Watch out!Slorc's new "4 cut str



Is it a new version of Slorc's "Four Cut Straegy" under the auspicious of the
Royal Thai Government?

After following the repeated attacks by Slorc and its alliance DKBO
(Democratic Karen Buddhist Organization), one question sparked in my mind; Is
it the Slorc's new and improved version of "Four Cut Strategy" under the
auspicious of the Royal Thai Government?

After murdering and kidnapping Karen refugees sympathetic to the Karen
National Union, the result of these pre-determined attacks emerged, slowly
but clearly. Refugees living in the camps, close to the border and Slorc
military camps, were either forced to move to the areas controlled by Slorc
or forced to move further inside Thailand. Facing daily threats and living
under constant fear of attack from Slorc/DKBO troops, Karen refugees have no
choice left but moving further inside Thailand. So far, no effective
protection except pledges on paper by the Thai government against those
hostile intruders.

What is the possible scenario in the future if The Royal Thai Government let
those incidents keep on occuring? 

A stripe of land 5-10 km wide between Thailand and Burma will be cleared of
villages which sympathize with  the Karen National Union in several months.
Then, the Royal Thai Army decides to station its troops between refugee
villages and Slorc in order to provide "security for refugees". KNU guerillas
will be cut off from their families and supporters. 

In the past, Slorc has been trying to achieve this goal without sucess. Karen
revolution will be much harder without support from their people. 
Watch out friends.
If it is their (Slorc and Thai government) plot, be careful not to fall into
their trap.
