You have to wonder isn't it what will be the next desperate move by the TAD (Sorry, but because of their actions they are simply "Thugs") to fight against the evil tyrantical PM Somchai,  who is just a henceman to the evil Dr. T who want to rule Thailand ?  Well, they are fighting tyrany with tyrany.  But still the most shameless and immoral PM  Somchai is still insist on power. If you are the biggest thug of all (Some might call him the savior of Thailand), Mr Sonthi, What will you do?Let see, 1)Thai economy, image, tourism is in ruin 2) You have so much world attention and people on your ʧ¤ÃÒäÃÑé§ÊØ´·éÒÂÃéǹà´ÕÂǨº.  Not to mention well-armed Srivichai warriors and guards at your dispposal3) You have notthing to lose now.  Heck, if the TAD is unsucessful you might find yourself unwelcomed in any place in the world. Here is what I will do1) Create much more chaos and this time in the Bangkok Central Business District and force shut down major hight way in and out of Bangkok to completely paralyze the whole country 2) Do a pre-emtive strike against leaderships of the Red Shirt Thugs to immobilize your rival thugs3)  Tease and make fun of the military long and hard enough and they might start a coup You think this is extreme?  not any more or less extreme than what the TAD is doing right now.What for you to lose?  Notthing,  You are doing this to free your beloved country from the tyrantical influent of the hyper ego-maniac name Thaskin right?  Or are you just simply another power hunger maniac who want to be in power next?Heck, I have never written anything this extreme before, but now is the time.  I have no doubt in my mind who are the real tyrants that are mercilessly destroying my beloved country right at this moment.

I don't think this journal would constitute any kind of yellow card or deletion. The PAD have already put two airports out of business... Is it really THAT big of a stretch that they'd send people to cut off a highway or disrupt the business districts of BKK? Not a stretch at all. In fact, it would be a damn sight easier than closing off the airports and would cause even MORE chaos and disruption. They could seal off the highway leading towards CM heading out of BKK for the reason of blocking off the MPs from attending the cabinet meeting in CM.

They should probably launch a criminal suit about the forceful actions against protesters with substandard smoke bombs, badly trained officers firing directly people and such directly against Police command as well as the PM, Minister of Internal Affairs as well as the Defence Minister. They could also file suits about dereliction of duty for lacking political will to revoke passports, for failing to take responsibility for the forceful anti-riot deployment as well as for no progress being made in arrests of war-like behaviour of throwing grenades. They could give it more credency by looking at feasibility of having these started in international courts as well.

It is strange to see that Police is not able to find anybody who launches a bomb attack? (By the rate that's been happening, we would expect to be able to buy some on the sukhumvit stalls in the evening) but are able to provide 150-300 police officers to guard the NBT station. I Do agree that after the attacks over there that it is warranted for, but Police seem to have taken a very biased role and legal action might be the way to tackle that. After all Mr T is himself a police officer who married the daughter of a police officer. The Shin computer empire started as a result of that police-relationship. If you do a quick google of his previous business ventures, almost all of them (10+) were failures, until that moment. Makes one wonder how one can easily launch become a billionaire before being invited to come into politcs. He has made some great achievements for himself and for Thai people, but a lot of his business deals have always been shady (the IBC/UBC to name just one).

I am glad I live where I do and can travel when I want with freedom but feel sorry for those caught up in turmoil that can only do Thailand damage for now and the future and may I say our press here in Australia are having a field day as the thugs keeping,AN" INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT CLOSED".

It's even getting more exposure than the Muslium bombings in India.

just so you know- bangkok isn't 'the whole country'!!

and BJ, although it seems likely that the shootings (there were no bombs, it was grenades that caused blasts) in Mumbai were Muslim attacks, it is not confirmed yet, so dont make assumptions that are not based on fact...

Bring back Taskin [after all he was the elected leader of the country before power was illegally seized from him] give him a pardon and let him run the country for 2 years. I mean lets face it how bad could that be? Worse than it has been since 2006? Not likely!

Since around 2005 all that has followed has been a perfect example of how to wreck a country and bring it down to a level it has not been at for years!

Taskin was at least a democrat [dont matter how good or bad he was- things were actually working under his premiership] and would have been retired in due course anyway.

May I just correct the name THAKSIN.

Taksin is a name of our great king.

THAKSIN is a crook.
