  1. Nothing new. Queen Elizabeth never visited Israel for a reason. Remember the King David hotel bombing by the terrorist Irgun, whose leader Menchem Begin was prime minister from 1977-1983. For the past 30 years Netanyahu, another evil man has mostly been PM. Many forget he became PM after Rabin was assassinated because he agreed to a two stare solution. Netanyahu, Smotrich and Ben Gvir are evil men supported by the majority of Jews in Israel. Israel are powerful but this Genocide ain't going to end well for them.
  2. Rubbish. Prostitutes are in every culture.
  3. Israel can stop hundreds of cruise missiles from Iran yet can't stop guys breaking out of a concentration camp in pickups and paragliders. It's obvious that the terrorist Israeli cabinet were looking for an excuse to flatten 95% of Gazan houses, cultural centres, universities, hospitals, mosques, schools, churches AND kill 25,000 children and almost get away with it as the a Western media censor the truth.
  4. That statistic is being weaponised to stir up anger, not to inform anyone honestly. First, sexual offending is about criminal behaviour - not nationality, ethnicity, or religion. There is no credible evidence that being Afghan makes someone inherently more likely to commit a sexual crime. Criminality is influenced by complex social factors like poverty, trauma, age demographics, and marginalisation - not passport origin. Second, raw “per capita” comparisons are often misleading. Refugee populations are disproportionately young and male - the demographic statistically most likely to commit any crime in every country. If you compare young men to young men, the gap typically shrinks dramatically. Presenting the data without context is not analysis - it’s propaganda. Third, if we’re going to talk about responsibility, let’s not forget that the US and UK spent 20 years at war in Afghanistan. Entire communities were bombed, families were displaced, and generations grew up amid violence. Western forces have been credibly accused of war crimes, unlawful killings, torture, and night raids that left civilians traumatised. Many of the refugees arriving now are people who grew up in that chaos. Mental trauma, displacement, and breakdown of social systems have consequences. To take a statistic - stripped of context - and use it to imply that Afghans as a group are somehow predisposed to sexual violence is racist. It blames an entire nationality for the actions of individuals and ignores both demographics and the West’s role in destabilising their country. Sexual offending exists in every society. British men commit sexual offences. American men commit sexual offences. Scottish men commit sexual offences. Crime is about individuals, not ethnicity. If we care about victims, the solution is better policing, better integration, mental health support, and accountability for offenders - not scapegoating whole communities. Facts should inform policy. They shouldn’t be used to fuel prejudice.
  5. No, why? I understand, to some degree, why you'd be blinkered, if a Jew.
  6. Are you denying Jewish Israelis are cleansing Gaza and the West bank? Yes or no will suffice.
  7. You do know most of these shooters are white US citizens? You only usually jump on the crimes by non white people
  8. They should be immediately put into concentration camps and made to sew mailbags or something. This would stop more coming.
  9. In joint statement, countries urge international community to ‘compel Israel to halt its dangerous escalation’. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/2/9/muslim-countries-slam-israel-for-illegal-annexation-push-in-west-bank
  10. ?? How many wars has Iran started in the last 200 years? How many wars has your country started?
  11. Your country is committing genocide, that's why Greta is fighting. Calling Gazans underdogs is perhaps a Freudian slip. Your people gave Palestinians 14/100 on a humanity scale. https://en-social-sciences.m.tau.ac.il/peaceindex/joint-israeli-palestinian-surveys/2024-09 Studies consistently show that Jewish Israelis view Palestinians as less than human. This deep-seated racism is rooted in the Zionist colonial project and helps explain the broad support for the Gaza genocide https://mondoweiss.net/2025/08/in-israel-animals-in-human-form-may-be-killed/
  12. The term “terrorist” can be justified when a military engages in actions that deliberately or systematically inflict violence on civilians in order to intimidate or control a population, regardless of whether the actor is a state or a non-state group. During the Great March of Return, credible human rights reports documented the shooting of unarmed demonstrators, including instances where snipers targeted protesters’ kneecaps, as well as journalists and medics. The use of live ammunition against largely civilian protests, resulting in deaths and life-altering injuries, can reasonably be interpreted as an attempt to deter and terrorise a civilian population through fear and physical harm. More broadly, military operations have allegedly caused large-scale civilian casualties, there are persistent claims of disproportionate force, and repeated allegations of violations of international humanitarian law. Actions such as strikes during ceasefires or the targeting of civilian infrastructure, if proven, could constitute war crimes. If terrorism is understood as the intentional use of violence against civilians for political ends, then conduct that consistently results in the killing, maiming, or intimidation of non-combatants fits that functional definition, and state status alone does not place an actor beyond that label.
  13. The IDF are terrorist scum, simple.
  14. Thank you for your time. With me it all about time. If I lose more than 5,000 baht by taking the time off work. How many hours did it take you to do the business there?
  15. Too much for me. Nice to let us know you are rich.
  16. One of the most idiotic, or evil posts I've seen here.
  17. Wow, you've changed your tune. Glad to see you FINALLY got what posters here have said for a long time.
  18. I get the point about nonviolence in theory, but people did try that. A few years ago there were large, unarmed, peaceful protests, and they were met with live fire. There are documented cases of protesters in the great march of return being shot by IDF snipers, including public statements at the time boasting about shooting people in the knees. When nonviolent protest is answered with bullets, it’s hard to argue it was never tried - or that fear is the main reason it failed. The Israelis are pure evil when they shoot innocent peaceful protesters. Don't forget they've also murdered about 25,000 children in the last couple of years and continue to do so in a ceasefire, over 500 people killed in current ceasefire by the terrorist IDF. https://www.newarab.com/news/israeli-snipers-brag-about-deliberately-crippling-gaza-protesters Also, these animals shoot young boys in the testicles for target practice. https://www.aljazeera.com/video/quotable/2025/9/5/palestinian-boys-shot-in-testicles-as-target#flips-6378493910112:0
  19. Omg, you really are a nutcase.
  20. I'm in Bangkok and need a new passport. Is it worth paying an agency 5,000 baht to do it or go to the place myself? Last time I went to soi 13, Trendy.
  21. When are these Israeli criminals going to be held accountable? Ceasefire?, my @#£& Gaza Sunday: Israel Kills Six Palestinians Amid Continued Ceasefire Violations https://imemc.org/article/gaza-sunday-israel-kills-six-palestinians-amid-continued-ceasefire-violations/
  22. New budgets, administrative bodies and legal changes show Israel moving from informal settlement expansion to an organized system of annexation across the occupied West Bank https://www.palestinechronicle.com/israel-funds-settler-militias-expands-land-control-in-sweeping-west-bank-policy-shift/ More Israeli crimes go unpunished and even ignored.
  23. Please elaborate about personal security.
  24. Indeed. Shamefully, there are a few still defending Israeli war crimes. Not as many as 1/2 years ago but some stubborn, old blinkered nuts.
