According to Irrawaddy, Vice Senior General Soe Win said “The Move Forward Party is pro-West and they will assist terrorists … we have to watch the border and get information about them, their movements and their activities.

Popular Post Grossman Posted May 23, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted May 23, 2023 Hahaa, looks like someone shat their camo knickers seeing their besties lost in Thailand. Hopefully things work well for Pita & Co and we get a domino effect elsewhere too. Always a great source of joy to see these military manchild -types getting what they deserve. 18 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One could say Russia Ukraine is a proxy war, Russia is slowly going bankrupt so out of the power game. Only China to worry about now. And if USA keep ripping themselves apart it won't be under a decade to see China checkmate. 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be funny if it would not be so sad ... The murderous burmese junta tries to bend the truth . The terrorists is THEM . I don't know why the world is ( mostly )ignoring the fact that this country has been taken from a young democracy to a murderous autocracy that does not value the life of their citizens . And there are still countries who support them actively by providing weapons , like Russia and China ... Shame on them !

Shame on them ! You forgot Thailand under junta rule - they are probably the biggest supporter that the Burmese junta have. Who’d have thunk that supporting anti democracy juntas has real world death and destruction consequences. Shame on all those who have argued against democracy in Thailand - hiding behind that tiny tiny false fig leaf “Thaksin is the devil”. What you guys support is disgusting. 2 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look Gen Sour Win, Prayuth has tried to get rid of any opposition in the past, he followed your lead, to get them banned or jailed (and still is) but he wasn't quite into murdering the population as you are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
