Don;t view the topic for 24 hours, come back and 3 or 4 WeedHaters have appeared..
Give us a break fellas.. this is the PRO Cannabis forum. You are not welcome here.

By the time the Thai gov't gets around to putting this on the table, another few American States will have legalized recreational weed, plus Germany will go legal in the next month or so.. Rest of Europe still seem to be laggards though..
American Federal recreational legalization is inevitable.. and not in the distant future.
Thailand got out front on this issue and would be foolish to backtrack.. Plus Anutin is not going to roll over on his his "baby". nor should he.
I know that I'm preaching to the choir in this sub-forum, but it still feels good to say it.

Well.. I have been engaged in a 2 week running battle with Lazada and a scamming vendor. It's just now getting resolved. I ordered what was probably a too good to be true deal on a laptop. Paid up front. Something was telling me this and I attempted to cancel the order.. after it had been shipped but before I received it. No can do.. When the order arrived I left it unpacked and immediately initiated the return process. Vendor refused to accept the return. I contacted the Customer Service department and disputed that decision. Two weeks of back and forth with them. Send pictures. Send video after unpacking. The vendor for sure didn't want it back. It was supposed to be a brand name. There was no branding anywhere. A total no-name Chinese product with a "manual" completely in Chinese. To add insult to injury, it would not turn on. DOA.
I just received an email yesterday advising me to return to vendor. Lazada had seen the light. So I'm returning today but won't relax until the return is in my wallet and transferred to my bank.

i doubt it very much that even half Thai are serving in the army other than the very odd one...
Why would you doubt that? The Thai Ambassador to Israel estimates approximately 400-500 Thai women are married to Israeli citizens. Bound to be quite a few children as products of those marriages. All will be dual citizens. .
If those children are over the age of18, then they are eligible for conscription. Men and women, as noted.

You are a fan of illegal collective punishment then?
I no longer wish to see your vile posts so off to ignore with you.
I am not a fan of collective punishment. If you had read many of my posts you would know this..
Your quote, taken out of context, refers to negotiations over hostage/Palestinian prisoners.
Having Hamas members with family members being released adds to internal pressures to make a deal. I see now that Hamas wants all 5000 Palestinians released so my point is no longer relevant.
As to your point that my posts are vile.. well nice flounce, but incorrect.
If you have already put me on ignore you will not see this reply but everyone else will..

end of the current "2-party system

My final contribution to this thread.. I'll come back to the topic, not this thread, in a few more weeks..
Then we'll see what has transpired , despite all the anti-intellectual to-ing and fro-ing and often ridiculous comments contained here.
Hamas committed war crimes when they attacked October 7, killing women and children.
Israel is currently committing war crimes in their collective punishment of Gazan civilians, killing women and children. Hamas is hiding underground.
Like it or not, Hamas pulled off a successful attack that caught the Israelis by surprise. Massive fail for the Israeli leadership, intelligence apparatus and military. They had the Gazans contained in an open-air prison camp, complete with barbed wire and high walls. Israel controlled ingress and egress. And still missed the signs. This was well-prepared by Hamas and has an end-game.
They have put the Palestinian question back on the front-page, when the imminent Saudi/Israel pact was trying to ignore it. It's the root cause of the long-lasting conflict.
While it's easy to bomb Gaza from the air, the IDF is not up to the task of subduing Hamas in Gaza. The Israeli Army is too soft..under-trained for the task at hand. The reservists are not battle-hardened. It will not invade Gaza in force. They would suffer massive casualties. The defender has the advantage in a ruined urban setting. And also, Netanyahu has had the hard word from the US.
Israel is dead-set against a 2 State solution and so far they have been successfull in torpedoing it..
That's over.
Peace, in the form of a Palestinian State, will be imposed on Israel.
And I could care less what the peanut gallery, almost all pro-Israel with little knowledge of the back-story thinks... They will undoubtedly be throwing around words like "terrorist apologist", not knowing or caring that terrorism, conducted by Jewish immigrants to the Palestinian Mandate, were instrumental in founding the Jewish State. Which has a right to exist but not only on it's terms...

Why don't you just take a Bolt motosai instead of a greasy songthaew? It's much more exciting anyway because they don't know that you're going to give them a nice tip so they double-time it for the 40 baht pittance on offer 😂
Ah.. Lemsra69. I recognize your user name from your holier than thou posts on the thread about the severely injured Americans who were riding the elephant. Going on about the "Chang".. Good. you learned a Thai word.
As for your advice to catch a 40 Baht Bolt motosai (wow.. another Thai word), are you unaware of the posts detailing BritManToo's horrible experience being the victim of a road rage hit and run while riding his "motosai"?
Thais would say Big Bike.. Multiple broken bones. Long recovery.
I have lived in Jomtien for many years. Used to see mahouts guiding their elephants through undeveloped area between my balcony and Jomtien 2nd road.. when it wasn't much of a road. They were doing that because the greenery that the elephants were eating was free.. Do you have any idea how much elephants eat, and how much it costs to feed them?
Of course the keepers are going to try to earn money.. And I think they have a pretty good idea about the potential damage an fully grown animal can do to a human body. But.. they have to feed them...

Whilst your post is an ad hominem attack on someone speaking the truth. Why do all the insults come from the terrorist apologists, can you not find anything of substance to say?
Before i leave for the day.. Your above characterization of me as a "terrorist apologist" is completely incorrect!
With reference to the sadistic murderous acts by Hamas on October 7, I have in parallel threads condemned the perpetrators as beasts, deserving of the death that most received.
The background to that murderous action is a legitimate topic for discussion.
And your responses to my statement(s) shows me that you are indeed "wobbly".

It's not an ad hominem attack to tell someone they don't know what they are talking about!

Maybe time for you to bow out of the discussion if the above statement is evidence of your knowledge base..

Sad to hear they both suffered severe injuries.

As a poster above noted, buy on Lazada. You are choosing the wrong roasts. Anything from Full City to Full City+ and onto Dark are going to be dark and shiny with oil.
There are plenty of Northern Thailand roasters selling Medium roast which are lighter brown (First Crack).
The selection at Makro is too limited for me. I often order and receive beans that were roasted just a day or two before I ordered them..

It is nothing but complaints from you. No one cares about your whinging. The moderators will moderate. How about you try and contribute something worthwhile for a change?
The current death toll of Palestinian kids is 2,913 - what do you think about that?
In 16 years as a member of the forum, I have put 1 poster on Ignore. Several years ago..
Guess who..

There is, apparently, a swap deal arranged by Qatar - not there yet, but maybe close. Previous negotiations in hostage situations took months and years, though. Need to wait and see.
One correction and one anecdote - it was actually a bit over 1000 Palestinians who were released, among them one Yahya Sinwar....
Those negotiations took time because that was "quiet diplomacy". This time it would not be quiet. Israel should be talking about their desire to save their people (and foreign hostages..21? Thais) at every opportunity. If Hamas prevaricates..bad PR for them, including with their own people.
Israel should include family members, including distant relatives,of known Hamas operatives. More internal pressure..
Yes i recognize the name... Mr Sinwar is a very senior Hamas leader.
Mr. Friedman also said that if every senior Hamas member that Israel has claimed to have neutralized were significant there would be no Hamas..
