I'm channel hopping and see CNN is just flat out confused and stuned on who might be responsible for the bomb.

Thailand has a big problem with Muslims in its southern areas, which border Muslim Malaysia. There’s some offshore oil there, which Malaysia probably wants.

Bangkok?
I expect Obama will issue a statement that it’s a home-grown terrorist, and not Islamic.
No one would have asked him, but he’s just trying to be fair.

Same as the US did after 9/11 So their PM is going to come out and declare Islam a religion of peace? And import a couple million of the lowest, least educated from the Muslim world? That was pretty much the USA's response...
