P.S. It looks to me like that impertinent tool at the UN played Bush like a Stradivarius. Now Bush won't stop pushing the ante up.

It is a sad paradox, is it not? We are taking care of Muslims in terrorist strongholds, and playing one-upsmanship politics with it -- taxpayer money to Muslims -- I am also having a real hard struggle with this one too, as are many Americans. That being said, screw the U.N. and its criminal leader.
Huh? Which NGO did you get this load of crap from? There is no 'slavery' in this area. None. Zero. Sorry to break the news to you. This type of stuff does happen in the north in some areas along the northwest Thai/Burma border, but hardly in Pukhet. Thanks for playing.
"RUSH: It's an interesting psychological question, is it not? I raised the same point in the last hour by pointing out that Saddam Hussein killed twice as many people as this tsunami has, maybe more."
But then on the other hand, poor old Saddam hasn't killed anywhere near the 1.5 million babies we kill every year.
I've been to Sri Lanka in 1981, they were certainly not Muslims in Colombo.
There is a lot of places in Thailand for that stuff, the PatPong, Pattaya, Patong is the place hit I think
Thailand is now an allie of the USA.

On January 30th 1984, fire broke Out in a brothel in Phuket in southern Thailand. The charred bodies of five young girls aged between 9 and 12 were discovered in the basement ruins of the brothel. They had been chained to their beds and locked in to prevent their escape.
In one raid on a brothel in Phuket, 17 girls were rescued. Aged from 11 to 17, 5 were HIV positive, the rest had VD and 1 was pregnant.
In addition to being the sex capitol of SE Asia, it is also known in the intel world as the inter-government drug deal capitol of the WORLD.
th
Umm,both Rush & a caller are wrong on one point,the vast majority of people who died in South India were Christian fishermen & their families & some Hindus-the number of Muslims were very limited.
The same website, paralumun.com, also talks about sexual slavery in the US. Moot point. Yes, it does happen, but it is not common at all. The girls working in bars are there by choice because they want to be. The laws concerning sex with minors in Thailand is very strict consisting of between 5 to 20 years in a Thai jail. A fate I wouldn't wish on anyone.

Thailand's Sex Industry

Is sexual tourism legitimate? The question is, of course, almost irrelevant. It exists. It has always existed. And the sex industry in Asia will continue to exist for the foreseeable future.
Nowhere else is it so open and prevalent. Manila, Bombay, Phuket - they have reputations -- reputations that are not undeserved. But even Amsterdam, with perhaps the most freewheeling redlight district in Europe, does not rival Bangkok because many of the rules and restrictions placed on clients in a European setting are not enforced in Asia.
Phuket is where the tsunami hit.

Phuket
Possessed & Purified (September 2003)
The devotees at the Phuket Vegetarian Festival are sometimes called ma song (entranced horses) because its believed...
Patpong is one of three 'nightlife' areas in Bangkok. The other two are Nana Plaza and Soi Cowboy. Patpong is mostly a tourist destination and is only still there because of its reputation. New Orleans has much more on display than Patpong.
Pattaya is a beach area about an hour south of Bangkok. It is truely the sin capital of the world.
Patong is one of the beaches in Phuket and was damaged by the tsunami.
All I want for Christmas is the Useless Nations GONE from our shores!!!!
What is your reason for posting that? If you have questions about Thailand, I will be happy to answer them.
Phuket-surely you jest?
There is something fishy about this whole picture. We may eventually spend $1 billion when you consider our military forces being used: a aircraft carrier here, a few ships there, and the costs begin to add up. Then outside of our government monies spent, you have private individuals who are digging deep into their pockets. All of this money is going out of country and not into our economy. DO WE HAVE A ECONOMIST DOCTOR IN THE HOUSE? I THINK WE ARE SPENDING OUTSELVES TO OUR PERIL.
If you ask me, our nation's security is also being impacted by this disaster. Will we have the economic flexibility if we had new crisis of the military kind? What if North Korea were to invade South Korea? What if China were to invade Taiwan? Such events would really cost us.
Yo previously stated there was no sex traffic where the tsunami hit Thailand.
You were wrong.
I've been to Pattaya twice, 80 and 81
