Bangkok Shut

The worrying thing with the Bangkok unrest is that there seems no way out of it.
As usual neither the Yellow nor Red shirts want anyone to be hurt, yet 7 have been shot even before the blockade began.
The Army has said that there may well be Civil War but they are not getting involved.
The purpose of the blockade is to remove the caretaker government and to stop democratic elections in February.
What the Yellow Shirts want is to remove the government and suspend democracy until they have changed the constitution...but only the government can change the constitution.
The Yellow Shirt folk and leaders seem to have come out of veritable nowhere in the last 2 months and now blockade the city leaving the only option the Army...
I am quite worried about a civil war and a very blood purge at the moment.
