"Insurgency problem in the deep South is almost ended, partly because authorities have successfully cut their networks, army spokesman Akra Thiprote said Saturday.

"Our past actions have been very successful," Col Akra said. "We have ended their networks. What they are doing now are not coordinated like in the past." This can be viewed that "they are putting up their last fight," he claimed.

He also said that moral support of security forces has been restored thanks to good cooperation from all related parties.

On the army's next move to handle the insurgents, Col Akra said three steps will be taken -- changing villagers' opinions, taking legal steps against those who break the laws, and implementing military actions."

Actually, it was the CIA' s George Tenet, not Don Rumsfeld, who used that phrase.

HoHoHo.....
