Chapter 134 The Beginning of the Storm
Mountain Eagle initially thought that those Europeans and Americans were sent by the United States Embassy for negotiations...
But after talking to them, he realized that these European and American guys were actually journalists from England, and quite famous investigative journalists at that.
Under the guidance of a bona fide lawyer, they would go to interrogate the American soldiers. The secret recording equipment they carried would document the testimonies of those soldiers.
This was a classic case of using the enemy’s spear against their own shield; criminal immunity allowed these American soldiers to behave recklessly near any overseas base.
They were not afraid of local laws, but they were terrified of exposure, as public opinion would pressure the military’s upper echelons to deal with them.
This was where Thailand was at a disadvantage...
They couldn’t forcefully apply legal sanctions to those American soldiers who treated their women like pigs for sale, so they had to opt for a roundabout way of salvation, using media effects to force Bahrain to start an investigation.
As long as Thai women under control could return from Bahrain to testify, they could confirm this evil human trafficking channel controlled by the US Army.
Only after amplifying the impact was it possible to force the US Army to start an investigation, allowing the bad guys to be punished, while also suing the US Army internationally for compensation.
Mountain Eagle didn’t like this method much, but he had to admit that this was the best outcome Thailand could fight for.
