it's not very professional to announce the dead like as if you're bragging. Dying is nothing to brag about Mr. Siphan.

Pad Thais have advocated war with Cambodia (cancellation of 2000 MUOS and 1907 treaty, and push Cambodian out of Preah Vihear and border areas). PAD Thais should now realized that a Thai-Khmer war did happen at the Peah Vihear border with dead and destruction on both sides on Friday and Saturday. Why don't these PAD Thai lunetics stop war frenzies and talk about Thai real issues such as corruption, democracy, and poverty intead.

Thai don't acceptthe 2000 MUOS and 1907 treaty but Vietnam don't accept the peace agreement in Paris 1991 why we must respect the theaty 1907. We Thai will respect that as long the vietname respect the peace agreement in Paris 1991. The is our goals with Cambodia.

It's use for both sides to inflate the level of casulties. The important thing is to say the truth and to support our soldiers.

can you believe thai robbers? can they speak the truth? if they believe what they are doing is acceptable, why don't they prefer international mediation?

Above all, victims and robbers can never solve the problem without police or court but robbers never dare to go to the court.

Thai Nationalist 7:25, that is the most ridiculous statement I heard today!

So you want to out bully the bully in bullying a little kid on the playground? You listen to yourself hear how selfish and stupid that sound? When you see someone gets bullied and roughed up for a lunch money, you defend the weaker person out of sense of justice, of your dignity and character. You don't kick a down kid after he is bully to see what else he got left to give.

Your answers saids it all, everything about the type of person you are. The type of individual you are in real life. That is a pathetic heartless, soulless individual who is just an underdog bully, a low-life thief, who only comes to lick off the scraps of other thieves!

Pathetic really! You Thais who think this way and justify your ambition for invasion of Cambodia and claim of more Khmer ancestral land... are just simply PATHETIC! You don't belong to a club of nation or association of humanity like the U.N body, it puts the world to shame!

a bullet would probably come from some wandering khmer beggers in a robbering attempt rather from soldiers, too many of them in bangkok these days.
