Apparently , they need an army to fight a virus they don't have whilst defending the country against invasion from countries that don't want to invade them ! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Tracy Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Hmm, army chief, talking about discretion when exercising rights? Everyone is under Royal protection? Does that mean the veiled threats are just that, veiled? Royal protection wins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spidermike007 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 The army is the party that needs to behave itself and show respect toward the masses and the youth. Peaceful protests benefit society. The army does not. Any resistance to the protests will be interpreted as a heinous abuse of power. Their time in power is winding down. They just don't know it yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herfiehandbag Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 He is of course the very model of discretion. There is a widely available video clip, of him indulging in what might be described as "kinetic discretion" against some demonstrators with whose viewpoint he took exception. Using boots, fists and brandishing a weapon - he actually had to be hauled away by cooler heads amongst his staff. Wasn't crying though; maybe he has mellowed... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"The government's move to solve various issues is going well and many authorities are also providing cooperation, so if we are all united, we will be able to overcome the fragile point." A veiled threat if ever there was one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right but peaceful protests just do not have enough impact unfortunately . Then again violent outbreaks are not always done by the protesters if you know what i mean. This country needs some clear heads,not corrupted by greed and hunger for power. Time will tell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The students are tougher. If Thais want a less fragile country, they need to send the army back to their barracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those they must love are not very lovable. The younger, better educated, more forward looking soldiers who take off their uniforms and talk about their, and their country's future, may think more like the students than their dinosaur bosses would like. I hope so, anyway. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
