I Smell a Coup
2008-07-08 05:04:00 Quiet moments. Solitude. A good cup of coffee. These things make me happy. These things are seldom found in my household. Except for the coffee. That's always here. My mother-in-law might tend to disagree with me on the coffee, she thinks I make it too strong. I prefer the term bold. Then again, she prefers Instant so I don't really count her as a credible critic.This morning I was enjoying a rare hat trick--quiet, solitude and coffee. My wife had to be at work early and woke me to braid her hair. That's right. I braid my wife's hair. What's more, I do it well enough that she entrusts her golden locks to my groggy hands before she heads out of the door to face a discerning world. I'm a man of many facets. In fact, later today I'll be painting my daughter's fingernails. Welcome to Salon de Ed. Back to the hat trick.Unable to return to sleep, I made my way downstairs for...

Another Coup in Thailand?
2008-06-05 03:11:00 Have you been hearing about the possibility of another coup in Thailand?--the 19th since Thailand first became a democracy in 1932 and just 5 months after the current government came to power. It seems most likely that a coup won't be happening in the near near future. However, there is certainly political turmoil in the Land of Smiles right now.The BBC offers a pretty good synopsis of the current political struggle and the recent history that has caused it to emerge: "Why is Thailand in turmoil again?" However, there are certainly more undercurrents then the BBC is outlining.For the past few weeks I've been reading Thai new sources and maintaining an interest in the political landscape in SE Asia. Now that protests have gained world media attention, I thought it was worth putting up an article. More as this continues to unfold . . .

"I always listen to their news broadcasts," Mrs. Vlachos explains. "When the Voice of America refers to 'the Greek junta' instead of to 'the government of Greece,' I'll know that American policy has changed, that I will soon be able to return home." Post-Scarcity Totalitarianism The image of contemporary Greece that Mrs. Vlachos conveys is a powerful and tragic one. It is a country, she says, whose democratic institutions are stifled by a brutal elite of cynical opportunists. The list of their abuses is long. The power of the colonels, she asserts, is upheld by secret police, political arrests, widespread surveillance, torture, censorship, rigged trials, martial law, blacklists, academic and clerical purges, faked reports, NATO, the CIA, and the fixers.
