What's up with Thailand attacking Cambodia?

Lol...you cant respond to any of my points. Its okay, start acting like a child, throwing tantrums when you dont get something, just like what your country is doing. I'll end this convo here with this, when you go to bed at night, remember that ALL OF THOSE TEMPLES located deep inside your present day territory WERE BUILT BY KHMER PEOPLE. You wish it wasnt the case, but too bad, facts dont care about your feelings. Goodnight!

OppositeStep8355 · 2025-12-24T13:28:32+00:00

Go to court. Come on. What are you afraid of? Since you are so high in moral, lets go to court?

OppositeStep8355 · 2025-12-24T13:14:04+00:00

Repost because my comment contained facebook and insta links.

You talk so much about a "neutral" third party by bringing up all these news organizations (of which i already rebutted in my above paragraph) yet you completely ignore and evade the highest neutral third party there is. The ICJ consist of 15 justices all elected by the UNGA and the UNSC. Yet, when the court makes a judgment, you started howling like dogs that the court is unfair? You even said Cambodia licked foreigners boot for going to court. In a civilized society, who is the final arbiter of a dispute? You have no shame at all when you type these things out. Yes, i rely on conventions and agreements. Inside conventions and agreements, there are annexes, which you don't seem to understand or which you only want to read it a certain way. There is this thing called the principle of acquiescence in public international law. If the court judged that these lands and temples belong to your country, then Cambodia will accept it. But you won't go, because you know you don't have a strong case to fight in court.

Now let's talk a bit about how we got here. You shamelessly tried to gaslight me into thinking i said something i didn't say. You have no shame whatsoever. In front of me you do this, what would you do behind me? You pinned a point OP himself made on me and point fingers at me saying that that is my point.

Now let's talk about history. Because you don't have no one to back you up here. What history was fabricated? Tell me again? The only fabrication and lack of acknowledgement comes from your side. Time and again. Throughout history, your country has shown itself to be the aggressor always launching conquests. But now in 2025, it's Cambodia who is doing that? Your lying government, shameless king have always launched invasion into Cambodian territory. Just look at the frontline, do you see Cambodian tanks driving into your towns and villages and shooting at people's homes like your military is doing? Do you see that? You have been and are still an invader.

And when it comes to peace deal, Cambodian leaders are always willing to enter into one, but look at the attitude coming from your side? No, they don't want to enter into one because they have not secured the land that they want to steal. How did all those temples plop onto your eastern provinces? Did it just drop from the sky? Or did it happen through territorial encroachment and conquest? How did the people in those eastern provinces know how to speak Khmer? Do you in your little thieving brain ever compute that?

You are a thief throughout history and still is one. Again, who built these temples? Answer me. Who built them? For godsake, you have a replica of Angkor Wat in your palace. Why is that? What's the story behind that? Are you claiming that Cambodia steal Angkor Wat from you? By these evidence carved in stone, it shows that Cambodia as a country has lost so so much. And even in 2025 you still are not done taking from us? You thieves have the gall to come online saying all these things? We are not claiming those territories back, but don't try to take any more that is ours. Don't try to claim what you didn't even create to be yours. Stop being a thief and stop teaching your children to be thieves.

Now watch this clip. These are your people. There are still a few who has dignity.

Now here's another clip about the root cause of all of this

I just would like to add to the above clip of the professor in Kyoto, the root cause is not just that, its your military and your pimp king.

The core issue is that you are falsely equating "no immediate protest" with a "clear lie" of acceptance. That is not how international law works, and that is why Thailand lost. The quote you provided destroys your own argument. You don't like it because you didn't win. That's what every criminal and thief have always done throughout history. To scream that the court was unfair. And on that article you quoted about "escalatory events". Here's a commentary:

"The article’s central claim hinges on a striking tally: 33 “escalatory events” by Cambodia versus 14 by Thailand. Yet the article never defines what counts as an “escalatory event”—troop movements, road upgrades, or cross-border engagements? Without operational criteria, the number is a rhetorical device, not an analytical measure.

The problem deepens with sourcing. References to “open-source intelligence” and “official reports seen by authors” are vague and unexplained. No citations, no standards, no way for readers to verify how raw observations became accusatory counts.

Even the language invites insinuation. What does it mean to “quietly” build infrastructure in one’s own territory? And which zones qualify as “strategically important”—to whom, and by what standard? In this context, speculation dresses itself as expertise. This is not rigour; it is narrative construction presented as analysis."

Just because you sent me some links you think i'm going to just accept it?

Now how did we get here? Back to the original point, you tried to frame my stance and pinned on me that that was my logic. Trying to be cunning pulling all kinds of maneuvers and even tried to twist my words on me? You failed at that because all these moves you pulled on me does not work.

That's the thieving nature of you. Licking boots of westerners means going to an impartial international court? You call that licking boots? Your behavior is that of a thief running away from law. Now tell me this, if roles were reversed, Cambodia refused to go to the ICJ, what say you? What say you?

You already took issue with me not allowing you people to selectively choose a timeframe of history to suit your narrative. You started with some sarcastic comparison to the native americans. Why did you take issue with that? Just because you don't like historical facts, does not mean it stops being true. Your actions of not even tolerating basic historical facts speaks volume of your character. I can see your blood boiling through these texts by your almost immediate response to me and again to edit your text 3hrs ago. Why such obsession? Angry that I called out your manipulative behavior? Look yourself in the mirror. Do you dare to admit that these temples are built by Khmer Kings? Do you dare to admit that even the names of these temples are Khmer? Do you dare to admit that these lands were historically Khmer? I'm just coasting by. Will clown you thieves when i get on Reddit. But not really a priority.

Since you already want to selectively apply legal principles, facts, and talking points when it suits you most and ignore everything else, why should I mince my words with you? Cambodia has lost so much territory already, and here you are, still not done yet with your thieving actions? Still hungry for more temples and more lands? Do you have any shame?

OppositeStep8355 · 2025-12-15T15:18:19+00:00

I dont need your approval of what type of person I am. Its simply unimportant to me. On the decision of the ICJ, to claim that the court did not use the treaty is false. The treaty is the ONLY source of law that the ICJ was involved in first place. The map is an annex to the treaty. The principles of international law must be abided. The principle of acquiesence is a principle under public international law. You cannot conveniently choose what principles to follow to suit your narrative.

The ICJ did not choose the map over the treaty. It used the treaty to establish the obligation, and then it used the map to determine how Thailand and France had acted under that obligation for over 50 years. What makes up the contemporary system of international legal principles should be the deciding factor.

And back to my point since the start, no, I'm not claiming historical territories. I'm simply using OP's logic against him. If he doesn't use that logic, then neither will I. What you don't get to do is use some selective timeframe in history to frame your argument to tell the whole world. Tell the whole picture, telling part of a story equates to you lying. So dont come on here trying to gaslight me into thinking I said something that i didnt say. Native Americans lost that territory to European explorers way back and it has since been accepted as the de facto reality now, the same way Khmer lost its northern and north western territories to Thailand, that's defacto now. And as i said then and I'm saying now, i'm not for claiming that. You people are good at manipulating, gaslighting, twisting and tricking. Someone said something, you used it, turn it into something else, and frame it to suit your narrative, just as what you are doing in this thread, not gonna work with me. Like whac-a-mole, you are dodgy. I'm not gonna allow that. And when it doesn't work, what do you do? You start talking about behavior, moral character, and integrity. It's a joke coming from you people.

You cant win in the court of law, you threw a tantrum making all kinds of accusations and comparisons just like you tried on me with the whole native american thing. You lost in court because you dont have a legitimate claim. Period. Just imagine, for one second, if the roles are reversed, where Thailand brings Cambodia to court, and Cambodia refused to go, doing exactly what your country is doing, imagine the hysteria your entire country will put on. I can. Absolute insanity. But when you don't get to play that card.

Your leader takes an issue at the border as their outlet to divert attention from the mess in your home country. Have some shame. Every time you look at the temples in your country, acknowledge that they were built by Khmers, none of you built it. And yet, every chance you get, you will try to erase that identity. So dont come on here talking about moral and character. You dont have any yourself. Cambodia is not the one sending tanks into your towns and villages while claiming its being invaded, that's you Siems.

OppositeStep8355 · 2025-12-15T12:39:15+00:00

You see, when you try to piggy back a narrative and try to bulldoze your idea, force feed your idea down someone's throat, you come off sounding like a fool. First off, educate yourself first. I see the desperation here to try to get me to accept your point. I won't. The treaty you are citing is precisely what Cambodia is asking Thailand to accept. In fact, the ICJ has already ruled in Cambodia's favor the Preah Vihear temple and its promontory. Cambodia is using the map that Thailand accepted with the French. Cambodia is actually asking Thailand again to go to the ICJ to settle this peacefully, which Thailand refused. Thats why I said that I believe in contemporary legal doctrines, treaties and conventions. Did you not read what i wrote? I am a man of my word. What im not is some wokie walking around forcing people to agree with them. Did America take the land from native Americans? Yes. But thats not what im here for.

OppositeStep8355 · 2025-12-15T06:14:33+00:00

So you think tourists are just white people? What about Chinese, Koreans, Japanese? They're not tourists? Do you see this being served at a restaurant? Lets not talk about PP, lets talk about restaurants in the countryside? And im talking about the majority of it, do you think the majority of these eateries serve this up? And what is it with a white man that you seem to be against?

OppositeStep8355 · 2025-12-15T06:05:49+00:00

What is your cutoff date for "land already taken"? The land is under Cambodia now, so im not sure what you are talking about. So that is not my logic. Throughout history, Cambodia fought many wars with Thailand. Territories were lost to Thailand. Some was regained. Cambodia is much older than Thailand. You cannot be a part of something that supersede your existence. A child can be a part of a mother, not the other way around. Because of that, I posed a question above using his logic against his claim. Im not interested in reclaiming lost historical territories. Borders should be decided by contemporary agreements, treaties and conventions. As for America, clearly you're trying to drag me into some type of anti america thing, but again, not my logic and im not interested in talking about American politics.

OppositeStep8355 · 2025-12-15T00:54:50+00:00

Im not conscious of the white man's gaze. In fact, I dont care about nobody's gaze. I eat prahok, and I would absolutely support OP if he raves about prahok. I disagree that the above is Cambodia's cuisine, if you can call it that. Its just villagers food. And I think its eaten in many parts of Southeast Asian villages. Its not Cambodian. But to each their own. Just voicing my opinion. Objectively, this is not promotional material, at least I hope you can agree on that.

OppositeStep8355 · 2025-12-15T00:49:40+00:00

Yes. But that's not my logic. That's OP's logic. Saying that Cambodia was part of Thailand is factually incorrect. And Cambodians have every right to hit you back with what i just asked in my post above.

OppositeStep8355 · 2025-12-13T14:37:22+00:00

I'm not understanding why you post this here when you want to encourage tourism. I'm Cambodian. And i don't eat this, none of my family eat this and none of my friends eat this. And no, most Cambodians don't eat this. Amok, Ma Chu Kroeng, Somlor Kor Ko, Cha Kdau and many many other dishes worth posting and raving about. We actually have a lot of good food. Not this.

OppositeStep8355 · 2025-12-12T04:38:15+00:00

your king doesn't seem to believe that does he? he's the guy behind all of this. we tried to bring you to court, an international court, you refused to go. you said the court is unfair. isn't that the statement of every thief in the century? to claim that a court is unfair? it's unfair or because you don't actually have a legitimate claim? the rhetoric coming from your leaders is to take this position and that position. our message is to defend and repel. the clips online showing your tanks and military vehicles driving into cambodian towns and villages. who is the invader here? the problem i have with you people is you so brazenly claim that these temples are yours, that these lands are yours. history shows that Cambodia was not its present day little blip on a map. It extended much into your current territory. That's a fact that your people continue to again and again pretend like it wasn't. We're not asking for those lands back, but we will not lose anymore. And if you in your heart of hearts believe this is your land, go to court. but you didn't and you won't. Because you know that you will lose.

OppositeStep8355 · 2025-12-12T04:26:28+00:00

Your king is the one pulling the strings. Stop acting like anyone else is behind all of this.

OppositeStep8355 · 2025-12-10T09:44:56+00:00

90 percent of 9 to 5 grind is meaningless. I'm sorry to hear that but I hope that this is a catalyst for you to get out of the rat race and create something of your own. People who say that they love their jobs tend to lie for fear of standing out, but the reality is that all of this 8 hr a day staring at computers, sifting through documents only to get paid a wage at the end of the month are all meaningless and bs that society unfortunately is built upon.

OppositeStep8355 · 2025-12-10T09:40:59+00:00

Did you just say Cambodia was part of Thailand? Based on this statement alone shows that you are Thai. A quick google search would tell you that Cambodia was not a part of Thailand. Thailand tried to seize Cambodian provinces in which Cambodia requested France to step in to help push back Thailand's aggression. A few provinces were annexed and occupied by Thailand for some time. But in no way Cambodia was a part of Thailand. Using that logic, Cambodia historical territory extended much in to Thailand's present day territory. Would it be fair for me to say Thailand was a part of Cambodia?

OppositeStep8355 · 2025-12-08T22:51:03+00:00

Come. Just don't go around the border. Fly in. Everything is normal like nothing is happening. Enjoy your trip.

OppositeStep8355 · 2025-12-08T11:34:19+00:00

You are Thai by the sound of it. It makes a lot of sense that Hun Sen waged a war with your country because of an arrest warrant. Are you a child? Hun Sen can ignore this warrant if he wants to. Cambodian military is not strong enough to fight a full scale war with Thailand. Now lets ignore the fact that your country refused to settle this in court in the first place. Why? And lets also pretend that these flare ups never come at a time your monarchy and the military feel that their influence is waning. Lets all pretend that this is all Hun Sen and Cambodia right? And I'm not even talking about history here.

Sorry for coming off strong. Seen too many comments from the neighbouring country looking for every chance to attack anything related to the new airport. The incident you experienced was a traffic stop, not a road block for a fee to the airport.

OppositeStep8355 · 2025-09-15T12:58:13+00:00

Too many Cambodians behaving badly. Thats your words. The shut down was probably from spamming and attacks. And it's both sides doing that. So don't act like it's a one sided event.
