CHIANG MAI, Thailand, 2 Dec 2008 - It's a long held truism that in order to win a war, a protagonist must know their enemy as well as, or better than, they know themselves. Intelligence gathering, and application of the knowledge it yields, has for millennia made the difference between smaller forces winning a battle or campaign, and being overwhelmed and becoming margin notes of history, rather than lauded as heroes. In the current battle of wills being conducted within Thailand's capital, between - pro and anti government groups, the government itself, and alleged conflicting loyalties within the military and police forces, one of the key questions of the day remains unanswered - who is bombing the People's Alliance for Democracy (PAD) protest sites and members? And is it the PAD who have begun retaliating in a like manner against pro-government groups?]]> http://www.gazlannathai.com/eye/2008/12/who-is-behind-the-bombings-of-pad-in-bangkok/feed/ 0
