Thai and Cambodian troops clash at disputed border

TONY SAYS:
So listen to this bullshit, alright? Thailand and Cambodia, these two shitholes, they’re at it again. Shooting at each other like a couple of guidos at a wedding. This ain’t some fuckin’ street brawl in Newark, this is international relations, or whatever the fuck they call it.
Apparently, it all started near some temple – Ta Muen Thom, or some such thing. Sounds like a place Paulie Walnuts would get lost in, a real backwater. Anyway, the Thais are sayin’ the Cambodians started shootin’. The Cambodians, naturally, say the Thais started it. Who the fuck knows, right? It’s like tryin’ to figure out who ratted on who in a crew. You’re never gonna get the whole truth.
These Cambodians, they sent in a drone first, these fuckin' high-tech savages. Like some kinda’ toy for grown-ups, except it’s got better optics than Janice’s new glasses. Then, boom, they send in their troops, heavily armed, the whole nine yards. Two Thai soldiers got clipped, a couple of light scrapes, nothin’ serious. At least, that’s what the Thais are sayin’. You ever notice how these reports always kinda' downplay the casualties? Like they're sellin' weak coffee at the Bing – it’s probably worse than it seems.
This Hun Sen fella, the ex-leader, he’s blabbin’ on Facebook about shelling and panic. Facebook, cazzo! This ain’t some soccer mom bitching about the PTA. This is about fuckin’ war! But he's right to say people shouldn't panic. Panicking gets you nowhere. Except maybe a stomach ache. Better to have a good gabagool sandwich and a glass of red, if you ask me.
Their Prime Minister, this Hun Manet guy – another one on Facebook – he’s all about "responding to armed aggression." Sounds tough, right? Like he's gonna send in some serious muscle. Maybe a few guys who know how to handle a fuckin' AK-47, not some kid with a paintball gun.
The Thai acting prime minister, this Wechayachai, he’s all “delicate,” this and that. Delicate? This ain’t a fuckin’ wedding cake, pal. This is war! And he wants to do it by the book? These guys are all talk. All these diplomats and their "international law" – it’s a bunch of horseshit.
This whole thing started a day after Thailand recalled its ambassador – a real diplomatic move, right? And then Bangkok expels Cambodia’s ambassador. It’s like a fuckin’ divorce, except with more guns. Relations between them are at their worst in over a decade? Yeah, well, my marriage to Carmela's been worse. A lot worse. That's a whole other story.
The bottom line is, these two countries are at each other’s throats. They’ve been beefing for months, strengthening their troops, throwing restrictions back and forth like they’re throwing punches. It’s a mess. A real goddamn mess. And you know what? I bet it ain’t over yet. Just remember what I said: It's better to be the guy holding the gun, than the guy looking down the barrel. Capisce?
