Whenever there is a Coup no matter what country, the United States has a standard response and a standard set of protocols. Those protocols do not have the ability to distinguish a Coup for the benefit of military Generals, or a Coup for the benefit of the people by removing a hugely corrupt Government that has been hurting the country.

Layers of laws to stop Thaksin Part 2
After Thaksin and his supporters got a good taste of the new laws designed to stop them from being corrupt and self serving, they made the decision people who are not willing to change make. That decision was to do their best to remove or get around the laws that are in their way. The thought of complying with the law obviously never entered their mind. Continue reading Post ID 15040

Thai Junta doing Government’s neglected duties
Thailand’s ousted Pro-Thaksin Government grossly neglected it’s duties to the country by putting Thaksin first. So when the Junta quickly set about doing those neglected tasks and started correcting the self serving imbalance, the negative word ‘Junta’ is suddenly not looking so negative to many Thais.

Thaksin still has not learned the word ‘NO’
Despite Thaksin’s influence being removed twice with two separate Coups in Thailand, Thaksin still has not grasped the concept of the word ‘NO’, we won’t let you be a dictator. So with word of Thaksin looking to set up a Government in exile getting ready to give it yet another try, it is clear beyond any level of common sense that only a psychopath would not have learned to give up this quest.

The pro-Thaksin Thai Government is nearing checkmate as it struggles to survive. They have taken some serious political blows as a result of their Thaksin serving behavior. But now it all seems to come down to answering one question. If the answer is ‘YES’ the game goes on. If the answer is ‘NO’, then it is checkmate and this particular game is over.

Thailand’s CAPO becoming part of the problem
In what is becoming a joke of an emergency management body, the Center of Administration for Peace and Order (CAPO) has clearly become an attack tool of a Government that has lost it’s legitimacy to govern Thailand. The list of eye rolling announcements from CAPO has removed nearly all the respect it had when it was first formed. Coupled with ego driven temper tantrums from CAPO upper management, it clearly calls for a bag of popcorn to watch the antics unfold. Continue reading Post ID 15040

Unbalanced stand-off with Thaksin Shinawatra
As Thailand’s political unrest continues, the financial pain continues to grow as Thailand’s economy moves from the plus to the minus column. This unfortunately plays into Thaksin’s hands as shortly after the 2006 coup, Thaksin announced he would squeeze Thailand into submissiveness by using this exact same method. Continue reading Post ID 15040

Law breaking Red Shirts supporting law breaking Government
When you read in the news about the pro-Thaksin Red Shirts citing justice as a ‘Judicial Coup’, it does cause you to think about the level of mentality the Red Shirts actually have. No politician is above the law and if the law is broken they must pay the price, but the Red Shirts would have you believe otherwise. Continue reading Post ID 15040

Threats continue from Thai Government
In an increasingly ominous tone coupled with a show of force by the Red Shirts, there is little doubt arrogance is the driving force behind this behavior.

Thaksin’s proxy Government stoops to bully tactics
Backed into a corner by their own actions, the Pheu Thai Party (PTP) is spewing threats at those who would enact judgment and penalties on them.

Thaksin pushing for civil war to bypass laws
The distorted rhetoric coming from Thaksin’s Red Shirts is becoming troublesome as there is a consistent push towards civil war. All the pieces of play are coming into place including threats from the Pheu Thai Party (PTP) that there will be unrest if the wheels of justice are allowed to turn. Collectively this all fits the thinking of a man obsessed and who will stop at nothing to meet his goals. Continue reading Post ID 15040

Pheu Thai Party starts blame game
When someone gives you advise and you don’t take it, and an ‘I told you so’ situation is created, blaming the person who gave you the advise is totally absurd. But apparently the Pheu Thai Party (PTP) does not see it that way, and they look to place the full blame for failure on the very people that advised against proceeding. Continue reading Post ID 15040
