OzMick Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Hmmm, so if it rely was just an "isolated incident" and a "symbolic act", and definitely NOT terrorism in foment, they won't bother trying to extradite possible Iranian #3 from Malaysia. What would they charge him with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would they charge him with? He is correct it is a symbolic act, can't dispute that. The construction of bombs and detonating them in public places is symbolical of terrorism. His department of big words needs to do some research, the communty he is directing these statements to own the english language. Oh oh oh Minister I have a good one, say it was a symbolic that will confuse them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocN Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Of course it is no terrorist act. These days every tourist has some spare C4 in his backpack to throw at taxidrivers who refuse to take them somewhere. Sometimes, I wish..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spidermike007 Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 "At the moment, there is no evidence linking this incident to terrorism," Foreign Minister Surapong Tovichakchaikul said. This is simply the reply of a neophyte, who like all of the Yingluck appointments, is completely out of his element. It is as if he is trying to pretend to be qualified to be foreign minister, when in reality his qualifications may be fine for running a 7/11, or a shoe store. Now, he is dispensing his wisdom, and is there more than 5 people on the planet that impart any credibility to anything this gumshoe says?I am sure his statements about the zionist regime in Israel are going to do wonders for Isreali tourism in Thailand. Where did they find this guy? Why doesn't he go back to his village, and stop bringing shame to the foreign ministry? When is the last time Thailand has had a competent foreign minister? The level of desperation with which this government is trying to make us believe this is an isolated incident is amusing. Yes, I suppose many use hand grenades just for recreation?

unanimosity Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 woowww....a symbolic act!! i wouldn't want to be in bangkok if any of these terrorist decide to perform some more symbolic act to revenge their friends already in police custody. He is right, it is a symbolic act, but what he refrained from adding is that all acts of terrorism are symbolic acts from 9/11 on down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just1Voice Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 NOTE TO SELF: On next trip to BKK take C-4 and hand grenades to deal with pesky taxi drivers. SECOND NOTE TO SELF: On next trips to Pattaya and Phuket take M-16-A4 with at least 5 full clips to deal with tuk-tuk & jet ski mafia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

varun Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 The very essence of the AVERAGE Thai mentality - deny, deny, lie, lie, save face, avoid accountability (repeat ad infinitum) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
senna101 Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Just out of curiosity, has anyone observed that the taxi was bombed in front, and not at the back? When you try to hail a taxi, and if that fellow doesn't stop, which pisses you off, and you try to throw something (not necessarily an explosive device) at the taxi (which at this point has already passed you without stopping - a clear sign that he won't be stopping for you in the near future), wouldn't you hit it at the back? Maybe he was so infuriated and threw the bomb with Herculean strength, the bomb to overtook the taxi, landed in front of it and blew up. Or, perhaps he ran after the taxi, overtook it, and dropped the bomb in front of it? Both scenarios are highly unlikely, even with perfectly functioning feet. Or maybe he actually tried to stop the taxi by throwing a bomb in front of it, not knowing that would actually damage the taxi (and injure the driver). If this was the case, then that was technically a successful attempt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would they charge him with? Scratching the paintwork on a police-car, and waking up the BiBs inside, before the end of their shift ? Performing a "minor symbolic act" without a donation license ? Making the Foreign Minister & Deputy Prime Minister look like complete idiots ?

Steely Dan Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 RT @RichardBarrow: Thai DPM Chalerm: Yesterday's triple blast not terrorist, just a minor symbolic act /via @Juarawee #FacePalm "At the moment, there is no evidence linking this incident to terrorism," Foreign Minister Surapong Tovichakchaikul said. Mr. Charlerm and Mr. Surapong -- You are both clowns and deserve to be in a special circus, unlike the one you are involved in now. Provoking fear, attempted assassination, throwing grenades around the city, is Terrorism you twits!! Actually, Charlerm may well have learned his deny everything strategy by observing how western governments and media go out of their way not to mention the words terrorism, Islamic or Jihad when incidents occur in their own back yards,. this has got to ridiculous proportions but would be getting O/T to elaborate. I do wonder however how many Countries issued travel advisories for London after the 7/7 bombings. Not defending the Thai political b'shit, just pointing out they are not alone in this.
