     I paid Privet for a Diagnosis, They said they found Nothing  10.000 baht  for 12 vitamin B tablets, and two   isotopic drinks. After a week of felling unwell, my wife took me to a Government Hospital,  At 2 am , within   4 hours they had took blood test and come to a conclusion , And they where spot on , I had Leukemia. So   dont knock Government hospitals. I wanted to pay but they said no, So  i left some money to buy food for   the poor people in the hospital. that was the least i could do,

    Glad it worked out for you!  I've also read stories that go the other way.  Sadly, it's hit and miss here.

     

    Just had a friend visit some 4 hospitals in Bangkok.  Government and private.  All misdiagnosed her cancer.  Finally, one got it right.

    consider if a gang of 20 masked white men firebombed a mosque in Europe and the muslims were all terrified for their lives hiding in the basement. Mate, that would be headline news on CNN for a month. Why do liberals always try hiding muslim violence?

    And why do conservatives always try to make the smallest thing international headline news?

    This is horseshit. It doesn't say what these people were doing in Thailand (and hence their suitability to give honest answers to all questions).

     

    My guess would be that most Americans visiting Thailand on holiday would be clueless about who Prayuth is. And those who do know he is a junta leader.

     

    Absurd

    Read the OP.  It clearly says tourists.

    No, it proves that a larger, well equipped (with more advanced technology), well disciplined, well motivated, well supplied, well supported force, with complete control of the air (the opposition having no air force or ability to deliver long range aerial weaponry or contest the airspace) commanded by competent and reliable officers, gets to beat a bunch of bearded losers (with none of the aforesaid strengths) sucked into a dusty, miserable death by the promise of a handful of cash and free wife if they were to survive or, if they don't, a load of virgins (you tell me how many, I'm sure it's in your "Pocket Guide to Islam" free with "The Mail on Sunday") in .........."Paradise".

    And proves you don't have to use barrel bombs or chemical weapons on innocent civilians.

    This story has just taken a very violent turn. A synagogue in Gothenberg,Sweden has just been firebombed by a large gang of attackers, furious about the Palestinian situ. Not sure why this is not headlining in all media, maybe it needs time? The President of the Jewish Assembly in Sweden was inside the synagogue at the time of the attack.

     

     No excuse whatsoever for this violence. It is a disgrace.

    Why would it make international headlines?  Nobody was hurt, doesn't seem anything was burned.  Sure, it's horrible, but hardly worth of the headlines for international news.  Only a small amount of space there....

    Does this prove that drone strikes and army aggression can defeat strict islamic ideology? In the west we try smothering them with kindness, while cracking down severely on any opinions doubting the wisdom of this smothering with kindness strategy, although as can be seen with all the vehicular jihads we get it doesn't work so well.

     

     Well done to the Iraqi's for ridding their nation of strict islam, if true, this is great news.

    They had a lot of help.  And it was hardly smothering them with kindness. LOL

    Quote

    Since then, nine countries, allied with the US in some coalition, have also executed airstrikes on ISIL in Iraq, more or less in concert with ground warfare of Kurdish and/or Iraqi government forces against ISIL. There have also been sporadic clashes between ISIL fighters, and US and Canadian troops, several thousand of whom are acting in advisory and combat roles with Iraqi and Kurdish forces.[107][108] By April 2015, ISIL had lost 25–30% of the maximum territory they had gained in Iraq in December 2014, to Iraqi and American-led Coalition forces, leaving them in possession of around 15,000 square miles of Iraq.[109]

    Yes, that's true, but Trump lovers come from both sides as well.

     

    Without Dems voting for Trump he would not be president.

     

    As for the Trump haters in the GOP, Cooker and Flake are not seeking reelection.  They both know they would NOT survive a primary challenge.

     

    The balance of the GOP is pretty much getting on board. The tax cuts will provide tax relief to over 75% of taxpayers. Losers will be upper middle class and wealthy in the high tax states that pretty much vote Democratic.

     

    Problem for the GOP will be Roy Moore, but I heard tonight there are 20 to 30 members in Congress being investigated for sexual harassment. If true, this is a mess for both parties.  Further, after supporting Clinton and Ted Kennedy, the Dems can't really claim the moral high ground. 

    Amazing some still buy into Trump's BS.  This isn't about Dems vs. Republicans.

    Sorry to disappoint all of the Trump haters on TV, but many Dems support Trump's decision.

    Even Schumer, Senate minority leader, encouraged Trump to do this.  

     

    So terribly, terribly sorry that life is more complicated than the simple minded Trump haters would make you believe,

    Trump haters come from both sides of the isle.  Sorry to disappoint the Trump lovers, but even many Republicans hate Trump.

     

    Keep UP!

    I am not disputing that at all, but the post I was responding to (1) implied that the Mullahs were executing attacks themselves rather than sponsoring them; (2) made no mention of any other state sponsors of violence. It may seem pedantic, but I think it leads to a blinkered picture of what is already a very fuzzy picture.

    Understood!  A very fuzzy picture for sure.  One few of us really understand.

    I am not sure why you included the Iranian mullahs in there as, as far as I am aware, they do not commit acts of terror themselves. They may sponsor the acts of others, but history, historical and modern, is full of examples of governments covertly supporting nefarious organisations.

    The Iranian Mullahs are at the heart of terrorism in the region.

            Yes.... but where is their equivalant to ISIS, Al Quaeda, The Armed Islamic Group, Boko Harum, Al Shabaab, Abu Sayyaf, the Taliban,  and the Mullahs of Iran ...ad infinitum ?  

                  Do these Christians permit Muslims to build mosques? 

         Many Muslim areas do not allow you to build a Christian church or Synagogue or temple of any other religion. 

    Agreed! The Muslim militants are much more violent.  But Christians still burn mosques down.  And a lot of the Muslim anger is due to the West's exploitation of Africa and the Middle East.  Here's but one example.

    Decades after Belgium ended its colonial rule in Congo in 1960, and a century after the atrocities committed in Congo Free State — a region exploited by King Leopold II as a source of wild rubber, palm oil and ivory under a brutal rule that killed at least 10 million Congolese — Belgians are slowly beginning to confront this troubled history.

     

    Memories are long.

    Hassan al-Banna founded the Muslim Brotherhood in the city of Ismailia in March 1928 along with six workers of the Suez Canal Company, as a Pan-Islamic, religious, political, and social movement.[64]

    ......

    According to al-Banna, contemporary Islam had lost its social dominance, because most Muslims had been corrupted by Western influences.

    ......

    Al-Banna was populist in his message of protecting workers against the tyranny of foreign and monopolist companies.

    It has to be faced ,nothing anybody does or does not do will pacify Islam , it is out to become the dominant religion ,its what Mohamed preached and it is what they are after , they will do anything to further this aim ,

    And how is that different from Christianity?  Ever been to Africa and seen all the churches?  One after the other as you head down the road.  Baptist, Catholic, etc, etc, etc.

  13. It won't be that bad.  Heavy, but OK.  Give yourself some extra time and you'll be fine.  I do believe the new tolls go into effect on the first.  If so, that should help out a lot, keeping the trucks off the highway.

     

    The airport will be busy...just give yourself some extra time.  Worst case, you're there early enjoying a cup of coffee....or beer! LOL

    'A very rational actor': Experts dispute Trump's depiction of Kim Jong Un and North Korea

    North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un is not crazy, but a “rational actor” focused on regime survival, according to senior CIA officials.

    North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un is not crazy, but a “rational actor” focused on regime survival, according to senior CIA officials.

    Despite a backdrop of increasingly provocative long-range missile tests and Pyongyang’s sixth nuclear test in September, the young despot has a clear strategy to protect his own position as supreme leader, argue US intelligence analysts.

    http://www.cetusnews.com/news/Kim-Jong-un-is-not-crazy-but-a--rational-actor---CIA-officials-state.rJ2VcW-ToNhb.html

     

    Not that I believe these so-called experts. After all, they didn't call Kim Jong UN "fatboy" even once. That nickname being an infallible indicator of serious thought on the subject.

    Any leader of a country, responsible for the lives and well being of their citizens, who places them into slavery, kills them for falling asleep in a meeting, and creates famines, is crazy.  Horrible man.  The world would be a better place without him.  The average North Korea definitely would.

     

    Amazing you keep supporting this nut.  He's trying to survive and live a luxury life at the expense of his people.
