  1. We know full well who is murdering women and children wilfully and it isn't the Israeli
  2. Nothing about land sharing at all. Plenty of land, always has been. Hamas and by extension, the Palestinians under their banner refuse Israel the right to exist. You know this. They have had offers time and again to share the land, they refuse completely. Many times the offer to partition has been made and rejected. Your list ignores historical facts
  3. Unless things have changed, they don't have shower rooms except in the prison hospital in Bangkok. They have huge water tanks out in the open, and it's a giant communal area. For sluicing / showering.
  4. Thai Airways cashing in on a crisis? Well, I never would have thought it.😂
  5. Not only them, Qatar had a spat with Airbus over peeling paint on some airplanes and cancelled many orders, forcing them to lease planes from other airlines that are inferior. So now, you really have to check on what aircraft you are flying to Europe on, and this definitely affects the standards and seating arrangements in business class. My last couple of jaunts have involved certain legs of the journey that were absolutely not the 5-star airline experience they claim to be. This September I am flying again and looking at both Finnair and Malaysian Air for deals. Possibly even Etihad!
  6. It doesn't work that way; budget airlines always move in to fill the void.
  7. We don't know if the statement produced was the words of Khamenei's son, the new Ayatollah, or just regurgitated words from the IRGC. We also are not sure if it's true that he was only 'lightly injured,' as stated by the Iranian press, or whether it was more severe or not at all.
  8. I've now seen the video. It was a shophouse, and although you couldn't see the perpetrator, by the accent it sounded like a Middle Easterner and not a typical Thai accent. I could be wrong; you could only hear the verbal abuse. The alleged Israeli tourist did absolutely nothing wrong and was glued to his phone. The shopkeeper followed him not just outside the shop but continued well down the road, shouting various Middle Eastern and English phrases, including on many occasions 'Allahu Akbar.' The tourist did not reply at all and continued trying to text or whatever on his phone. He went further down the road to the opposite side, near a cement mixer, where he was still pursued by the shopkeeper screaming. It then looked like he was trying to call somebody. This was unnecessary and unwelcome harassment.
  9. On October 7th, 2023, the militant group Hamas launched a large-scale terrorist attack from the Gaza Strip into Israel. Armed fighters crossed the border and attacked Israeli towns, villages, and a music festival, killing around 1,200 people and kidnapping more than 200 others. Many of those murdered were civilians, including families and children. The attack involved extreme brutality, with reports of civilians being executed in their homes, people taken hostage, and women subjected to sexual violence. Entire families were wiped out. Hamas leaders knew that carrying out such a massacre would trigger a powerful response from Israel. Any country faced with that scale of attack on its civilians would respond militarily. Israel’s government, led by Benjamin Netanyahu, declared war and launched military operations in Gaza aimed at destroying Hamas and rescuing the hostages. The suffering of civilians in Gaza is tragic, especially for children. But it is important to remember how the war began. The conflict escalated because Hamas chose to carry out the October 7th attack, knowing it would almost certainly lead to a devastating war. Those are the undisputed facts in black and white, so you can keep all your thumbs-down emojis because they wash over me. It's ridiculous that on here and in the wider world, people decide their areas and target their selective outrage. Sheep is what they are, unable to think for themselves.
  10. Babies that turn into indoctrinated kids. Can Israel help it if they store their bomb factories in schools and hospitals? Fool. You think Hamas cares about any Palestinian cause?
  11. Why is the Hamas leadership living in luxury in Qatar? Why are the Iranian generals holed up in five-star hotels in Lebanon?
  12. All of them? Or just some bad apples? I met a fabulous couple, husband and wife, up in Chiang Mai. He was ex- military. He didn't like the behavior of some of them and also didn't have much good to say about the ultra-Orthodox dodge drafters.
