May I ask you, Sriracha John, with all due respect:

Are you inhabitant of the Sriracha Zoo?

Sriracha doesn't have a zoo, but why do you ask?

www.tigerzoo.com

Welcome to Sriracha tigerzoo.

If you ever visited the place, you should know that it has other inhabitants beyond tigers...

oh... I know the place you mean now...

You're talking about the Sriracha Tiger Parts/Bile Production Center, In-Breeding Farm, Tiger Death Pit & Freak Show Company, Ltd.

.... it's not a zoo. They just call themselves that because it's a shorter title than the real business they run.

Not sure what these tigers have to do with Thaksin.... other than their dental similarities... but ok.

A true classic.

Anyhow, if Toxin gets a passport can we all get some too? I mean, sounds like a snack tray item to me.

In 5 years thousands died under Thaksin's rule, not only the drug silence killings, but also a lot of 'disappearances' that are not legally considered killings.

Since the coup nothing to that extent has occurred, sure there's still some rogue officers but no state policy of murder.

General Saprang's mouth tends to run away with him, it could cost him the top job in September, but generally, excuse the pun, the coup leaders have been up to now, somewhat mild.

Family lawyer: Thaksin is not seeking UK asylum

BANGKOK -- A lawyer of Thaksin Shinawatra denied that the ousted former Thailand prime minister has sought political asylum in England after the Constitution Tribunal ordered dissolution of the Thai Rak Thai party and banned him and 110 other executive members from politics.

Noppadon Pattama, Thaksin's legal aide and family lawyer, was quoted by Tuesday's Bangkok Post as saying that Thaksin did not mention such a move when he spoke to him on the phone on Monday night.

He insisted Thaksin will return to Thailand to fight corruption charges if the court tells him so. He also confirmed that Thaksin has quit politics.

"He has announced he will quit politics," said Noppadon.

The exiled former premier has given several interviews to foreign media after the verdict was handed down last Wednesday. However, Noppadon said Thaksin decided to temporarily stop giving interviews to both Thai and foreign media as he does not want to be accused of engaging in political movement after the verdict.

Lost passport? Changed citizenship......

When does the plastic surgery to conceal his appearance occur?

The last attempt went quite wrong when the surgeon mistakenly reviewed his Kim Jom Il notes before the surgery.

Family lawyer: Thaksin is not seeking UK asylum

Thaksin uses London as base, other side of world from Thailand. London is traditionally used as a base for plotting overthrow of foreign governments and the hosting of numerous terrorists by its intelligence service

Terrorism has mounted in Thailand with numerous bombs exploding in public locations, since Thaksin was ousted. Thaksin was in control of an elite intelligence group within the military that was caught with moving bombs last year, at the time he claimed that the plot was aimed at himself

Well lets pick this apart.

"He has announced he will quit politics," said Noppadon.

Future tense.

The exiled former premier has given several interviews to foreign media after the verdict was handed down last Wednesday. However, Noppadon said Thaksin decided to temporarily stop giving interviews to both Thai and foreign media as he does not want to be accused of engaging in political movement after the verdict.

Very typical for Thaksin to re-posture when things don’t go his way.

I thought that thread was closed? Actually just another whack at the Junta.
