It is not a country I would choose to live in, but they are no Nazi Germany, nor are they the existential threat to Western civilization that U.S./Israeli interests would have us believe. Most importantly, they should be left alone to find their own destiny. Perverse interference in their country has led to perverse outcomes https://unherd.com/2026/05/why-iran-is-right-to-be-paranoid/ Amid the usual despotic cynicism, though, it’s also true that Iranian fears have often proved justified. In the most immediate sense, after all, President Trump has fulfilled many of the warnings that the late Ayatollah articulated. Less than a week before the US and Israel began their attacks, Steve Witkoff, the President’s favourite negotiator, wondered why Tehran hadn’t “capitulated”. There’s plenty more where that came from. A month into the conflict, Trump told the Financial Times he would have taken Iran’s oil but for “some stupid people” back in America, while the recent seizure of an oil tanker in the Gulf led the President to positively gloat. “It’s a very profitable business,” he said. “We’re like pirates.”Thu, 21 May 2026 08:46:48 +0000Judged or disliked.... either way the care factor is zero.Thu, 21 May 2026 08:46:41 +0000I provided the links.

I'm 74 now and have been in Thailand since 2010. We've made a nice life for ourselves here, with a house in Pattaya and a condo in Bangkok. Parents are dead, siblings are scattered all over; I'm not sure where we would even decide to live if we ever went back--certainly not in cold, expensive northern Virginia, where I lived for 35 years before coming here. I think, and I suspect there are many others the same, that I am now here for the duration, unless something drastic beyond my control happens and I am forced to leave. With spouse's siblings in Bangkok, we are thinking of moving to Bangkok in a couple years, after spouse, now 60, winds down his job here in Pattaya. We've started informally scouting Bangkok property and, I'll tell you what, we are totally spoiled by the much wider choice of housing available in Pattaya. If anybody knows of any housing projects in the IMPACT area with one-story pool villas for around 15MB, more or less, give me a holler. So far, we haven't found a single one--just lots of 2-story no pool housing projects with too small living rooms and too many upstairs bedrooms.Thu, 21 May 2026 08:41:38 +0000Palestinians will disappear from GazaThu, 21 May 2026 08:40:56 +0000I lived there on and off from 1998 to 2009.

Agree that Yookay will likely end up in a civil war - Northern Ireland style. Seems the establishment are actively encouraging it with the blatant 2 tier police and justice system. Eg. this week Henry Nowak (white w. Polish background), 18, was stabbed to death in a random attack by a Sikh man in the UK. When police arrived at the scene, they handcuffed Henry instead of helping him after the attacker lied to officers, claiming that Henry was just a drunk racist.). The rush to build out data centres and recent announcement of Digital IDs implies they're rushing to a CBDC control system but in order to push that through they need a 'crisis' to get normies to demand "Something must be done!" (likely the much tighter controls on everything the top top top money people want - a control grid enforced by control of your spending tokens).

I truly hope the predictions don't come true. A psychiatrist who has long questioned Donald Trump’s mental fitness has issued a stark warning about the US president’s second term, claiming there may now be “no adults in the room” capable of restraining him from extreme military action. Dr John Gartner, a former Johns Hopkins University professor, said during a podcast interview that Trump’s political dominance inside the Republican Party had reached a dangerous new stage after Kentucky congressman Thomas Massie reportedly lost political ground following criticism of the president. ‘No Backstop Left Around Him’ Speaking on The Daily Beast Podcast, Gartner claimed Trump had become increasingly “disinhibited” and argued that senior figures who once challenged him inside government are no longer present. “We don’t have General Mattis, we don’t have John Kelly, we don’t have Rex Tillerson,” Gartner said. “There are no more adults in the room.” He argued Trump is now surrounded by loyalists unwilling to resist presidential decisions, particularly on national security and military escalation. Nuclear Strike Claim Raises Alarm Gartner went further, predicting the US could eventually wake up to news that Trump had authorised a first nuclear strike. “I believe that this is going to happen because he wants to do it,” he said during the interview, describing what he claimed was a pattern of deteriorating judgement and impulse control. The psychiatrist has previously argued that Trump displays signs consistent with frontotemporal dementia, a neurological condition linked to behavioural changes and impaired decision-making. Gartner has never personally examined Trump, and no official diagnosis has been made public. Political Climate Fuels Concern The comments come as tensions remain high over US policy toward Iran and widening instability in the Middle East. Critics of the administration have increasingly raised concerns about decision-making inside the White House as Trump tightens his grip over the Republican Party. Gartner argued recent political developments show dissent inside the party is rapidly disappearing. “There are literally no men or women in elected political office as a Republican who isn’t blindly lockstep following him,” he said. The White House has not responded to the remarks. Psychiatrist makes frightening prediction about Trump's decline: 'He wants to do it'Thu, 21 May 2026 08:32:02 +0000
