  1. I wouldn't put it past him to do that. They are so easily triggered.
  2. You beat me to it. I'd be more impressed if they were wanting a tribunal about a certain other country as well, but seems they are just a bunch of hypocrites.
  3. Two very different points in that paragraph. a/ I support Trump BECAUSE he is anti government. Most if not all my problems were/ are caused by governments not doing their job and wandering off into the weeds with moronic societal changing policies, like stealing my money to build cycle paths that hardly anyone uses because they hate cars. Anyone supporting small government gets my vote. b/ Bush encouraged the Shiites to rebel in Iraq and then failed to support them, resulting in the murder of tens of thousands by Saddam. Unfortunately history is littered with such incidents eg The British and the Cossacks in WW1, the allies and the Arabs in WW1, the US and the Vietnamese hill tribes and so on. Shameful by any government. However, comes a time to wake up and smell the coffee, and if it took the GOP this long to wake up to an unwinnable war in Ukraine, later is better than not at all.
  4. I support public nudity, but only by fit girls under 30 with no Cooper's droop.
  5. I knew loads of successful women, and no rich ones. The ones I knew worked in a real job, which meant they'd never get rich.
  6. Expensive. Cheaper on Soi 8. I remember when long time was 500 baht.
  7. LOL. Seems that just about everything we can buy in NZ now was made in China.
  8. Inflation is more about tv sets. I've noticed a big decrease in the amount of food I can buy for the same cost as last year.
  9. Isn't that illegal? I know it used to be, but perhaps they changed the law. If it is still illegal I hope a few farang criminals get a holiday in one of those lovely prison resorts. It's because of bad behaviour by crooks like that that the Thais are making it harder for farangs to stay in LOS.
  10. Yes David, it was very disturbing, but are you going to actually do anything other than get free flights and talk and waffle? Recommend the UK stops sending weapons perhaps- I'm not holding my breath on that.
  11. Gaza has never belonged to israel since 1947. Seems some posters don't understand the history of israel since 1947.
  12. What astounds me about this incident is that there are some on here that apparently applaud it and excuse it, or say things like they deserve it for being do gooders. Soon as it happened I thought it was an attempt to close down international aid, and on that it has succeeded, cue mass starvation.
  13. While we may disagree on a different topic, on this I am agreeing with every word you wrote there.
  14. Seems the poster you quoted doesn't understand what "friendly fire" is. It's when a side kills it's own, not when a side kills people it doesn't like. That's unfriendly fire.
  15. From what I just heard on radio news, it's got Biden riled enough to call netanyahu about it. Has netanyahu finally crossed a red line? Time will tell.
  16. Was there much there then at all? I heard it didn't get really started till the 80s. I know there were a few places to stay, but that would have been it. It would have been a ways to go there then. It took 4 hours from Bkk when I started visiting and they had proper roads then. Can't imagine GIs on R and R going there just to sit on a beach when they had GI bars and Patpong in Bkk.
  17. You mean when it was just a street? I don't recall it being much. Soi 8 was the place in the 90s
  18. If you don't like bars you'll love H H. Last time I was there ( it may have changed ) the night life was what you have when you don't have a night life. They had nice restaurants over the water, if they are still there. Otherwise, it was like being in suspended animation- not much going on.
  19. That sounds about right. Got to get the priorities sorted.
  20. When you said I love Trump you are lying. I don't love him though I'd prefer him over Biden/ Harris. Brewster67 said that which is italics below. He does not include the word Trump or Putin in it, which is what I was asking about. I didn't ask about a multipolar world. So, who is losing it? I can't agree... The world is changing fast, the east is rising and the west is declining... Countries like the UK have swept across the world for hundreds of years slaughtering people and stealing their wealth and resources and the UK was at the forefront of it. The multipolar world is taking off and the unipolar world led by the USA and their European sycophants in tow are in real danger... The multipolar world is made up of all the countries that have at one time or another been victims of the west and they have a huge axe to grind. The BRICS is about to explode with over 40 countries ready to join and another 50 countries interested... The 5 current members of BRICS have a collective GDP that is bigger than the combined G7 countries.... The BRICS countries within the next 2 years will hold up to 80% of the global oil and gas export markets.... The multipolar world is where the resources are that the west can't live without.... I see a seperation happening where the west will be cut off by the rest of the world which makes up 85% of the global population and they have a massive axe to grind with the west, they won't forget history... I can see them cutting the west off from trade and that will be the total collapse of the west. Nobody needs the west, they are drenched in debt, they live off the printing press, they are a fading market... The UK is probably going to take the biggest hit of all... They are cheerleading the USA on for war with China and ther Brits are desperate to be involved. If they think the sanctions on Russia backfired onto themselves, wait to see what sanctions on China does to them.
  21. How nice for them, but meanwhile people that do real jobs helping others like nurses and ambulance drivers continue to struggle to get by, and finding food and a place to live in that ordinary people can afford is becoming harder by the day. However, I'm so pleased that being pretty and singing pop songs is so rewarding.
  22. One hope that this might be a turning point for western countries. It's one thing when mere Palestinians are killed, hardly worth a yawn from our leaders, but when it's our own citizens being killed in a deliberate way it's a different matter. Questions may be asked in Parliament, news organisations may feel inclined to ask the questions they would not otherwise ask, it might even get on the MSM.
  23. Errr, I think you mean asymmetrical. Symmetrical implies the sides are evenly matched.
  24. That is an excellent comment. Probably call them Palestinian sympathisers and anti israel.
  25. The strike on the vehicle with the hole in the roof was absolutely targeted. A missile was aimed at the vehicle and fired with pinpoint accuracy. It entered through the roof and left an entry hole. It killed everyone in the vehicle. Images as seen on Al Jazeera.
