Thais inferiority complex.
Six thousand years ago, the Khmer and Mon peoples arrived in the Indo-Chinese Peninsula. The Mon settled in Burma and adopted Buddhism as early as the third century BC, under the influence of Asoka, the great Indian emperor. During this time, the Khmer settled in what is now Thailand, Laos, southern Vietnam, and Cambodia. Between the first and sixth centuries, they established the kingdoms of Funan and Chenla.
At that time, there were no Thais in the region, let alone a country called Thailand.
The Khmer Empire, which emerged from the seventh to the fourteenth centuries, spread to what are now Burma, Laos, Cambodia, and southern Vietnam.
The Siamese (Thai) only arrived from China in the 6th century and were eventually integrated into Khmer culture. All Khmer temples in Thailand were built by the Khmer Empire. The Khmer were primarily Shaivist and Buddhist, with a few exceptions, such as Angkor Wat (the largest religious temple in the world), which was originally a Vishnu temple. However, all Khmer temples today are Buddhist, such as Preah Vihear, which was shamefully bombed yesterday by Thai forces, and which was a Shaivist temple in the 12th century.
The fall of the Burmese Empire to the Mongol army paved the way for the Thais to establish their own city-states, such as Ayutthaya. It is important to note, however, that this civilization was actually a blend of Siamese and Khmer cultures, as historian Michael Vickery explains.
These peoples then rebelled against the central power of Angkor and the Khmer Empire, leading to the sack of Angkor and the fall of the Empire. This pattern is reminiscent of the revolt of the English colonies in America against the authoritarian and centralized power in London.
Since then, Thais have developed an inferiority complex towards the Khmer and Khmer civilization. This inferiority stems from the fact that Thai culture developed within an already highly developed Khmer society. This Khmer influence has profoundly influenced Thai culture and history. For example, Thai writing, dance, boxing, and music all have Khmer roots, as evidenced by the bas-reliefs and inscriptions on Khmer temples.
Ironically, Surin Province, where the fighting took place, is home to a population of Khmer origin, the Surin Khmer. This situation inevitably recalls the Russo-Ukrainian conflict, where brothers kill each other.
This conflict, between the young Thai kingdom and the ancient Khmer empire, has its roots in a long history, but today, Thailand is a large country, with a population of 72 million and a highly developed economy. It is time for Thais to become psychologically independent and forget about little Cambodia. Leave us alone and mind your own business.
Finally, know that the Preah Vihear temple is on Cambodian territory and will remain so. It is high time to turn the page and move on.

@RadioGenoa Israel and the Iranian people against the Islamic Republic.

[Devi Vanhon @DeviVanhon]

@FranceskAlbs Unprovoked? 🤣
The entire Islamic Republic of Iran’s raison d’être is to provoke Israel. Since 1979 all they’ve been threatening to do is to wipe off Israel off the map.

Deux semaines après la finale de l'#Eurovision, le chef de la délégation israélienne révèle dans une interview à Ynet ce qui s'est passé en coulisses :

- La délégation n'avait pas le droit de sortir de l'hôtel

- Chaque membre de la délégation avait sur lui un signal GPS type Airtag afin d'être en permanence localisé par la sécurité israélienne

- Les délégations d'autres pays exigeaient ne pas être filmées avec Eden Golan et menaçaient les Israéliens s'ils publiaient des photos ou vidéos avec elles. L'équipe du chanteur finlandais de 2023 a hurlé sur l'équipe digitale israélienne pour lui demander de retirer une vidéo dans laquelle on voit Eden et le Finlandais ensemble.

- La relation entre la délégation israélienne et les autres s'est degradée à partir du moment où #Israel est passé en 2nd position dans les paris, après la demi finale. Plusieurs autres délégations ont soudainement laissé éclater leur haine. "D'un coup ils se sont lancés dans une compétition qui sera le plus agressif envers Israel"

- Il assure qu'un message a été passé aux juges de plusieurs pays de ne pas voter pour la chanson israélienne (en témoigne l'écart, 52 points donnés par les juges et plus de 300 par le public)

- Lorsque les organisateurs du concours ont demandé à la délégation israélienne de partir du lieu principal pour être mis dans un lieu éloigné des autres délégations, il leur a répondu : "la dernière fois qu'en Europe on a mis ainsi les juifs à part c'était en 1939, ça ne les a pas beaucoup impressioné"

Bref, un champ de bataille plus qu'un concours de muisque.
