thai gov gives the order

[billy]

Nevertheless, the government should take heed. There was already some support for a revolution coming from the army (remember the popular General that got shot in the head?) and the people are very unhappy.

I see your point bill, and I would say that neither side is right. They should be trying to solve this peacefully, not dismember the whole country.

it seems that things are getting back to normal although a curfew is in place.
i think they should have use a heavier hand in the beginning.
if they had it may not have come to the killing stage it's now at. hopefully they'll gain something from whats happened and utilize it the next time.
which i'm sure won't be far away.


what i find reprehensible is the fact the torched their own economy. destroying the 2nd largest mall in asia. what did that actually achieve, how many of their own people did they put out of work?

as for the general;
he wasn't so popular that he couldn't be shot by the very armed forces he was popular with, which i find ironic.
