norstatin Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 you are making a lot of statements in your post when all the actual evidence would indicate the opposite it would appear you are as clever a box filled with air - would you like me to explain or can you work it out for yourself What actual evidence?? How about you explain why martial law has yet to be rescinded and why political gatherings are still banned, why the media is so heavily censored, why elections have been canned and why the constitution was scrapped? From where I'm sitting, there all evidences in support of Boxclevers post. I will refer you to the first 6 months of this year and how innocent people were murdered shot and blown up in the streets of Bangkok and other places There have been several surveys done over the last 3 months all show that up to 80% of the Thai people are currently very happy with the situation, I would also refer to Thais that I have spoken too personally and I find the same thing The only people that seem to be unhappy are those that have been living beyond the bounds of the law and are slowly being reeled in - not unusual in any normal society There is more than a little bit of silliness in your post here mate. The most likely explanation for the majority of the deaths and injuries that occurred during the most recent overthrow of democracy in this land is... Yellow on Yellow. unmitigated balderdash AKA BS 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norstatin Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 She was PM then acting MP then an ordinary housewife shopping at a supermarket in awe that ready cooked rice meals could be bought. The billionairess was really tripped up by that glaring guffaw that reflected the distancing of herself from reality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robespiere Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Gaol the witch How little you know. They have no interest in jailing her, they just need to make sure she is barred from politics before the next election (if there is one). Why? Because she will absolutely crush them at the polls. What a bunch of cowards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Fat Haggis Posted October 12, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 12, 2014 Some people here like northern john and whybother seem to believe that dictatorship is good for the country. It goes along the lines with the poll when the locals were asked about corruption and sone of them answered "well if it works". I have asked it before and I will ask it again. Would you support such actions if you didn't agree with the ruling party back home? A dictatorship is better than civil war. If there were grenades going off and innocent people getting killed and the government wasn't doing anything about it, then maybe a coup would be a better solution. It would have nothing to do with whether I didn't agree with the ruling party or not. I don't support the junta. I just comment on reality. The junta have banned political events. Yingluck going to this event would have made it political. And the 10 year Civil war in the South doesn't count because it doesn't suit your politics ??? Grenades and IEDs going off there weekly killing and maiming more innocents in the South than what there was in Bangkok mate. Didn't see the Army step in to have the coup for the reasons of violence down there on the past 10 years or doesn't the South of Thailand matter to the people of Bangkok ? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickirs Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 <script type='text/javascript'>window.mod_pagespeed_start = Number(new Date());</script> Well this will be the interesting thing because they are trying to convince the democratic world that the reason this happened was because of the complete incompetence of the people holding office. This does not mean to say competent people could be appointed within this party. Changing the democratic process would simply clarify that the reasons given to the developed world for this action was a complete lie. Countries like the USA have a history of funding democracy and the people who fight for its values. If the world decides between them that enough is enough and this dictatorship is now deemed undemocratic you will see rivers of blood and civil war. The worlds democracies will begin with embargo's and tough talk, this will fuel a revolution as the people will believe the rest of the world are on their side. Then the silent majority will become activists. This military junta can never win this war because it has to suppress democracy to do so. This is why Taksin has ordered no resistance, he knows these people are in a no win situation. He knows the world will not trade with this country if the democratic process is changed, no trade leads to financial ruin. Unfortunately for the junta the only option they have is to sit down and make a deal with this party, they know this party will win a democratic election so if they want to have any kind of future for themselves and the establishment, agreements need to be made. The problem is they do not have this course of action in their armory. The country will find itself in civil war and if it gets to deep not even the king himself will have the power to stop it. Huge swathes of the army will also turn on each other. The future is very bleak indeed. "Huge swathes of the army will also turn on each other." Thus the need for the Junta's security agreement with China so that Chinese troops can aid the Junta to safeguard "national security." The Junta knows that the potential for civil war will be high when it does not allow a public referedum on the new constitution and is planning for all contingencies to protect its power.
