Thaksin Apologises for Tak Bai Tragedy, Downplays Narathiwat Car Bombing
I have always been curious as to who gave the go ahead to use extreme force, the Minister of Defense, General Chettha Thanajaro, General Prawit Wongsuwan Commander-in-Chief of the Royal Thai Army, a local commander or civilian PM Thaksin Shinawatra. While Thaksin takes ultimate responsibility, a senior military figure must have informed forces on the ground to be ruthless. If you remember the famous red drum incidents in late 1972, it was the military. -

Tips for first time tourists, especially western teenage girls
I know real life. I lived it and am living it. I was that nineteen year old boy who met loads of trusting girls. They had a great time and lots of wonderful memories and we are still friends. Whereas you are just posting from fear of things that you have read about and are assuming. Any girls associated with your way of thinking would have a lonely and boring life. How sad. -

Zelinsky: The End Is Near
Certainly the BBC broadcasts footage regularly. You can look it up on IPlayer. There is no more nor no less compared to other conflicts from the last 40 years. What the correspondant has forgotten is that mostly he has watches soldiers from his army in conflicts where the opposition, except through small arms, and iEDs, can't fight back. British and American veterans fighting in Ukraine have remarked its the first time they have come under tank and artillery fire. You'd have to go back to Korea (maybe a bit in the Falklands) for the last time troops from the Western countries have been in such a situation. I don't believe in a term called "mainstream media". Its just a subjective term. Remember, 60 years ago, the so-csalled mainstream media was the print newpapers and radio. Television was new, and providing a different perspective to carefully filtered and delayed dispatches. 20 years ago, the Internet was brand new. 10-15 years ago, there was an explosion of footage uploaded by British and American squaddies, who had cheap Chinese sports cameras. That has been picked up by the 5th Estate, such as the BBC's "Our War" series, which inspired a series of historical dramatizatons of WW1 done in a similar style. But the wars the British and Amercans have fought in are very different. Troops would go to fight with full air cover and Burger King back at the base. Medical care was such that troops were even getting cancer treatment in theatre (look up the NSN numbers for delivery of cytotoxic drugs). So soldiers were able to do their own 21st century very of holiday snaps. I didn't see that much from WW2 of soldiers walking around with Brownie cameras, Ukraine is total war. For the most part, soldiers don't have time to do the edits and uploading for entertainment their day's work. Its a rude awakening for some who like to glop off nightly on war porn. I known the correspondant has an ulterior motive, and to an extent, their question is dishonest, and suggesting something that doesn't actually exist. -
