Chinese Men Caught Removing Documents from Collapsed Building in Bangkok
Basically this building should have survived. Doesn't need to be built to earthquake specs. Bangkok isn't an earthquake prone zone. Shortcuts have been made and pockets have been filled and people have died. The blame for this surly is corruption. I would like anyone to challenge this. -

I'd look into the Italian engineers. There is precedent.,,,,,,, -

UK Passport renewal - email received 'send us your passport' 2 weeks after applying?
Hi there. So, I applied at VFS Global a couple of weeks ago to renew my passport, which expires in May. I made an appointment and successfully submitted all the documents. They said it would take 3 or 4 weeks and that they would call me when it arrived. Payment was taken one week later. Today, I received an email from the UK passport office saying I need to send them my passport. To do so, I need to revisit VFS global and hand it over. I also need to submit a form of ID from a list they provided. Is this an error, do you think? The lady at VFS checked all my documents and handed my passport back to me. Everything was in perfect order. I had official ID from the Amphur and a Thai driving licence with my Thai address on it. I can't think of a reason why they would need me to fly back to Bangkok and hand it over again? Moreover, I don't have any 'new' form of ID to give them, other than what I already have. This feels like some kind of auto-email error, but I can't be sure. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this? -

The left wants to destroy the Greatest country on Earth.
I agree there is no such thing. However, the title of this thread and many of the posts, suggest some Americans really do believe it! 🤣 -

The rearmament of Europe.
To rearm Europe is high on the agenda. Unfortunately, even under the best of circumstance, this will take between 8 to 10 years. If Putin hungers for European soil, he is not going to wait that long. In the meantime, every European soldier knows that versus Russia they are "undermanned" and ""outgunned" for many years to come. These days (as opposed to soldiers before our time) they are well informed. Come war, will they head for the front to serve as cannon fodder or will they head for home? A grotesk scenario: Half of the soldiers heading for home, the remaining half being ordered to chase down "deserters", with nobody left at the front. Nothing surprises me anymore, considering the state of affairs in todays Europe. AND: Look at the youngsters. Spoiled by prosperity, cherishing their social media crap above any sort of "fatherland". Will they make for fearsome warriors, defending their soil and "western values"? I think not. -
