Dear friends and family abroad, this is an Excerpt taking from NSNBC International reports about crisis in Thailand: Clearly the US’ interest in Thailand has nothing to do with defending “democracy.” Considering Thaksin Shinawatra’s abhorrent human rights abuses, unprecedented in Thailand’s long history, the US is not concerned about the treatment of the Thai people either. Their interest is purely financial and geopolitical. Their support is only further emboldening the regime, who may otherwise realize that their time is up and that they should bow out peacefully. Instead, they have elected a bloody campaign of terror against their political opponents, wounding and killing innocent people on a daily basis, while the West buries their atrocities within news stories and among cartoonish denials made by the regime’s police in direct contradiction of all evidence suggesting otherwise. The Thai people are left to ask themselves to whom they should turn to when the police themselves are obstructing justice and covering up a campaign of terrorism directed against peaceful protesters. With each attack bringing more military units into the streets – since the police are unwilling to do their job - it appears that answer may be Thailand’s respected army. The regime is left with the gamble of provoking the military to take action against it and subsequently depending on whatever backing the West has promised it. Considering the fate of the terrorist Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt and the crumbling US-backed terrorist front in Syria, that may be a gamble the Thaksin regime should seriously reconsider.
