Foreigners Clash Over Thai Woman in Pattaya, 2 Stabbed
Not totally clear from the report, but the way I read it, the French guy who was stabbed while trying to be a peace maker. So I wouldn’t tar him with the same brush as the others. His injury behind the left ear also seems to suggest he was possibly stabbed from behind.

Iran Nears Missile Deal with China Amid Rising Tensions
I suspect the acquisition of these missiles will be added to the case for a U.S. strike now. Maybe another misstep by the Iranian leadership?

ICC Hears Charges Against Ex-Philippine President Duterte
I wouldn’t really have a problem with drug dealers being eliminated, if it was only limited to Heroin dealers etc. Unfortunately too many innocent bystanders were also killed, just by being in the wrong place at the wrong time. This includes one case where a Child was killed on the back of a motorbike when police shot at the driver. There are plenty of other disturbing cases were Children were killed. Some of the killings were also just a case of old scores being settled. Acting on untrue information supplied by rivals, the Police had carte Blanche to carry out executions. In some cases, in collusion with, and paid by the informants. That’s the problem with the policy, no trail to prove a persons guilt, the Police acted as juror and executioner. Duterte didn’t care about the innocent people killed.

Ukraine Seeks 20-Year US Security Guarantee for Peace Deal
I don’t now if this proposed deal for USA security guarantee is any different to an earlier one? Under an earlier version Putin could stage a false flag operation and tell the USA Ukraine has violated the agreement attacking Russia. In those circumstances the USA would not be required to defend Ukraine. I wonder, would Trump want to spend USA money on defending Ukraine, or would he rather make trade deals with Russia. Also there was a similar guarantee when Ukraine gave up its nuclear weapons, which turned out not to be worth the paper it’s written on.

Brit Teen Forced to Carry Weed from Thailand, Faces Qatar Jail
There is a picture on his FB dated 3rd September, which looks like Thailand. It's a apartment with a private pool in front of the apartment overlooking the ocean. Begs the question why a coercing criminal gang would put him up in such a luxurious place for at least 7 weeks. More believable he was offered a holiday in return for carrying the drugs back.

Cambodia Breaches Ceasefire with Drone Swarm Over Thailand
The Thai army would have no idea if these drones were carrying munitions, or what their mission was. So shooting down Cambodian Drones (if there were any) over Thai territory is a purely defensive action. Like shooting Chinese weathers balloons over the USA.

Cambodia Breaches Ceasefire with Drone Swarm Over Thailand
If they are flying over Thai land I would have thought the army would have taken some pot shots at them and brought some down.
