Netanyahu and all his "war-mongering" cabinet will simply ignore that.

When they stop sending bombs AND money.

Which god out of the thousands of gods would that be?

I wonder where the Scottish chip shops deep fried ice cream, deep fried Mars bars and deep fried Haggis rate.

In reality, the Ukraine will more like run out of ammunition as their supply line is much longer than the Russian supply line. Also the GOP in the USA is blocking funds for the Ukraine, Not that they care about soldiers dying anyway, as long as they are not US soldiers. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-68338550 Avdiivka: Russia accused of executing prisoners of war after Ukraine withdraws

Sorry to hear about that.. After such a sad day you would not be interested in a slice or 2 of pork pie. Even with 2 slices taken out is still weighs 2.25 kg. made in an 8 inch springfoil dish and cooked in an air fryer. It took 2 days to assemble (4 hours) and 2 hours to cook. The first slice had HP sauce and the second had hot German mustard. Both were very tasty. It was just an experiment and I will go back to normal size pork pies again.

Why not go even further back and refer to King Herod 2,000 years ago?

How many Palestinians have you actually personally interviewed to reach that conclusion and when?

Well you did ask me a question about what I thought should happen and you got my response.

My advice to the Thai people would be to start their own coup against the military.. The drawbacks would be IF the military would actually shoot their own country people, II am sure that a lot of them would), but I am fairly sure that many of them would not. Having said that there would be a lot of people killed and a lot more injured, IF it would happen. The problem for the military would come from outside of Thailand from the West, the EU, UK and the USA. ASEAN would do what it normally does, talk a lot but do nothing. The problem would be find capable leaders who could run such a coup, and who would be willing to stand up and fight and if necessary to die on behalf of the Thai people. There would need to be at least a million people and probably more to simply blockade the army in their barracks and take over the country. There are also a lot of army units who are designated as the "King's Guards" and though they are part of the regular army AFAIK their loyalty is to the King first before the regular army. Whilst Thailand has a large military many of them are conscripts and nobody really knows what they would do in the event of a civilian coup, AFAIK there has never been one before. What will happen will not happen before the next election but if after that election the results are overturned as they were before, during and after the last election, I have no idea. IMHO there are too many variables that depend on this to happen, so that that can happen and then something else may or may not happen.

What has 1806 got to do with a statue of QE 2?

That I why I commented on the posters. I have lost a few good friends over the years with heart problems. One friend in his 50s sat in an armchair after lunch and simply never woke up. Another friend at 82 went to sleep one night and never woke up, Another friend had been in the ICU for a few days, moved to another hospital and died in the ICU there.

Until something like that happens to you, you have no idea what or when something will happen. There is usually NO warning. You maybe anywhere between your 20s and your 70s, 80s, and your 90s. You may be as fit as a fiddle or obese, you may smoke, drink or take drugs or not. You can exercise or not, but mostly there is NO warning. I found out the hard way after 2 stents were fitted in 2006 and after 2 blackouts last year. The hospital doctor told me, and I believe him, that if I didn't change my life style the next blackout will most probably be my last. I tend to speak from experience on medical matters. Before I had the stents were put in during 2006, I had trouble breathing and climbing stairs and, although I didn't know it I had high BP. The stents fixed that for a few years. I January 2023, my wife was in the village 6 km away and I was sitting up by the kitchen. The next thing I knew was that I was in hospital 65 km away. I had no idea of the time, day, date, week, month or year. The only thing I knew was that I was in a hospital, I had only a vague idea where and I had no idea if my wife knew what happened or even if she knew where I was. I have completely lost 4 or 5 hours. I spent 3 days and nights there before I was released. The second time in July last year was sitting watching YouTube on my pc and woke up tp find my neighbour using a hand fan on me and my wife beating me to make me wake up. The ambulance arrived to take me to the local hospital where I was quickly checked out and sent on to the provincial hospital where I stayed for 2 nights and 3 days. When I came out I was on bed rest for a week or 2 where from getting off my bed and going for a shower, coming back, putting on clean clothes and getting back onto the bed took me almost an hour. Now it is down to 10 minutes. THAT is when I started exercising and changing my life style. After I was released the second time I took up breathing exercises and exercises for the elderly form the UK NHS via the internet. I now eat less, move around between sitting, standing and walking and I do 1 hours NHS exercises most evenings, as well as catching up on all the little jobs around the house etc that I put off over the years. I feel better, I can breathe more easily, I can walk on level ground OK, but on uneven ground, a lt ot of steps or especially going down a slope I use my walking stick. Both time I blacked out I had NO warning. It just happened, so I speak with some experience. Both times before I blacked out I looked and felt perfectly normal, pretty much as Thaksin does, though he is only 74 now and I was 78 at the first time and 79 at the second time.

Especially as the last half of the 20th century was spent eradicating colonialism where the UK was casting off its old empire, or were you not around in those times?

What about Netanyahu's point blank refusal to even consider a 2 state solution?

And your opinion counts exactly the same as his, mine or antibody else's.

Thank you Dr ikke1959 for your valuable expert opinion. I do love reading the "expert" opinions of the so called doctors on this forum, especially those who know everything about a persons medical symptoms, when they have never even met that person or even seen the persons medical record. You obviously realise that there are arteries leading from the heart to the head. https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=what+is+a+blockage+to+the+blood+vessels+to+the+head+called&sca_esv=0da03635f65f96aa&sxsrf=ACQVn08fgC8NCgxE3pd-hQq2AqqFt-VTOQ%3A1708319440744&source=hp&ei=0OLSZYeqK47dseMP7JaUkAc&iflsig=ANes7DEAAAAAZdLw4DV487jld0JC7BQM82dIjzr61_pc&ved=0ahUKEwiH0rTr0baEAxWObmwGHWwLBXIQ4dUDCBw&oq=what+is+a+blockage+to+the+blood+vessels+to+the+head+called&gs_lp=Egdnd3Mtd2l6Ijp3aGF0IGlzIGEgYmxvY2thZ2UgdG8gdGhlIGJsb29kIHZlc3NlbHMgdG8gdGhlIGhlYWQgY2FsbGVkMgUQIRigATIFECEYoAEyBRAhGKABMgUQIRigAUj2vgJQsRdYiKQCcAJ4AJABAJgB9QGgAZcqqgEHMzYuMTcuMbgBDMgBAPgBAagCCsICBxAjGOoCGCfCAgcQLhjqAhgnwgIQEC4YgAQYigUYxwEYrwEYJ8ICChAjGIAEGIoFGCfCAgQQIxgnwgILEAAYgAQYsQMYgwHCAgsQLhiABBixAxiDAcICCxAuGIAEGMcBGNEDwgIFEAAYgATCAggQABiABBixA8ICDhAuGIAEGIoFGLEDGIMBwgIIEC4YgAQYsQPCAg4QABiABBiKBRixAxiDAcICBRAuGIAEwgIKEAAYgAQYRhj5AcICBhAAGBYYHsICCBAAGBYYHhgPwgILEAAYgAQYigUYhgPCAgUQIRifBcICBxAhGAoYoAHCAggQABiABBiiBA&sclient=gws-wiz From the Mayo clinic. Carotid artery disease occurs when fatty deposits, called plaques, clog the blood vessels that deliver blood to the brain and head (carotid arteries). The clog increases the risk of stroke. Stroke is a medical emergency that occurs when the brain loses all or much of its blood supply. During a stroke, the brain doesn't get oxygen and brain cells begin to die within minutes. Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability in the U.S. Carotid artery disease often develops slowly. The first sign of the condition might be a stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA). A TIA is a temporary shortage of blood flow to the brain. Treatment of carotid artery disease usually involves lifestyle changes, medicines and sometimes surgery. Symptoms In its early stages, carotid artery disease often doesn't have symptoms. The condition might not be obvious until it's serious enough to deprive the brain of blood, causing a stroke or TIA. Symptoms of a stroke or TIA include: Sudden numbness or weakness in the face or limbs, often on one side of the body. Sudden trouble speaking and understanding speech. Sudden trouble seeing in one or both eyes. Sudden dizziness or loss of balance. Sudden, severe headache with no known cause. But of course, you knew that anyway didn't you?

Really? So stealing an entire country and committing treason against the state is less corrupt than what Thaksin allegedly has done. Not just once or even twice but 12 times?

Well, he certainly did more for Thailand and the Thai people than ALL the military coups lumped together since 1932.

And you know this how exactly? Were you at the house with a personal invitation, or just another load of BS that only happened in your mind?

Semantics aside, yes it did. And if you believe that made any difference I can sell you a bridge. Please explain what did actually happen and the time scale. She had already called for an election that she would most probably have won. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yingluck_Shinawatra After mass protests against her government in late 2013, she asked for a dissolution of parliament on 9 December 2013, triggering a snap election, but continued to act as caretaker prime minister.[9] On 7 May 2014, the Constitutional Court of Thailand removed Yingluck Shinawatra from the office of caretaker prime minister and defence minister following months of political crisis. The court found her guilty of charges of abuse of power over the removal of national security chief Thawil Pliensri in 2011.[10] In the wake of the May 2014 military coup, Yingluck was arrested along with former cabinet ministers and political leaders of all parties and held at an army camp for a few days while the coup was consolidated. She was tried in 2016 but did not appear in court in August 2017 for the verdict. An arrest warrant was issued. She reportedly fled the country. In September 2017, she was found guilty in absentia and sentenced to five years in prison.

They probably hate him even more now that they did before but no matter how rich or how powerful they are, they know that there is somebody higher up the chain with even more power than they have.

How wonderful it must be to be so perfect and never have to change your mind I can vaguely remember back to 2006 when Thaksin was deposed and at that time I probably agreed with it, but that was 18 years ago. The same thing when Yingluck was deposed 9 tears ago. I know that I was in favour at the time as I believed what I read on TVF at the time. It took me a couple of years to realise that it was all BS spread by the military. What I do find a bit odd is how you, who only joined ANN 4 years ago know what I posted 18 years ago. I wonder why you would be looking that far back at MY posts, trying to find something or anything to try to discredit my current posts. I can't even remember what I posted last week, let alone 9 or 18 years ago. Then again the past is the past. Its over, let it go.

Yes. Have you?

I had no idea that you could not read, understand or comprehend what people write. If you had read it correctly and carefully you would see that he was talking about his wife My wife and her entire village are celebrating. Everywhere are red flags and flags with the image of Mr. Thaksin. Everyone is wearing red today to express their happiness.
