    The target isn't Thailand yet they still are heavily watching possible targets, and police presence has been increased in the suspected target areas.

    With the possible 140+ tons that 10 shipping containers could hold, where are the rest of the materials, and who sold all this to him? There has to be a paper trail with purchases that big.

    What is being told, and what is actually happening don't match. This is just like the flood details, it all doesn't add up. How many people are going to die because of this? Almost 1000 died from the misinformation given out during the flood.

    "The police chief said the US terrorist travel warning to its citizens for Thailand remains in force, but he believed the US would lift it soon because the terrorist group's target is not Thailand."

    If you believe that, there is a bridge in Brooklyn I can sell you.

    And why are we supposed to believe the target wasn't Thailand? Because the police or the government say so? Please keep the warning posted, US Embassy, and thanks for putting our safety before "face."
