UPDATE, 1/16: Thank-you Israel. Following two reports Israel gave to Thailand, one in December and another Jan. 8, one terrorist is under arrest (1/13) and 300 pounds of bomb making material is removed (1/16). Initial arrest was made only hours after the US, via Israeli intelligence, warned its citizens in Bangkok. As of 1/16 report, "The US embassy still has not lifted the terror warning it issued on Friday" for American tourists.
