  1. 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.
  2. And this is the size of it, ignored by the Wokies.
  3. 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?
  4. Why is the Hamas leadership living in luxury in Qatar? Why are the Iranian generals holed up in five-star hotels in Lebanon?
  5. 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.
  6. They had nothing stolen; it was a desert wasteland, and there has never been a Palestine, but there has always been an Israel.
  7. But beheading and raping babies on October 7th is fine in your book? Those kids in Gaza are brought up from birth and indoctrinated by their mothers and the mosques to wage jihad. Why do you think they are taught how to use automatic weapons from 5 years old and paraded proudly on TV?
  8. Sorry, Are you referring to re-entry? If it's just normal exit, then there are no issues, at least I didn't have any.
  9. I've used them at Suvarnabhumi with no stamps and then re-entered without issues. I'm going out from DMK International this Saturday, so I will check, but I can't see any problem.
  10. Pathetic shopkeeper, deserves to go bankrupt. Would he serve Russians for their illegal attack on Ukraine? How about the poor Cambodians in the border dispute? Any thoughts on them? Sudan, that's a place not going well. Selective with his outrage, no doubt!
  11. Is it fairly quick to get through as a rule? I will fly in from DMK late morning in April and was unsure what to expect or to try to pay and get a fast track. I am a Brit, so it's a stamp on entry and no visa worries, plus I am only taking hand luggage.
  12. Empty vans? You must have strong bogans in Aussie-land.
