UN is our father - when it suits us
Play
Red shirts are petitioning the UN over the Peace TV ban. Some Thais believe they can play both ends against the middle and run to the UN, US, EU, etc, when they have problems that can and should be handled locally.
The ban on Peace TV is a local problem that does not rank up there with the illegal US invasion of Iraq, the hellhole that France, the UK and the US made of Libya, or the decades of economic lies told in Greece.
In other words, Peace TV and its supporters should grow up and stop hoping for Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy or Big Brother to come to town.
I suspect that the rest of the world is now well aware of the fact that the red-shirt faction in Thailand is just as dirty and corrupt as any other might be accused of being, if not more so, and that Peace TV is in the same category.
