If you are twinking a new monk on a mature server, STA is the best choice for most. This is what most people are asking for with these threads. This is regardless of race.
If you are starting out as a monk on a fresh server, STR is the best choice and it's not even close. You won't be capping STR for a long time and it's a constant dps boost for your entire leveling progression, most of which you will definitely not be capping STR. STA is terrible HP returns for most of your leveling progression, and only really shines in later kunark/early velious when you are lvl 60 and don't have velious raid gear yet. It doesn't take long to hit 255 STA buffed in velious. The tradeoff is essentially having +20 STR while leveling for many months vs having uncapped STA for a few months.
