Bar4 Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 Yes they are very good photo's and one of the follow up comments: "take a bottle and take our oil then we will burn Bangkok down" every single leader said that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave32 Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 Nasty photo of the Canadian journalist. Nasty picture of the soldier lying next to him with his arm shredded from a grenade. Gut wrenching photos from both sides. Hard to make me angry, but the sheer stupidity of... nevermind. And then you see photos like this one: (note the 'peaceful protesters' banner serving as a backdrop and the t-shirt) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shygye Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 They're arresting monks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallenda Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 It's a violent protest with armed insurgents mixed in. They were warned to leave or face being arrested. They stayed. That's how it goes when you're joining a violent protest. Also, how to prove you really are a monk? And are monks above the law? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
