There is another appearance of the article on the Thai situation from the Red Shirt view (the elites’ only objective is to seize power, civil war is a possibility, Thaksin was a victim of those who hate democracy, etc.).
This time the article has a more moderate title (Thailand’s Military Dictators Extend Hold on Power), rather than the title it had in Forbes (Thailand’s Military Junta Destroys Democracy, Enjoys Exercising Power: Generals Postpone Elections Before Rigging Them).
In its posting on HuffPo, a few words are changed and there are several additions referring to Prayuth as “Mr. Happy.”
A breakdown of this article, the viewpoint it represents, as well as the actual situation in Thailand, is here: Forbes: “Thailand’s Military Junta Destroys Democracy, Enjoys Exercising Power: Generals Postpone Elections Before Rigging Them”
Also: Lobbyist Amsterdam breaks with Thaksin, will pursue justice against the junta on his own
Until such time as they have the imagination to see that Old Square Face is just another thieving elite politician, they’re are always be living in Cloud Cuckoo Land.
