No doubt Prayuth will increase the army's budget to cover the financial loss. Perhaps he should be working for GoldmanOriginally Posted by Yasojack

George Orwell 1984 - Ministry of Love, worst of the worst for torture.. Now we have "Reconciliation Centers" run by the military in 'selected' provinces - now that's as scary as it gets..
This whole scenario was predicted though.. many times, by many people on this site
The Lord Junta gives (ice cream, hair cuts, free concert) and the Lord Junta takes away (Western media TV access, freedom of speech, freedom to congregate, freedom to be on the streets at night). That seems like a fair exchange to 12 year olds.Originally Posted by Yasojack
I realize the army like waving their big guns around in public and generally scaring the crap out of people, but I would like to know under what circumstances the Thai army would find it appropriate to open up with a light machine gun- or any automatic weapon- in a big crowded city. It's when they come out with weapons that I wonder what sort of opposition they might anticipate. Is it merely a boyish need to wave a big dick around or are they considering the possibility of resistance to the coup from, say, military units commanded by anti-coup forces?

I'm putting money with a friend that Army hidden hand lets off a couple of hand grenades Sunday - maybe even to hurt some conscripts to blame Reds.
Remember the objective - to show the requirement of Junta and the eventual assession
Yes, this is what I was intimating a few pages back.. There has been no public show of support from the other military branches or the police at press conferences, it does not seem convincing. Seems maybe they are sitting back possibly assessing the peoples response before taking sides and that would also account for the Army's strong handed approach to squelch an uprising before it happens so as not to involve the other branches and the police..Originally Posted by robuzo
What are the chances of an early re-coup?
Blue Chan-Ocha doesn't seem overly confident - looks more like testing just how far they can go before having to make real life-changing decisions. Perhaps tomorrow's activities will tell?
I noticed that it took four days before Blue Chan-Ocha claimed approval for their moves. No presence was evident at the ceremony & the document shown did not display a signature - oddly-enough. Smoke-&-mirrors perhaps?

Sure. The reds never do that.Originally Posted by Tom Sawyer
^ Foul! I think the events behind that picture has been explained in freely-available literature. It is not conclusively the work of 'reds' as you appear to claim. Some sources mention friendly fire, other mention third hand.
What is your point, Pickel? You seem to be incredibly anti-something.
Something doesn't quite feel right about what is going on. Flat-out stating no elections possible for a long time, making a lot of noise about wanting to be loved- bread and circuses! Sorry, ice cream and concerts!- and for the people to be happy again (sounds like a returning first-time tourist- "Oh, the Thais are such happy people!"), is not really from the traditional coup (18 coups sort of makes overthrowing the government part of Thailand's democratic tradition).

Gentleman lottery today, could the numbers be centrered around the happy coup?
Today's anti-coup resistance symbol. This might stick around...

My point is that there are posters on this board that refuse to accept the reality that both sides have weapons and are capable of violence. Those same posters will call me a PADite for reminding them of the truth, yet not understanding that I feel Suthep should have met the same fate as Seh Daeng.Originally Posted by Waid
