Small arms cache found near Bangkok

[Artisi]

no reports of red-t-shirts or UDD bumper stickers being found on the site?

I'm shocked.

Or ID cards carelessly left behind.

Saraburi is largely a Military town; with many military families there. Would it be plausable that this setup and stash was planted by soldiers who would later report the equipment as "lost" (if at all); and that this was a drop for a pick up at a later time? This would explain the setup; the way in which it is packaged and placed makes one think that it was experienced hands that prepared and placed this.

Perhaps the fingerprints should be screened against military staff as well. We all know there are elements within the military that were not necessarily happy of the "take down" of the previous "caretaker government".

Utterly correct, or as the HRW wrote in the "descend into chaos" report

"A much smaller group, the Black Shirts, were described to Human Rights Watch by journalist Oliver Sarbil: “…their job was to protect the Red Shirt protestor, but their real job was to terrorize soldiers… these guys were fearless. They operated mostly at night, but sometimes during the day. They went out in small teams [to confront the Army]…”They weren’t really ‘black-shirts’ – they were sometimes in green military uniforms and others dressed like Red Shirt protestors. They…weren’t interested in dealing with the Red Shirt leaders…The guys I met knew how to move and shoot. They also had experience handling explosives…The Black Shirts didn’t come to try and take territory – they shoot and then they leave, they hit [the soldiers] and retreat.” "

Kind of the exact opposite then of what the Black shirts who were recently apprehended have been saying then , as in they had limited weapons training.

That is presuming the arrested men and those Oliver Sarbil talks about are the same people.
