		<description>Excellent point, antiPADshist! Absolutely ignored by the complicit Main Stream. Yet Another Instance of the Institutional Thai Double Standard.

Now the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bangkokpost.com/news/local/32820/asset-case-may-spark-violence-govt-warns-foreign-diplomats&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Thai military&#039;s English mouthpiece&lt;/a&gt; is warning &quot;&lt;em&gt;Diplomats and foreign businesses have been warned about possible outbreaks of violence due to the upcoming court verdict in the Shinawatra assets seizure case&lt;/em&gt;.&quot;

Clearly the military is planning large-scale murder and mayhem and has its propaganda wing laying the foundation for it, attempting preemptively to lay blame for their upcoming bloodbath on the Thai people.

I wonder if the Bangkok Post will dust off its &quot;special photo&quot; of the Crown Prince being &quot;hung in effigy&quot; in order to pour more gasoline on the flames of hatred and intolerance that its been obediently drumming up over the past fortnight?

The regime in Bangkok and the regime in Rangoon, I mean Naypyidaw, are rising and converging together, differing only in the degree of their barbarity at the present point in time.</description>

		<description>Thitinan does not have the same contacts with the military and privy council that have been of such great benefit to Panitan.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;...perhaps the government should consider replacing Panithan with Thitinan to boost its own chance of survival...&lt;/em&gt;

The powers in charge don&#039;t anymore care what happens to this government than they cared about the national consequences when they shut down Suvarnabhumi, Don Mueang,  and Thailand along with them.

They don&#039;t anymore care what happens to this government than they care about what happened to the Rohinga they towed out to sea, or to the Karen they&#039;re forcing into their Burmese brothers&#039; minefields.

They don&#039;t anymore care what happens to this government than they cared or care about what happens to the people of Map Ta Phut as long as they get their piece of the action.

The government is a Potemkin Village. It&#039;s a fraud. Abhisit is dressed up as PM and spouts statements contradicted before, during, and after the time they leave his mouth - all in plain view of anyone watching.

The government can be replaced at will.

That&#039;s the way it is, and that&#039;s the way they are so desperate to keep it.</description>

		<description>today on Nation top article is &lt;b&gt;&quot;&quot;Mr S&quot; behind suspicious funds for red shirts?&quot;&lt;/b&gt;

what is funny for me is:   Thai  (prostitute) of a Media  kept  and still keeps silent about the funds and sources  provided to PAD  during their   many months &quot;camping&quot; at Government House, then airports - all the logistics, supply, security,  PR  campaign  (24/7 LIVE broadcasts through ASTV, several stages, etc) !

certainly THAT HUGE campaign had required millions (or even BILLIONs  ?) of Baht !

yet  yellow press such as  Nation    surely would never  start to even bother  asking questions - where  THOSE money came from ? 

some time ago (back in 2008)  some blogs / websites / forums  some people have even posted lists of all those companies who  sponsored PAD.  but of course, Thai MSM had NEVER  published any.

and now lo and behold !   they eagerly join the chorus of  those singing about  UDD money.  although  UDD&#039;s  rallies and  ANY  efforts  would NEVER   match on grandiose  those of PAD.

not to mention that  there was  huge damage to  Gov. House, theft of property, weapons, computers, etc; as well as huge damage  to airports and TAT.
nobody was ever charged or even as much as NAMED !

but of course - Nation and their buddies would  keep silent on those issues. ;)

as saying goes TiT  (this is Thailand  - or as Thais say &quot;tini pratet Thai&quot; :D )

bias is too blatant and  stark  - that even nobody  points it out anymore.

		<description>Thitinan would not survive in the academic world if he were to join the government. And frankly, I&#039;m sure he won&#039;t join.</description>
