The 2006 coup d'état was far more than a simple case of military seizure of power. Rather, the 19 September 2006 coup is connected intimately with the monarchy in various respects. The "royalist military" legitimated the coup by using the royalist discourse that was generated by the anti-Thaksin movement and the massive celebrations of the king's 60th year on the throne. Having succeeded in overthrowing prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra, the coup makers thought they could secure the throne by ensuring loyal succession to the position of Army Commander-in-Chief in the medium term. To enhance military influence the "royal military" are also revitalising a Cold War relic, the Internal Security Operations Command (ISOC). In line with this political regression, it appears that military want to return Thailand to the years of "semi-democracy," when the military and bureaucracy had significant power over elected politicians
