in the diaspora. I'm not suggesting that you or anyone else AGREE with that ideology. I am suggesting that you should stop lying about what the ideology is based on.

I find your post SLEAZY. Arab Israelis have the same rights to apply for passports as Jewish Israelis. On the businesses point, sounds like you're talking out of your arse. Also, if true, that wouldn't mean that no Arab Israelis have the means to travel. Yes we know they're not required to serve in the IDF, but they can do so if they choose. Even more hilarious coming from you as several times you have whined when complaining about Israelis in Thailand, that NO you're not talking about Jews because of course many Arabs are Israelis too. So which is it now? Whatever is convenient at the moment for your obessive and vicious trash Israel agenda I suppose. I wasn't joking because I hadn't noticed the news giving further detail on his identity. Cheers snookums.

Well things will never be the same, that's for sure.

Decent people should avoid visiting the USA these days unless and until the maga fascist regime is thrown on the dustbin of history. That said, a commentator that I respect has said even in the best case scenario where that happens it will take perhaps 40 years to undo the damage.

Kremlin propaganda says the exact same things.

Troll bait

Then you've lost all connection with reality. No surprise.

No it was not.

I remember during the dark Covid times here there were many food giveaway events, often sponsored by f-rangs. One time I was carrying a big bag of groceries home and I passed such a queue and a Thai guy humorously asked me if I had won the lottery. Ouch!

No it isn't at all. Normal criticism of a country is one thing. Justified for probably most nations and definitely to Israel as well. Obsessing about why they should have never existed at all and don't deserve to exist now is very extreme.

So sorry for your pain but Israel does exist and they're not going anywhere to please the wims of obsessive haters. No problem at all with criticizing policies. But you go much much further. For example I don't like today's Hungary. I want them to change. I don't want there to be no Hungary.

Look it up yourself!

So you want Israel to not exist. Just like Iran. Just like Hamas terrorists. This is so typical of Israel haters. You can be against a regime for political reasons, but for some very perverted reason enemies of Israel don't even accept it's right to exist.

Yes. There is no connection whatsoever.

At least Ukraine has learned by now that Trump is on Putin's side.
