The Two Sides of Peace

This blog entry will tackle about the events of war and rebellion happening in my country. This might be long so leave if you must.

3 months ago a tragedy took place in the southern parts of my country. 44 brave soldiers died while tracking down a terrorist. The terrorist was said to be killed yet, no body was found, only a finger was found. The government said that the terrorist was dead and the DNA is identical to that of his brother but nothing about the fingerprints were said. The sad part is, nobody cared about what happened on the other side, the rebels' side. Less of them died compared to the Fallen 44 but a death, even if it's only a single death, is a big death.

What I'm trying to say is that people usually believes in what the government says. 2 years ago a scam was found out. Non Government Organizations were using the money from the taxes of people for their personal well being. A year before that, it was found out that the Chief Justice, now former, has been taking the money of people through their taxes.

I'm not saying that the rebels are right and that the government is wrong and vice versa. What I actually want to say is that both have been manipulating the nation. They keep on trying to have peace talks but usually one person from both sides end up doing something wrong and the peace talks are delayed. Millions of money are wasted in doing this. The citizens are promised of peace from both sides yet, all they get is nothing. Sometimes they get more problems due to the rising conflict.

I hope you guys took time to read this because I am not making a TL;DR and for the people who have read this, please don't make a TL;DR in the comments. That would make me somewhat annoyed. Other comments such as reactions and opinions are always welcome and will be greatly appreciated.

I totally feel ya, bro. It is really really frustrating to see things like this, happen so blatantly and so ugly, yet no one bothers/can stop it. I've been listening a lot to Akala recently(English singer/rapper/poet) and he tackles a lot of this kind of stuff in his songs. He is a really interesting character as well, so I really recommend him.

knowledge is power, and a lot of this knowledge is unfortunately under heavy surveillance by the governments, wanting you to learn what they want you to learn, while obstructing what they don't want you to know. Shit like calling the US an Empire is really frowned upon, but it is a fact. When you see all the people supporting wars in other countries for 'freedom' while the government goes in for something else in mind. I think a lot about the US since I live here in Canada, and I haven't learned about Thailand at all.

@migles I know what you mean. I have the same mindset sometimes. Politics is really depressing often times, and especially when you are powerless to help :( But look at me; now I'm studying politics. Depressing stuff sometimes, but we can't hide from it forever :P
