The increase of attacks was a Ramamdan thing that the terrors said they would increase not because of YS

Khun Somchai #17, haven't "Maw's power" led political party in various reincarnations been receiving either the most votes, or an overwhelming majority votes outright, like the current PTP is currently enjoying? As a result, I can't think of anything more democratic than this. So, it seems to me that the problem is not Democracy itself, but what we want our Democracy to stand for. Should we want it to stand for Life, Liberty, Pursuit of Happiness, and Equal Justice for All, or "anything goes" like what has been happening since the beginning of our supposedly democratic rule in 1932?

The violence has spiraled out of control since the fugitive returned to power. There will be no peace until the Puea Thaksin regime has been replaced by a democratic government.

The regime must pay these terrorists 7 million baht each too. No double standards!

Gen Prayuth may be playing a dangerous game. No punishment for people confessing to placing metal spikes on roads? A lesser punishment such as a fine rather than imprisonment maybe, but not no punishment. Apart from anything else, metal spikes on roads can easily cause fatal traffic accidents.

I agree with dickemery. Where is the muslim outcry? Dont any of you have an opinion on this matter. I have never never read any rebuttal from a muslim on these comment sections. Everytime I question this it never gets posted but I keep trying.

Thailand you need real help on this. It has been going on to long and getting worse. Swallow your pride and get some serious help and stop fooling yourself that you can handle it on your own.

The army and police have failed its time to talk.The longer it is left the stronger the other sides negotiating platform. Look at Afghanistan when the forces pull out the country will revert to how it was prior to the war.Force simply dose not work in these situations. Unfortunately all I see on Thai TV by way of a discussion is some one belting or shooting the other side to make there point.Is that really the way to solve a dispute?
