Thailand: Regime Police Fire Rubber Bullets at Protesters’ Heads Regime violence will only increase number, resolve of protesters  – sham elections being disrupted.  December 26, 2013  (Tony Cartalucci) – Several protesters have been sent to the hospital as police began firing tear gas, rubber bullets, and using chemical laden water fired from water canons at the Thai-Japanese Stadium in Din Daeng, Bangkok. Reports and images from the clashes indicate that police have been firing rubber bullets at the heads of protesters, an illegal method that will only escalate tensions and attract more protesters – as was seen early December when protesters began overwhelming police barricades at one government building after another, including police stations, ministry buildings and Government House.  Images : (Top) Protesters clashing outside the Thai-Japanese Stadium – Din Daeng, Bangkok

Links Thai Crisis: Alternative Thai News Round Up December 18, 2013 (Tony Cartalucci) – With the ongoing counter-color revolution unfolding in Thailand against the Wall Street-backed regime of Thaksin Shinawatra, here are some stories published on Alternative Thai News that weren’t yet posted on Land Destroyer. Thailand: Inside the Mind of a Thaksin Regime Supporter Disturbing 2009 interview with pro-Thaksin demagogue reveals mentality of regime’s supporters – utter ignorance regarding human rights, basic human freedom, and the very concept of democracy they claim to be defending.  December 16, 2013  (Forward by Tony Cartalucci) – The following interview  via Chiang Mai City Life , features pro-Thaksin demagogue Kanyapak (DJ Aom) Maneejak in late 2009, revealing "democracy" as defined by the current regime’s supporters. From demanding participants of a legally sanctioned parade get their approval before proceeding (after violently dispersing a previous parade), to claiming "self-defense" when butchering an old man outside of his own home with knives and guns, to referring to convicted criminal, fugitive, and mass murderer, billionaire Thaksin Shinawatra, as the "embodiment of democracy," we are given a roller coaster ride through the twisted minds of Thailand’s electorate which continues to return a dangerous criminal to power, whether or not he is on the ballot, or even in the country.
