Thai troops mobilizing to disperse red shirts

Thai troops and armoured vehicles take up their positions on a deserted road at the entrance of the business district during a rally by anti-government "red shirt" protesters in Bangkok May 19, 2010. Large numbers of Thai troops and armoured vehicles gathered early on Wednesday near a fortified encampment of anti-government protesters in Bangkok in what may be the start of a crackdown to disperse them, witnesses said.
