Thailand's Woes!

Just as it seemed (to me) that Thailand was headed for civil war and that the trouble was spreading to other areas of the country, this was just posted on one of the many websites I visit several times a day:

Redshirt leaders turning themselves over to the police, Waaing a Buddha image before being whisked off seperately by the police.

Nattawut, now surrounded by police and reporters has been handed a microphone and is making another address to his supporters urging them to disperse, and cooperate with the authorities in sending them home. Says again that the struggle for democracy will carry on and that his heart is with them. http://www.thailandqa.com/

But on the other hand, this just posted on another website, regarding an area called Ubon Ratchathani...not Bangkok http://memock.wordpress.com/2010/05/19/ubon-red-shirt-protests-turn-violent/

I am sure that 'it ain't over yet'.
