This will escalate unless the Thais get there house in order, and I am also sure that the Cambodians or Khmer are not gonna back down any time soon.
As for the jingoistic claptrap coming out of Bangkok, this is smoke and mirrors to cover up the in house government fighting against PAD.

They seem to be especially adept at taking over their own government whenever the mood inspires them though..

Of course they have yet to be opposed in that endeavour maybe that should be considered before capitulating so easily the next time, maybe a well placed rotten egg or some som tam might just be a legitimate weapon of resistance..

I think UDD must be reading TD, just after I posted this they went and decided to announce they were going to stand up to the military this time with molotov cocktails, i was just joking really I was!!
