Iraq’s New Law Proposal: Lower Age of Consent for Girls to Just Nine
This is likely to result in certain western heads exploding in outrage. Seriously, from my time in Saudi, it surprises me not at all, as it was not unknown for old men to marry very young girls, and require surgery to enable them to meet the obligation of the first night. -

U.S. Stations Nuclear-Capable Bombers Near Iran Amid Heightened Tensions
Leaving aside the implications of accelerating the rush to WW3, one wonders how the Qataris feel about being made a target? One suspects they may not be happy, especially when Saudi and Iran have been improving their relationship recently. In the event of a full blown war, it seems they may not be able to count on Saudi to help them. -

Prawit's Hopes Dashed: Boonchai Wins Thailand Aquatics Election
Prawit Wongsuwon. File photo courtesy: Thai Rath In a decisive and unexpected outcome, General Prawit Wongsuwon has suffered a significant setback, losing his bid to retain the presidency of the Thailand Aquatics Association (TAA) to Lieutenant General Boonchai Kasettrakarn. During the association's annual general meeting on Saturday, Boonchai secured a landslide victory, garnering 231 votes compared to Prawit's 22. Out of 277 member clubs, 271 were eligible to vote, with 18 abstaining. Prawit's loss comes just as his second four-year stint leading the TAA concluded on Thursday. The election outcome marks a pivotal change in the TAA's leadership and casts doubt over Prawit's role in the broader spectrum of Thai sports administration. The absence of both Prawit and Boonchai from the meeting didn't deter the clubs from endorsing them as candidates. However, Boonchai’s overwhelming win reflects a clear mandate for change within the TAA and poses a major setback for Prawit's influence in sports governance. This defeat also complicates Prawit's standing in the national Olympic committee (NOCT), where leadership elections are slated for March next year. The NOCT's rules require candidates to hold an elected position within a national sports organisation, impacting Prawit’s aspirations for continued leadership. Amidst this changing landscape, General Decha Hemkrasi of the Thai Cycling Association (TCA) and Pimol Srivikorn from the Taekwondo Association of Thailand are emerging as favourites for the NOCT chairman position. Despite the setback, Prawit still has a chance to regain eligibility by securing a role in another sports body before the elections, reported Bangkok Post. -- 2024-11-11 -
