on the brink?
of full scale war? I love how the media plays these things up. Well, this is Ria Novosti. Definitely some action and it has whipped up nationalism on the Cambodian side. Nothing like shelling a centuries old national (and UNESCO heritage) treasure to stir that up (whether true or not). That nationalism might come in handy during upcoming elections. Of course, Thailand is not Grenada or the Falklands.
Hun Sen calls Drone a terrorist experiment
Apparently, a (downed) drone/UAV was found near Preah Vihear temple (near Thai/Cambodia border), including the so-called "black box". The PM, Hun Sen, said it wasn't Thai b/c it isn't the kind of plane used by Thailand and he doesn't believe Thailand would do this. He stated, instead, that he believed it was a terrorist experiment, potentially to prepare for terrorist attacks in Cambodia or Thailand. He mentioned AQ adn JI as the potential terrorist organizations behind the drone experiment.
Just curious to know if it's confirmed whether the Thai military has UAVs and have been using them. Also, what type of "black box" might a drone carry, if any.
