Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Thailand: Islamic jihadists murder four in raid on village office

Sep 11, 2014 11:27 am By Robert Spencer

thai-soldiersThis Islam That Is Not Islamic and Jihad That Is Not Jihad that has so annoyed our President is not limited solely to the Islamic State; oddly enough, it is global in its scope, striking as far away from the Zionist Entity as Thailand. Who among the learned analysts can explain how this oddity came to be?

“4 killed in bombing in Thai Muslim south,” Anadolu Agency, September 11, 2014 (thanks to Twostellas):

A raid on a village office killed four people in Thailand’s Muslim south Thursday as the Thai junta gears up to restart peace talks with separatist representatives.

Police general Kampanat Panitchprasert told the Anadolu Agency that an armed group attacked a local administration office in Pattani province – one of three provinces in the country’s far south with a majority Malay Muslim population.

The deputy-chief of the subdistrict, two other local officials and a private citizen were killed in the attack, while six other people were wounded.

According to preliminary police investigations, a group in a pickup truck and on several motorcycles stopped in front of the local subdistrict office, shooting into the office for several minutes before leaving.

Two bombs hidden near the office exploded after their escape, killing and injuring a number of people.

Police have said they believe insurgents were responsible.

The surge in violence erupted after the military government, which seized power May 22, named a new chief negotiator, National Security Council chief Thawil Pliensri, for a new round of talks with the rebels with Malaysia as a facilitator – for which a date has not yet been set.

The dialogue was initially started in March 2013 by then Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra’s civilian government, but was suspended last December as massive anti-government protests paralyzed the capital.

The bitter conflict, rooted in historical distrust between Malay Muslims and Thai Buddhists, has killed over 6,000 people and injured around 10,800 since 2004.

Although insurgents have never made their political goals clear, analysts says that some of them want a separation from the Thai State while others are asking for political autonomy.

    Muslims involved in a conflict? Why am I not surprised? “Religion of peace” indeed…

      Also, distrust involving muslims? I wonder if it has anything to do with the permission to lie to non-muslims, following muhammad’s example, and the paranoid nature of islam… Once again, no surprise there.

        It’s called ‘al taqiyya’, a sanctioned form of deception of infidels which Shi’ites get the blame for, but has become common across the spectrum when Muslims want to say something to other Muslims while deceiving non-Muslims.

      Oh but hey – Geo W Bush said “Islam is peace” when 3000 Americans were slaughtered by Islam 13 years ago today. He should be ashamed of himself and publicly retract that idiocy.

    “Who among the learned analysts can explain how this oddity came to be?”

    (Waving a hand frantically) Oooh, me, Sir! Me, Sir! Pick me!

    It’s the meaning of the words in their books, innit? None of this cut-rate Derrida words mean whatever we say they mean for the Islamic Jihadists.

    That and that humans are a highly imitative species. Human see, human do, as the saying goes.

    If people would quit occupying the land Muslims need when they get there, convert to Islam, and follow sharia law none of this would ever happen. Really it’s our fault.

    Come on, Robert. It’s Thailand’s foreign policy that’s the cause of all this, obviously.

    They shouldn’t have invaded Iraq and Afghanistan in the firs…oh….wait….

    The Thai military should give up the idea of talking to them and hit them as hard as they can so that hopefully they won’t be able to do much for ten years, and once they come back hit them again. That is the only thing they understand. Talking to them is not only a waste of time, it is a danger to any civilized society.

    Observe ‘mazo’ above, zealous east asian mohammedan Defender of and Excuse-Maker for Islam – that is, for JIHAD – pouring out post after post (and I wouldn’t necessarily assume that he is telling us the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth) in the hope of distracting, confusing, demoralising and bamboozling us into not seeing the wood for the trees.

    Perhaps he can tell us that the mohammedans in Thailand don’t read the same Quran, Sira and Hadith and revere the same Mohammed the Murderous, Lying, Raping, Slave-Taking Warlord, as other mohammedans do???

    Before he posts even one more posting on this site, let’s see him tackle what Geert Wilders has now said, of the Quran.

    “the Koran …is a handbook for terrorists. Blood drips from its pages. It calls for perpetual war against non-believers. That Koran before you is the hunting permit for millions of Muslims. A license to kill. That book is the Constitution of the Islamic State. What ISIS does is what Allah commands.”

    And for that matter, not only what ISIS does, but what many, many other Mohammedan entities, past and present, in many different places, do and have done, whenever they have had the power and the means to do it; whenever they have seen their opportunity.

    If the Thai state and its defenders and law enforcement are weak (I speak in Infidel terms), then the Mohammedans within the gates will be emboldened, and increase in aggressiveness. Not necessarily all of them at any one time, of course; for one of the chief ways that mohammedans confuse and demoralise the Infidels is by playing the goodcop/ badcop game to perfection; hoping that the infidels will not realize that, in the end, all of the ummah, or Mohammedan Mob, though different parts of it may vary in timing and tactics, and although different parts of it may fight most bitterly amongst themselves, has but one book, and one goal: the Islamisation of planet earth and the crushing or extermination or absorption of *all* non-Muslim persons.

    Seeing as one of our resident Islamopologists has popped up in this thread, hurling insults and accusations and throwing showers of sand, I advise all non-Muslims here present to go right back up to the top and reread the posted article, together with Mr Spencer’s brief comments.

    Southeast Asia is going to be the new locus for increased Muslim/jihadi conflicts. We’ve got the current conflict in Thailand, and a concentration of Islam in Malaysia, combined with the conflict between Burmese Muslims and Buddhists, the influence of radical Philippine Muslims and, of course, Indonesia to the south, with its own concentrations of Muslim ambition. Added to that is the wealth of the Sultan of Brunei whose own resurgent interest in mandating a puritanical form of Islam is likely to fuel the fires of discontent.

      You want to know where “Islamic terror” will strike next? Anyplace there are Muslims — what we call “terrorism” is their emulation of Mohammed.

    @Mazo

    I really don’t see how anything that you have had to say can in any way, justify the cowardly act of killing that was discussed in this article.

    If the Native Americans started shooting at police stations and killing Christians in America for the perceived crime of them being Christian (and therefore presumably their ‘oppressor’) I wouldn’t support that either.

    Have a great day.
