Probably not Methodists, either. We all know that terrorism has nothing to do with Islam, because all our moral superiors tell us so. How inconvenient for them that Muslim terrorists seem to be the last to have received the memo.
“Thai tourist attacks probe points to Muslim south, say police,” AFP, August 22, 2016 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
BANGKOK, Aug 22 — Most of those behind a string of bombings in Thai tourist towns are Muslims from the kingdom’s insurgency-plagued southern provinces, the country’s police chief said today.
It was the first clear indication that police believe a group of southern Muslims played some sort of role in the attacks which killed four and wounded dozens, including European visitors, this month.
Police chief Chakthip Chaijinda told reporters investigators believe a group of “more than 20 people” were behind the coordinated attacks.
“Most of them are from the area of the southern border provinces police operation centre,” he said, referencing a policing area that encompasses the Muslim-majority southernmost region.
Asked whether the suspects were Thai nationals he replied: “They are not Buddhists.”
He added that investigators had recently searched an Islamic school where he believed some of the suspects had studied or graduated from.
More than 6,500 people, mostly civilians, have been killed in 12 years of violence between the Buddhist-majority state and shadowy ethnic Malay Muslim rebels seeking greater autonomy.
But the violence has largely remained local and foreign visitors are also largely insulated from domestic political clashes that have hit the capital.
That changed on August 11-12 when a string of coordinated bomb and arson attacks struck multiple tourist resort towns in Thailand’s south.
No one has claimed responsibility but authorities quickly ruled out international terrorism, saying the perpetrators were domestic….

The terrorist were not Buddhist. Surprise! They were secret Quakers, Mormons, Unitarians and Unity Students bonded together by their Zionist connections. Ha, ha. Anyway having lived in Thailand, a beautiful country, by saying that the Buddhists were not behind this, that is the Thai way of saying they were Muslims and being courteous about it. If an American was arrested for drugs, they would say: it was not a European!

What a surprise the terrorists weren’t Hindus, either. This makes it evident Islam hates all civilisations anything that is non-Islamic is their foe. Don’t forget muzzies extinguished Buddhism in India where it came from. Most Islamic terrorist attacks are against Western targets but here it’s the Buddhist culture they want to destroy, as they want to destroy or subdue everything non-Islamic in this world.
I know a Thai woman who works in a local supermarket, she told me the day of the attacks was mother’s day in Thailand. That reminds us of Nice where the attacks were on Bastille day the great French holiday. Muzzies like special days for their attacks, they like to pick domestic holidays. The only consequence for all of us victims is we have to stick together regardless what culture we’re from and fight against our common enemy, mankind’s enemy Islam.
Interestingly the famous French author Michel Houellebecq foresaw these attacks in his novel Plateforme which appeared in 2001 shortly before 9/11. Sometimes writers are far ahead of their time. He was reviled as an Islamophobe and even compared to Salman Rushdie a very stupid comparison as Houellebecq is a pure Westerner so his books are written from a Western point of view. Anyway he didn’t write anything against Islam until January 2015 when his last book Soumission appeared. Here he describes the submission of a French intellectual to Islam, a sad story of resignation. Our answer today has to be no, no, no to Islam as it’s incompatible with any culture. Together we can make it!

Maybe the Muslim Malays in southern Thailand would be happier in a Muslim country? You can move the border. Or you can move the people. Either solution works.
Jay Boo says
They are not Muslim
not true Muslims we are told
Why are terrorists not tossed out of Islam then?
Even the Boston bomber is still not booted out of Islam.
Why not?

“They are not Buddhists?” He really said that?
And I had presumed it was a group of Buddhist nuns gone berserk. Probably just people with a mental illness.

Saying by a Buddhist monk: “You can be full of love and kindness, but you can’t sleep next to a mad dog.”
Pretty much sums it up.

It’s difficult to understand a nāga without the concept of allegory, without the notion of class (lower, shudra, etc.), without the idea of esprit de corps, without thought of teamwork.
Here are some nice examples, probably each of which is Mucalinda:

“Buddha’s Nagas
According to the Vinaya or Buddhist Monastic Rule, an animal cannot become a monk. At one time, a Naga was so desirous of entering the Order that he assumed human form in order to be ordained.

Secular humanism, socialism, and a fetish for commerce are each fatal to Mucalinda.

Amazing how people are reduced to defining something by reference to what it’s not. How scared of these people are we? I’m concerned that amidst all the rediculous wordplay we’re forgetting that our enemy is fundamentally delusional. They believe things about reality which are patently untrue and in many cases are prepared to die for this erroneous belief. I think this should be emphasised more but many state run media groups would deem that “islamophobia”.
