I said this since day 1 from military coupe in 2006 that it was not really a good thing to have it bloodless & seemingly peaceful - because that had Thug-Sin fled.
Today because he had fled, and stirred troubles from abroad, there is spilling of blood and deaths and injuries and unrest in Thailand lasted for years.
In Chinese idiom we say this is 放虎归山后患无穷。
Today traitor Thug-Sin is collaborating with Thai Kingdom's enemy Hun Sen Regime of Cambodia which is a deadly border conflict with Thais.
Not only that, there is now a Civil War on Bangkok's street, because of Thug-Sin, and he is funding it with his filthy corruption BLOOD Money!
It should be rather that a proper price is paid to rid this bastard Thug-Sin early in 2006, then the serious consequences and crisis from 2006 till 2010 would had been all avoided. The price and damages multiplied by many times, since the military ouster had neither captured nor killed this traitor Thug-Sin.

<!-- end heading-panel --> A United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship leader has admitted the red shirt rally has received financial support from ousted prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra and Khunying Sudarat Keyuraphan, the former deputy leader of the dissolved Thai Rak Thai party .
"I accept that Thaksin himself and some politicians, including Khunying Sudarat, have given us financial support, as have other donors, but I don't know how much they've donated," UDD co-leader Jaran Dithapichai said on the Ratchaprasong rally stage last night.
"What's wrong with that? Rallies have costs and we need donors. Even other UDD members and myself have had to spend our personal funds on the rally."
Mr Jaran's statement came after the Centre for the Resolution of the Emergency Situation (CRES) announced plans on Sunday to freeze the financial transactions of 106 people and companies it believed had provided funding for red shirt activities.
A CRES source said the ban would be extended to cover at least 10 other individuals and companies including Work Supply Co, BBD Development Co, BBD Property Co and SC Asset Corporation.
A photographer spotted ex-premier Thaksin shopping at a Louis Vuitton store in Paris last Saturday.
Department of Special Investigation chief Tharit Pengdit yesterday met Col Sihanart Prayoonrat, acting secretary-general of the Anti-Money Laundering Office, representatives of the Office of the Narcotics Control Board and representatives of the Revenue Department.
They later briefed representatives of more than 80 financial institutions, banks, securities companies, life insurance companies and cooperatives on the CRES's requirement that they submit details of the financial transactions of people and companies on the banned list between Sept 1, 2009, and May 17, 2010.
Executives of any financial institution that fails to abide by the CRES order could face up to two years in jail and a 40,000 baht fine. The penalty would apply to each transaction that the firms fail to report to the CRES.
Puea Thai spokesman Prompong Nopparit said the ban was irrational as some party MPs on the list had never been involved in red shirt activities.
"The government should revoke the ban because what they're doing won't stop people's protests," Mr Prompong said. "Instead, it will provoke more protests around the country."
Bangkok Puea Thai MP Anudit Nakorntap said almost all party MPs for the city, apart from Danuporn Punnakan, were included on the banned list.
He suspected the CRES was trying to undermine the Puea Thai chances in Bangkok's district assembly elections on June 6.
Today because he had fled, and stirred troubles from abroad, there is spilling of blood and deaths and injuries and unrest in Thailand lasted for years.
