Looks like nothing has changed since I left a couple of years ago.  

During holidays in Thailand I would pull over, rent a hotel and wait it out , if I happened to be traveling during one.

Exactly the same as we did,....wait it out in a roadside hotel or resort !!!

So obviously your 'Best Efforts' are not good enough. Get the Cops to actually do their job of Patrolling the roads, and stop bad driving, checkpoints don't work and never have, and never will, but you repeat the same "Efforts" every year and Fail.

Well this admiral went to work for the Carlyle Group which is heavily invested in the American military industrial complex. NATO expansion is a long running scam. Each new NATO country must conform to NATO standards for all their mutations.  Corrupt politicians who receive campaign contributions from munitions manufacturers pay them back by creating these new customers.  

Some members of the Carlyle Group are ex presidents, ex prime ministers, like George W. Bush and Family, Thaksin Shinawatra, Tony Blair,....

No! Just NO! This should not be granted permission. Lest Thailand been seen accused of aiding and abetting Myanmar in against it's citizens. If these military officers (and family) crossed illegally into Thailand, they should either be arrested and detained on suspicion of war crimes, or simply forced back across the border into their own country (in the same way as ordinary Myanmar civilians are normally repatriated).

I choose to live in Thailand knowing well (been living here off and on for 50 years, pollution in the burning season has been around all of those 50 but spreads just about every growing season as farmers need more money to eat rice or whatever.  Big business when they went to ethanol and needed corn for the mixture in fuels, sugar cane burning is getting bigger as they can get more money and the health issues - we were told on this forum in the news media that the pm wouldn't call CM an emergency site (so that they could get additional funds to fight the fires and pollution) because it might scare tourists away.

You are right they shouldn't be working, but there is another reason why a night club would employ farangs, It attracts other farangs, over the years here were I live any bar run and owned by a Thai doesn't last 5 minutes, 

Farangs tend to go in Farang owned bars, 

A good Farang DJ has a lot more knowledge of the latest music than a Thai DJ,...

He may be telling the French what the French want to hear. The French (a timorous lot with no balls nowadays alas) are "worried" about cannabis liberalisation in Germany too. The difference is, the German premier is not going to promise re-criminalisation on a French channel just so that the French give him kudos.

 

What we need is more major countries pulling the plug on prohibition so that prohibition countries feel increasingly isolated.

As of today I heard on the radio, it's legal in Germany ! and I hope it's not a April joke !?

I see recreational drugs, tobacco, now cannabis, as having young Thai men, some that are still kids, as main users.

They start early morning to come get their bottle of cannabis, hemp products, cigarette in the mouth, as these immature men need something like that to make them feel part of a crowds, and feel like men. And a lot of money is spent on these products. Just one seller close by here, bought a new Honda car, and a new motorbike as well.

 

Men that are already immature, not wanting to take responsibility for their actions, even responsibility for children that they father along.

Now the number of cannabis shops are on a course to surpass the number of 7-11 shops.

 

I do not see anything good coming out of that in Thailand.

 

Perhaps the government had good intentions at the onset of the liberalization of cannabis, and what they see makes them question their first decision...

Hm,...Not the same government.

Do you expect Israel to any different to every other Country ?

The enemy combatant/civilian death ration is very low , some claim to be the lowest on record , that is the number of civilian killed compared to enemy combatants .

   The ration is often 4 civilians killed to one enemy combatant 

Hm,...And how many enemy combatants were amongst the 11.000 children murdered !???

 You forgot to mention that it was and is official position of the “great and democratic” countries like Syria and Iran to annihilate Israel. Every action Israel takes against these awful regimes is a part of self-defence. 
 The fact that Israel, presumably, have a nuclear bomb, does not prevent it from being attacked on a daily basis for 70+ years. From all the sides, by any means available to its medieval and inhuman neighbors.

The whole western world does support Israel but it is Israel and its people facing the enemy every day of their life. Try to understand that for the ordinary Muslim fanatic there is only one important thing they fight against - the very existence of the Israeli state on “their lands”. Now try to make peace with them by turning the other cheek.
