Aussie Arrested in Koh Phangan for 15 Sexual Assault Cases in Australia
Maybe just me but Koh Phangan would not be anywhere top of my list of locations if I was hiding from the jacks. -

What’s the best area in Thailand for expats to settle for long-term living?
For long-term living I would choose Pattaya hands down. I often say Pattaya is actually a better place to live than as a tourist destination to visit for a few days. It has all the things you'd want in a place to live, either year-round or for shorter terms. Great selection of neighborhoods, each with its own vibe. You can choose beach side, with a number of different choices. Or, you might want the quieter, less touristy Darkside, with lots of terrific housing projects to choose from. Great selection of housing choices at all price ranges--hugely important in a place to live--whether you are renting or buying. You can, and my spouse and I have, live in everything from a studio condo on the beach to our current 4-bedroom pool villa. As our housing needs changed, Pattaya easily accommodated us. Tremendous choice. Also so important, very good health care, eye care, and dental care available with a number of large hospitals and clinics. Terrific shopping choices with two very good shopping malls, furniture and hardware stores like Home Pro and Index, good grocery store choices, a large number of car dealers offering a wide brand selection, and a huge number of different restaurants. Plus, cinemas in English, golf courses, scuba, snorkeling, fishing, badminton and tennis courts, etc. And, the added bonus of being an easy drive on the 4-lane Motorway to both a big city and two major airports. Three if you count U-Tapao. The cherry on top is the large and diverse expat community living here. You'll likely make some new friends--we have. -

Aussie Arrested in Koh Phangan for 15 Sexual Assault Cases in Australia
Maybe you think all settlers should have been given Abo names like Bindi, Kirra or Daku? strange they never seem to manage names longer than 5 letters. The registrar should forbid some names of course for babies, definitely Muhammad, Aisha, and Hitler. -

Aussie Arrested in Koh Phangan for 15 Sexual Assault Cases in Australia
Why does it take three police Colonels plus a police team to arrest one guy overstaying his visa? Surely two cops would be sufficient. It seems to me that Thailand has far too many cops doing nothing. Perhaps they should look at retrenching one third of them and increasing the pay of the remainder but make them earn their money. -

BBC Chairman Calls For a Thorough Review of Israel-Hamas War Bias
What's needed is no Israeli bias and no Palestinian bias but a two-state solution bias. Both parties are guilty of horrible crimes, and both want complete control of the area that used to be called Palestine. They will have to be forced into agreeing to a two-state solution by allies from both sides. -

Trump Harris: Who won the debate ?
This assumes that undecided voters are primarily interested in policy details. In fact, many voters are also swayed by factors like personality, likability, and perceived trustworthiness. This would have been a shot across the bows by the Dems on the Republicans, but now Trump is running scared so does not want more debates or details shared. But you cannot believe everything he says. -

France Uncovers Iranian Plot to Kill Jews in Europe
once again: Jews have assassinated more Palestinians, other Arabs and Persians than the latter have killed Jews. just more smoke to cover up the ongoing genocide in Gaza. (note to the editor: you post pro-jew nonsense but will not permit a reasonable response from one of your readers. if you delete it again, I promise never to darken your site again...) -

BBC Chairman Calls For a Thorough Review of Israel-Hamas War Bias
Your ignorance of the law is absolutely staggering. In 1977, Protocol I was adopted as an amendment to the Geneva Conventions, prohibiting the deliberate or indiscriminate attack of civilians and civilian objects, even if the area contained military objectives, and the attacking force must take precautions and steps to spare the lives of civilians and civilian objects as possible. However, forces occupying near densely populated areas must avoid locating military objectives near or in densely populated areas and endeavor to remove civilians from the vicinity of military objectives. Failure to do so would cause a higher civilian death toll resulting from bombardment by the attacking force and the defenders would be held responsible, even criminally liable, for these deaths. This issue was addressed because drafters of Protocol I pointed out historical examples such as Japan in World War II who often dispersed legitimate military and industrial targets (almost two-thirds of production was from small factories of thirty or fewer persons or in wooden homes, which were clustered around the factories) throughout urban areas in many of its cities either with the sole purpose of preventing enemy forces from bombing these targets or using its civilian casualties caused by enemy bombardment as propaganda value against the enemy. This move made Japan vulnerable to area bombardment and the U.S. Army Air Forces (USAAF) adopted a policy of carpetbombing which destroyed 69 Japanese cities with either incendiary bombs or atomic bombs, with the deaths of 381,000–500,000 Japanese people https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerial_bombardment_and_international_law This argument that Hamas is placing military resources among civlians has already been made, back in WWII. It is not an excuse in modern law of war and Protocol I makes clear this is not an excuse. Israel did commit a war crime by bombing that former school. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/9/11/at-least-14-palestinians-killed-in-israeli-strike-on-gaza-school -
