samjaidee Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Why would they have returned to the deep south when the police have already advised us that the bombings were not connected with the insurgency in Southern Thailand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sujoop Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Neither insurgents in the South nor any group made claims on the these attacks (very oddly, nor did the Uighurs group claim the Erawan Shrine attack). Meanwhile, police have proven time and time again they don't really want to investigate properly, seemingly more inclined to find scapegoats and protect persons of influence (ala Koh Tao murder investigation).Thus, this is likely never to be solved, just like so many other attacks since NY Eve 2006 BKK bombs to present day. Yet many absolutely pin this on 'Southern insurgents' (despite suspicion someone hired Southern elements and used Malaysian phones to further cover-up). Also, the Erawan bomb case looks like yet another complete cover-up job. Meanwhile, the car/ambulance bomb last night in Pattani sets a dangerous precedent and a worrying escalation from the norm in the deep South where implanted devices on Motorcycles was the norm. This is all very worrying because 'if' there is indeed a different mastermind (than Southern groups) behind the 'Mothers day' Hua Hin/Phuket etc (+Samui?) bombs, they can now escalate to using similar car bombs in other locations and with impunity as most would 'simply' pin the blame on Southern insurgents. With the precedent now set and with someone appearing angry at the referendum, also bent on destroying tourism /the economy and destabilising Thailand in advance of a difficult transition period., one greatly worries escalated and larger scale attacks are ahead.

They have had the ways and means for ages to use car bombs , they were taught very well , by Indonesian terrorist groups, the same that twice blew up Bali , nearly 2 decades back.

Redline Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 I'm not sure they would be that stupid. They don't look like bombers (if there is a look). Everyone knows there are cameras everywhere, and just because they changed clothes, (maybe they bought new clothes) doesn't make them bombers. If they are poor, and only changed into new clothes they just bought, an unlucky day for them because they may be tagged regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stargeezr Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 I do hope that these guys eventually get caught and spend time in a jail. It is a shame that so much of the world has bombings and people getting killed by the cowards who build and blow up these bombs. Shameful Geezer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
