  1. I have no plans to ever return to the USA. I've lived in Thailand for over 20 years now and hope it will be another 20. But I doubt that I'd be 99 years old since then. 😄
  2. Good for him. It's about time that some Western country has stepped up to try to prevent Israel from completely taking over what's left of Palestine. 🖕
  3. Arrest him, try him for animal cruelty, and then put him in jail for a year or so... 😡
  4. AP have just lost their appeal re Gulf of Mexico What a sad decline to a once great nation @Will B GoodWhen I read your remarks above, I thought the last sentence meant the "sad decline" was exemplified by these attacks on the press. However, the photo on your profile seems to imply that you are a Trump supporter, so maybe the last sentence means the decline is exemplified by the objectionable actions of the press. Which is it? 🤔
  5. Find the man and lock him up for at least a year. 😡
  6. Count me in with the 28 nations demanding an immediate ceasefire! 😡
  7. You'd need at least AUD$50,000 or be able to do monthly deposits into a Thai bank of at least AUD$3,100 in a Thai bank.
  8. I don't think there is any way to do this without going down in person to the Land Office.
  9. It's been rumored that one of the demands Putin has made to Trump concerning an end to this conflict would be a return of Alaska to Russia. I've heard Trump is considering it and trying to negotiate a big, beautiful sale price with him. 😁
  10. I hope this helps take him down, but his association with Epstein is not the most important issue for me. That is the way he's running the country. I do hope his MAGA supporters take a good look at him and his associates, and vote for Democrats in the mid-term elections because of his values and actions, but his proven sexual deviancy and obvious pedophilia should also be taken into consideration.
  11. Yes, I support the Palestinians, not specifically Hamas, because Israel is killing so many of them every day. If the situation were reversed and the Hamas faction in Palestine had the military strength and were killing hundreds of Israelis every day, I would support Israel. By asking me, "Do you think Palestine/Hamas would care about women and children while they wiped Israel out?" implies to me that you think that is wrong. If it would be wrong for Hamas to do that to Israel, why don't you think it's wrong that Israel is doing that to Palestinians? I think if Hamas had all that power, they would establish a one-state solution in Palestine and kill or expel all the Jews. And I think if Israel continues this war, they will not stop until they establish a one-state solution and kill or expel all Palestinians. I'm in favor of a two-state solution, which would be enforced by third parties, such as the neighboring Arab states, in conjunction with Western countries, including the EU. This two-state solution should, IMO, revert to the division done in 1947/1948 by the UN. What would you like to see as a result of the end of this war?
  12. I have made comments condemning Hamas' Oct 7 attack, and do understand that both sides want to eradicate the other in order to establish only one state - their state. I condemn Israel now because, as far as I know, they are the only ones who are continuing these genocidal actions since Oct 7. But, you have to realize that before Oct 7 and for the past 70 years, this "war" for one state has been going on continuously. Oct 7 was just another chapter in that war, and now Israel's actions in Gaza (and the West Bank), are the latest chapter.
  13. Well, this is certainly a complete 1800 turn of events. 😮 In the photo above, the person described as a "ladyboy" on the right, wearing the blue dress, looks very attractive. 😉
  14. I, like most of those on these forums, detest this type of violence and condemn the perpetrators to the fullest. Being woke, I remember the extent of the horrors perpetrated on the Jews in the 1940s by the German Nazis: - They were identified as a group whose existence posed a threat to the state. - They were discriminated against because of their race and religion. - Their businesses, homes, and lands were confiscated by the state. - They were driven into small, concentrated areas. - There, they were starved and killed - men, women, and children, with the objective of exterminating them all. We should all remember these things and be thankful that there is no state doing this to a minority in their land today.
  15. Find "Petch," arrest him, try him, and if found guilty, put him in prison for life. And, it would be helpful to tell all the other prisoners what "Petch" did so they could let him know what they think of striking a 4-year-old with a machete. 😡
  16. Arrest both perpetrators, charge them, try them, and if found guilty, sentence them to many years in prison for many, many years! 😡
  17. This is just another example of Israel's undeniable genocidal intent against the Palestinian people in Gaza, with the goal of either killing or driving out all Palestinians from their homeland and making all of Palestine the state of Israel. 😡 I'm appalled at these kinds of activities, but am glad to see they are now being reported daily in the Western news media.

  19. Violence in Pattaya? Who would have guessed that? 🙄
  20. Charge him with cruelty to animals, arrest him, try him, if found guilty, put him in jail for about 6 months, and then deport him.😡
  21. The hostages are the only thing keeping Israel from completely decimating what's left of Palestine. This genocide (and I do know what it means) has been going on for over 70 years. There may not have been any IDF in what was left of Gaza until after Oct 7, but there have been many, many military incursions into Palestinian land, including Gaza, over the past 70 years. See the maps below to see what's been happening...
  22. Israel has been carrying out its genocide of Palestinians in all of Palestine for over 70 years. Here is a map of Palestine showing the way it looked in 1946, how it was divided up in 1947, and how it looked in 2012, well before the Oct 7 attack. This loss of land wasn't the result of Israel buying land from Palestinians; It was the result of Israeli military actions. The hostages are the only bargaining chip Hamas has. They cannot threaten Israel with military action. Hamas will release its hostages when a two-state agreement is reached with Israel that includes the removal of all IDF from all Palestinian land. Also, this agreement will have to be enforced by other countries or organizations (like the UN) because, otherwise, as soon as Hamas releases all the hostages, the IDF will come in a completely decimate the rest of Palestine. Yes, I have and will continue to criticize Hamas for their Oct 7 attack and their taking hostages, but I will also continue to criticize Israel for its 70-year-long genocidal actions regarding Palestine. I am not anti-Semitic (which, by the way, means anti-Jews AND anti-Arabs - if you doubt this, look up the word "Semite.") Also, I actually had no idea what has been happening in Palestine until I started searching this after the Oct 7 attack. It was not the start of a war; it was just a new chapter in a 70-year-long war.
