Thai Govt Needs To Learn From This Terrorism Case

Spot-on!

Furthermore, Thailand is a free country and these embassies aren't showing Thailand the respect she deserves. They didn't discuss this matter with the Thai government before issuing their warnings. That's just rude.

Thailand should not have to deal with the repercussions of the United State's horrible foreign policies. If, however, potential repercussions are evident, the US should share its information.

Why would they discuss it with the Thai government? The Thai government would just tell them not to say anything, it's all under control, we have the suspect in custody, there's no threat. Just the same lies as they've been telling everyone else.

For all any of us know it probably was discussed with the Thai government by the US. Anyone who says it definately was not is only speculating.

But they didnt discuss it openly in the media - there was no 'play-by-play' account of the investigation therefore the authorities were incompetent. And more worrying they didnt consult TV posters who are amongst the most informed in the world and who have many contacts in the intelligence community.

Gers, what an excellent reply! Made my afternoon, cheers mate

Maybe I'm starting to believe the conspiracy theories...

Why was the guy who was arrested allowed to wear a balaclava in front of the cameras?

Is this a genuine arrest, or just a 'show' to try and get tourists to ignore the warnings (treat it as a problem that's already sorted)?
