United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD) core leader Natthawut Saikua has announced that he will take one million cc's of blood from the protesters and spill it around Government House on Tuesday, in retaliation for the government's decision not to dissolve the House.

The drawing of blood will begin about 8am on Tuesday, Mr Natthawut said.

It would be taken from 100,000 volunteers, including protest leaders.

This would be a symbolic action. Cabinet ministers would have to walk over the protesters' blood when they enter Government House to work, he said.

If the government still refused to dissolve the House, then another million cc's of blood would be scattered oustside the Democrat Party headquarters.

Highly ironic because the person who they are trying to reinstall, fugitive billionare Taksin Shinawatra has innocent blood all over his hands. He was responsible for thousands of 'extrajudicial executions' and the murder of hundreds of innocent Muslims in the South for retribution of terrorist attacks.

As Taksin has absolutley no support in Bangkok at all the demonstrations and the ghoulish mass spilling of blood will have absolutely no effect. The ultimate and final stage is to provoke a violent confrontation with authorities. Presumably he thinks he has paid off or will be able to pay off one key tank brigade and they will respond to violence by taking the city.

2. Oh! It's not the kind of scattering of blood I thought he meant at first!

Gross, but it's a peaceful kind of protest.

3. we should take lessons from Thailand about protesting.

It sounds like a peaceful but attention getting means of protest.
