The “separatist insurgency that has claimed about 7,000 lives” is actually an Islamic jihad; the Muslims in southern Thailand do not accept living under Infidel rule. How can “the most vile of created beings” (Qur’an 98:6) rule over the “best of people” (Qur’an 3:110)?
“Two Buddhist monks shot dead after suspected Muslim rebels storm Thai temple,” The Independent, January 19, 2019:
Two monks were killed and two others injured when gunmen presumed to be Muslim insurgents stormed a Buddhist temple in southern Thailand, police have said.
The attack in Narathiwat province on Friday night was the latest incident in a recent upsurge of violence in the area, which since 2004 has been plagued by a separatist insurgency that has claimed about 7,000 lives.
Narathiwat is one of Thailand’s three southernmost provinces, the only ones with Muslim majorities in the Buddhist-dominated country.
Witnesses described seeing armed men arrive at the temple on motorcycles, open fire with automatic weapons and then storm inside where they shot the monks in their quarters, according to a Thai news report. One of those killed was the temple’s abbot.
The temple attack was one of several violent incidents in Narathiwat on Friday, including a roadside bombing that wounded five members of security forces, and a shootout between paramilitary rangers and five armed men that left one of the gunmen dead. The others escaped….
mortimer says
Why would Muslims attack gentle, pacifist Buddhist monks, if Islam truly is PEACEFUL ???
Answer: Islam is protected by TERRORISM following the TERRORIST example of Mohammed who attacked his verbal critics.
Are Buddhist monks considered military SOLDIERS by Muslims? No Buddhist monks are considered VERBAL SOLDIERS fighting Islam, so it is PERMISSIBLE to kill them.
Isn’t ISLAMIC LOGIC absurd?
Mak says
In the mind of a leftist the Buddhists must have provoked the poor innocent moslems somehow. You know, the poor moslems are always being attacked by atheists, Hindus, Jews, Buddhists, Christians, and all other violent groups committing “islamophobia.”
Meanwhile, on planet Earth this is just mohammedians doing what they do.

What did the West do after the Buddhists in Myanmar fought back against the islamic jihadists known as “ARSA”?
The Myanmaris jihadists known as (ARSA) are getting support not only from muslims in Saudi Arabia, from oil-rich Arab Gulf states and from Malaysia and Indonesia but also they are getting a covert support from the CIA and MI6! As we speak, it is being reported that there are several thousand jihadists traveling from these same countries to the border area between Bangladesh and Myanmar and they are being trained by Al-Qaeda jihadist experts sponsored by the US, UK and Saudi Arabia!
Along side this, there is also a huge propaganda campaign against Myanmar and its state leaders and its Buddhist population! Myanmarese leader, Aung San Suu Kyi, a former “democratic” lioness for the Western Liberal establishment is constantly being demonized by the pro-islamist Western media and governments and NGO’s, scores of awards, ‘honorary’ degrees and citizenship accolades given previously to Aung San Suu Kyi by her former Western admirers are being revoked by the West and Myanmarese Buddhist leaders and Buddhist population are spoken about like they are worse than ISIS!
At this very moment, America and Nato are busy sanctioning Myanmar, which is a majority Buddhist nation for defending itself against jihadist Rohingyas while at the same time they are arming Rohingya jihadists known as (ARSA) to invade Myanmar and massacre Buddhists! There are even reports that the US government, especially the CIA is planning to covertly airlift ISIS and Al-Qaeda members into Myanmar to create chaos there and to slaughter the Buddhist majority there!

Concerning the primitive “mortimer” I think one needs to understand that he is not here to push back against jihad and jihadists but to filter out anyone he thinks is a long-term threat to his tribal turf and its agenda! He is especially very wary of thoseof us he deems to be are out spoken Christians which he clearly see as a dangerous threat to his tribal turf!
He actually suggested to me last year that I drop my (christianblood) screen moniker! Haha! I really don’t understand why that very simple and harmless screen moniker is a threat to his tribal turf or to his tribe! I would be happy if anyone shine light on this for all of us!

It is true that many in the West have foolishly accepted the idea that the Muslim Royhinga are simply victims.
But the claim that the West is waging violent Jihad against Myanmar is completely baseless. The article that christianblood links to doesn’t say any such thing, either.
gravenimage says
While I think Mortimer is far too optimistic about the possibility of “deprogramming” Muslims, he is an absolutely staunch Anti-Jihadist, and has been here for many years.
His suggesting that christianblood drop his moniker had *nothing* to do with Mortimer being anti-Christian–far from it. If I recall correctly–it’s been a while–this was because of christianblood’s support for Jihadists like Iran and Hizb’allah, and his apologia for their oppression of Christians.

Does any of this sound like someone who wants to see all Christians murdered? What utter crap.
And what is all this babbling about “tribes” and “Christ crucifyers”? This sounds like more of christianblood’s virulent antisemitism. He has said before how much he wants to see Israel destroyed by Muslims, and he often says “God bless Hezb’allah!”.

moslims can’t get along…be peaceful…with anyone. Once moslims reach a significant number in a country’s population, they are emboldened to do what they lust to do. moslims lust for blood, and when they have high enough numbers, weapons or “tools” they can use to kill, then kill they will. Cars, trucks, motorcycles, knives, guns, fire, bombs, whatever is handy is put to evil use.
No one is safe. No population is safe from moslim violence. All countries have communities of religious people…be they Jews, Christians, or in this case, Buddhists, in India, Hindus,… and moslims attack those who are living peacefully.
moslims cannot…because they follow the evil dictates of an unholy book…live peacefully with anyone, any where at any time. Their “god” is a murderous “god” and they must follow that one’s example and commands.

Muslims murder in the name of Islam every day, ginned up on sermons from the mosque from bloodthirsty perverted imams. So-called moderate Muslims stay silent because they are complicit. They give zakat to fund Islamic terrorism.
Islam is the primary source of world instability, poverty, injustice and violence, all for keeping the imams employed and sexed up with their dancing boys and simple women.
Anjuli Pandavar says
Niemoller,
“Muslims murder in the name of Islam”
—
Muslims do not murder “in the name of” Islam. They murder *in obedience to* Islam. Many times over, the Qur’an and the Hadith command them to murder. The whole “in the name of” formulation is propaganda advanced by so-called moderate Muslims to uncouple Islam from the murder it exhorts Muslims to.
Niemoller says
That’s a fair clarification, although I too meant that Muslims murder in obedience to Islam. Some people would say “murdering while Muslim” is stereotyping, since murders are also committed for non-religious reasons. We’re talking only about violence stemming from jihad and Muslim supremacy.
James Lincoln says
Anjuli,
You made a very important point, one that is often not clarified – likely intentionally – by the mainstream media.
The flipside of this is also interesting. Muslims who do not murder, or at least conduct stealth / soft jihad, are not being obedient to Islam. According to their faith, they would not be good Muslims.
Anjuli Pandavar says
“Muslims who do not murder, or at least conduct stealth / soft jihad, are not being obedient to Islam. According to their faith, they would not be good Muslims.”
—
Yes, agreed. And they often get murdered by those Muslims who “have the Qur’an in their hearts”, in other words, the real deal.
Carol the 1st says
Yes, good point. It is a sleight of hand. It seems to be the weak sisters who opt out of all the gory glory. We must wonder in awe if it’s from decency and compassion. Do muslims really have it all?
Anjuli Pandavar says
Carol the 1st,
That’s a good question. Muslims will hasten to tell you that one of the names of Allah is Ar-Rahim, “the Compassionate,” as in the common invocation “Bismillahi-rahmani-rahim”. However, this same compassionate Allah sends down a “book about which there is no doubt” containing 6,236 verses in his very own words, of which a grand total of 8 verses mention “compassion”. Of these eight, only one exhorts compassion towards others. In 17:24, Allah exhorts children to show compassion towards their parents. Yet, in 4:135, Allah exhorts those same children to, “uphold justice and bear witness to Allah, even if it is against… your parents…” In other words, snitch on your own parents and don’t worry about it because, the verse further assures them, “Allah can best take care of both.” But the clincher has to be the Shari’a provision that parents have the legal right to murder their children, no questions asked.
Yet the great store of Muslim compassion doesn’t end there. In disputes involving Muslims and infidels, Muslims are exhorted to be lenient towards Muslims and harsh towards infidels. When Allah, in his infallible Qur’an, commands Muslims to make sure that when dhimmis pay the jizya, they be made to “feel themselves subdued,” Muslim compassion ensures there is no mistake about what it means to “feel subdued”. Shari’a is also pretty clear about how Muslims are to deal with their own transgressors, especially those who “cause mischief in the land”. To get a sense of Shari’a, take a look at “Reliance of the Traveller” — Warning: not for the squeamish.
Niemoller says
Thailand should learn from China how to deal with Islam. China should be given the next Nobel Peace Prize for it’s humanitarian program to redeem the Uighur people from the criminal hands of the Islamists and jihadists who have “spread mischief in the land” and sniffled progress for centuries.
Niemoller says
*Stifled, lol, but maybe those repulsive murderous imams sniffle it too.
Anjuli Pandavar says
Sorry, Niemoller. I’m not trying to pick on you. But if the “Islamists and jihadists” are not Uighur, then who are they? This is Xinjiang we’re talking about here. It’s a pretty damn hard place to sneak into undetected.
Niemoller says
You’re right, that’s who I’m referring to–the Uighurs who are the most active and radical Muslims–they are Islamists and jihadists. Uighurs had a Buddhist culture before being violently converted by the sword to Islam, and they are still under physical threat by their own homegrown Islamists and jihadists. The Chinese are freeing the Uighur nation from mental and physical Islamic prison.
Anjuli Pandavar says
“The Chinese are freeing the Uighur nation from mental and physical Islamic prison.”
—
Agreed.
On a related point, some people say that the measures that the Chinese authorities are taking against the Uighur Muslims are extreme. This is true. The measures are extreme, because that’s exactly what it takes if Islam isn’t actively combatted early wherever it appears. The only way to avoid taking extreme measures against Islam is take those measures *early*, while Muslims are small in number and still “peaceful”. Extirpate Islam *while you still can*, else expect to have to take extreme measures. The only question for me is what the Chinese plan to do with the Hui, who are ethnic Chinese Muslims.
Carol the 1st says
Perhaps like Islam we must transcend the bounds of race, culture, language, country etc. and shove that damned book down the throat of anyone who suckles from it. In that way the world would cut its losses.
gravenimage says
Unfortunately, China has done its share of appeasing Muslims, as well–including exempting them from the “One Child Policy” and allowing them to carry knives–something denied to Han Chinese.
infidel says
All this leads to another ISLAMIC TRUISM from the annals of the infidel”
U need not insult the prophet or Islam or Muslims to make Muslims murderous at U. All of U have to do is peacefully go about Ur life as a Khafir and be devout in Ur own faith. And this alone is enough for the Muslim to get mad and murderous at U.
dan christensen says
“Narathiwat is one of Thailand’s three southernmost provinces, the only ones with Muslim majorities in the Buddhist-dominated country.”
Because Narathiwat has common border with islamic Malaysia, muslims in Thailand possess a safe haven, where the jihadis may rest and get ammo for next attack on Thailand.
This makes it clear for Europeans and Americans how important it is to prevent muslims in isolating themselves inside enclaves and ghettos. Islam can only take over a country, if a safe base nearby is at hand and ready to provide refuge for the jihadis. In both Sweden and France you can already watch, how fast the islamic enclaves are growing and how much the isolate themselves from the ‘dirty’ infidels.
The Thai govenment should copy the Myanmar officials – if Thailand want to survive the raging jihadi war.
Anjuli Pandavar says
DC,
“The Thai government should copy the Myanmar officials”
—
Agreed 100%, and then seal the border. The basic maxim is this: to try to live peacefully with Muslims is the signal to Muslims to not live peacefully with you. The longer the “peaceful coexistence” fiction is relied on, the harder it’s going to be to do what is necessary to restore peace and safeguard the non-Muslim population from jihad. I’d say Myanmar’s action came not a moment too soon. I expect they had intelligence that they were about to become the next Thailand, Kerala, Xinjiang, Mindanao, Kenya, etc., etc.

A pity PM Thaksin is no longer in power. When I lived in Thailand, he sent the troops to the three southern-most provinces whenever the muslims started attacks like this on monks and Thai citizens. He was ruthless & often condemned by world humanitarian groups. I remember him ordering 20-30 (?) militant muslims being thrown in the back of a big van — they all suffocated. Hat Yai, a city near Malaysian border, is a popular getaway for Malaysian muslims, who spend their time whoring, drinking and gambling.
infidel says
Please read the history of the ancient Nalanda University in India where intellectual greats from the Hindu and Buddhists converged to debate and interact and learn from each other in an aura of mutual respect. But then came Islam visiting in 1193 AD in the form of that barbaric Jehaadi called Bakhtyar and such devastation was witnessed like never before. All the ancient books and dried leaves containing valuable spiritual/scientific knowledge of these great Hindu/Buddhist ancients was put to the torch and the entire Uni was burnt down to ashes. Apparently, it took almost 9 months for the embers to die down and a huge pall of thick black smoke hung over the area for a long long time after that. Not only that, all the monks were either beheaded or burnt alive as per the fancy of this Koranimal Bhaktyar…… This was also one of the reasons why the East fell behind the West in terms of science. Had the knowledge of Nalanda were to be still be available, the East would have established a healthy lead over the West in terms of science and tech. Apparently, the monks pleaded with this Koranimal to at least spare the huge lib even if he had to kill them. But this animal ordered his beasts to spare only those books that was in agreement with that terror manual. Unfortunately, there was no such book in that mighty place of knowledge and hence all the knowledge went up in a pall of Jehaadi smoke of destruction and death.
infidel says
So is there any surprise as to what happened in Thailand???
Anjuli Pandavar says
I’m writing a novel in which one of my characters happens to be a guest of the Nalanda scholars when brother Bhaktiyar Muhammad Khilji comes calling. From her hiding place, she witnesses the Allah-pleasing slaughter and destruction, and loses her mind as a result. Yes, there’s the revulsion and horror of mass killing, but burning down a library is its own very special kind of sickness. Muslims have done this in Nalanda, in Alexandria, in Damascus and in every single Christian and Buddhist monastery they overran. So when contemporary Muslims boast about their great libraries in Baghdad, Qayrawan and Cordoba, one is to take such claims with a handful of salt. The same goes for the much-trumpeted Translation Movement, of which another character, the very last of the translators still hanging on in the face of the triumph of Muslim ignorance, writes in her notes, “The fundamental problem with the Translation Movement was its narrow concentration on practical matters to the complete exclusion of what the Romans called ‘artes liberales.’ By systematically discarding all works of Greek art, pottery, sculpture, drama, religion and literature, the Arabs merely managed to turn themselves into more indulgent savages. They had rendered themselves incapable of grasping what it means to be human and it comes as no surprise that the rising ulama could so easily convince them that their greatest philosophers were their greatest deceivers, and their most ignorant were their most trusted.”

Interesting how Muslims go to war against everyone: Buddhists, Jews, Christians, Hindus.
Could it be that the totalitarian theocratic expansionist program in the core Islamic texts is being followed? Could that be why Muslims cannot live at peace with anyone except those strong enough to force peace on a smaller Muslim minority?
Yes, many Muslims are only nominal and are unaware of and innocent of the totalitarianism of the core Islamic texts. But many Muslims are not innocent, and the Muslim leadership knows exactly what is going on and is not innocent.
Those who closely follow Muhammad and the Qur’an consider themselves, as the Qur’an puts it, the “best of peoples” and non-Muslims as the “worst of creatures.” So the imitators of Muhammad think they have a right to rule others and therefore continually seek to put others “in their place.” What that means is that if you dare to behave in every circumstance like an equal to a devout Muslim, but you are a non-Muslim, then you are deemed to have given offense. If the Muslims thus “offended” are strong enough to “teach you a lesson,” then you’ll get the kind of murderous behavior you are seeing in Thailand and Israel and everywhere else in the world that devout Muslims come into contact with the despised non-Muslim. For a non-Muslim to act like an equal provokes feels to the devout Muslim like a terrible insult. “How dare you act as though I’m equal to you, you worst of creatures!” I’ll teach you that you are lower than a cockroach or Sarsour.
eduardo odraude says
Besides the feeling of offense at unrecognized “superiority,” the other causes for the attacks by Muslims everywhere on non-Muslims are the commands in the Qur’an and Hadith to make war on non-Muslims and subjugate them under Islamic law. If a non-Muslim is willing to submit to Islamic law and live as an inferior with far fewer rights than Muslims, then Islam generally does not directly compel the non-Muslim to convert to Islam. In a society ruled by Islamic law or a strong Islamic ethos, the compulsion to become a Muslim may not be direct, but is nonetheless powerful, since as a non-Muslim one is treated as an inferior, and Muslims are often free to abuse non-Muslims and will face no consequences for doing so.
Dave says
If you voluntarily submit to Islam and become a Muslim then you pay Zakat. If you don’t, then you pay jizya.
LytchZam says
Why, we should help Thailand out then, and offer the Muslims – who will most certainly claim to the the actual victims – refuge in the US. Maybe in Boise, making yogurt – or give ’em a guaranteed income so they don’t even have to do that. Healthcare too. Why not? What could go wrong?

From the article – “The attack in Narathiwat province on Friday night …”.
FRIDAY. Of course. *The* preferred time for mohammedan mayhem. They attack at any time, of course, but they particularly like to do it on their “holy” day, Friday.
Memo to non-Islamic army and police force, in any country where there is a colony of the Mohammedan Mob established: WATCH the bastards at all times but be *especially* vigilant on Fridays; and make sure you keep a close and protective eye upon any potential ‘soft’ targets such as churches, synagogues, temples, monasteries, schools, anything in short that is of spiritual and/ or social-political significance to non-Muslims. Because Muslims target such places… as *these* murderous Muslims targeted a *temple*.
There were Muslims in Australia who got caught, a few years back, plotting to attack **Christmas midnight mass** at a Cathedral in Melbourne.
Muslims in Israel with guns and axes went into a synagogue and hacked to death the elderly and middle-aged men who were praying inside. Muslims in Israel went into a *torah school* and murdered the young defenceless scholars as they sat poring over their books. Islam seems to be all about ‘overkill’.. mob violence, and revelling in and celebrating and sacralising *absolute* and *obscene* cruelty, *especially* toward the defenceless; it’s revolting, disgusting, horrible.
And the more I see of these sorts of attacks, over and over and over and over (and many more and worse, throughout history) the more I hate Islam and the more I am convinced that, somehow, in our various countries, we have *got* to try to convince our authorities to put a total and permanent HALT to ALL immigration of Muslims… and expel all non-citizen Muslims already present.. .and figure out some way to strip citizenship from those who already possess it (a citizenship that we know they are bound, by their cult, to both despise and cynically make use of) and kick them out, back to the lands already 100 percent ruined and made desolate by Islam, the religion of blood and war.

The Barisan Revolusi Nasional Melayu Patani, also known by the shorter form Barisan Revolusi Nasional (BRN), meaning “National Revolutionary Front”, is a Patani independence movement in northern Malaysia and Patani, southern Thailand. As of 2017, it is the most powerful rebel group in the region.
It originated in 1948 as an ethnic and religious separatist insurgency in the historical Malay Patani Region, made up of the three southernmost provinces of Thailand and parts of a fourth, as well as Malaysian border regions, but has become more complex and increasingly violent since 2001. Incidents blamed on southern insurgents have occurred in government centers, including Bangkok, and are expanding into important tourist zones, like Phuket.
