I wonder why anybody supports the Israeli's.

Why would anybody want to read a fairy story written centuries after the event to find history?

But that is simply your opinion. IMHO each life has an equal value so 1 Israeli life is equal to 1 Palestinian life. My opinion has exactly the same value or not as yours. The difference is that I don't preach hatred, genocide or mass murders. Thank you for reminding me about 1933 when Jews were being slaughtered. A pity you forgot to mention homosexuals, gypsies, Poles, Hungarians and everybody else slaughtered by the Germans, but of course to you only the Jewish people matter. It seems odd that you mention 1933, as it is now the Israelis who are doing the slaughtering, the genocide, starving the population, because, after all 1 Israeli life is worth at least 100 Palestinian lives according to you.

IMHO, I don't think that the whole western world backs Israel any more.

I agree with Hummin 100%. The is NO right on either side but Israel has slaughtered 30,+++ men women and children, injured 70+++ more men women and children, and still people on here defend them saying that Israel has the right to exist. So does Palestine and the Palestinian people, who at the moment are being systematically starved by Israel, who have blocked of access to food, medical supplies, electricity, water, fuel etc. They steal Palestinian land, houses and move illegal Israeli settlements and people in their place. They have a total land, sea and air blockade of Gaza and when challenged, they deny anything and everything and blame it all on Hamas or anybody else.

They are NOT mercenaries, but volunteers who are part time rangers. She was NOT executed but MURDERED whilst off duty, by a cowardly terrorist, masquerading as a civilian and a human being, who was so bold and brave that he ran away

I can comfortably, carefully and slowly drive to the big village 6 km away and reasonably happy enough to drive to the Amphur village 13 km away. Further than that I ask my wife to drive me. I would like an electric trike or 4 wheeler with a roof and a windscreen but there are few to be seen out here, though electric trikes and scooters are getting more popular.

Good for you. The nearest new car dealers to me are still 65km away. You are obviously converted whole heartedly to EVs. I am not, and I doubt at 79 that I ever will be.

Are you not big enough, old enough and capable enough to search for that information yourself?

Do you really believe anything that a Thai politician (or any other countries politicians for that matter) say. It doesn't matter to Thailand what anybody on ANN says. None of us, and I include me, has a voice or a vote in Thailand. So why bother what ahs or will happen to Thaksin. It has been agreed with the highest person in Thailand and I don't think that anybody in their right mind, wants to argue with that person. It is purely a Thai problem, and one that they alone have to deal with.

Absolutely correct. And if I can't charge it at home, then I have a very expensive flat useless battery. Come back and tell us all how much a new battery will cost when it needs replacing. Tell us all what the second hand value of your EV is worth at 5 or 6 years old. You keep plugging the virtues of EV but never mention what happens if it breaks down. How many garages can actually repair them, and where are those garages in relation to your home?

I was up in Kamphaeng Phet city yesterday and I saw about 8 EV in total. There is even a BYD dealer in the city as well. For all the wonderful claims about EV its will be interesting in a few years time to see how the owners react, when they have to replace the battery or try to sell the car. That will be when the value of an EV will show its true value. For me. at 79, the only EV I am interested in purchasing is an electric trike or 4 wheeler, with perhaps a 100 km range to get me to the shops in the local village 6 km away, or the Amphur village 15 km away.

Thailand may have an oversupply of public charging stations in the big cities and on the main highways, but the charging stations OFF highway and big cities in the majority of rural Thailand that I know of, are rare. The nearest public charging station to me is 60 km away.

Apart from you, who really cares whether you believe it or not?

Why do YOU need to know, especially as it is not your problem.

Why not send him an email and ask him?

That would be a wrong assumption but the choice is yours, You seem to assume that many more people agree with you than disagree with you, which is also not correct.

But the topic is about Quote from the OP, "EU moves towards using €27bn in profit from frozen Russian assets for Ukraine", and NOT about corruption in the Ukraine. Further quote from you 'We, as if you didn't know, is myself and anyone that agrees with me'. And "we' is NOT an all encompassing everybody, but only you and those that agree with you, which not the same thing at all.

If you mention the Ukraine and the frozen Russian assets, how is mentioning Russia a deflection? Actually I don't know who "we" is. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/we plural in construction 1 : I and the rest of a group that includes me : you and I : you and I and another or others : I and another or others not including you —used as pronoun of the first person plural "we" in this case certainly NOT include me or possibly millions of other posters. It would include you. but not necessarily any one else.

And Russia of course, is pure and innocent and has no corruption. BTW who is "we"?

It does, IF you trust any news report coming from inside Russia, and disbelieve everything said by the rest of the world. I also does, IF you believe in anything that Putin says.

And you know this how exactly? Have you died and come back again? If that is what she believes then good for her. At least she has something that she can believe in. Have you? I try never to mock or disbelieve anybody's unless they are trying to ram it down my throat. Just because you don't believe in reincarnation doesn't make you right or her wrong simply because she has faith and believes in it. It is HER choice to make, and not yours to make for her.

I have 2 fridge freezers and now only 1 freezer that are running 24/7. There are always fans on 24/7. 2 are wall mounted near my computer desk and are on low until lunchtime. medium until about 4 pm and on high until about 11 pm. According to my little weather station it is 32C indoors and 33.7c outside. At night they go off and I turn on the fan in the bedroom to max and run the a/c for about an hour to cool me down. The water from the shower comes from my storage ongs which are surface mounted outside and the water is warm to hot by lunchtime and my showers are just above lukewarm, but only once a day as there is a shortage of water here in rural Kamphaeng Phet. I have a 200 litre barrel of water in the shower, but even that is not cold anymore.

They will all leave with bulging pockets, even though between them they have managed to leave a company with its reputation in shreds. Bean counters are great when you need beans counted, but they should NEVER be the ones in control of ANY engineering company. No engineering company was ever built up by bean counters, but by engineers who choose quality over quantity and cheapness. Hopefully it is not too late for Boeing to survive this made in house crisis, but only if the beanies are locked up under tight control. If you pare costs to the bone , you have no slack to cut. If you want cheap, you can get that easily. If you want quality, that costs more but it is worth it.

As will quite a few posters here on ANN.
