Thai jihad update. No doubt these Buddhist monks were acting provocatively somehow. "Insurgents kill two in southern Thailand," from UPI, with thanks to Jeffrey Imm:
Militants in southern Thailand killed a volunteer security officer who was escorting Buddhist monks while they collected alms Monday, Xinhua reported.Two suspected separatists shot and killed Aphidet Yongmakae as he finished his routine job of accompanying the monks on their rounds Monday morning in the southern province of Yala...
In another incident, Abdulmana Chaesor was shot by two gunmen while working in his shop in Yala city Sunday evening. The victim was a schoolteacher and a suspected police informant.
Police believe the killings were the work of Muslim separatists...
Can you think of any religion more fundamentally and diametrically opposed to islam than Buddhism?
Such brave warriors. I wonder if there are jihadi conventions where all the splodeydopes get together once every couple of years, catch up on gossip, exchange cards, etc.
Do you think they look down on the guys from Thailand because they target peaceful Buddhists? Do they tape "Kick Me" signs to their backs and pull their chairs away when they go to sit down?
Do they get drunk and wrap themselves in tableclothes and yell, "Oooo, look, I'm a big scary Buddhist!"?
