sounds like you got more sense than Desperate Don. He bombed Iran - but forgot to top up the US oil reserves.

Remind me of the score to date: approx. 1200 in that despicable act by the cowardly Hamas and 50-70K in Gaza. Even if we assume 20,000 Hamas were killed, that leaves 30-50k of 'collateral damage' by the IDF. In Israel, they call them ''dogs''...This week - during one of Israel's infamous perfidious ''ceasefires'' 650 citizens of Gaza were killed. you're missing the point - actually, you are deflecting - a classic pro-Israel skill. Fatwas are religious edicts, you don't go to Muslim hell if you don't follow them. However, the EFFECT, has been to allow enrichment and to deny the development of a bomb. MY belief has nothing to do with it. The fact is, Fatwas are effective, since Iran's military has not developed a bomb, since the first first fatwa was issued in 2003 by Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's Fatwa. It banned the production, stockpiling, and use of nuclear weapons. What you should be worried about is, the head of the snake has been cut off - with the result that the new guy (whose father, mother, wife and son were just wiped out) is going to unleash Hell. All thanks to Desperate Don.

i have ex friends, still on the DJT bandwagon, denying any kind of reality except for the Don's. as a general question - what are these people going to do when he get too ill or the his term ends.? a huge spike in suicides - or something akin to the Walking Dead ?

i was a non-believer in all these boxes with batteries being driven around. I guess i ought to buy shares in one of the companies and Built My Own Dream. 555

sorry to disappoint you. quote from the Israeli PM's press conference last evening : 'Israel is being attacked because it is a Jewish state. Antisemitism knows no limits or boundaries' .. the Israeli PM is, to put it mildly, crazy - but crazy like a fox. Black is white and while is black? Who just attacked who? Who just bbq'd the religious head (albeit the devil in disguise) of less than 50% of the Muslim religion. ? This was something completely irrational, as that religious head (granted his supreme evilness) issued TWO Fatwa's, forbidding the development of nuclear weapons. As a result - replace him with a man who is far more fanatical,, is pro nuclear bomb development, and has seen his dad, wife and son toasted on the Israeli BBQ?

there you go again, another poster who doesn't know the difference between being anti-Israeli and being anti-Semite (anti-Jewish). this is the classic ''deflection'' tactic of Israel. the couple of Jewish friends I know abhor this latest war, because it is all about territorial expansion by Israel; it has dragged the US into a war it gets no benefit from and, ultimately - the ultimate risk - if Israel feels threatened enough, I will bet dollars to donuts that mad man''BiBi'' will nuke Iran.

you're quite observant. what do you suggest, we do - that Thailand declares war on Iran.?

after reading your profile quotation, Yagoda: ('A live human and not a bot who enjoys a Peaceful World thanks to Donald Trump, Leader of the Free World and Your Boss') .... you might want to reconsider the wording, before you become the laughing stock of this forum 555

anyone believing the Department of War propaganda ought to be put back in kindergarten

Proof that Trump is incredibly short-sighted - and a liar.The US was in negotiations to reinstate a nuclear oversight program. There was no threat to the US. But now he's willing to risk American lives - notably other lives not his valued shin spurs. Just like the 2nd last Republican Pres., Bush 'Junior' - he is completely unaware of the realities of US foreign policy regime change. After Saddam Hussein got hung out to dry, and the US left, Iraq completely destabilized, resulting in a sectarian civil war, the rise of armed militias, and a power vacuum that led to an Al-Qaeda-led insurgency and the eventual rise of ISIS. anybody seen the documentary Fahrenheit 9/11? Michael Moore’s documentary questioning the Bush administration’s lie-strewed justification for the Iraq war.

Trump has not earned the title 'TACO' for nothing, except this time, there is no option to change his mind, about going to war, on the bidding of that war criminal, Netanyahu.

hello, Nigel, not at all surprised to see you here, having abandoned your homeland.

excellent premier league footballers, for sure..

blow back from the 2nd (mini) Holocaust?

thanks to all the positive vibes.

thanks - but all Canadians know how to do DD. do i sound like I have a stutter :)

just in: ''we found your passport''. now I will have to wait for someone to ' stop acting the maggot' as they say in South Dublin . 555

'the windmills the windmills' .... the horror of it all. (appologies to Colonel Kurtz ). I rest my case.

get a grip, mateycock.

i was sensible enough ( a rarity) to photo copy my passport before sending it the the Embassy. I am hoping that will help. i have developed a good relationship with the new head officer at IO. (fruit & wine) :)

latest is a response from Embassy, to my request for a letter explaining the situation, addressed to Immigration: ' Well noted and please accept our sincere apologies that we misplaced your passport. But if we could not find it – we will issue you an official letter for Thai immigration. its difficult to get any sense of urgency on their part. there are 3 weeks to go to the annual retirement extension deadline.

the embassy say THEY have mislead it. 9

damaged passport sent to the Embassy in Bangkok, in Dec 5. just had a call last week, to say they have mislaid it and if in fact did I include it with my application for a replacement passport. ( i did) but I'm sorta maybe screwed because i sent them an email, dec 6, listing my enclosures, which they never replied to. ChatGPT says I should seek a letter from the Embassy, addressed to Immigration describing the problem (I've done that last week). then, IF I get such a letter, i should get my axx in gear and head down to IO to seek an extension. does anyone have any addition advice. ? tia.

if you want to rate Trump capabilities, just check out his history for declaring multiple bankruptcies in order to avoid his debts. when told by advisors that soaring debt may generate a crisis years down the road, Trump reportedly said, Yeah, but I won't be here". i wish the US would make a law requiring a stupidity test, before allowing you to vote.
