Is there no part of the world that Islamic fanaticism can’t ruin?

Japan’s done a good job keep’in the savages out.
Also, Antarctica, Greenland and The North pole seem safe for now.

You must be mistaken, friend. The BBC didn’t mention anything about Muslims or Islam in their article, only “insurgents.” Nothing to see here. These aren’t the droids you’re looking for.

Too bad. We stopped in Hua Hin after staying on a couple of islands in the Gulf of Thailand. Hua Hin was one of the king’s summer palace locations. Touristy, but in a pleasant way.

Muslims in the south like to behead Buddhists, and while the Thai cops and army can be tough, oftentimes the muzzies just cross the border into Malaysia.
