geriatrickid Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 What you failed to mention is that all of that was blessed and encouraged by the government of the USA. Be fair.

Patpending Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Some great insightful posts on the first page again. UDD has played a great hand in keeping quite. Suthep and media only calling them out as they want the reds in bangkok to give the army a pretext to come in. They showing that this week PT has weathered the Court and Media combined assault on democracy and reminding the Army of the big problems they WILL have if they Coup. PM looking stronger and as the media is at 100% propaganda level, she can only gain strength from it. Well done again. Courts are backfooted today and have a protest on their steps of people demanding the Courts reform first!! Bet they didn't intend for themselves and the Media to be caught up in this reform. Media will self reform as we will all stop reading the guff they right once this coup plot is put to bed. Nation might get a few sales from deluded expats at the low end beer bar level, but nothing else after insulting our intelligence like this. There will be more at this meeting than are left with Suthep... even on his big 1,000 man march on tuesday. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fab4 Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 the People's Democratic Reform Committee (PDRC), whom she said is defying law enforcement leading to deaths and injuries. The red shirts know all about that. Of course they do. They suffered over 80 deaths in 2010 due to abhisits version of law enforcement. So what's your point?

Popular Post Crushdepth Posted February 21, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 21, 2014 I wonder if Tida and the rest of the Communists intend to return to the jungle and start a Khmer Rouge type insurrection like they did before. Your statement is a simplistic attempt to raise the bogeyman of "commies". It is 2014, not 1950 and Senator Joe McCarthy the master of manipulation drank himself to death long ago. Professor Thavornseth was an accomplished microbiologist and had a career on the rise until she made the sacrifice to join the pro-democracy uprising in 1973. It was that uprising that ended the brutal military dictatorship that had ruled Thailand with an iron fist. Subsequent to the 1976 massacre of students at Thammasat University and the reinstallation of the military dictatorship, her name was put on a target list for execution by the death squads that were roaming Thailand at the time killing the opponents of the military dictatorship. Yes, she fled to the jungle and the only group to offer her protection and support were the communists. She had no other option. It was flee or end up raped and dead in a field. She hid out for 6 years enduring hardship and suffering, all because she believed in democracy. She was non violent and it has never ever been alleged that she engaged in any acts of violence. She is the one UDD leader who has remained firm in her belief in non violence. Some of them still are. You can frequently see it in their references to the success of various communist revolutions, particularly in interview pieces. Combine it with one of the worst aspects of unchecked capitalism Thailand has to offer and you have a very ugly alliance indeed. Whatever she was in the past she is now rates fairly high on the scary nutter scale. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billd766 Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Whilst they are all together why don't they start their OWN political party and stand in the next election. They all seem qualified and they obviously are willing to tell/explain to the whole of the Thai people what is truly wanted and needed in Thailand. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smileydude Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Tida should just come out of the red shirt closet and tell everyone what she's actually thinking. That she believes in socialism/communism, that books and intellectuals should be banned and that Thailand should be like North Korea and Cuba, where instead of 10% of the population being poor, everybody is equally poor and the only elites are the generalissimo's and communist party members (like herself). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Scamper Posted February 21, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 21, 2014 " Ms Tida asked UDD supporters to follow their leaders' speeches Sunday, starting at 8am until evening, in order to know their thinking. " Thida, Jatuporn, Nuttawut and company are all assembling a reunion for a party that no one wants to attend. The core of their supporters - the farmers, in the tens of thousands, left in their trucks days ago, spurned the UDD efforts to deter them along the way, and forged ahead. As has everyone else. Thida and her ever smaller circle of Thaksin followers, have been left dangling on the stage, addressing an audience that is no longer there, disenfranchised from their base, who have become inconveniently informed - and with the script having been thrust from their hands. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Davidhere Posted February 21, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 21, 2014 She is the one UDD leader who has remained firm in her belief in non violence. Extremely hollow words given that she's never condemned any of the violent deeds and words by any of the other red shirt leader nor made any effort to expunge them from the ranks of her supposed non-violent movement nor cooperated with the apprehension of other red shirt leaders who were fugitives for months and months. . 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever she was in the past she is now rates fairly high on the scary nutter scale. In late 2009, months before the red shirts descended on Bangkok, the offical monthly redshirt magazine ran a four page article on Lenin with big full-page photo of the man himself, which had all the communist blurb held up on a pillar as if it were sacred. I remember seeing it back then and getting that "sinking feeling." I don't think they are all communists at all, I don't think half of them understand what happens to everyone except the very highest members in communism. But some of the red-shirt leadership definitely have real communist leanings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The collective IQ of the gathering will shoot through the roof in double digits! And what was the subject of your doctoral dissertation? I find it odd that people who are uneducated and who probably have IQs that are themselves subject to ridicule, have the temerity to make derisive comments about people they are not in a position to judge.
