Israel Hamas War the Widening Middle East Conflict
identity as an IDF soldier with U.S. citizenship must have made an extreme object of hate for Hamas. He was often held without light and given only starvation rations. It's a wonder- and testimony to his physical and mental strength- he survived 584 days. US hostage ‘held in a cage and tortured repeatedly by Hamas’ Edan Alexander, an IDF soldier who was freed on Monday, says he was routinely abused by the terror group during his captivity A US hostage freed on Monday in an American deal with Hamas has said he was held in a cage and repeatedly tortured. Edan Alexander was shackled by his hands and feet for long periods, and was routinely abused by the terror group, he reportedly told Israeli officers. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2025/05/13/us-hostage-idf-edan-alexander-cage-tortured-hamas-israel/?msockid=22c6161a5ddf6bba08b203c95c006a5a -

Report Rayong Students Left in Tears After Teachers Give Forced Haircuts
File photo courtesy of The Nation for reference only. Female students at a school in Rayong have expressed outrage after being subjected to compulsory haircuts by teachers despite a court ruling that abolished stringent hairstyle rules. The controversial incident occurred on orientation day, when about 15 girls were given unexpected and unwanted haircuts, insisting their hairstyles contradicted outdated regulations deemed unconstitutional earlier this year. The Supreme Administrative Court had annulled the Ministry of Education's 1975 hairstyle regulation on March 5, citing constitutional conflicts and societal evolution. Although schools can still establish individual hairstyle rules, such measures must respect students' rights, avoiding punitive actions. This development comes as a disappointment to students who hoped the ruling marked the end of enforced hairstyle conformity in Thai schools. On May 9, during orientation in Klaeng district, Rayong, teachers forced the haircuts, claiming the girls' longer hairstyles violated previous school guidelines. Some boys also faced scrutiny over their hairstyles, being instructed to remedy them independently. The activist group Bad Student shared students' frustration online, highlighting the arbitrary and embarrassing nature of these actions while lamenting censorship of student complaints on the school's Facebook page. There are concerns this incident breaches the Child Protection Act, as the revoked haircut policy remains contentious. The struggle now extends beyond policy to practical enforcement, where conservative school traditions still encroach on students' rights. The controversy has sparked a wave of support from netizens, rallying around the affected students and calling for a cultural shift towards greater educational freedom. Despite the removal of the regulation, the forced haircuts have rekindled debate on individual rights within schools. Adapted by ASEAN Now from Bangkok Post 2025-05-14 -

Will you be getting boosted now that Covid is back in the headlines in Thailand?
I know a couple of people who developed severe arthritis right after their jabs. One immediately understood the causation and says she made a terrible mistake, the other one is a doctor and has mental barriers preventing her from looking at the evidence – she is boosting herself to oblivion, last I heard she was on her 5th shot. -

Markets Rebound as US and China agree to slash tariffs for 90 days
Cherry pick or not they are still outdated. My original post was not about defending or complaining about Trump. It was to say that people (usually the left) who only complain and never give credit when credit is due are simply people who cry wolf and after continuous complaining they just become irrelevant and in some cases become a laughing stock. (or as I stated "a car alarm that that nobody pays attention to). -

Health Six Dead as Covid Cases Surge in Thailand
Sensationalist tat. Cannot believe they’re still pushing this. It’s a cold and people die unfortunately; that’s what we do.
