Don’t see the UN doing anything about the biggest culprits, the US and Brits. Don’t see the UN doing anything about Guantanamo Bay or other detention camps, or extraordinary rendition! What a load of baloney! Why don’t they go after the true culprits? This is just another excuse for luxury dinners and get-togethers, and bla bla, anything to convince the public that the UN really cares and does something! Who elected the UN anyway? – No-one!

So the small countries should be left to torture in peace while the UN only pursues the big boys? Thats sensible! And consistent!

This attitude that if it isnt perfect it should be scrapped is not going to add up in the harsh light of day.

No, don’t twist my meaning. Go and fire your gun elsewhere! What I am saying is that nothing will be done as nothing has ever been done.

Didnt want to twist your meaning, only understand it. I still think we are better off with the UN than without it but I take your point about the US and UK getting off easy.

I'd like to see them all get a kick in the arse but I guess that aint gonna happen.

The big fish eats the little fish, as they say in Thailand!

Oh boy a thread on torture!

This is going to be painful!

Can't be anywhere near as torturous as having to sit through the dozens of posts a day from delusional red sheeple such as yourself...

I wonder if they are already clued in on what the Thais let the American's do here at the bases....?

And yes, as PM and Minister for 'defense', the useless lump Yingluck should take responsibility for what the forces have gotten up to under her watch.

Maybe more reasons to add to her impeachment will come out of this.

Why is the UN talking to a Thai government delegation? The Thai government has no say in the matter.

The allegations involve the Thai military and the Thai military does not answer to the Thai government.

The UN should be directing its questions at the supreme commander of the Thai military as he is the one in charge and the only one who can order his troops to cease and desist from torture if there is torture taking place.

What allegations are you rambling about? and don't the police factor in this whatsoever? Do you only read the headlines of each article before making a complete fool out of yourself every time you post.

The issue reached the tipping point with the allegations in respect to the Rohingya. The current prosecution of the Phuketwan journalists was icing on the cake. Yes, the police can end do engage in activities which are illegal. However, the longstanding allegations of the detention and torture of migrants at the border, and of trafficking in migrants/refugees are what has brought the matter forward.

The BKK Post article states the Thai National Human Rights Commission has received a number of allegations of torture & 71% of the complaints of torture were related to detention in the deep South by the Thai army. The lesser number of complaints received by NHRC & other organisations are in reference to abuses against refugees, illegal migrants and so on.

There is the larger volume of complaints, 382, of torture and abuse whilst in detention by the murdered Muslim lawyer's organisation 'Muslim Attorney Centre'

I wonder if they read the book by the Irish geyser spent 8 yrs in Bangkok Hilton he was tortured by the tourist police in BBK awsome book, Wellcom to the Bangkok Hilton.

The English is plain and simple, it says, “Don’t see the UN doing anything…..”. YOU should go back to school and learn English. As for you saying, “That why a load of rubbish is said on here…”, I agree – you have just added to the rubbish!
