General Prem has been living in a State owned house for the past 20 years. The protest was held in public place in front of a state owned house, not belonging to Prem's.

He has no business using our tax money to pay for his living expenses. Other privy counsil members live in their own homes. Why Prem receives special treatment, I have no idea!!!

The coup has no credit at all, taking all people's rights, destroyed democracy. They shoud be the professional army, protect our country, not fighting with the majority of the people who are their boss.

Anti-military coup and dictatorship in ThailandJul 26th, 2007 - 21:45:25

We would like the world to condem the military junta and the traditional dictatorship system in Thailand.

The event on July 22 night is unacceptable and violates fundamental rights of people. The police and military junta have no right to use violent ways to broke up the people demonstration by all mean. I believe that this was one of many dirty plans of the Thai military junta to use violent way to deal with the protester.

Prem is an ordinary man like the others and he is strongly believed by most people that he is behind the latest coup. This is beyond his duty and it is the main reason why people have to protest against his political interventions.

All Civilised World should pay more attention to the barbaric junta act to beat up empty-handed Sr.Thai Citizen and Innocent Children with a brutally method. The UN and Human Right Group around the world must step in and stop Thai's bloodthirsty dictator to suppress all Thais.

I agree with all the comments.
All smart people have been banned and prohibited from serving the Thai people. This is an english interview of one of one of the anticoup leaders...
This is just one of a few voices blocked by the government.
I just wanted to let the world hear what is going on in Thailand.

About fifty years ago, when Thailand was ruled by Dictatorship, Full Marshal Por Piboonsongkram, Two Thai representatives was brutally killed near the capital and the bodies were brutally pressed with red hot iron before death.
Four more were shot dead nearby Bangkok. During Field Marshal Salid Thanarat many victim were excecuted, to stop burnt houses for insurance.
Many more happened when Thailand was ruled by Dictator. Now another Dictator, Prem Tinnasularnon, Sonti Boonyaratgarin, Saprang Kalayanamit and the Gang come to rule Thailand by gun-point and tanks.
Please help Thai people free Thailand.

Buddhist neighbour of ThaiJul 27th, 2007 - 10:54:05

Coup was staged by a Muslim general, who before that was promoted by Thaksin. Since all Muslims are brothers, there is hidden agenda to work towards the southern Thai Muslim provinces breaking away from Thailand. What is happening in Thailand's south is an exact replica of Philipine's south. In both instances, the mediator is a territory-grabbing ( of Christian northern part of Borneo island) very Muslim radical regime and neighbour. The non-Muslim countries worldwide cannot see what destruction is planned for their future, when supremacy in arms will be of no more advantage!
