However horrific someone's crime may be, criminals shouldn't become judge, jury, and executioner inside prison. Justice should be administered by the courts through due process, not through violence or intimidation by other inmates.  If society believes the law should impose harsher penalties for the most serious offences, that's a debate to have through the legal system and democratic process.   But allowing prisoners to decide who deserves punishment undermines the rule of law and creates a system where violence, rather than justice, determines outcomes.   Once we accept vigilante justice in prison, we abandon the principle that everyone is entitled to legal protection, regardless of their crime.</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 01:47:44 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Thailand, Russia Deepen Ties in Kazan Talks</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397107-thailand-russia-deepen-ties-in-kazan-talks/?do=findComment&comment=20561173]]></link><description>Personally, I don&#x2019;t think that touting ties with a country that has openly invaded another European country so that it can expand its own borders, causing hundreds of thousands of deaths, is a good look.

The United States (CIA) and the United Kingdom (MI6) put the last Shah of Iran, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, in power by orchestrating a coup d'&#xE9;tat in August 1953.  Operation Ajax by the CIA&#x2014;overthrew Iran's democratically elected Prime Minister, Mohammad Mosaddegh, after he nationalized the country's oil industry. The 1953 coup eliminated the Prime Minister's political power and reinstated the Shah as an absolute monarch, cementing Western influence in the region The US and the UK wanted Irans Oil. The Shah's regime was overthrown because it was corrupt, repressive, and overly reliant on foreign powers, particularly the United States and the United Kingdom, at the expense of Iran's sovereignty and cultural identity. he was forced to flee ! Decades of resentment boiled over in 1979 regarding the U.S.-backed 1953 coup that overthrew Iran's prime minister and installed the autocratic Shah.  1979, the Carter administration allowed the exiled Shah into the United States for cancer treatment, a move that enraged Iranian revolutionaries who suspected it was a prelude to a U.S.-backed restoration.  The US and UK wanted the oil originally, The raid on the embassy was nothing to do with oil !</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 01:46:06 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Chicken BBQ rotisserie.</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397070-chicken-bbq-rotisserie/?do=findComment&comment=20561170]]></link><description>Well young man!

Be that industry, growth, foreign investment, tourism etc. Much of this lies with the political climate and failure to adapt / change, especially in the fundamentals like education and preserving the interests of the old order. Vietnam is more dynamic and forward looking while Thailand appears to be squandering its position as a more developed country. I don&#x2019;t expect any fundamental dawning to occur as those in power preserve their own interests. Sad really..</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 01:42:05 +0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
