Israeli Attacked in Thailand by German Tourist, Report Says
By definition Israel and the USA are the largest terrorist states on the planet. Definition of Terrorism Terrorism is commonly defined as the unlawful use of violence or threats of violence against civilians to achieve political, religious, or ideological objectives. The United Nations General Assembly, in its 1994 Declaration on Measures to Eliminate International Terrorism, describes terrorism as: "Criminal acts intended or calculated to provoke a state of terror in the general public, a group of persons, or particular persons for political purposes are in any circumstance unjustifiable, whatever the considerations of a political, philosophical, ideological, racial, ethnic, religious, or other nature that may be invoked to justify them." The U.S. Department of State defines terrorism as: “Premeditated, politically motivated violence perpetrated against noncombatant targets by subnational groups or clandestine agents, usually intended to influence an audience.” The key elements of terrorism are: Targeting civilians or non-combatants. Political, religious, or ideological motivation. Creation of fear to coerce or intimidate. Israel as a Terrorist State Israel's actions, particularly in its treatment of Palestinians, fit several aspects of terrorism based on the above definitions. Key examples include: 1. Targeting Civilians Israeli military operations in Gaza and the West Bank have resulted in the deaths of tens of thousands of Palestinian civilians, including children, over decades. Civilian infrastructure, such as schools, hospitals, and water facilities, is regularly bombed during military campaigns【12†source】【15†source】. 2. Political Motivation The objective of these actions is often to suppress Palestinian resistance, maintain control over occupied territories, and advance illegal settlements on Palestinian land, violating international law【10†source】【13†source】. 3. Use of Fear House demolitions, mass arrests, and checkpoints serve as tools to intimidate Palestinians, destabilize communities, and force them to abandon their lands【15†source】. 4. Apartheid and Ethnic Cleansing The systemic discrimination, displacement, and repression of Palestinians by Israel amount to state-sponsored terror. Numerous human rights organizations have classified Israel as an apartheid state, a status that institutionalizes terror against Palestinians as a governing principle【13†source】【15†source】. The United States as a Terrorist State The United States' foreign policy actions also align with elements of state terrorism. Consider the following: 1. Supporting State Terrorism The U.S. provides over $3.8 billion annually in military aid to Israel, enabling its occupation and operations against Palestinians. This support sustains a regime that systematically targets civilians【12†source】. 2. Unlawful Violence in Foreign Countries U.S. drone strikes and military campaigns in countries such as Iraq, Afghanistan, Yemen, and Somalia have caused large-scale civilian casualties. These actions are justified as counterterrorism but often result in the indiscriminate killing of non-combatants, creating fear and destabilization. 3. Political and Ideological Objectives Many U.S. military interventions are designed to maintain geopolitical dominance, secure access to resources like oil, and protect allied regimes, often disregarding the sovereignty and rights of affected populations. 4. Economic Terrorism Sanctions imposed by the U.S. on countries like Iran, Venezuela, and Cuba are tools of economic warfare. These measures often harm civilians by depriving them of basic necessities, creating widespread suffering, and pressuring governments to comply with U.S. interests. Implications Both Israel and the U.S., through their policies and actions, demonstrate behaviors that fit the definition of terrorism when assessed objectively: Israel enforces its goals through systemic violence, collective punishment, and apartheid. The U.S. uses military might, economic coercion, and global influence to impose its political and ideological will. These actions perpetuate cycles of violence, destabilize entire regions, and create the very conditions in which extremist ideologies thrive, undermining their claimed goals of peace and security. -

Why Do Thai P4P Girls Love Getting Tattoos?
Dont you asshats ever get tired of disparaging women with tattoos? like them or don't, they are commonplace with women of all most cultures (yes i realize there are exceptions). You should pretty much be used to them by now. I am one of the very few people I know who doesn't have a tattoo. Certainly most folks under 50 I know, male or female have at least one. get over it. -

The '50-50 Race' Pre-Election Polls Were Phony
I read a news article some time back, that Trudeau won the election in Canada, just from the votes in 3 cities. The article suggested that if the popular vote was in the U.S. of A. then New York City and 2 or 3 other cities could elect a President. -

Brits, hope may be on the way: Musk!
I think Musk is more interested in acquiring Hawaiian born citizenship, he can probably afford it. Of course, it is beyond the pale to investigate preposterous birth certs by anyone. Totally forbidden. He could be President in 2028. The second African-American President. And both from Hawaii. Very cool. -
