  1. IMHO IF Israel keeps provoking Iran there will be a day of reckoning when the mad mullahs simply will retaliate, and no matter how loud or how long Israel keeps denying it, they will have brought retaliation of the worst kind upon themselves, and on many other parts of the world.
  2. I posted the confused emoji. Who is "our" and who is "we"? Perhaps you mean the governments and not all of the people. But please don't include me in the "our" and "we". In fact why not just speak for yourself and add the rider "and anybody who agrees with me". I agree with you about supporting the Ukraine, but I definitely disagree with you about supporting the murderous slaughter of innocent Palestinian men women and children by Israel.
  3. I agree with you 100%. Most of the time I see his name come up, I just skip over the post..
  4. And before that how far back do you want to go? In the 1930s and 1940s the Stern gang, Irgun and Likud were proscribed Jewish terror organisations in Palestine, responsible for many attacks on the British including blowing up the King David hotel in Jerusalem where 91 people were killed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_David_Hotel_bombing Yes that same peaceful Jewish nation people were responsible for all those deaths. Except that it was not even a nation at the time.
  5. Slow drones and missiles and after giving Israel plenty of notice. From what I have read lately Iran has something like 3,000 ballistic missiles which are probably a lot faster faster and more accurate, which they chose not to use at the time. Do you think that Iran should have responded with a heavier barrage or simply ignored the Israeli attack on their consulate in Syria. Further to that, what response do YOU think Iran should make to the second unprovoked attack by Israel?
  6. Why not reply to billd766 post or even send him a message. He doesn't bite.
  7. Great idea. Why not blame the 2 victims who were beaten, instead of the stupid farang who was the problem.
  8. It would be nice if it was the real Songkran, and not this made up crap.
  9. Nothing like provoking your enemy, and (deleted) off your few friends that you have left in the world. Especially as you attacked Iran in the first place. They retaliated in a minor way and said as far as they were concerned, that was the end of it. So now you attack them a second time. To all those Israeli and IDF supporters on here. I know and understand that you will find a rational excuse for Israel. But there is no rational excuse at all. Does this look like the action of a sane and rational leader, or that of a homicidal maniac?
  10. Everybody who pays some sort of tax including the 80 to 90% of the people who cannot actually use the systems, simply because they don't live in Bangkok.
  11. Thank you. The pupils Mother was presumably told the school rules before her daughter was enrolled and should have known and understood the rules. Having seen a couple of video interviews with the head teacher she was honest and open about the religious side and even the High Court agreed with her, I feel sorry for the girl, but not for her parents, who put her in that position.
  12. Then the war will carry on and more people on both sides will die until somebody has the balls to say that enough is enough and intervene. Who that will be I have no idea. Personally, I think that it should be President Biden and the USA, but he and the USA have enough internal problems in this election year to cope with.
  13. How can I select a 365 day time period without saving it as a new stream? Every time I try and then go elsewhere and return it reverts to the time period since I last posted.
  14. For a sophisticated military force who can target the roof of a moving vehicle because some IDF soldier "thought" 3 vehicles were taken over by Hamas, why would they destroy an apartment building to target one apartment and perhaps kill the occupants and NOT kill any other people or destroy the building? That IMHO, is an overkill unless they intended to do so in the first place. Do you really believe that if Hamas released all the hostages that the war would instantly stop and all the IDF would return to Israel? Netanyahu has said that he wants to, in his words, destroy Hamas in Gaza completely. If he does, do you believe think that the war will instantly stop and all the IDF would return to Israel? What if all the hostages are released, Hamas destroyed in Gaza, and the war does not stop? Where will he attack next? The West bank, Lebanon. Jordan or anywhere else there are Palestinians? Will Hamas keep fighting Israel and the IDF until the last warm Palestinian body in Gaza has died and then the war will be over? IMHO the war will never be over until the current leadership in both Hamas AND Israel are removed, and replaced by non religious leaders with common sense, who are sick of the slaughter by BOTH sides.
  15. There is very little information that I can find about Thai Newsroom apart from the About Us part of their website, which says Veteran journalists starting afresh The team of journalists launching this news portal have decades of experience and are dedicated to bringing readers both in Thailand and at every corner of the world the very best news about Thailand and of course rest of the world. We want to use the wealth of knowledge and experience we have gained through years of hard work to bring timely, accurate, insightful and balanced news that will help our readers stay ahead of the game of life, be this a small issue at home or a major national or international development. We will be by your side every day to help shed light on what is actually going on and really value your support. The internet has described by Eric Bleecher as the “first mass medium in history with almost no barriers to entry and practically unlimited content-carrying capacity” and we are fully part of this new digital wave and will remain digitally close to you by being just a few clicks away. Sincerely, Nina Suebsukcharone (Founder and acting Editor) Nothing about the ownership, the staff, how long they have been in existence. In fact until this thread I had never even heard of them. Are they a major supplier of Thai news to all and sundry including the Thaiger and ANN or just the latest New Kids On The Block?
  16. But was the pupil concerned, "forced" to go to that particular school, or did she attend voluntarily and then try to change the rules into her (minority) favour?
  17. Ignorance of the year award. Really? Where are all YOUR explanations, diagrams etc referring to what happened? I learned a lot more about ammonia leaks and ice plant from in a few minutes than I could ever learn from your posts in a lifetime. He discussed the subject, provided links and easily understandable drawings. And you discussed and provided what? Just what knowledge did you provide on the subject, other than a cheap and stupid insult?
  18. Equally as a start Israel could stop attacking the Palestinians in Gaza. Sadly that is just as likely as Hamas releasing the Israeli hostages, and so the unceasing slaughter on both sides will continue. Negotiations don't seem to work as one side or the other or both sides reject the outcome of every negotiation. IMHO the only way to some sort of "peace" is for 1 or more western nations to come into the area with armed forces to impose it. However the nations who impose that peace had better have a lot of body bags with them and be prepared to wield a very big stick.
  19. What a load of BS from the Thaiger again. NOBODY recovers from a critical illness in "just a few days" especially if they are supposed to have been in a hospital for 6 months before that. It is however a report from the Thaiger, in which both the truth and the "Thaiger" are only tenuously connected. The Thaiger also studiously ignores the fact that Thaksin was deposed in a military coup, and that NONE of the generals have ever been punished for it, nor for the subsequent military coups.
  20. It seems that according to my government (UK), they only supply 0.42% of weapons to Israel.
  21. I am sorry that I missed your post, my apologies. If that is what you believe, fair enough. I look at the numbers of killed and wounded on each side and I find that far more Palestinian men women and children have been killed than Israeli's, coming up to 100 to 1, Palestinians v Israeli's. A vastly disproportional ratio, especially given that about 60% or more were unarmed women an children. That is of course discounting those Palestinian men, women and children still buried in the rubble of their houses and apartment blocks. Then of course who knows how many people will die of starvation, dehydration (no water), no medicines, no hospital care, no electricity etc. But it will be reasonably certain that none of those will be Israeli.
  22. But you did not answer my post. If Israel is allowed to attack other countries consulates, then it must equally be OK for other countries to attack, murder people and destroy Israeli consulates and embassies and murder the people in them.
  23. Thank you for the quote. https://www.econlib.org/show-me-the-man-and-ill-find-you-the-crime/ It actually came from Lavrentiy Beria who was Joseph Stalin's secret police chief, and is the paradigmatic example of what the rule of law is not. And if there was no crime, then Beria would find anything and make it fit.
