It’s always nice to see new members, with the possibility they might voice opinions we’ve never heard before.Thu, 28 May 2026 10:47:34 +0000Thu, 28 May 2026 10:46:35 +0000I’m not at all convinced young people hate pensioners. There’s plenty of effort to stir hatred in British society, be that hatred of pensioners, young people, immigrants, women, men. LGBTQ, people adhering to any of the religions, motorists, cyclists, dog owners, cat owners, the list goes on. But do many people actually hate animals of these groups? Some do I’m sure, but I suspect they are a minority, and probably hate people from multiple groups, most of whom they’ve never met.Thu, 28 May 2026 10:44:55 +0000HK or SG is way more expensive than Thailand for med. treatment.

Finkelstein believes the political tide will turn. Despite Israel's record of militarism, illegal settlements, and human rights violations, American Jews have, stretching back to the 1960s, remained largely steadfast supporters of the Jewish 'homeland'. But, as Norman Finkelstein explains in an elegantly-argued and richly-textured new book, this is now beginning to change. the support of America Jews for Israel has begun to fray. This erosion has been particularly marked among younger members of the community. A 2010 Brandeis University poll found that only about one quarter of Jews aged under 40 today feel "very much" connected to Israel. As growing numbers of American Jews come to see the speciousness of the arguments behind such apologias and recognize Israel's record as simply indefensible, Finkelstein points to the opening of new possibilities for political advancement in a region that for decades has been stuck fast in a gridlock of injustice and suffering.Thu, 28 May 2026 10:43:38 +0000How can I "go check yrself" if I am not in Thailand? 😕 The reason I have raised the question about signs is that it helps to refute the notion that Israeli tourists are broadly disliked in Thailand. The truth always matters. It's an urban myth that many businesses in Thailand have signs that read "No Israeli tourists" or similar. That's what this thread helps prove and why it is important. I also have to emphasize another point: no doubt some members of AN dislike Israeli tourists, but that is simply because Israeli tourists are Jewish. It has nothing to do with the behavior of Israeli tourists. Exactly! 👍Thu, 28 May 2026 10:42:57 +0000Note to self: Pass on ze bugs, even if the locals say they're tasty.Thu, 28 May 2026 10:41:43 +0000Thu, 28 May 2026 10:40:03 +0000A complete moron, and this will never happen.

She migrated to Australia to get away from the Russians in Ukraine probably close to 70 years ago. She used to sob when she told me how the Russian soldiers treated young teenage girls such as herself. Some of the atrocities where horrendous. She told me how grateful she was for the Australian Government allowing her to apply for citizenship. She died a very happy person and at peace which never thought it would be possible living in Ukraine.Thu, 28 May 2026 10:32:08 +0000https://aseannow.com/thailand-news/lampang-officials-fall-ill-from-eating-local-insects-r2052/Several officials at Ban Huad Subdistrict Office in Lampang, Thailand, experienced stomach pain, diarrhoea, and dizziness after consuming insects collected from a tree outside the office. The incident, which prompted a public warning, led to several individuals requiring hospital treatment. On May 27, a rescuer posted the warning online, highlighting symptoms such as nausea and numbness among the affected. Get today's headlines by email The insects in question were identified as Pear Hoy Yak, or giant scale insects. Typically found on tree bark, these insects are notable for their white shell-like coating. One official, Porramate Boonma, reported finding the insects on a monkey pod tree at the office. Initially, one official consumed the insects with no ill effects, leading others to gather, deep-fry, and share them, mistakenly trusting their safety. Out of those who ate the insects, 12 reported immediate symptoms, while Porramate, who consumed less than 10, remained unaffected. Three officials required hospital care for further evaluation. Locals in the area are known to eat insects regularly, and past consumption had not resulted in similar adverse effects. Porramate speculated that the insects could have ingested sap from the monkey pod tree, possibly possessing laxative effects. However, this theory has not been confirmed medically. Social media conjecture included the possibility of confusion with another edible insect species. Join the discussion? Already a member?
