The stuttering parrot Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 You wouldn't think he'd say no scapegoats thus reminding everyone are the Koh Tao debacle and what a laughing stock he made of himself and the authorities. When an actual fact was printed that Yingluck swept to power and he decided to take the country by force after the yellows prevented forcefully the people's right to cast a vote maybe just maybe the 93% of people who love the junta might just feel a little let down having to endure yet another farce with no voice and intimidation which was a referendum fizzer.

NongKhaiKid Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 I wonder who this one person could be ? Help me please, I just have to know ! At least if Chalerm was around we'd get a clue, a teaser, as an initial would be given to work on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rorri Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 More guess work, more false info, to be followed by many more thai cop, PM, etc theories, put forward as fact. The one "suspect" was arrested for arson, not bombings, it appears anyone arrested for ANYTHING could now be a suspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

otherstuff1957 Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 The sad truth is that the BIB have such a poor reputation that we can't trust or believe anything they say. Even if they solve this case, we won't know if they have found the culprits or just some scapegoats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the few times Thai police are seen to be doing their jobs on an international stage. But remember what happened to the police guy who initially did HIS job on Koh Tao? He got moved.

Regardless of who is behind it all the authorities can't waste a golden opportunity to make themselves look like the lesser of two evils. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt that Mr. T is that stupid, if found to be involved he would be extradited back to Thailand no matter where he is and that is the last thing he wants. It looks to be coordinated and you need an organization for that, the BRN has such an organization, i cant think of any others in Thailand that could provide such logistics.

jaltsc Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 "...orchestrated by a single person..." The activities of the Khmer Rouge was orchestrated by a single person...Pol Pot. Just because it was orchestrated by one person doesn't mean only one person is actively involved. Sounds like a play on words to make it appear that the government is in control of a situation of which no one knows its extent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winniedapu Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 The paranoia and delusion of this lot is amazing. Raining? Thaksin done it. Helicopter crashed? Thaksin done it. Floods? Thaksin done 'em. Bombs? Gotta be Thaksin then, obviously. These people seem genuinely to either not know or not care or both, how they are perceived.
