WHEN YOU REALIZE THE BABY BOOM WASN'T JUST SOLDIERS COMING HOME HORNY.
It was soldiers coming home to the GI Bill free college, 0% down home loans, low-interest business loans.
It was strong unions. Pensions. A house that cost 2 years of salary.
It was confidence that the future was actually going to be better than the present.
That's what produced a baby boom. Not romance. Security.
You want a higher birth rate now?
Give people a future where they know their kids will actually be okay.
That's the whole formula. It's not complicated. It's just expensive, and nobody in charge wants to pay for it twice.
So after years of being shitty to local Thais, committing financial crimes, harassing local businesses, creating Israeli-only spaces where Zio trash can conduct illegal businesses and activities after a large number of them have slaughtered and terrorised Palestinians, and not to mention generally being horrible to other travellers in Thailand, Israel has decided to send another one of its guys over to try to repair the image of Israelis in Thailand.
This action is of course manipulative, insincere and fuelled by self interest. It’s so insulting it could be considered parody, like sending some guy to do a Mamdani cosplay in Bangkok is somehow going to improve Israelis reputation in Thailand.
Oh and Thai people should know that Israel recently increased its global public diplomacy budget to $726 million in 2026. A massive increase from $150 million from last year. See when you’re a state facing global condemnation for its military actions against Palestine you need a lot of money to manage your image.
Congratulations, you discovered that China fought in the Korean War.
Nobody fucking forgot.
Now answer the part your little colonial brain keeps dodging:
Did China annex North Korean territory?
Did China permanently station its army there?
Did China turn North Korea into an overseas military outpost?
Did Beijing build a permanent military command structure on Korean soil and use it as a forward base against neighboring powers?
No.
Chinese forces fought, bled, and eventually withdrew.
That is rather different from building an entire regional security architecture around permanent overseas military presence and calling dependency “sovereignty.”
Which makes this performance especially hilarious coming from you.
Singapore provides extensive military access and logistical facilities to the United States, then one of its geopolitical hall monitors crawls onto Chinese posts to lecture China about militarism.
Fucking spare me.
China crossed the Yalu and came home.
Your entire strategic profession seems to revolve around making yourself useful to powers that never do.
Learn the difference between fighting a war and turning another country into your permanent military real estate before barking about history.
After the US insurance giant AIG helped tank the American economy in 2008 with its reckless gambling and accounting frauds, the chairman of AIG, Maurice Greenberg, filed a $55 billion lawsuit against the federal government for not giving him a big enough bailout -- and won.
incredible how a tribe of pastoral steppe nomads conquered India 4,000 years ago, convinced the people they subjugated that the cows they brought were “sacred”, and millennia later Indians are still eating cow dung and pulling hijinks like this.
just totally brainrарed

Bruno made a Vitinha and Neves pivot look ordinary and get dominated by the likes of Congo, Colombia and Croatia.
So why did we except anything different from Tielemans and Santos on their debuts away from home.
He is the true issue in this team. Won’t control games with him.
