Phuket forum seeks 15-day cap on Israeli tourists

Featured Replies

More than one thread about Israeli / Jews in recent times.

This guy is funny. He's Jewish. Love his work. Watched his Netflix specials.

He's Jewish, but takes the p*ss out of Jews, yet, he's not called out for antisemitism.

Why isn't the same luxury afforded to me, when said in humor, as it is for him?

Why is it, if I crack the same joke, it's antisemitism, but as a Jew, he cracks the joke, and it fine? It's the same joke, isn't it?

    So what do they plan on doing about the Russians? Give them about 15 hours?

    The people of Phuket and other places that are faced with an influx of Israelis shouldn't bite the hand that feeds them by drastically restricting tourism. Instead, approach the problem from another a

    It is clear the mass-influx of Israelis is causing huge problems in Thailand, from Phuket, to Pai, to Ko Samui, to Ko Phangan. Putting a 15 limit on visits from Israelis and preventing them from sett

Why is it that so many pro Palestinians / Anti Israelis always seem to make it all about them all the time ?

Attention seeking ?

Narciscissm ?

They always seem to be talking about themselves and its always all about them

Not me.

The human race has been killing each other over land, oil, and religion, for centuries now.

I could even plagiarize a joke from him, with him being Jewish, and taking the p*ss out of Jews, and post it on this thread, and I would be called out for antisemitism, yet, a Jewish guy made the joke up, about fellow Jews.

He's a great comedian. Many in his audience are Jewish. He takes the p*ss out of it. They laugh. They have a good time. I find it humorous, as I do when comedians take the p*ss out of people from my own country, Australia.

Yet, I say the same joke as he, and it's antisemitism. This should not be the case. I am not offended if someone takes the p*ss out of Australians. Happy to laugh it it.

People, watch, and laugh at this small video clip. The whole show was great. Very funny guy.

Stand up comedy is about the last platform of freedom of speech that is left in this world.

When did you post the joke and who called you an anti Semite ?

Which poster claimed you were any Anti Semite ?

I didn't.

My point was, and as I said, I could post the exact same joke from a Jewish comedian, who is taking the p*ss out of Jews, on stage, yet, if I post it, it's antisemitic, and for me, that's sad.

Jews, in the crowd of a Jewish comedian, find it humorous when a Jewish comedian cracks the joke, but if a non Jew cracks the EXACT same joke, it's antisemitism.

Humanity should be better than this by now, but it's not. There is no hope, not in my life time. We will continue to kill ourselves oil, land and religion, long after I am dead.

What a wonderful legacy we leave to future generations.

Why don't you tell the joke and see whether anyone calls you anti semitic ?

KhunH, it's just the same as the 'N' word. If I use it in a joke, as a white man, then I've said a terrible thing! If a black comedian uses it, then it's funny..... I guess it's the same as gays making jokes about gays etc. The world is a weird place.

The above sentence summarizes both the real situation in Phuket and a great post by @Patong2021. It deserves a special award.

Screenshot 2026-09-01 11.21.52 AM (2).jpg

@Patong2021 has chewed up and spit out the anti-Israel posts. I wonder if any of the board's antisem- I mean anti-Zionists- can answer @Patong2021 without name-calling or mentioning dead children in Gaza.

And to anyone who believes Israelis should be barred from Phuket: What specific harm have Israelis ever done to Thais or other tourists?

Patong accuses everyone else of being "easily manipulated," having "pre-existing bias," and spreading "disinformation." Yet, their entire argument is built on:

  1. Unfounded rumors about Thai locals being paid to protest.

  2. Uncited, mathematically flawed crime statistics.

  3. Denying widely documented geopolitical realities (Gaza civilian casualties) as "Pallywood."

  4. Insulting a fellow commenter’s career.

  5. Tying a local zoning/tourist dispute in Thailand to a global Covid conspiracy.

This "Israeli problem" is clearly WAY OVERBLOWN.

If it was just western youtubers whining, maybe.

But if Thais are demanding restrictions, I don't think it's overblown.

Meanwhile: BACK ON TOPIC ! PLEASE

Ok, but nothing that you wrote is actually related to my reasoning that was provided.

  1. Questions were asked if some of the participants had been compensated for their participation. The organizer did not respond to those questions. That is what I wrote. You are the one saying it is a rumour. The event was not well attended.

  2. I am not relying on "uncited mathematically flawed statistics" (sic). The fact is that the claim you are promoting that Israelis are responsible for significant numbers of crimes and it is unfounded. The obligation is on you to support that conclusion. There have been far fewer reports of serious crimes by Israelis than there have been by various EU, Australian, Chinese and UK nationals. The onus is on you to offer a factual basis to make your claim. look at the reported crimes, and it becomes obvious which nationalities have the crime problem.

  3. There is indeed a Pallywood. However, it has no relevance to the alleged Israeli wrongdoing in Phuket. You can go bash Israel in one of the many threads.

  4. There was no insult of a "fellow commentator's career". Aside from the fact that he really doesn't have one, he has been quite open abpout his successive failures. I offered that the chronic failure may reflect his mindset.

  5. What zoning dispute and what tourist dispute? The event was organized as an information session to discuss visitor activities. The organizer sought to attract publicity by first referencing Israelis. He quickly backed off when the local authorities and media asked him for evidence. This was turned into an Israeli focused event primarily by westerners who are attaching their own bias.

In other words, you have absolutely no idea how to respond, so you run away.
