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.

If it's not already linked in your collection somewhere do a google on "The age of Muslim wars". There's a time article that points out just how many wars they have started recently.

Thanks- there's a ton of info; much redundant, but the picture it paints should disabuse all but the most intransigent of the idea that the problem is localized or can be ignored. Or turned over to those dictator and terrorist enablers, the UN.

"It seems to be getting worse all the time."

You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet! If liberals continue to divide for the purpose of getting power this country and it's citizens are in for some major surprises. I'll take all bets!

I didn't know that. Thanks for giving us a more full picture of the Islamofreaks' savagery.

Can you imagine the outcry from our own home-grown seditionists (the Leftist media, Hollyweird, etc. - heck, even Little Ronnie Reagan) if a modern-day general would issue such orders? Sometimes I almost wish the anthrax attacker had succeeded in infecting Tom, Peter, Dan, Leahy and Daschle. (Meant largely with tongue in cheek, although I'd be lying if I didn't say a small, dark part of me means it.)

ONCE AGAIN, the ugly face of Islam has been exposed to the world.

Not only are Christians and Jews targets of their insanity, but Buddhists, Hindus, Sikhs, Zoroastrians, animists, in short ANYONE who is not Islamic.

And being Islamic alone is not enough as recent news and past history has shown.

When the Wahhabists took over already Islamic Saudi Arabia in the 1800's with their most virulent and intolerant beliefs, they massacred MILLIONS of non-Wahhabist Muslims, including Sufis.

In Algeria we have seen entire villages of Muslims wiped out by other Muslims. In southern Sudan, there was a recent posting of Arabic Muslims attacking and destroying black Muslims and eliminating their entire villages.

Unless and if a sizable number of Muslims rise up and put an end to this nonesense themselves, the entire world will grow weary of this behavior and unite to totally destroy this belief system and those who insist on practising it.

This Buddhist beheading is clearly the fault of G. Bush and his policies.

"You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet!"

You couldn't be more right. I fear that we need to brace ourselves for something catastrophic. Something in a biblical scale.

There you go. This crime should serve as a wake-up call to those in our country who argue that Islamic terrorist acts against America are our own fault, because we "meddled" in Middle Eastern affairs, because we "provoked" the Arabs, because we support Israel, blah, blah, blah.

What did this poor Thai Buddhist soul do to incur the Islamists' wrath?

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

No, the time will have come when one or more of these beheadings happen in Anytown, USofA. Only then will the sheep wake up and realize (a) who the enemy really is, and (b) that he is at your gate--literally.

You are 100% right.
And in your neighborhood, and in your convenience stores, and in the mosques in your town.
And THEN what will we be prepared to do?

Jesus loves you. Allah wants you dead.

The battle cry is "DEATH TO THE INFIDELS!", infidels being anyone who isn't Muslim.

Got that right. It's truly a global threat, like none we have ever faced. It's times like this when actions certainly speak louder than words.

The spokesman who gave the press conference at the Saudi Arabian embassy in Washington about an hour ago seemed truly shaken to his core. But that's not enough. As you say, a sizable number of Muslims must rise up.

For muslisms it is a war on all that is not muslim--for liberals in the USA it is a holy-war on Christians, thus the demoncRATs are not unsympathetic to the Islamofascists.
