Foreign affairs?

Foreign affairs?

I suppose that given that he PTP are relocating to the North, Bangkok is now classed as foreign soil, or is that Surapong is just Thaksins gimp, and wanted to e in the news?

Will it get the same full investigation as all the other shootings and bombings that so far have shown no results ?

<deleted> does that even mean? They just condemned attacks on PROTESTERS. How can they be Thaksin's gimp?

It's just Pheu Thai displaying multiple personality disorder.

Yingluck is so sorry she feels like crying, honest.

Chalerm just wants to bash some heads.

Somchai wants to talk about it.

Paradorn wants everyone to believe that it's the PDRC attacking itself.

Surapong wants to wash his hands of any responsibility.

And Thaksin just wants to keep on tugging the strings.

"The government would launch a full investigation into the brutal acts"

Great and I look forward to updates on a regular bases unless of course it will be the usual fan fair now and then eventually it dies down and is forgotten in 2 weeks.

So this gets a full investigation. What do the 17 (18 dead now. RIP young child) and the 716 injured get? I half investigation. No investigation.

Principle of democracy - Equal protection under the law.

Red shirt wounded. Suspects identified 2 days later.

PDRC wounded and killed. No suspects identified.

Good point , as I have stated many times before , ministers talking outside of their portfolio's, and most don't have clue what they are saying. Well to be honest not one knows what they are talking about.

Wouldn't it be nice if both sides condemned those on their side who celebrated death and injury amongst their opponents ?

He does a nice line in fake sincerity. It seems to be a family tradition.

Surapong really makes me sick. No crime against PRDC had been investigated, ever. And no crime against PRDC will ever be investigated.

His Red team was celebrating the murder of innocent people last week.

Right... It seems that anyone living south of Chaingmai is now a foreigner,

Thaksin's cousin releases statement on attacks on Thaksin's opponents

Correct. All these bombings serve Thaksin very well. More bombings=less people joining the protests. Therefor NOBODY will be caught. And they are surely not going to "catch" their own people.

"Cousin, I think sending a message out into the world would be a smart thing to do at this stage. Make those blind people think we really care "

4 days to relaese a statement wow.......

Typical myopic hypocrisy as they also represent the administration which is at the center of the reason for this conflict.

Me thinks they protest too much.

Err, so are you suggesting that Thaksin condones the attacks? That Surapong didn't deliver a passport by hand to his master?

You need to read a little bit more.

It would possibly tie in with The DL's evil empire building plans

The "foreign minister" is condemning domestic terrorism.
