THAILAND will consider withdrawing its troops in Iraq if the security situation there worsens, Foreign Minister Surakiart Sathirathai said Tuesday.


"At this time we are able to function like every other country but if the situation worsens and our troops cannot perform their duties then I will consult with the prime minister," Surakiart told reporters.

Surakiart said the defence ministry was assessing the situation on a daily basis and so far it believed the presence of the 440-strong Thai contingent in the central city of Karbala was welcomed by the Iraqi people.


"If we can still help them and still receive cooperation we will continue our work," he said.

Korea, Japan and now Thailand in the news *tonight* talking pull out. George needs to dig deeper with his bribes. These people aren't sheeple.

1. That's ok, we can call up more reservists.

Such a grand and wonderful strategy by the neocons to launch a needless war with no international support. Even the few small contingents that came along are bailing out now. The world is making it clear to us that Iraq is an AMERICAN problem. Thanks a lot, Bush cabal. This nation will suffer for decades because of your corrupt and incompetent regime.
