The question again is whether these groups have the capability or resources to strike?
More importantly, would they be so callous as to target innocent civilians in order to create chaos and instability?
Although the regime's opponents have condemned the senseless attacks, they have little hope that the authorities will establish a case based on factual evidence.
In the meantime, the cowardly terrorists have escaped. Perhaps they are sitting quietly in the background watching for what unfolds next. It is very likely no one will claim responsibility for the fatal blasts, and that we will never know the truth. The bombers will have the advantage of being able to strike again if it suits their agenda.
Let us not be shorted sighted or ignorant of the real threat of death we the people of Burma face. The real threat is for all the Burmese including soldiers—the threat that the Tamataw, Myanmar military, poses. Since its founding, this evil institution was responsible for the deaths of millions of innocent Burmese, the very people it exists to protect.
Millions more Burmese will lose their lives because of this evil institution. So, any action taken and will take against fighting this evil institution is not only honorable but commendable for all Burmese. I applaud the bombings in the recent weeks though I sincerely regret the loss of innocent Burmese. I hope this is just the first of many steps patrotic Burmese take. I expect more bombings of military personnel, security personnel, Burmese cronies and their families and the evil general and their families in the future, just like what Obama is doing with the whole Taliban group in Pakistan and Afaghanistan.

The bombings in the Kachin State and in Yangon during Thingyan Festival are far too sophisticated for an average Burmese Political Party or an ordinary disgruntled individual to execute; it needs money, intelligence and timing. This is a result of infighting amongst Than Shwe and Company.
Therefore, when Than Shwe points one finger at them there are three pointing back at him with the affirmative thumb locking in as proof that he is the author.

Never heard or read that his grandson Nay Shwe Thway Aung was around that pavilion. Was he there around that time? Or did he really even come to that pavilion?

No. The bomb man is a cynical character, not our friend or anybodys friend.
"Please don't tell the readers the opposition groups are not capable of such attacks which are quite low-skilled potshots."
The opposition groups have any winnings in the killing of a spoiled grandchild. The military regime is stronger without he.

You are obviously a junta man. The ethnic minorities do not bomb and kill civillians like junta troops do. It is the civilian population who support the resistance movements. It has never been in their interests to carry out terrorist attacks, they leave that to the tatmadaw to do that. It sound more like factional divisions within the tatmadaw who are responsible for this cowardly attack. May freedom, peace and equality come to Burma one day.

No matter who had detonated the bomb, what matters most is why violence seems to increase recently in such a military dictatorship country that has no freedom at all.
For more than three decades, people have been living under abject poverty, fear, and lack of human rights; their own brethren, minority ethnic groups are forced to take armed resistance as the last resort for equality and self determination.
Instead of solving these terminal disease like internal political issues, trying to dub the act as 'terroriam' is just merely creating a red herring fallacy in order to divert public opinion from hidden reality and bark up the wrong tree.

You are dead right when you said, "there are many people and several groups, both inside and outside the country, that would love to see the regime leaders, or their family members, assassinated or violently overthrown".
I for one would be celebrating and popping open the champagne cork if and when this happens.

Well, Burma has a series of bombings (with-nobody-can-tell-who-is-behind-which) over the last decades or so, listed in few only as:
- Bombings on S-2, Gen Tin Oo's family
- Bombing (alleged) of S-2's chopper(killing him)
- Numerous bombings nationwide
All showing only that these are the acts of cowards. And it seems strange that they are never uncovered. Or, we wouldn't know, proper efforts are ever put into to get the truths by the authority.

You have totally misled the readers, especially those who are not close to the opposition movement. There are a number of groups in Mae Sot training operatives to send inside. Yes, they do have funding as much as your Irrawaddy does. And they did train operatives in explosives. If you don't know who they are, you are probably too naive or ignorant or both. The opposition groups are definitely to be suspected. But no one can tell who did it at this point. Please don't tell the readers the opposition groups are not capable of such attacks which are quite low-skilled potshots.
