PAD make chaos in Thailand

I have not had time to write about what is happening in Thailand. But now I can not really hold back. Not that I have more time. I only feel the need to put as much light as possible on what is happening in Thailand.

PAD that has been occupying the government buildings in Bangkok for some time now, have gotten tired to only sit there and nothing happens. So they have become active again. They have tried to occupy some other government buildings and now also the new airport. And they are using quite allot of violation too. There seem to be more about this in new outside of Thailand then inside. But I can not really confirm this. In the links to different newspapers bellow there is allot more articles.

If you understand Swedish, you can follow the progress at Maleés blog. She is very actively reporting the progress.

Police use teargas

So now the police tries to clear the mob outside the parliament. I am new to Thai politics. But what I here the People Alliance for Democracy(PAD) want to take away the peoples right to vote. And now, to get their will, they occupying the Parliament. OK, the people who in the parliament now is maybe not the most democratic people. But they win the vote of the people. Stop fighting and start planning for the next election. It is OK to show that you do not like the government. But not like this. Gather you information and tell the people. Then win the next election.

Update: look at the pictures down to the left, is it a hand grenade. Who is holding it?

Note: I really would like to be better at Thai language, so I could understand the Thai news.

Is Bangkok becoming a warzone?

At the moment it looks like there is big fights between the people in the oposition and people who support the current goverment. So far it is only police who try to stop the fighting. But military might move in. Hope not. The oposition want the military take the power again and put out new elections.

So far news in Sweden does not show much about this. And it might also be that media is being held up in Thailand too. Some normal channels of new are black at the moment.
