Day 5: Bangkok Shutdown: Friday Facts
Day 5: Bangkok Shutdown: Friday Facts
Thai TV just broadcast images (still and video) of the capture of a cache of weapons, from the Yellow Shirt crowd; cache including machetes, shotgun, M-16s, ammo and more. This follows on the earlier blast that injured 20, triggering the American embassy's warning.Yellow-Shirts shout: 'False Flag! Not ours!'
But who do we believe?
Inasmuch as all humans in this Day are required to 'investigate the truth' to 'see with your own eyes, and not through the eyes of your neighbor', and in light of the reality that we CANNOT go everywhere and view EVERYTHING in the headlines every day, it becomes even more important to vette and consider who creates trustworthy reports today.
Some of the trustworthy souls I've found to-date include Mark Steyn, Victor Davis Hanson, Michael Yon and Charles Krauthammer. Websites that have proven themselves to be honestly striving for accurate reporting and analysis of events include Drudge Report, Hot Air and American Thinker.

"Civil disobedience is not our problem. Our problem is civil obedience. Our problem is that numbers of people all over the world have obeyed the dictates of the leaders of their government and have gone to war, and millions have been killed because of this obedience. Our problem is that people are obedient all over the world in the face of poverty and starvation and stupidity, and war, and cruelty. Our problem is that people are obedient while the jails are full of petty thieves, and all the while the grand thieves are running and robbing the country. That's our problem."
~ Howard Zinn, from 'Failure to Quit'
