Man beheaded on eve of Ramadan in south Thailand

Ramadan mubarak! From Reuters, with thanks to Twostellas:

BANGKOK (Reuters) - Suspected Muslim militants beheaded a villager in southern Thailand on the eve of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, police said on Wednesday.

Militants also raided an outpost, wounding five soldiers and escaping with five guns, according to an army radio message monitored by Reuters.

The attackers cut trees to block the road and placed spikes to prevent counter-attacks by soldiers, the radio said.

The head and torso of the man, thought to be in his 50s, were dumped in two fertiliser bags beside a road in a rubber plantation in Yala, one of the three southernmost provinces hit by the violence in which more than 900 people have died.

It should be "Ramadan Mubaruk".

Heads will roll over this.

Classic guerilla warfare...looks like the land of the Thai is now in play.

Vikrant,

Actually "mubarak," but yes, I realized that not long after I put it up, and made the correction.

Cordially

And you know what ? In Italy, some Italian dhimmis went to the Rome mosque to let the Muslims know that they are fasting , too , as a "sign of respect"
