  1. Are you sure about that? According to the article below, it is illegal to euthanize dogs in Thailand unless they have rabies. Thailand's Stray Dogs - Off the streets
  2. So you don't think that for example, advocating for a white ethnostate is an extreme position, located well to the right of the spectrum in politics?
  3. Yeah, like this bunch, apparently. Republicans Carry Around Cups of Fake J.D. Vance Semen
  4. I'd be surprised if the dogs were to be killed. The public here have a deep-seated cultural and religious-based aversion to euthanising animals.
  5. Seems like his supporters have other things to keep them occupied. And to think some people were accusing them of being weird. As if. Republicans Carry Around Cups of Fake J.D. Vance Semen
  6. In my experience, Hua Hin is one such immigration office. Every time I've done my yearly extension, they've always done me a new 90 day report.
  7. She's talking about the parliamentarians who voted for her. Under Thailand's electoral system, the people do not vote for the prime minister directly, as is the case in numerous parliamentary systems.
  8. We already know the answer to that - yes, they can.
  9. Revolut may not be a fully-fledged UK bank just yet, but they're well on the way to becoming one. Revolut receives UK banking licence
  10. Just off the top of my head. Trump has cheated on his wives, he has cheated many subcontractors who worked for him (sending some into bankruptcy), he has cheated the people who signed up for worthless courses at his university, he has cheated banks by overvaluing his assets to get better loan deals, he has cheated the IRS by undervaluing the same assets, he has cheated multiple venues where his rallies were held (by not paying them), he has cheated many of his lawyers (by not paying them). Oh, and he also cheats at golf - admittedly a less serious matter but it just goes to show that he cheats at every single opportunity he gets.
  11. Why would you do that, when the data shows that the US economy does much better under Democrats than under Republicans? Economic performance is stronger when Democrats hold the White House
  12. "Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced on August 15 that Ukrainian forces had fully captured the Russian town of Sudzha in Kursk Oblast. Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrskyi confirmed that Ukrainian troops have seized control of over 80 settlements, with 1,150 square kilometers of Russian territory now under their authority. A military administration is being established in Sudzha, and Ukraine plans to create a "security zone" to safeguard its border regions and disrupt Russian logistics." Zelensky Announces Complete Liberation of Sudzha, Kursk Oblast from Russian Control Establishing a Ukrainian military administration in Kursk - interesting. I wonder what that portends.
  13. Saw this on another forum. "Russian armed forces, progress indeed... 2022 - second best army in the world 2023 - second best army in Ukraine 2024 - second best army in Russia"
  14. As has been stated multiple times on this thread already - yes, it was a one time thing.
  15. If @henrik2000 is a national of any EU country, they are entitled to 60 day visa exempt entry. All 27 EU nations are on the list shown.
  16. So far, according to Russian sources the Ukrainians have taken 28 Russian settlements and a total of 12 civilians have been killed. Even if Russian sources are not overstating the casualties (which one would imagine they have every motive to do) that's less than one person killed for every two settlements taken. While every civilian casualty is one too many, that hardly sounds like "rampaging" to me. Putin told Ukraine controls 28 Russian settlements
  17. Do you have sources for any of those claims? Not only are these required by Forum rules, without such sources these are totally baseless statements anyway. Just as a reminder, the rules for the World News sub-forum state as follows. "Any alleged factual claims must be supported by a valid link to an approved credible source."
  18. The post didn't say Russia was, "threatening the west with it's war in Ukraine," it just said they were making threats [to the west]. And if you've blinked and missed those threats, you must have been blinking an awful lot. Here's just a smattering of them (and there's plenty more where these came from). https://www.theguardian.com/world/article/2024/may/06/russia-to-hold-battlefield-nuclear-drills-after-macron-and-cameron-comments Russia threatens UK military https://www.euractiv.com/section/politics/news/russian-embassy-in-stockholm-threatens-sweden-finland-over-nato-accession/ Russian Embassy in Stockholm threatens Sweden, Finland https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/jun/29/russia-condemns-nato-invitation-finland-sweden Putin issues fresh warning to Finland and Sweden https://news.err.ee/1609332807/russia-blames-and-threatens-baltics Russia blames and threatens Baltics https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cn44r9zjnpjo Putin warns Russia could provide weapons to strike West
  19. According to info on MG's website the "lifetime" warranty covers the specified components of the vehicle no matter how far it has been driven. It also applies to the vehicle's subsequent owners, not just the original owner (unlike many "lifetime" warranties). MG announces an extended lifetime warranty for High-Voltage Battery, Electric Drive Unit, and Power Electronic Bloc
  20. It seems as though Trump was in an emergency helicopter landing with a black politician - it just wasn't Willie Brown. The other Black politician who says he was with Trump in that near-fatal chopper crash
  21. Did you watch the video? As far as I can tell from what I see there, this was a petrol-engined BMW.
  22. His electric boats/shark story wasn't even the best (worst?) example of his inability to string consecutive coherent sentences together. Just look at this gobbledygook from a speech he gave in January. I'm not sure how anyone could read this and not recognise the clear signs of cognitive decline. Trump keeps losing his train of thought. Cognitive experts have theories about why
  23. Seems not all Russians are necessarily all that unhappy to see Ukrainian soldiers in their cities. This one appears quite sanguine about it all. A russian living in Kursk ( russia ), sums up today's events in the Kursk region https://x.com/intermarium24/status/1821322068971094393
  24. You don't need to. Although one potential applicant was told a minimum 3 month course was required, another person was told there was no minimum duration needed. But nowhere was it ever suggested that whatever course you're on for the soft power option, would have to last five years.
  25. It came from @Hanaguma saying (or at least implying) that she does not share in the Black American experience, partly because she is not a descendant of slaves. Given that her father is Afro-Jamaican however, there is every possibility that some of her ancestors on her father's side, were indeed slaves.
