BANGKOK, Thailand -- Cross-border rocket attacks on the morning of July 29, by U.S.-armed Thailand and China-assisted Cambodia, "violated" a ceasefire brokered by President Trump who linked it to possibly lowering his 36 percent U.S. import taxes on exports from the two Southeast Asian nations.
Thai and Cambodian army commanders however met for lunch on July 29 and appeared to put a halt to their six days of bloodiest fighting in a decade.
Thailand blamed Cambodia for violating the first day of the ceasefire on July 29 by firing their dreaded Soviet-era, truck-mounted, multi-rocket artillery which unleashed unguided warheads onto Thai soil, prompting Thailand to retaliate with higher precision artillery.
Beyond the battlefield, the fighting may be bolstering the hawkish, highly politized, Royal Thai Army's influence which appears to be gaining some domination over Bangkok's fractured elected coalition government after officials indicated the military was being allowed to unilaterally make decisions where and when to open fire.
For decades, countless U.S. officials have proclaimed that the bonds between the United States and Israel are unbreakable. Now, the ties that bind are laced with genocide. The two countries function as accomplices while methodical killing continues in Gaza, with both societies directly – and differently – making it all possible.
Myth #1: Infidel does not mean "Westerner" or a "non-Muslim". The term refers to disbelievers, people who do not believe in God. It is also mentioned in the Bible, and it means the same in Arabic. Muslims refers to Jews and Christians as the "people of the book." Muslim men are allowed to marry Christians and Jews but not disbelievers or "kafirs."
Myth #2: While Sec. Pete Hegseth has his body littered with tattoos, he has never been a gang member, and no one accused him of aggravated assault, robbery, rape, and murder. Reason? He's a white man and neither Latino nor Black!
It’s all over but the official count. Georgia Republicans can’t win the Senate seat now held by Democrat Jon Ossoff — the demographics will drown them: Georgia is now a “majority minority” state with non-whites predominant. EXCEPT. EXCEPT if the GOP can come up with a way to stop those un-white voters from voting.
And they have. This week, the violently partisan Republican Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger, announced that he is removing tens of thousands of voters who live in addresses that Republicans rarely haunt: office spaces used as housing [and] homes with 10 or more registrants.
President Trump is whining during his vacation in Scotland for not getting a thank you note after he claimed that two weeks ago the US gave $60 million worth of food to the Palestinians in Gaza, adding that he deserved to be thanked for this. Fact checks, Mr. Trump did not specify where these funds have come from or to whom they have been sent but last month. However, The Guardian revealed that the US had authorized a $30m grant to the controversial Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF).
First of all, I have lived in America for nearly 50 years, and I don't recall any presidents before him, Republican or Democrat, who required a "thank you" for any aid they provided in times of need. Why should Gazans thank this crybaby for something they have not received? Unless it came out of his pocket, why should there be a thank you to him anyway? 47 is very good in spreading misinformation.
A former security contractor for Gaza's controversial new Israel- and US-backed aid distribution sites for GHF has told the BBC that he witnessed colleagues opening fire several times on hungry Palestinians who had posed no threat including with machine guns.
