Interested to know what you actually think.
The answer to those questions is absolutely clear in my mind.

The order for the R'song killers went through him, but he was just the "enabler' for those doing the "enabling".

He was no different in that regard than the military.

For that reason I have often said, one needs to downplay their role in it, to nothing more than "enablers for others".

The Post-WWII Nuremberg trials have a lot to say about what degree of culpability these 'enablers' are subject to.

I would love to have a no-holds barred discussion about who the unelected people forcing this thing are, (be it singular or plural). But as you know that is not possible. Even a partial discussion about that would be misleading, so no point in having any discussion at all.

That R'song thing can be extended to today as well.

The PTP/UDD/Red Shirt majority political sector of Thailand is convinced the same 'enabling powers' are using the Constitution Court and other judicial elements in the same manner, hence there absolutist position that we are in the middle of an unfolding Judicial Coup, designed to put electoral forces in their place.

Rank and file are being mobilized accordingly.

The outcome of this will go a long way to exposing the degree of Electoral Democracy that is rooted in Thailand, if any.
That's a lot of words used to not actually answer bobcock's straight-forward question.
