Thai senators are preparing to file a complaint with the International Criminal Court accusing Cambodian prime minister Hun Sen of being a war criminal, following the latest military clash on the border.
Appointed Senator Paiboon Nititawan, a key member of the 40 Senators Group, said yesterday they would meet with international law experts to discuss their plan to sue Hun Sen.
"A military fight against each other is normal. But Cambodian soldiers intentionally firing heavy weapons into Thai villages was considered an unacceptable attack," Paiboon said.
He believed the senators could sue Hun Sen because Cambodia was a signatory of the ICC.
The move appears to be a largely symbolic protest as the senators should be aware the international court is purely a court of "last resort" that only handles extremely serious matters such as genocide and crimes against humanity - if such issues can't be resolved in a country's own courts.

ThaiLand is doing the right things.
As long as Cambodia has VIOLATED the 23 October 1991 peace Agreement
Thailand has the rights to do so...
If Vietnam can do Thailand and Laos can do too.
There is nothing wrong with that, due to PARIS PEACE AGREEMENT.
I say Thailand's doing the great job!
Invade as much as Thai can do....
If Viet can do same as Thai and Laos, doing their part.
Thank You Thai...
The SRP are happy and rejoice of this news.

7:35 AM,
Sam Rainsy will be install by the Siam to run the new government after the full scale war between Khmer and Thai. Sam Rainsy is very excited about this and look forward to working with the Khmer people under Siam direction.
I hate that bastard Hun Sen but I think those Thai Senatores are not very smart . How can you file a complaint against Hun Sen if you don't even know for sure who started ? You might get backfired if you do it because Hun Sen has no reason to start fire at Thai first unless Thai are crossing the border. What's the point for Hun Sen to start fire at Thai if he already got Preas Vihear on his side ?

I support this idea. The ICC will arrest Hun Sen and Hun sen will also reveal that Abbhisith is also doing the same as him. So both men will arrested by ICC. It will good for Cambodian and Thais people. Vietnam needs to step back their decarmation posts to their land of origin. One bullet can shoot for two birds.

It's so funny, source in Phnom Penh said: TV Bayon, CTn, TVK asked for money donation to help soldiers at the border, because the government has no money to pay to their soldiers at the front lines...
alot of cpp supporters are afraid of sam rainsy that is why anywhere they go they mention sam rainsy's name even he has nothing to do with the news article . they do anything they can to make him look bad . bad tactic maneuver guys.

The government has the budget , why they sak viewers for donation ? It is just a small war and less than a week old they and asked for donations already . What if it keeps going for a few months ? Are those soldiers going to die because the government can't support them ? Poor management ........
I know ak HUN SEN ia bad but thai is the worst.what you think when you kill alot of khmer in 1979...'REMEMBER PHNOM DONGREK'
LOL..These Thai senators is stupid as a donkey. Sometime I wonder
Hahaha, I've anticipated this feeling. I knew Thailand will react like this. They been playing like this all along since their birth of the nation. Now they using REVERSE PSYCOLOGY toward Cambodia. Instead, Cambodia or HUN SEN is the one that sue them!
Khmer Poipet,
7:59 AM
stop spreading that virus you motherfucker.
So Thai said there should not be any villages near the border right? So if there isn't any, how come Khmer bombs are landing on Thai village and no Thai bombs are landing on Khmer village side? If it does, what difference are the senators making? Shelling drops on Thai village is a war crime, shelling drops on Khmer village is for fun?
Give me a break! Thais are an ironic bunch of shames. Shitful of shames!

All Khmers,
How this matter had escalating until this Khmer-Thai borders' war???
1- Sihanouk with the accomplice of Hun Sen had kicked U.N peace keeping forces out of Cambodia.
2-Cambodian administration had VIOLATED the Paris Peace Agreement first by letting Vietnam to encroach 15 Km deeper inside Khmer territories in eastern borders.
So Thailand had the rights to encroach Khmer lands or getting some thing from Khmer too.
Why N.Sihanouk, Khmer king, and Hun Sen government did not bring the case to the Hague in the first place???
This is for Senator Paiboon Nititawan
Talking about war crime and criminal. Thailand is the worse, When I was 8 years old. Your government deport me and fellow Cambodian and Muslim minority from Norng Chan to Dorng Raek next to Preah Vihear Temple. I seen our fellow Cambodian people and the Muslim minority in front of me step on the land mine and exploded into the air killing innocent people. I seen baby laying on the dead mother arm crying and nobody able to save the baby because of the land mine. It took us more than 12 hrs to crossed into Cambodia for a 3,000 feet path to get to Cambodia. Why did you murder innocent people in 1979. We're harmless to your country. The international was willing to accept us into the third country but you just deport and murder us. Now just the issue of PAD ousting the elected PM out. And PAD MP intensionly crossing the border illegally into Cambodia to provoke the war. You know that Preah Vihear and it surounding land of 4.6 KM was award to Cambodia since 1962 and you PAD people called is a dispute land. You never respect the ICJ and you murder those muslim prostester. As for Khmer people that know history and more educated, We never support Hun Sen but you Thai politician are not better than him. Those Khmer soldier at the border just doing their job to protect our motherland from you Thai invader. They doesn't get pay as much as Thai soldier and lack of mordern weapon. But they're proud to die for their motherland. And we Khmer oversea are proud of them. We will not you minipulate and twist the border issue and try to convince the international body. We Khmer over will prostest against your PAD government for war crime. If we can help our Khmer army at anyway we will send the money for them to purchase the mordern weapon to put you PAD out of mystery so Asia can live in peace.
Khmer Poi Paet live in US.
What is funny for me:
This article is about Hun Manet. Its mentioned that he become promoted as a 2 Star General which is a Major General.
Still the article is speaking about Hun Manet as a Brig. General, 1 Star.
So please learn first the Difference between a 1 Star and 2 Star General AFTER you can start to talk to the International Community.
Have a look at the picture. With this bunch of Generals you want win a war against Thailand?
People are laughing about Khmer People when they see how unprofessional they are working.
The soldiers even do not clean their weapons so a lot of it do not function as seen by a foreign TV Team.
Do not forget:
The first person who talked about the "DISPUTED AREA" and named it as "DISPUTED AREA" was Hun Sen and OF COURSE the Thai Government jumped on it.
Understand where the problem come from!

Thai have moved the border post during after Khmer Rouge Regime. If you're Khmer. Stop bragging about Thailand. If you're SRP Party stop blamming the other party and go straight to Pnom Penh to help your country.
If you're a PAD member you should pack up and leave the country because RED SHIRT gonna butcher you for ousting out their elected PM Thaksin. As to those who doesn't like my comment you can come to Philadelphia and kiss my ass.
Kasit Piromya was born in Cambodia. His parents later moved to Thai when Battambang handed back to Cambodia.
Khmer Prahtabang,
If the fighting continues a few more weeks, some government agencies will not have monies will not have money to pay for their staffs' salary.
Hun Sen needs money to buy more ammos.

9:07AM,
Don't you worry. Sam Rainsy will be install by the Siam soon to run the new government after the full blown war between Khmer and Thai. Sam Rainsy is in contact with the Thai government as we speak in preparation to take over the new power. Sam Rainsy is very excited about this and look forward to working with the Khmer people under Siam direction.
Ah thai PM is the real war criminal that needs to brought to justice, not Hun Xen.

Some Khmer people never stop pointing finger to one side and other side.
The one side gets help from Thai;and the other one gets
help from Vietnam.
After Khmer empire,
Khmer kings and leaders have done
that.
The Khmer NEW GENERATION ME must
stop this evil behavior again.They
must quit of depending on Thai help and Yuon to get power or gain
amidst opponent,Khmer and Khmer.
Please!Please!Please!Please!Please quit!
Not depend on Thai
or on Vietnam to win over his opponent forever.
Great news for Sam Rainsy!
i'm sure cambodia will file a lot of lawsuit against the siem as well for a lot of things we already discussed on this blog, etc!
Great opportunity for the Khmer around the world to sue the Thai military forces and the Thai government for their barbarism action again the Cambodian people and refugees at the Thai Cambodian border from 1975 until 1980.
Don't waste your breath Thai senators.
First, you need to solve the crimes committed by Thai government during the crackdown on protesters resulted in 91 deaths in May 2010.
Solve your domestic problems first!
Some nerves these senators have.
This is good for Cambodia! Let the Siem thieves take Cambodia to court and then the Cambodian can present all evident of how the Siem became a fucken thief!
Abhisit was born in Svay Rieng, Cambodia, moved to Thailand on 7 january. When Vietnam intruded in Cambodia.
Now he is crazy leader, forgot his national, caused by linga of Siem girl,
Chao khmer surin
