Muslims in Thailand behead a 63-yr-old Buddhist! Still don't think we're in a World War?

BANGKOK, May 29 (AFP) - Assailants decapitated an elderly Buddhist in Thailand's Muslim south Saturday and vowed more such killings if Muslims continued to be arrested for the months-long unrest in the region, police said.

It was the first decapitation in the violence, which has claimed some 190 lives since January, police said.

Sieng Patkaoe, 63, was attacked by men with machetes early Saturday as he tapped rubber trees on his plantation in the southern province of Narathiwat, district police said.

Sieng's severed head was left along a village road. His body, found some 60 metres (yards) away, had a note pinned to it threatening more killings, police said.

"If innocent Malayu (the predominant ethnic group in the Muslim south) continue to be arrested, we will murder more Buddhists," police quoted the note as saying. It was written in Thai and printed by computer, they said.

The victim had no conflict with neighbours, police said.

The killing marks a new level of brutality in the violence, mainly blamed on Muslim separatists, that has plagued southern Thailand this year.

As President Bush has tried to make clear, this may not be a war with traditional armies arrayed against one another, but it is a war nonetheless. Those who stll don't get it that we are in a very real, very hot world war — albeit different from earlier wars — are woefully misunformed.

The followers of Islam have provent it to be nothing more than a violent cult.

The time has come to eradicate the threat to the rest of the peace loving world.

Murder by beheading is spreading to the United States. Also on May 29, the following story broke from Baltimore, MD. Here's the online link.

BALTIMORE, Maryland (AP) -- Two young men were arrested on murder charges Friday in the gruesome slayings of three younger relatives in an apartment. One was beheaded with a butcher knife, the others were nearly decapitated, police said.

Police said the two men are cousins, but the Mexican government identified Policarpio Espinoza, 22, as the children's uncle and Adan Espinoza Canela, 17, as their cousin.

Investigators said they did not know the motive for the killings, and they did not disclose how they connected the suspects to the crime.

The children were identified by the principal at their school as 9-year-old Ricardo Espinoza; his 9-year-old sister, Lucero Quezada; and their 10-year-old cousin Alexis Quezada, a boy.

The bodies were found in two bedrooms of the first-floor apartment. Police found a butcher knife near the apartment and said they believe it was used in the killings.

A relative said the family was originally from Mexico and moved from New York to Baltimore about three years ago. The relative said the family owns a food business.

The Mexican government's Foreign Relations Department said the children's parents -- Ricardo Espinoza, Mimi Quezada and Maria Andrea Espejo -- were undocumented immigrants. It wasn't known who the parents were of each child. The children were born in Mexico.

Assailants decapitated an elderly Buddhist in Thailand's Muslim south Saturday

It's not a holy war on Christianity or America, it's a holy war on non-Islam. They won't stop until they've got it all.

Solve the problem?

Kill on sight any Muslim carrying a weapon, especially a knife.

If they want to die, I say let's help them meet their goal.

Hire Saddam Hussein as a consultant.

He killed his enemies only after making them watch their families die first!

I'm not blood thirsty, just mad as hell and ready for action.

You catch them, I'll kill them!!

At least we'll have the lib wimps to use as human shields. Micky Moore would make a hell of a shield to shoot over.

You're absolutely right. The battle cry is "DEATH TO THE INFIDELS!", infidels being anyone who isn't Muslim. It seems to be getting worse all the time.

I agree with you in every particular except that it's not a "holy" war no matter what the Islamofreaks call it. It's a savage, barbaric, mindless, UNHOLY war.

Wouldn't want to be the first to arm myself, but I sure wouldn't want to be the last to do so.

Doesn't sound like the innocent Malayu are so innocent after all, does it?

This is even worse than it sounds. Many people in Thailand become monks not out of religeous duty but because they're destitute and it's a good way to earn a meal and a safe place to sleep each day.

Actually, General 'Blackjack' Pershing knew how to deal with Muslims: during the occupation of the Phillipines in the early 20th century, he had over 100 Muslim terrorists executed and buried in pigskin. The Phillipines had no problem with Muslims until the recent outbreak.

"The followers of Islam have provent it to be nothing more than a violent cult. "

Gen 16:10 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, I will multiply thy seed exceedingly, that it shall not be numbered for multitude. 11 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Behold, thou art with child and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the LORD hath heard thy affliction. 12 And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.

Ishmael's descent Mohammed started Islam and fulfilled the prophecy to a tee.
