Fleeing was brave and justified

“Phew!” That’s probably the junta’s reaction after learning that Yingluck had fled.

By the way, had Yingluck shown up on Friday and left the court in a prison van, I would have kissed the ground she walked on. But she chose to run and I can dig that, too. I would have done the same if I were her. It’s like playing poker against opponents who are colluding against you, so you say: “Fornicate it! I quit.” You fold your cards and walk away.
To dream the impossible dream, to fight the unbeatable foe are crap that only sound good in a song. It’s better to run where the brave dare to go.
