I lived in Bangkok. It was a nightmare. So glad to get back home to a country that works.

See Michael Yon’s link to photos? Wounded Thai military forces. He warns they are gruesome and they are. Worse I’ve seen.

Yes I did.

But this post is about the Thai Red Shirts... more importantly, the huge inferno

Huh?

What the Red Shirts did to the Thai military is not germane to your thread?

OK...I’ll go elsewhere then. Sorry I commented.

Very sorry. I won’t make that mistake again on your threads.
