Read the OP, the one at the top!

I did. Did you?

This situation arose when he was unable to purchase a ticket for onward travel, allegedly due to higher costs linked to war-related airfare hikes.The ultimate goal was his return to a Southeast Asian country as part of a planned route back home, unrelated to any active conflict zones.

The cost of airfare to a Southeast Asian country is less than 1700 baht. That's less than $50 USD. If he doesn't have that, he should be back in his Section 8 housing living the good life in the USA,.

Thats your opinion, consistent with general Brits here, still haven't gotten over all your " Great " minds left 1770's and left England what it is today without the " Great " .

Less Rotten eggs the math is correct you just happen to have less population, but it is increasing from all the bitching, country is being overrun by outsiders, which is what is happening to U.S. so less rotten eggs " the saying those who also live in glass houses shouldn't throw rocks "

Thats an Embassy, it is more a closet in an office building, your country cares more about taking care of non-citizens, instead of giving your expats a cost of living, 😂

Give a thumbs down Brits!

Ohhhhh dear another sad bitter and twisted Yank. 🤣🤣

And it is well shared works both ways which you seem to be blinded by your bias!

I don't need you to also point out my country slide into misery. In spite of that misery I don't run to another country to escape although I also live here.

I wish America would do the same in number of cases like supporting the world and when we try the world seem to want both ways!

My bias does not extend to supporting bullying tactics and unnecessary attacks, and the killing of civilians. World has gone mad.

No leftist has ever met an ayatollah he or she can't fawn over.

An Islamo-authoritarian regime is, after all, the very pinnacle of anti-Americanism. And as we all know, in the leftist mind it's blunting the USA's power and influence that is the very most important aspect of any and every topic. All other considerations are secondary.

Bangkok has him now 🥱

If I'm correct we are on the same page! people all have their opinion but they stuck on their own, enable to see the other side right or wrong. response was bullying and killing of civilaian lives, whether it is Iran or U.S. Jewist, they only see it being done by the latter two!

USA citizens don't feel shame. They just put a Canadian flag pin on their backpack

Does Iran feel shame? Do we forget shame is fashion in the past, England, France, Germany, etc. he who lives in glass house shouldn't throw rocks. Do we forget what others have done prior of the birth of U.S

Freedom is a wonderful thing, choice! If I.S. is wrong wherever your are from contact your government and ask or demand they join forces with Iran.

You and I know that isn't happening and the truth is you know the answer even at 85!

The unusual thing is that following a denial of entry, passengers are held in the underground detention centre at the airport. It is not like a jail (but you can't leave), more like a warren of offices, rooms and bathrooms containing Immigration staff and travel agents processing travellers who have been denied entry and using detention as a way to pressure them to pay for a ticket on the carrier that brought them in.

However, at one point on the video I see a window suggesting he was moved to a different area.

What the truth hurts, if you can't take the heat get out of the kitchen, you like to dish it out but can't except it back, that is what it looks like to me. You 85, time to grow up don't you think it is never too late nor too late to learn to take a bit of criticism. Troll vs. Troll! Don't be a coward stand up and be counted!
