Former Army Chief Set to Lead Neo-Conservative Party
Prayut is not the leader nor even a member of the United Thai Nation party, which is what the Ruam Thai Sang Chart party became. He was appointed a privy councillor in mid July 2023, and thus is barred from belonging to any political party. He resigned from politics on the spot. But as a PC, who knows what influence that body of ultra royalists brings to bear on Thai politics. -

Revisiting History: The Unlikely Campaign to Vilify Winston Churchill
This level of misrepresentation is starting to look deliberate now, very clearly the article states that 435 people died from the RAF bombing Wilhelmshaven, and the only reason the death toll was so low was because of the extensive bunkers which provided protection. Otherwise the death toll would have been considerably higher. But again, obviously this is a deflection. In reality, as I stated repeatedly, the British area bombing started around May 1940. Silesia was of course not the only territory the Poles annexed from Germany after 1918. Poland also annexed the following: Most of the Prussian province of Posen (This territory, btw, had already been taken over by local Polish insurgents during the Great Poland Uprising of 1918–1919, ie before it was ceded by Versailles) 70% of West Prussia (Polish Pomerania) along with a 10% German minority, creating the so-called Polish corridor. The east part of Upper Silesia was awarded to Poland after a plebiscite. Sixty percent of residents voted for German citizenship, and 40 percent for Poland; as a result the area was divided - you can see how mendacious this is, the majority wanted to be part of Germany, but rather than accept the plebiscite the territory was still divided. To provide a Polish railway line connecting Danzig and Warsaw, the area of Soldau in East Prussia was annexed by Poland . From the eastern part of West Prussia and the southern part of East Prussia in the provinces of Ermland and Masurien, this area was annexed too by Poland. It is also important to realise that all of these lands were historically German and inhabited by Germans. These were not historically Polish lands. So the territorial piracy of Poland was shameless, extensive and on a grand scale. Of course negotiation and compromise would have been better, this was seriously attempted by Germany. But with the British whispering in the Polish ear, concede nothing, of course the Poles refused to take negotiations seriously. So what other option did Germany have? Of course a war to reconstitute territorial integrity is legitimate. Completely false, Poland itself has been attacking its neighbours repeatedly, Lithuania, Ukraine, Romania, Czechs, they all know about Polish agression, even Russia! It's all in here, just google Lithania, Ukraine, Romania, Czechs, Russia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Territorial_evolution_of_Poland -

Interactive Wire Transfer In Baht to Bangkok Bank - BBK Transfer fees?
Swift wire transfers go directly to bank to bank. They don't do inter-banking transfers or use holding banks -

Interactive Wire Transfer In Baht to Bangkok Bank - BBK Transfer fees?
Looks like using Interactive Brokers is not an options now. They now require you to use a corresponding bank which is Bangkok Bank New York. I'm sure the $10 will be tacked on. Oh well, back to using Wise. -

President Kamala Harris
Neither the Don or the Ho are qualified. Both are being shored up by their 2nd and 3rd level appointment choices. They are pathetic choices for puppets. Think the USA Americans are missing out by skipping by Nikki Hailey. But then, of the 37 American Countries, corruption in the political arena isn't new. Kennedy gate....Cuban rebel support? Water gate....should hired pros. Regan gate....Narcos for guns Bama gate guns for narcos Clinton gate...where do you start? Bush, Rumsey and the fat guy.....should be in prison. WMD...really? Trump...should have just gone for a BJ in the Oval Office, then he would have skated by the courts. -

Baht becoming ridiculously strong
The Thai price of gold has just been meandering since April/May, because the $US is falling against the baht as fast as the price of gold is rising against the dollar. As of 9/19/24, price is ฿40,410 bid ฿40,460 ask (per Baht weight of 0.965 gold) at Hua Seng Heng. They have shops in Chinatown and at Seacon Square. -

MP urges central bank governor to resign over call centre scams
I don't see it that way. Example: Someone buys a watch on a Facebook page. The buyer verifies the seller's identity and receives a photo of the buyer's ID. The name on the ID corresponds to the name of the account holder. The buyer transfers his money. After a while the buyer realizes that he has been cheated. He files a police report about fraud. The buyer informs the sellers bank about the fraud and also sends the police report requesting that the transfer be reversed. And what does the bank do then? Nothing. Because the banks are simply not obliged to take action in such cases. And the seller continues his scams using the same account.- 1

Bayer Testosterone 250mg Silom
If there is a medical reason for taking trt, it can make life better is all I'm saying. But it might not change your personality or quality of your life if you do not want it to happen and do something to make it happen. Being well and happy takes some effort, and sometimes medication can help -

It Would Be Nice to Know Who Is Running the Government
"Winning with her is visceral." What exactly is that supposed to mean? That it's not about the issues with her just about winning? And are you invoking genetics to explain this? This wasn't exactly an arbitrary decision. Do you remember the Biden/Trump debate? And if Nancy Pelosi and her billionaire friends are so powerful, why didn't she get her wish to have the Democratic convention be an open one? It was no secret that there were potentially better candidates than Harris. Maybe she didn't have quite enough of the her father's genes to pull that one off? -

President Kamala Harris
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/sep/18/election-teamsters-endorsement-harris-trump "...polling conducted after Biden dropped out and endorsed Harris 59.6% of members said they wanted the union to endorse Trump over 34% for Harris. Just because you don't like it, does not mean it isn't true. -

Good and precise criticism. The Thai bank governor doesn't want to do anything. His policy is sit, wait, and watch the house burn down. -

He has backflipped again. He always wants to get in first, and because of that rush he doesn’t read links or research his claims.
