“The best acts that bring you closer to God are jihad, so hurry to it and make sure to carry out the invasion this holy month and be exposed to martyrdom in it,” so said Islamic State spokesman Abu Mohammed al-Adnani as Ramadan began several weeks ago.
“Six killed and 11 injured in Thailand’s violence-hit south,” Reuters, July 11, 2015 (thanks to Lookmann):
BANGKOK (Reuters) – Six people were killed and 11 injured in Thailand’s three southern provinces of Yala, Narathiwat and Songkhla in a string of bomb and arson attacks by suspected separatist militants, the army said on Saturday.
The violence was related to the holy month of Ramadan, said Colonel Pramote Prom-in, a regional security spokesman. Attacks often escalate during Ramadan.…
Three people were killed early on Saturday in separate incidents in three shops in Sungai Kolok in southern Narathiwat province, after three were killed and three injured late on Friday by a motorcycle bomb in the town of Padang Besar in Songkhla.
In a separate incident, eight were injured by a bomb in front of a hotel in Narathiwat’s Sungai Kolok.

Thanks to are cluesless and traitorous politicians, this same violence will be coming to the USA in the near future. We must push Congress to stop all Muslim immigration into the USA.

In the West, such a statement could cost him his job, career and character.

And more than likely his or a family members life.

No wonder the unholy month of Ramadan makes them aggressive. They want to kill innocent civilians, infidels. The Thai Buddhists are so peaceful.

What a bunch of bologna!
Criminal behavior — like jihad aka terrorism — does NOT bring anyone “closer to God”! Wow you would have to be *preeetty* brainwashed and evil to believe this rot!
Getting closer to the one true God comes through knowing and serving Jesus Christ, not through carrying out satans evil plans…

Malay nationalist separatists are at it again. Thai speaking Muslims and Chinese speaking Muslims in northern Thailand aren’t blowing things up.
Phil says
Really…? It’s all about ethnic separatism and nationalism. Only that? And this explains the repeated involvement of Rohingya jihadis in Narathiwat over the last eight years – how exactly?
It sounds like jihad fi sabil allah to me.
dante says
Thailand needs to follow Myanmar’s example. Kick them out.
shams78 says
Can’t do that smarty pants.
While Rohingya are not native to Burma and are not citizens and can therefore be expelled, Malays are actually native to Southern Thailand and are citizens of the Thai state.
And Thai speaking and Chinese speaking Muslims in northern Thailand have not caused any trouble.

Following Islam is inherent “trouble.” A fuse ready to blow.

Shocking! Oh wait…bordering a moderate Muslim-majority country (Malaysia). Never mind.
Matthieu Baudin says
The violent Jihad in Southern Thailand doesn’t get nearly enough coverage but it should as it’s directly linked to the fundamentalist fervour across the border in northern Peninsula Malaysia.
