    United States believes Iran's role was one of actively encouraging militants

    Believe/s??  Many people also believe in the Tooth Fairy, but there exists no evidence.

    U.S. intelligence showed Iran-backed Shi'ite militias positioning rockets near bases housing U.S. forces, according to two Iraqi security sources.

    What no WMD's this time or troops massing on the border with Saudi Arabia ready to strike at any moment (even though the CIA said there was no evidence at all, even from spy satelites etc and no one to this day has found the WMD's.

     

    Bolton and his "crazies" (the neo-cons) would be better suited to writing fairy tales or Marvel comics (apologies Marvel, I know your stories are slightly believable)!

     

    In those famous words that have rung through the century "Yankee go home"!

    The U.S. military said on Tuesday that B-52 bombers would be part of additional forces being sent to the Middle East to counter what the Trump administration says are "clear indications" of threats from Iran to U.S. forces there.

    Well maybe the US should get out of the Middle East.  They have no business being there.  I am sure that if the Iranians decided to build up forces in Mexico there would be "clear indications" of threats from the US too.

    Contraband and drought are unrelated in this video it seems, except to those with a noticible resentment.

    I mentioned drought in regard to the farmers recent plight which was ignored by the govt.  In the video the news reporter clearly states at the 14 sec mark "risking Australia's 60 billion dollar agricultural industry".  (agriculture and farmers go together...get it?)  You did watch the video first didnt you?

  4. I am having similar problems with Kaspersky.  Whenever I connect to ThaiVisa I get a message from Kaspersky saying they have blocked the page due to "Threat of Data Loss"  It only happens on TV.  My provider is 3BB (fibre) and I am running windows 7 ultimate.  Anybody else having problems?

    Not as black and white as you insinuate. There was a democratically elected parliament, that challenged and held Maduro accountable. He didn't like that so he formed a new separate "Assembly" of members appointed by him and said this was now over parliament. In effect he made himself a dictator, with support form the judiciary, military and a sham Presidential election in which rivals were arrested, imprisoned or intimidated.

     

    The "baddies" as you out it, support this dictator.

    Interesting.  Can you point me to a source?  (I am interested, not being a "clever bottom").

  6. I spent years "on the road" and when finances got short I would look for work or move to a country where work was allowed.  They are actually some of my best experiences looking back.  I would never dream of begging or even trying to borrow from friends/family.

     

    I do however realise that sometimes all your best plans sometimes go pear shaped and you need to ask for help.  Problem is sometimes some people take advantage and then make it hard on those who really do need help.  Example is a guy I know who has lived off borrowed money from month to month for years.  But it hasnt been just to survive.  Its so he can be seen on Facebook staying in 5 star hotels in popular tourist spots on weekends and holidays.  All about show.  Not long ago his Thai wife got sick and needed an operation.  Even though he already owed money to most of his friends he went around crying to borrow more so his wife could get better.  At the same time his family back home set up a GoFundMe supported by the same sad story.  However what most didnt realise is he was still driving around in his new "sports" car that he refuses to sell!!

  7. The "baddies" ie Russia, China and Cuba are calling for more dialogue to resolve the issue.  The "goodies" ie the USA and the EU are talking uprisings and military action??  Doesnt that strike you as odd?

     

    In addition, in every news article, great lengths are gone to in explaining what countries support what side but rarely a mention of who the people actually support.

    Every American should have the right to defend themselves against...…...other Americans! How sad is that! 

    As time goes by and considering the historical actions of the US govts I am beginning to wonder if Americans feel the need to be heavily armed in order to protect themselves against their own government.

    President Donald Trump's national security adviser, John Bolton, said on Friday he would deliver a speech in Miami to Cuban exiles on Wednesday about actions the White House is taking on Venezuela, Cuba and Nicaragua, countries he has called a "troika of tyranny."

      John Bolton is a neo-conservative whose philosophy includes spreading myths designed to spread fear in order to strengthen the states power and control.

     

    Maybe they could launch another Bay of Pigs type invasion of Venezuela where the people then rise up to overthrow their supposed unpopular leader......oh no thats right, the US got that wrong as well and then had to invade defenseless Grenada to try to hide their humiliation...again.
