The government can take care of people's security and they need not be concerned about the terrorist warning issued by several foreign countries, Deputy Prime Minister in charge of security affairs Kowit Wattana said Monday.

He said the Special Branch Police, international police and the Royal Thai Police have been working together following the arrest of a Swedish-Lebanese man with suspected links to the Hezbollah militant group at Suvarnabhumi airport on Friday evening.

Yes a warehouse full of bomb making chemicals. 3 beds, 1 caught all others have left Thailand.
How do they know they have left Thailand?
All this is linked to the iran nuclear program.This is what the American and isreals are saying.
What has Thailand to do with that? Maybe these chemicals are for export only?
Maybe they were here just to buy the chemicals? Buying these chemicals in other countries is nt easy at all not like here. Also not as easy to export as they are here. Hezbollah is the party of god thats what it means and was formed as a resistant group when isreal invaded Lebonan in 1982.America has always backed isreal.
If there was a real terrorist here then its not over as 2 people are still here. or were they ever here? How much chemical was bought by them? how do they know all the chemicals are accounted for?

Will the Thai Government come around and admit that there was a bomb threat? Will they admit that they reason there are no photos of Atris Hussein is that he ratter out Hezbollah in return for his freedom (deportation). Will this guy, Yingluck, Chalerm, and the Army Generals get together to get their stories straight? Will there be an apology issued to the US Ambassador for posting her bomb threat waring that scared off precious tourists? Will we ever get the truth?

No terrorist activity? What about that warehouse full of chemicals? These guys need to think before they talk.

Are we seriously expected to put our faith and trust in a police force that refused to act to prevent the violence in Bangkok in 2010?

Another glory hunter comes out the woodwork who knows nothing about the situation but needs to see his name in the papers.

Will Jatuporn be the next to advise us about this?

"No terrorist attacks have been reported yet," he said.

This is for sure one of those bad translations from Thai to English again .... Thai will always answer a question and put "yang" at the end in Thai if something did not happen and that means "yet" ... unfortunately not yet in english means something rather different .. ;-)
