HoustonTx: your eloquence is noted- I hope you are cool now after coughing up fire. Don't think you have now tamed testdirector or anything. The king knows how bad a shape he is in. That's a problem because once he knows he has no option left, he will try the last option as a last straw (of course he is loose out there). That's why he is ganging up royalists:- for a king to be given a state honor amid his national anthem at this juncture is a point to consider. Why he managed to get it? No doubt the coup would be a failure, but the problem it can entail for the country.
