  1. But how many were on trial and for for what? Being an illegal immigrant? Being a gangster? Being a terrorist?
  2. One easy to know if they were terrorists or not would be to collate the results of the trials. That will be difficult to prove, as they never went to trial in the first place.
  3. Then make start with the Israeli stockpile of nuclear weapons.
  4. Real smiles depend a lot on you, your attitude and your location. If you out of the tourist areas, have a good polite and friendly attitude and are NOT a misery guys, then the smiles you get, are genuine.
  5. If you do your home work and internet searches of your home country and of Thailand before you even consider retiring, you should be relatively OK.
  6. Snip from the OP Former U.S. President Donald Trump has reportedly set a two-month deadline for Iran to reach a new nuclear agreement, according to a U.S. official and two sources briefed on the matter. The ultimatum was included in a letter sent to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, raising the stakes for potential diplomatic talks or military action. And how will he get US troops into Iran. I doubt that the EU or NATO will allow him access, and if he sends ships and troops into Arab Gulf. they will have to invade and take over every port and sea access from the Straits of Hormuz up to Iraq. I doubt if any Middle east countries, other than the nuclear armed Israel, will allow him access. That leaves him the USAF, until the body bags start to come home, unless he uses nuclear weapons, which IMHO will be the worst thing he could do.
  7. It looks as though the MG dealer in Kamphaeng Phet has closed down for some reason. It is on the route 1 southbound from KPP, and it looked all shut up and deserted and no cars in sight anywhere, not even an MG, on Wednesday afternoon 19 March 2025.
  8. And out here in rural Kamphaeng Phet we were at 128 or 46.5 this morning. Now it is 119.
  9. Why? I have no interest whatsoever in watching F1. You are probably correct, but that is not what @henryford1958 who I was responding too, actually said.
  10. But that is not what @henryford1958 who I was replying too, actually said. His words, not mine. Let's hope it's not at Buriram with no accommodation within 50kms.
  11. The problem with all this for Trump is that he can only delete stuff in the USA. He cannot delete stuff that is already freely available on the internet, as many other people may well have downloaded it already, and that will be totally outside his control.
  12. Would you like to do a search for accommodation in BuriRam? There seems to be a large number of hotels and booking sites that seem to prove differently to you.
  13. Thank you for that information. My Thai wife, not a wifey or any other name, of 25 years is called Saisunee
  14. Personally I prefer to pay COD. That way it is safer as nobody can access my credit/debit card, i don't have to go through the return hassle of using a "wallet", and if it doesn't turn up. then I haven't paid for it anyway. However that is just my opinion, others may differ. Also if I pay in cash I can look at the heap of money and ask myself, do I "REALLY" need this item, or do I simply like and want it?
  15. Convicted in a court owned by the military, after an illegal military coup to oust him.
  16. And you know this how? Do you know them personally? Did you go ton the trial that they didn't get? If you claim something, why not at least try to back it up with facts or a link.
  17. Not only deporting them, but in handcuffs .
  18. Why should he be worried? His country is Thailand. BTW, he does have a proper name which is Thaksin. Perhaps one of his screen names s Tony. Is watchcat your real name or simply an alias? And which is your country of origin, since you seem to be questioning Thaksin's?
  19. I wonder what has happened to Trump's claim that he will end the Ukraine war in 24 hours, or is that a forbidden (by Trump) subject nowadays? https://www.euronews.com/2025/03/15/trump-says-he-was-a-bit-sarcastic-when-he-claimed-he-could-end-the-war-in-ukraine-in-24-ho US President Trump claimed he wasn't being serious when he repeatedly claimed he could end the war in Ukraine in 24-hours during his presidential campaign. https://apnews.com/article/trump-russia-ukraine-war-solved-f51b96e4e690341caee65358bcbab1fa Trump says he was being a ‘bit sarcastic’ when he promised to end Russia-Ukraine war in 24 hours President Donald Trump speaks to reporters during a meeting with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte at the White House in Washington, Thursday, March 13, 2025. (Pool via AP) President Donald Trump speaks to reporters during a meeting with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte at the White House in Washington, Thursday, March 13, 2025. (Pool via AP) By MICHELLE L. PRICE Updated 8:49 AM GMT+7, March 15, 2025 Share WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — President Donald Trump said Friday that he was “being a little bit sarcastic” when he repeatedly claimed as a candidate that he would have the Russia-Ukraine war solved within 24 hours — and even before he even took office. Trump was asked about the vow he repeatedly made on the campaign trail during an interview for the “Full Measure” television program as his administration is still trying to broker a solution 54 days into his second term. “Well, I was being a little bit sarcastic when I said that,” Trump said in a clip released ahead of the episode airing Sunday. “What I really mean is I’d like to get it settled and, I’ll, I think, I think I’ll be successful.” It was a rare admission from Trump, who has a long record of making exaggerated claims. https://www.wsj.com/video/watch-trump-says-as-president-hed-settle-ukraine-war-within-24-hours/0BCA9F18-D3BF-43DA-9220-C13587EAEDF2 There are many more links saying similar things. IMHO, Trump as usual, was simply shooting his mouth of with no idea what he was talking about.
  20. So if Canada cuts off oil supplies, cuts off electricity supplies, heavily taxes all oil tankers traversing Canada from Alaska to the USA, raises tariffs on all US goods to the equivalent or higher than the US rates, does that mean that the USA will not be affected in any way at all?
  21. For the confused poster who posted the confused emoji. If you cannot understang rhe written words, just try looking at the pictures.
  22. I am just reading Spike Milligan's series of his part in WW2. A very interesting story. I am on book 4 of 5 where the Allies are fighting their way up from the toe of Italy. They are not are history of WW2 as much as a personal recollection of what really happened during that time.
