There has been a coordinated mass casualty attack in Thailand, with aspects eerily similar to the 1993 World Trade Center attack.

“The Jihad in southern Thailand took a major turn for the worse overnight when the Jihadists detonated 3 car bombs and 1 motorcycle bomb, killing 14 and wounding 340.”

I heard it mentioned briefly earlier. It’s the weekend, so it’s not being covered.

But neither Thailand nor Europe are the big prizes for Islam — the ultimate prize is America.

It will take a little longer but the progress is more rapid than it appears.

No doubt this attack occurred because of US support for Israel. At least that’s what Ron Paul will say...

I think these are the three reported earlier. People are demanding that the government stop putting the stories of Islamist attacks buried in the middle of the newspapers. Others are demanding that the government get some help from Israel, the UK or America if they are willing. Israel has very good relations with Thailand.

A lot of people wonder if Iran has something do do with this escalation. Me too. We talked to my wife’s cousin a little while ago. She has never had much use for Muslims and is beside herself with anger. She doesn’t like the current government although she used to like the PM. Now a lot of people are willing to take a temporary hit with lower tourism to get rid od the terrorists. All our relatives are either Christian or Buddhist but have traditionally had good relations with the northern Muslims. That may be a thing of the past unfortunately.

Sorry, I didn’t complete my thought. The cousin we called has a son and DIL who worked a couple of years as teachers in the South but left after their school was burnt down and they were threatened. There have been dozens of schools burned by the Islamist who want nothing but Islamic schools and won’t let their kids learn Thai. Quite a few school guards and teachers have been killed.

The three provences that are majority Muslim are the three most southern. In the North, the Muslim college students and teens from Muslim enclaves do some protesting and “menacing” but that’s all so far.
