I am a boomer. Never had an interest in spending time in Israel. Like the people. Hate the recent politicians. Lehava, Rabbi Kahane, Otzma Yehudit are just a few of the slimeball hate mongers Netanyahu appears to be teaming up with.

Thank you. I am rather proud of myself, too. Nothing like a good immune system to fight off a flu type bug.

I have been ostracized by many Jews in America who feel that it's simply not permitted to oppose any kind of policy that Israel proposes, ever. The key word here is no resistance, no objections, no arguments, just follow the rules like a sheepdog. Sorry, homey don't play that game and neither is he PC.

Well I am not anti-Israel, but I do object to a lot of the positions the Israeli government has taken over the years, and I also realize that as a moderate American Jew I'm really not allowed to take that position, but I take it anyway.

Settle where? Israel is one of the last places in the world I would want to live. Never even wanted to visit.

I will not be taking any more covid or booster shots now or at any time in the future. I've already had covid and it was no big deal. I'm going to depend on my body's immune system rather than continuing to support Big Pharma, in their quest to earn additional tens of billions of dollars. No thanks. I don't need it.

A reasonable solution would be to treat him just like any other man who commits manslaughter, and perhaps even charge him with murder. Maybe when a man is drunk the charges need to be escalated, there needs to be a deterrent after all for a society to maintain some form of order. So lock the guy up for at least 20 years, however since he's RTP we know that's likely not going to happen. The RTP. Above any and all laws.

Perhaps if Israel had been more proactive in seeking a peaceful solution, none of this would have happened. It would appear a two state solution is the only way for Israel to see peace. Slaughtering thousands of women and children, in a genocidal manner, goes against everything the nation was founded upon.

Absolutely correct, this is certainly no way to resolve the situation, but the extremists in Israel are not interested in a resolution. As you say they are interested in a complete takeover, they want to force the Palestinians out, or control them with an iron fist. Like Russia, they do not seem to be bothered by the slaughter of innocent women or children. Moral bankruptcy?

Good work guys uncover as much corruption as you can and when you're finished with these guys why don't you investigate Prayuth, Prawit, and the top 200 generals in Thailand?

Excellent news. I think the elephants intuitively know how harmful sugarcane is for the environment and they're doing their best to try to improve the air quality of the nation. Since the lazy, good for nothing politicians won't do anything, maybe the elephants are taking it into their own hands, or feet should I say? Bravo!

It would appear after the recent sellout of PT to the highly toxic and heinous army, that the entire Thaksin family has become almost completely irrelevant. My woman's family who used to be avid supporters won't even talk about them anymore. I think most of Issan has abandoned the Shinawatras, they tarnished their legacy for good, by jumping into bed with the wrong reptiles.

Any time of year Russia is an absolute pit of desolation. I would need a sponsor to come up with $75,000 cash, to even consider a visit to that God forsaken land.

They need to stop making predictions. They are always wrong. Too many variables. And they keep forgetting two things. 1. Thailand is not the center of the known universe. 2. Thailand needs foreign tourists 100x more than they need Thailand. 3. When extreme cowards keep a county closed for far longer than they needed to, out of fear of the zombie apocalypse, it takes time to restore the industry. 4. Whitewashing and homogenizing a nation, engaging in fake purity campaigns, ridding the nation of street vendors, shutting down the nightlife and putting millions out of work, while favoring cronies, is not smart, and the end result is a less interesting place to visit.

He was terrible the first time around. And it was likely he was only allowed to sit as PM, because they knew how awful and ineffective he would be. They love mediocrity. Sretta is proof of that.

A total over reaction. All metals fluctuate. Gold and silver have been climbing for a while. Corrections are totally normal. Unfortunately, bad journalism is too.

My experience has been that people with high self-esteem are not always defensive and trying to hide truth, however the leadership here seems to suffer from major self-esteem issues and therefore are very defensive. The nationalism issue does not help either.

In his case the 2024 models are already out and they're attempting to sell the 2023 models at the same price which is pretty crazy right?

It is they who are mean and mercenary. A dozen good friends who attest to that. Whatever works for you. I am from the US and enjoy spending time here. However, I have witnessed the dramatic decline in the quality of life. This will be my last reply. I applaud you for the passion you have, in defending a lifestyle that works for you.

I prefer a smart woman, who is Asian. Almost inevitably in the West, that same brain that gives you that stimulation, also tends to give you so much grief, it is not worth it, on any level. Always a debate, Always a competition. No thanks. I enjoy all of her other qualities, that make my day so delightful and fulfilling. I learned long ago that an intellectual woman, who can match me intellectually, also tends to be a combative woman, and the chance of harmony is low. I for one, love a harmonious house, where my woman is joyful and light hearted, with a great sense of humor, and an amazing attitude toward life, and us. Just my point of view. Whatever works for you, stick with it.

Are you referring to all English speakers, or just British? Some Brits have very strong accents. Most say Americans are fairly easy to understand. The accent, if they have one, is fairly flat.

An average looking woman here, is infinitely more fun and more attractive, than most gorgeous women back in the US, who are so hard, so lacking in femininity, so unappealing, and not sexy despite a great face and body. Most western women have completely lost the plot, and not only have no idea how appealing real femininity is to most men, but would be unable to express that quality, even if they tried.

No doubt if given the opportunity after breaking dozens of laws over the past decades, he would carry his toxic agenda much further. Towards fascism, no doubt. He is a huge danger, and he must be stopped.

Total fake purity nonsense. People know what is available here. The sex industry is rampant all over the world. Thailand is no different. It is just more transparent. In the West it is much further underground. They are not open and notorious, and sitting out in front of massage parlors. They are online, working as expensive escorts. They work massage, they work in the porn industry. They ply their trade on Tinder, as companions. Far less obvious, but it is the same thing. Equal or greater numbers, per capita. The big difference is the honesty of the Thai women, and the way they go about what they are doing. Far more transparency, and infinitely more delightful. They do not seem to be burdened by copious amounts of guilt or regret. They just do what they have to do, and get on with their lives. For me, that translates into integrity. Thai women, like all others come in many different shapes and forms. Many are really lovely women, who have the kind of heart, soul, and feminine nature a burned out, overly uber feminized women in the West cannot even conceive of. Same applies to the millions upon millions of SIMPS, and emasculated Western men out there. Many of us have met bargirls, or massage girls who are very kind, and are doing what they can to help out their families, who have next to nothing. The culture here gives them few alternatives. The authorities need to start behaving like adults, and come to terms with the industry.

Ignoring truth does not change it one iota. Sure, there are some good women in the West. I have a dozen friends back there who are decent looking guys, in good shape, who are smart and successful, and they have a very hard time even getting a date with a normal, well adjusted woman, who is decent looking. They are not making that up. It is their life! I am not making this up. I also have many friends here who are decent looking guys, in good shape, and who are smart and successful. Not the losers you insist we all are here. Good guys, with good Thai women. There are thousands who fit that bill on this forum. We all just got sick of a lower quality of life back in our native countries. And do not think for a moment, that your women would stay with you if you were broke. Money matters everywhere. Just a fact of life. Justify yourself all you need to, but do not deny reality and truth. That is not a helpful contribution to this thread.
