On a late afternoon of October 8, Yingluck Shinawatra, who once helmed Thailand as Prime Minister, publicly aired her sentiments on the escalating crisis unfolding in the Middle East.

 

With a heavy heart, she took to social media, addressing the violent clash that has ensnared Israel and Hamas, bringing untold suffering to both sides of the conflict, reported Siam Rath.

 

The former leader’s words echoed with the pain for lives lost and families shattered. Each syllable underscored an impassioned plea for an end to the hostilities that have not only claimed the lives of fighters but have also victimized innocent bystanders.

 

Thai nationals, working abroad, found themselves amidst this tumult, some reportedly seized and forced into the unspeakable role of human barricades.

 

As chaos reigned, Yingluck lauded the swift response of Thailand’s sitting government. Their unflinching efforts to extend aid to their imperiled countrymen have not gone unnoticed.

 

Yingluck’s voice joined in unison, beckoning for the preservation of every Thai life and their expedited journey back to the safety of their homeland.

Isreali persecution of Palestinians has been going on for

over 70 years, now when Palestine strikes back there are

calls to stop the violence.  Time for Bibi to go, and for Israel

to treat Palestinians with respect. Middle Eastern allies now

have the power to raze Israel to the ground.

Who's going to listen to what she has to say?

The Israelis are never going to treat the Palestinians with respect.

Seems appropriate since Thais got caught in the 'crossfire' of this silly violence.

 

Although, who really cares what she thinks.

 

Violence is violence, and should never happen.   Why people even go to or care about this region (I know/$$$), is beyond me.   Let them kill each other and return to mid-evil times if they want.

 

As much as I blame Israel for instigating the problem, the Palestinian response isn't winning them any favors.  Two wrongs never make it right.

 

Need to have a ceasefire so all nations can withdraw their citizens from the area. 

 

Then they can kill each other if the want, and be done with it.

'Ex-Thai PM Yingluck Condemns Violence in the Middle East' - well that should calm things down.  She ended her speech by saying/reading 'Thank you three times.'

Her handler(Tony) is getting her to dip her toe in the water so to speak so the pepes will remember her for when the blanket amnesty is announced.

She and bro will be welcomed back with open arms.

I say this with a heavy heart.555

They have to tell ChatGPT to be less "flowery".

It actually understands what that means.

No Arab attacks on Israel stared the day after it was founded, 5 Arab armies started a war then. Arabs were offered their own country the year before with 43% of the area, they rejected it. The violence as always been caused by muslim hatred of Israel and only wanting a one state solution- their own

These Palestinians are the same ones that kill innocent civilian men, women and children.

And you want respect for them?

Ask yourself what causes wars and conflict.  

It has always been our leaders, whether its Isreal/ Palestine,

Ukraine/Russia, China/ US, or whatever.

Humans just want to get on with life together.

Governments are our enemy.

Does she also condemn all those thousands killed under Taksin's rule?

Just what I was thinking.

 

Lauding the current government's efforts. 

 

She'll be back in a few months, diagnosed with a serious illness, no doubt.
