What is the notice they are reading on all thai tv stations? Anyone got a translation?

[RussellHantz]

There is really nothing to cheer about here.

Sadly its only going to trigger a wave of political assasinations - Abhisit, Suthep, Kasit, their family members, others responsible etc - will end up victims of a bomb / grenade / sniper attack.

News Flash Russell, they were ALREADY being targeted,

and Sea Daeng was considseredd as the leader of those doing that.

He got his own coming back.

My condolences to his daughter for her loss of a father,

but that's as far as it can go.

If they really wanted Abhisit dead, he would have been dead long ago.

After what happened tonight though, he will be a lucky man if he is still alive next month.

Amazing all the blood thirsty posters. Western socialists in their most 'caring & compassionate' mode.

Lt Gen Khattiya Sawasdipol has not been found guilty of any crime. If anyone has any evidence of his wrongdoing they should report it to the authorities. Until he is tried & found guilty he is an innocent man potentially murdered by a sniper.

He is registered army, though suspended, meaning no pay.

I am sure army knows what he was about,

and what he said he would do to them if they came to clear out the encampment.

He has declared a free Issan state publically.

He has made threats of violence that came true going on 3 years now.

He has been a clearlty and true renegade in the sense of the word;

A soldier who targets his fellow soldiers.

His bravado got the better of him today, he if anyone should have expected

he would be 'taken out' early in this battle if posssible.

If he dies, it is from his own zealotry and or stupidity.

What morons you are here? It's not funny when somebody gets shot, especially in this fragile environment.

And apparently most of you overlook the risk involved if he should really pass away.

its a pity he is not conscious

i would ask the doctors for 5 minutes with him and give him the option to tell all about the Red movement and implicate Thaksin or move along to the gates of hel_l

I am reallyimpressed by how brave you are, threatening to kill a wounded man in a hospital bed. Is your next target the first grad at the neighborhood school? You seem like a really tough guy in the dark.

[RickBradford]

I think the Reds should bust Seh Daeng out of hospital and take him back to the camp to recover among his friends.

[evanson]

Channel News Asia just reported he'd been shot in THE CHEST and was seriously injured. Does it matter in which part of his anatomy rendered him 'seriously injured?' Probably not. But I do think reporting on this issue can't be that bloody difficult?

Think Taksin'll turn up with some gapes?

A Red Shirt apologist, according to the BS spouted by the Red propoganda machine - with BS that bears no similarity to reality!- must be the definition of a socialist. .... Seems that's you!

The psycho Sawasdipol whackjob was (past tense .... hopefully!) as close to being "an innocent man" as Thaksin was (past tense .... hopefully!) to being a bastion of humanity!!

agord

hey man nice shot. and could have very well been the CIA or 'other' outside group or could have been the good work of the Thai military? point is that someone got it right and maybe some of the departed now have justice? Let's hope it's the last death tonight (if he is in fact dead) and the rest of the leaders will finally see thier madness has to stop!

Agreed the thug lived by the sword and died by the sword. He boasted about how many people he killed so perhaps it was Karma.

Interesting to note the rhetoric from the rabid red shirt supporters on here is it not ?

As Sir Winston Churchill said.

''If you can't stand the heat in the kitchen get out.''

Jutaporn, Arisman and Veera would indeed welcome all you keyboard and armchair warriors at the protest site, you too could be in the front line for only 500 baht a day.

[mazeltov]

Thai Tv is saying Seh Daeng is dead

Bush never got Bin Laden in seven years, so you have to finally give Abhisit some credit.

Of course, the Falang Mosley Mob is full of love for their Abhisit. A dictator and murderer.

Defending a terrorist. What a peach you are.

Please refrain from mis-statements about what I said. That is deceptive and dishonest. I stated that civilized people respect human life.

If you prefer killing people that's your problem.

In which case you are saying that Seh Daeng was not civilized since he was inordinately proud of personally having killed 20 "communists".

[Netfan]

Your are a little pissant keyboard warriors full of hate.

And the Reds have lost. Not only lost, but LOST. Now they have to go home with nothing. Loss of respect for invading the hospital, no early election, Abhisit is still PM, parliament still in session, Thaksin still on the run with a whole lot of money down the drain. No wonder you are a bit testy this evening Chin up though- theres always the elections in, when, oh, 2012?

[WinnieTheKhwai]

So predictable.. The same people who were always going on about extra-judicial killings are now applauding cold blooded murder!

What a nice forum.

[lazurus]

sounds like reds are storming another hospital to get to seh daeng

[jcbangkok]

Is it my connection or does ThaiVisa seem to be running at a crawl right now?

a life lost even from your enemy is always a sad news.Sae Deng is a warrior, trained to kill, and as often for this kind of men "drugged by war" and as already said "living by the sword, dying by the sword". But a life is a life.

However, the day is not finished, we may have some surprises. So I suggest to stay calm.

Personally, I am not happy when I see somebody leaving this earth and I wish casualties to be a minimum but also, knowing Thai people, their stubborness, their revenge mind, I wish that we are not entering in Civil War. This night is going to be very long.

I expect Good Will will prevails and that we will find the Peace.

He's a soldier, but a model warrior, those were just his own words in his countless self praise during interviews. How appropriate them took him out when he was honkin' his own horn again.

Seh Daeng hooked up to respirator, still unconscious and in critical condition; doctor confirmed he was hit by high-velocity object 1 minute ago via web

[Herm]

reds are saying that the shooting is just a rumor spread by the government

I think the word stupid doesn't cut it in their case .. a new word needs to be invented

absolutely agree !

lost of life is nothing to be cheer, either he is a good guy, a bad guy, or an innocent.

hope everyone could learn from this explicit alert, and calm down !

[frodo]

The Nation: Red shirts @ Rajprasong say Seh Deang was shot is just a rumor.

Misinformation machine strikes again. Are any of the leaders capable of speaking the truth just once?

Tallforeigners picture are well chosen propaganda pictures of peaceful red shirts, old people, monks and whats make me so sad, small children, who have no choice of their own to be in the red fort. This is the people the red leaders and Dear Leader wants to fight to the death, because of the selfish aim of the leaders. I say shame, shame, shame, one thousand times shame on you!!!!

Why not baa SHAME ON YOU ONE THOUSEND TIMES on the people who support a violent crackdown by a army ready do shot at protesters?

That the reds are terrorists is the propaganda here.

SHAME ON YOU!!!

It's the same as you do in PALASTINA

What do i do in PALASTINA?

anti-red posters at this board becoming more and more detached from common sense and reality. their hate makes them crazy.

must be due to so much contact with redneck posters....

[warfie]

just posted in another closed thread: "CRES Declares Emergency Decree in 15 Additional Provinces"

anyone know which provinces?

what effect will it have?

will helmet laws be enforced?

Nah, but you know what, don't dare be a farang and drop a cigarette butt on the floor.

in fact, if you see a cigarette butt on the ground, don't go anywhere near it, you might get accused even if you don't smoke!

OMG, The International Outrage!!!! LMAO

Red Shirt leader shot as unrest continues in Thai capital

CNN

Bangkok, Thailand (CNN) -- A leader of anti-government protests in Thailand was shot in the head while being interviewed at the demonstrations, according to the journalist who was with him at the time.

Seh Daeng was in critical condition, according to his guards with the Red Shirt protesters.

Tom Fuller of the International Herald Tribune told CNN he was interviewing Seh at the time of the shooting.

Witnesses said the gunshot appeared to come from a rooftop in a corner of Bangkok's Lumpini Park, where protesters have amassed.

While it was unknown whether Thailand's military or government was behind the shooting, the government has previously made it clear it would shoot at what it called armed terrorists.

A renegade Thai general, Seh, whose full name is Maj. Gen. Kattiya Sawasdipol, is one of the Red Shirts' most radical, hard-line leaders, said CNN's Dan Rivers.

Other, more moderate leaders of the organization, who had insisted the protests were peaceful, had sought to distance themselves from him.

I stated that civilized people respect human life.

If you prefer killing people that's your problem.

I am with you on this. Some people think this is a video game where kills aren't real. It shows their immaturity.

If the death of one criminal save the lives of innocent hundreds, i would allow that criminal to die.

And i say hundreds because of all the workers laid off, paid less, etc-how do we know what that money means to them, it could mean the difference between having a meal on the table and having to go hungry-I only respect the lives of people who works towards saving lives and not destroying them.
