Crime Former U.S. Soldier Arrested After Disturbance at Pattaya Beer Bar
Yes, but that means nothing unless they can do what's needed when the time comes. Anyone can take martial arts and freeze when a fight happens. Having a killer instinct is what matters. Taking a life isn't as easy as it sounds if you're a normal person. It is easy for a sociopath that's been raised with no respect for life itself. -

Yes, Israel’s plan for Rafah would be a crime but international law has never protected Gaza
You've got to stop referring to the Holocaust, and indeed mentioning Jews as a race, as a blanket defence against anything Israel does. Criticism of Israel's current actions in Gaza has nothing to do with the Holocaust or indeed the Jewish race as a whole. Growing up in Hull, I had many Jewish friends at school, some of their grandparents had escaped pogroms in Europe. I was particularly grateful to one friend who introduced me to 'Argus', the excellent album by Wishbone Ash. It's equally absurd to paint those criticising Israel's action on AN as Hamas supporters, wittingly or not. What outrages onlookers is the deliberate and methodical application of suffering and repression on the entire Gaza population by the current Israeli government. For that they deserve the world's condemnation.- 1

Report Fed-Up Nottingham Dad Moves Family to Thailand for New Life
Schools are 100x worse in Thailand. Pollution, has to be at least 10x worse. Language barrier might be hard on the kids. House, yea, burn the only real asset they have? I'm sure the retirement fund will be gone as well. 90% of jobs are not available. What visa is he going to get? This sound like some fake Disney story but will end up in a divorce, kids will go back home, future destroyed, money gone, and their 15 minutes of fame won't result in a payout. Unless this guy has about 50 million baht, there's 0% this works out 10 years from now. Sure, they can "live" for maybe five years doing nothing...but this is an idiotic move. I've never seen anyone come to Thailand and make more than in America. Salaries in America are almost 10x more. -

Report Kim and Lavrov Unite: North Korea Throws Full Support Behind Russia
This is written in the present tense. It's apparent you don't know this. Draws deeper not drawn deeper, straining relations not strained relations. visiting for three days not visited for three days, discussing not discussed and reaffirming not reaffirmed. -

Report Fed-Up Nottingham Dad Moves Family to Thailand for New Life
I've heard how bad England is many times from people on this forum. I've also talked with quite a few Brits here and asked them about their lives back home. They didn't trash England but most said they didn't like the cold anymore. I can relate, as I moved to Texas from New Jersey because I didn't like the long winters. Just what , besides the weather, is so bad about England, taking politics out of it because that's ridiculous everywhere? I'm thinking if it was so bad in Mansfield, they could have many other choices in England, especially in the country areas. Picking Thailand isn't the answer, especially for their children. That girl has to grow up around mostly locals, and seeing how the boys are here, that's not a good choice to make. Home schooling is okay if you do your job, but it doesn't teach the children social skills in a regimented environment, which is more important than most of the subjects you'll learn in school. They can't work in most jobs here so when that savings runs low, they'll have to leave. Like many have said before, rent, stay 6 months to a year, then decide. But it still comes down to the future of those kids, and that's reason one why I'm taking my daughter back to the US.
