Although Thais haven’t really stood up recently against their democracy being robbed from them…

the Thais have never have had a true democracy.  just coup after coup and before that hundreds of years of an absolute monarchy, which seemed to have worked more or less.  to question authority is not part of the Eastern culture

Imagine sending 70 year old’s to fight , damn ????

actually, the article said it was from Business insider and that Russian 30 year olds that had finished their mil conscript duty could be called back up and that officers up to age 70 could be called up....easy to google any question and find where it is being reported from

If it is so easy, please show a quote from the article that says that 70-year olds are being drafted/conscripted.

 

I have read what you're referring to and it is not the draft/conscription!
