UDD warns there will be blood

[Richard Barrow]

They will perform a ritual first. Which means it is just symbolic. Bangkok street cleaners on standby to clean it up straight away.

Do the red-t-shirts party know it can be very tricky (transfer diseases who are impossible to heal from) to handle real blood that way.(I work in medical health).
Why don't they choose red paint?

Nevertheless, i think it's wrong to use such a brute force. Why don't they use the democracy. Use words instead of physical violence.

(oh here in Netherlands government is fallen a few weeks ago, because of a NO against Afghanistan war. We vote here the 16 June if I'm right)

I hope the violence is soon over, and so stable climate between the Thai people.

Blood has now been "spilled" at Government House. They will next move onto Democrat HQ this evening.

Pretty pathetic.

Why don't they use the democracy.

Because democracy doesn't work in Thailand. It is too immature a society to handle democracy yet.

Because democracy doesn't work in Thailand. It is too immature a society to handle democracy yet.

The more multicultural Australia has become the less democratic Australia has become, yes we are reverting to immaturity.

If you are not too squeamish, here are two links to photo albums of lots of blood!

Thanks for the warning Richard, That's real blood, Not the tomato sauce they use in the movies.

[Pailin]

Nevermind the hundreds and thousands of patients in Thai hospitals right now in desperate need of that blood.

The United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship is threatening to splash the entrances to Government House with its supporters' blood.

Co-leader Natthawut Saikua said yesterday the UDD would today start drawing 1,000 litres of blood from around 100,000 red shirt demonstrators and splash it about the grounds of Government House if Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva insisted on clinging to power.

I think they are begining to lose the plot.
