soi3eddie Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Aren't most male and female Israelis required to serve national military service? They would like be very accustomed to carrying, handling and using ammunition. How he came to have it in Thailand was not stated. Still, he should have known that there was a good chance of it being discovered but likely he didn't see it as an issue. The Thais seem to be quite good at scanning checked-in baggage these days. I was reported by Thai authorities to UK customs who were waiting for me and my checked-in baggage 2 months ago. My suspected crime was carrying ashes of a deceased friend back to the UK. Looked like organic matter on the scan - as I had all the paperwork there was no issue. My point being, the Thais do scan well and will report suspicious items. Just try getting a power bank through! No chance!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expatriation and escape from the tyranny and taxation (where possible) is the best option. Many Americans are even going as far as renouncing citizenship (where they have alternative citizenship - A Thai did this last year) to avoid the grasp of Uncle Sam. To keep this somewhat on topic, are there any Israelis here who might comment as to why an Israeli may have ammunition in baggage? Maybe the guy likes to shoot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
