Undeclared Civil War

[PattayaMale]

Today I read an interesting comment. Thailand is heading into an undeclared civil war. This will happen unless a third person from outside Thailand can help mediate.

 

"Contrary to the repeated claims of various UDD leaders that their movement is non-violent, photos, video and eyewitness accounts demonstrate that many UDD security guards and protestors are armed with guns, explosives, petrol bombs, slingshots, metal clubs, knives, sharpened bamboo sticks and other weapons," HRW said. (Human Rights Watch)

 

The article also noted that there have been over 70 bomb attacks (many more than I was aware of).

 

Even though the article was published in the "Nation", it was written by Agence-French Press. Civil War

I guess it would depend on the strict definition of "Civil War", but it would appear to me by my understanding of the definition, that Thailand is currently in a civil war, with several groups involved in various ways. But you have Thai people fighting Thai people = Civil War????

 

No one is in control...not the government, military, Red, Yellow, Mixed Color, etc.....NO ONE IS IN CONTROL!!

"Civil War. What an oxymoron. How can there be a civil war?"
