My guess is a talented negotiator could resolve this in a few meetings. Assuming both sides are interested in settling this. It's quite possible that the Thai army is trying to justify their position and build up eroding confidence on the part of the public, in addition to trying to create reasons for the massive amounts of money that they're sucking out of the treasury every year.

A ridiculously silly underestimate of Iran's wealth, and willingness to use that to rain terror upon the west and upon the US in particular.

Well we knew there were going to be repercussions and blowback, and I believe the blowback is only starting and it could last decades. Iran is a lot more powerful than Afghanistan or Iraq, and Trump doesn't know who he's fooling with. Let's call the increase in gasoline prices and inflation the Trump taxes.

I disagree, I think it's still an incredibly forum, I think there are a lot of knowledgeable and articulate members who post valuable information and I think it's always been forum for us to vent and complain. However I think the real difference is that MAGA has made many people more divisive and they have reduced a lot of supporters to being gullible whiners and snowflakes.

This useful idiot is also being a puppet for the extremely dark and sinister deep state, who control whoever is in power. One thing is absolutely certain Trump, is not making the big decision.

We have a lot of choices in life and many men actually choose to be emasculated and subservient.

Always assume all social media is the enemy, and treat them as such. Alot of people are an open book online, and that can't be healthy.

One can only hope this works out. This could end up being Trump's Vietnam or Afghanistan, a 20 year war costing trillions. The difference being that neither of those nations had the kind of money that Iran has, nor the oil reserves, and the kind of international influence when it comes to terrorist organizations. The secondary aspect of this is that Iran has one of the most talented hacking teams on the planet so the amount of misery, damage and terror that they can rain down upon the US Mainland is unfathomable. Trump of course doesn't know this because he's not someone who possesses any vision, he never reads anything, nor does he pay attention to his intelligence briefings. So he lives in a blissful state of ignorance 24/7, but some of us know better. I'm not a supporter of Iran, nor am I a supporter of terror, however the way Trump goes about things is always wrong, he never gets it right.

Let us hope. Her toxic father is using all his influence to avoid the humiliation they richly deserve after being a party to a stolen "pseudo democratic election".

From the man who would have said absolutely anything to get elected he doesn't have a sincere bone in his body. MARCH 2023: “There’s a very easy negotiation to take place. But I don’t want to tell you what it is because then I can’t use that negotiation; it’ll never work,” Trump told Fox News Channel host Sean Hannity, claiming that he could “solve” the war “in 24 hours” if he were back in the White House. “But it’s a very easy negotiation to take place. I will have it solved within one day, a peace between them,” Trump said of the war, which at that point had been ongoing for more than a year since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. "I think we're on the way to getting peace," Trump told reporters in the Oval Office. "I think President Putin wants peace, and President Zelenskyy wants peace. I want peace. I just want to see people stop getting killed."

This could end up being Trump's Vietnam or Afghanistan, a 20 year war costing trillions. The difference being that neither of those nations had the kind of money that Iran has, nor the oil reserves, and the kind of international influence when it comes to terrorist organizations.

This is of course a total insult to the Thai people but they're kind of used to being put in a very subservient position, and never considered when it comes to leadership. The Toxin family needs to go, everybody knows it and it's just a matter of time, be rid of the dinosaurs.

Totally against anything that even resembles reform or forward progress. They represent the status quo and will do anything to protect the elite.

You have proved my hypothesis. Your dignity is unsurpassed.

There are a lot of fabulously ignorant doctors out there, and typically doctors do not believe in diet, herbal supplements or other things that can be used to boost the immune system and create a healthy environment for the body. They have no idea and they're completely unwilling to even admit that there might be a connection. To my mind, that's the ultimate definition of ignorance.

Trump is deeply unpopular, though many people agreed with his ideas, the way he has carried them out has been horrific, and the man has been a failure once again, just look at the numbers.

1. Hun Sen is a former Pol Pot officer, a serial killing super freak, a land-grabbing billionaire, and a genocidal maniac who has been posing as a democratic leader for decades, and has now installed his son in his place, like fiefdoms did centuries ago. 2. The young PM is a total incompetent, who has no skills whatsoever, she never should have been installed, and is there only because her ridiculously toxic father made a deal with the army to return without consequences, whom she has now betrayed. Be gone young woman. Try to be of some use to your people.

OK. 12,000 covid cases and how many flu cases? How many highway deaths? How many deaths from other causes? And why isn't that news?

I think it's safe to say that in general foreigners are better drivers than Thais. We've had more training, we're more attentive, more respectful, and we don't do the kind of inane risk-taking that many Thais do with their entire families in their car. The only way to survive here on the road, is to be patient, have eyes in the back of your head, drive with caution, and always, and I mean always watch out of the other guy. Chances are, he does not have much driving skill, nor patience, nor reason, nor common sense. You cannot be too careful on the road here. Especially considering that the toy police offer no traffic safety, prevention, enforcement of the law, or concern toward the prosecution of very reckless drivers. Those of us with driving skill, and a strong desire for not only survival, but the avoidance of terrible injury, are constantly scanning the road, in front of us, beside us, and behind us. There are an exceptionally high number of reckless fools on these roads, and it is the only way to preserve our lives, and those of our families, and friends, who may be driving with us, and depending on us.

Plenty. A healthy diet, low sugar consumption, plenty of exercise, and all the other things that keep your immune system strong.

Are you always verbally abusive? Is that who you really are?

Correct. And those are quite easy to avoid.

All of the Southern Islands have been decimated over the years with way too many tourists, way too much development, and a commercialism that's rivaled only by Southwestern Bali, which is hell on earth. The only southern island left that has any semblance of normalcy is perhaps Koh Phangan, which is still quite delightful.

There's no doubt that Hun Sen leaked this tape, what his motivations were is anybody's guess. The man is a pig and a despot and anytime anybody goes after him it's a good thing for humanity, so I sure hope he's feeling the squeeze right now. But, I doubt he feels anything. Worms don't have sensation.

You are absolutely correct, Trump getting elected and behaving as he's been recently has been a wet dream for China and the CCP, he is making them more influential by the day, and he is turning a lot of folks towards China who previously felt adversarial towards them. What a spectacular goon, my guess is that history will record him as one of the dumbest, most ignorant, and greatest failures ever. No doubt the 2nd worst president in US history.
