Khun CMFarang #2, not quite. Remember that a bunch of terrorists have just gone "shopping" at a defense volunteer outpost in the Deep South a few days ago!

It is better to withdraw all security forces since they could not protect the safety of innocent lives !!! Rest in peace all those poor victims.

These terrorists need to be stooped now. There's no excuse for killing innocent civilians, especially the killing of children. Time to take action.
