Cnxforever Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 They not say anything about the weapons found in Khon Kaen from red shirts to be used in terrorist attack in Khon Kaen? The weapons found at Aksa road at the Red shirt rall y ? And the US and other countries will support this and recognize this government in exile .?I thought Thailand had already 2 years a government in exile in Dubai nothing news this For your information If opposition attacks a junta which has taken over a country illegally with force you are not a terrorist but are considered a freedom fighter! Karma is a bitch violence always invites more violence! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diplomatico Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Ah, yes. Couple of countries on the African continent too, methinks. If only - I very much doubt he will be willing to leave the current safe haven of Dubai - Africa has too many willing to do stuff for very little What I meant - and did not communicate sufficiently - was that there have been governments in exile that have taken over in countries on the African continent. Not that TS would relocate to Africa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chooka Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Government in exile is a fantasy. Even so, I don't think I'd want my lawyer spouting off about it while I'm in custody of the military. He made this statement last Thursday whilst be interviewed by Australian media, (ABC) his interviewed was beamed live into Thailand via the Australian network. The Thai Military have no power to stop the Australian government T.V station from broadcasting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Seastallion Posted May 25, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 25, 2014 So much for his ' I've quit politics' mantra. Note to self: never believe the man. It would be irresponsible of him to allow this current dictatorship to continue their human rights violations unchallenged. He is far from perfect to be sure, but when given the choice between a quasi-corrupt politician and a violent military dictatorship, I'd pick the imperfect politician every time. Quasi; seemingly but not. There is nothing quasi about his corruptness. What violence? Do you mean the bloodless capturing of weapons caches and the terrorists hoarding them? The utter spin of the red supporters is alarming in it's transparency. I guess it reflects the intellect of the entire movement. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelscottfan Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 This story has it all....... re: -Thaksin's intent to fight to the death, the Red's and his private army deaths, not him of course. -Thaksin's growing madness. -Slime Robert Amsterdam who earns money from Thaksin and other petty dictators and tyrants world wide, is the same man who Post quoted as saying the monarchy has to go, and in front of the Red Shirts camp a few days ago. Note that no reports of Reds condemning Amsterdam's comments, signaling Reds real intentions. -America and its tv networks want their puppet Thaksin. Take names of the networks. -American govt and biz interests want puppet Thaksin. -Foreign news formerly dismissed as too few the thousands of protesters with whistles, but now credits a hundred as representative of anti coup feelings. Robert slime "lawyer" to Thaksin says: Lets see, where to set up a govt in exile? Gosh, maybe Somalia, uh maybe Nigeria with Mr. Goodluck, let me "think," where can Thaksin buy a spot.... oh oh, this is not as easy as it looks.......North Korea, nah too cold for him..... uh uh, let me get back to you on this." Way way too much tolerated of Thaksin's madness. My reality tv show script is in development as per this msg. Please do not say America and Americans want the puppet Thaksin. It's the corporate globalists stationed there. Wishes in America for a coup there to save them from these kind of enforcing globalists are getting louder by the minute. I can assure you that America has no interest in supporting your idiotic plutocratic , militaristic paradise chump. Our government has placed sanctions against Thailand for a reason, and us Americans support it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thailand is a VERY self sufficient nation.

The US needs Thailand more than Thailand needs the US. Thailand could ride out sanctions for years pal. They don't export billions of gallons of oil or anything really that a country gets massive wealth from. Rice?...... Plenty of countries will still buy it. Thailand does NOT depend on the west as much as you have deluded yourself to believe. Finally..... The army have only just started digging through the dirt, and I would assume in a month or so, they will have so much evidence of corruption and state sponsored terrorism on the lot of them, they will probably all find themselves in the international criminal court. It won't be too long before the army can prove they have done the right thing to the world, and if Laos or Cambodia want to play host to them, then they ought to watch their own backs. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was before Yingluck was put into "protective custody". Puts paid to theories that Thaksin was reacting to her detention or playing a pawn designed to keep Yingluck held for longer to arouse anger.

Popular Post Kasset Tak Posted May 25, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 25, 2014 This government will have more legitimacy than the military junta, hated, not endorsed, even the senate speaker thrown away as as body to appoint an interim PM. This government will be a focus point for the opposition in the country, organising funds, equipment, printing publications, running radio and tv stations. There would be also emmigrants from thailand fleeing repressions, and hordes of international journalists not being able to work directly in thailand due to stiffening media laws. And what if they are endorsed after a while? And what if the second one endorses them? Governments on exile are known from ww2, de gaulle, czekoslavakian, polish and other governments in london Yes there where exile governments during WW2... the difference is that those governments were in power when Germany invaded their countries at least that is the truth for: Norway, France and Poland. And in those cases there was one country invading another country, like when China occupied Tibet... Dalai Lama is still basically running the government in exile sins 1951, that is 63 years and there is no solution and still people dying there trying to fight the Chinese government. Is that what you want for Thailand? YL have been removed from her PM status by the courts and Thaksin is a fugitive from the Thai courts so they should not have any legitimacy to form a government in exile! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much of what you wrote is true....though confining your argument to only the US weakens it a bit, I think. If the international community at large comes down on Thailand, it will be much more difficult to sustain. Few countries, in this interconnected world, are truly disassociated from the international community as a whole. Somalia, Iran, N Korea - are these models to emulate? One thinks not. Strong international opinion does matter - whether that is the case here remains to be seen but it shouldn't be dismissed so lightly, IMO. Great discussion, btw.
