EU Polish Far-Right Politician Under Fire for Denying Auschwitz Gas Chambers
That's the kind of comment that anti-semites use to justify Jew hatred. If a Jewish person wants to consider Israel his homeland, that's his business. And if he doesn't that's his business, too. Israel doesn't get to speak for world Jewry. Your statement just supports the anti-semitic belief that Jews outside of Israel have dual allegiances. -

Current Status of Thailand's Cannabis Law Changes
Below is an updated summary I just gathered from Grok AI after it collected information from various online sources. My suggestion would be to obtain a medical certificate by the end of this month if you plan to continue possessing and using it in the future. So far, enforcement appears to have focused mainly on sellers and vendors rather than individual users, but that could change. I would recommend continuing to monitor the news for any reports of enforcement actions against individual users to get a better sense of the potential legal risks for personal possession and use going forward. --- From Grok: Thailand Cannabis Possession Regulations (Updated July 15, 2025) As of July 15, 2025, Thailand’s cannabis regulations, effective from June 26, 2025, ban recreational use and impose strict controls on possession. Below are the updated possession restrictions based on the latest information: Possession Restrictions for Cannabis in Thailand (2025) 1. Recreational Use: • Recreational cannabis use is illegal. Possession of cannabis flower or products for non-medical purposes violates the Public Health Act 2535 BE (1992), with penalties including fines up to 25,000 Baht (~US$700) or up to 3 months imprisonment. • No specific possession limit is defined for recreational use, as any amount without a medical prescription is illegal. Enforcement is inconsistent due to a 30–60 day grace period (extending into late July or August 2025), allowing time for businesses and individuals to adapt. 2. Medical Use: • Possession for medical purposes is legal with a prescription from a doctor, traditional Thai or Chinese medicine practitioner, pharmacist, or dentist. Prescriptions are limited to a 30-day supply. • The amount must align with the prescribed treatment and be sourced from licensed dispensaries meeting Good Agricultural and Collection Practices (GACP) standards. No explicit quantity limit beyond the 30-day supply is specified. 3. THC Content and Intent to Distribute: • Cannabis extracts and products (e.g., edibles, oils) must contain ≤0.2% THC to be legally possessed without special permission. Possession of extracts exceeding 0.2% THC is a Category 5 narcotic offense, carrying harsher penalties under the Narcotics Code. • Possession of more than 30 grams or 30 milliliters of cannabis or its extracts may be treated as intent to distribute under existing narcotics laws, leading to fines up to 100,000 Baht or imprisonment up to 7 years, unless the individual has a prescription or a permit (e.g., for research or export). This threshold is a guideline, not a new rule from 2024 or 2025. 4. Specific Restrictions: • Minors (under 20), pregnant women, and breastfeeding women are prohibited from possessing or using cannabis, except with medical authorization. • Public consumption (e.g., smoking in schools, temples, or malls) is illegal, with fines up to 25,000 Baht (~US$700) or 3 months imprisonment. Possession is allowed only in private areas. • Tourists cannot import or export cannabis or its seeds, regardless of quantity. 5. Cultivation: • Individuals can cultivate cannabis but must register with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) via the “Plookganja” app or website. No limit on the number of plants exists, but registration is recommended in case future laws require licensing. Enforcement Context: • A 30–60 day enforcement delay (announced June 28, 2025) applies primarily to businesses (e.g., licensing for dispensaries), but the recreational ban and prescription requirement are legally in effect. Enforcement is inconsistent, with authorities focusing on unlicensed vendors and illegal products (e.g., edibles exceeding 0.2% THC). • A crackdown on illegal cannabis edibles, spurred by a toddler’s hospitalization in Chiang Mai after consuming cannabis gummies, has led to nationwide raids, seizures, and potential vendor arrests. (Sources: The Nation Thailand, July 6, 2025; FTN News, July 11, 2025; Thai Examiner, July 7, 2025) Summary: • Recreational possession: Illegal; any amount without a prescription risks fines up to 25,000 Baht or 3 months imprisonment. • Medical possession: Limited to a 30-day supply with a prescription; products must have ≤0.2% THC. • Intent to distribute: Possession of >30 grams or 30 milliliters without a prescription or permit may be treated as intent to distribute under the Narcotics Code. • Special restrictions: No possession by minors, pregnant, or breastfeeding women (unless medically authorized); no public use; no import/export. • Cultivation: No plant limit but requires FDA registration. Enforcement Actions (June 26–July 15, 2025): Recent enforcement has focused on closing unlicensed cannabis shops (over 70 in Bangkok), seizing illegal products like high-THC edibles, and enforcing prescription requirements. The toddler incident in Chiang Mai prompted nartionwide raids on non-compliant products. No specific arrests of individuals for recreational use or possession without a prescription have been reported, with authorities prioritizing businesses during the 30–60 day grace period (until late July or August 2025). -

The alarming mental decline of Donald J. Trump -- watch this space
He's sending arms to Ukraine via NATO. I call that smart. He just managed to clean up the Education Department- that's smart. He's got an invitation to dine with the King of England- nuff said. It's inevitable we compare him to Biden who stumbled around the world stage like a senile old man. -
