Update on Islamic Atrocities Against Thai Schoolteachers
Around half of the 200 schools in this troubled southern border province will close indefinitely because teachers are intimidated by mob attacks like the kidnapping and beating of two female teachers last Friday. The despicable "ethnic cleansing" of Buddhists from three Southern Thai provinces contines - using the tactic of making it impossible for Buddhist children to pursue education Fearful teachers are demanding swift official action to arrest and punish the offenders and provide effective security on campuses and in their classrooms. Acting Prime Minister Chidchai Wannasathit said today that last Friday's brutality had raised the stakes. Insurgents have raised the gravity of their self-styled rebellion, he said, and that makes necessary a more serious government response. The next step calls for the use of psychological operation in conjunction with more stringent law enforcement and more inclusive security measures, he said. However, he provided no actual details. Army Commander in Chief Gen Sondhi Boonyaratglin, the first Muslim to command the military, assigned more security forces to work with teachers and students. He said the security forces needed better intelligence gathering. Note that the Thais have gone so far as to put a Muslim General in charge of their Armed Forces
The "Lions of Islam" should be very proud - 55 ordinary schoolteachers gunned down - they were obviously a mortal threat to Islam
Chairman Boonsom Tongsriplai of Pattani Teachers' Federation said that Friday's incident, in which two women elementary school teachers were taken hostage in Rangae district of Narathiwat, had hurt the morale of every teacher in the South, and across the country, because the villagers who took the teachers hostage also knew them very well. They were supposed to be their friends and neighbours, the mothers and fathers of their students, and vice-versa, the teachers on their children. This part reflects the civilized perspective - the Muslim perspective is simply that if you are not one of us, you are an oxygen thief who deserves either to be slaughtered, or enslaved The hostage-taking, and subsequent brutal beating of the two young women, threatens the heart of teacher-community trust not only in Narathiwat, but around the country. Teachers are praying for the two victims to recover quickly, Mr. Boonsom said, and that attacks on teachers in the three troubled southern border provinces of Pattani, Narathiwat and Yala should stop. Director Pairuj Saengthong of the Narathiwat Office of Education Zone 1 said Friday's hostage-taking incident had impacted the morale of schoolteachers in the three southernmost provinces of Narathiwat, Pattani and Yala and about 100 of the 199 schools under the Office's jurisdiction would be closed "for an indefinite period" effective immediately. Mr Pairuj said the schools would reopen if officials could comply with three demands submitted by his office: - apprehending and punishing those who had attacked the two teachers;He visited Juling Pongkunmul, one of the two teachers rescued from angry mobs, and still in a coma. Ms Juling, according to the director of Songkhla Nakarin Hospital, remained unconscious Sunday morning. Doctors had connected her with a respirator life-support system and medications to control her blood pressure. It is unknown when, or if, she will regain consciousness. Meanwhile, Education Minister Chaturon Chaisang admitted that security measures provided for teachers in the South lax and needed an overhaul. He said there was a need to procure equipment to boost security for the teachers. Mr Chaturon said he would consult with related security officials on tightening security for the teachers. Extra budget for the schools in the area must be given for erecting fences, purchasing cars and increasing the number of guards at schools. Praising teachers in the region for their patience despite risks, Mr Chaturon said he hoped the majority of teachers would continue teaching. At the same time he agreed to help "those who were in real trouble" and wanted to transfer elsewhere. For all of my adult life, I have generally started each day by reviewing the world news of the last 24 hours. I remember a decade of reading about IRA attacks in Belfast and Londenderry. Another decade plus of reading about the perpetual violence in Beirut. A lifetime of reading about Palestinian violence against Israel. Five years of reading about ethnic violence in the Balkans. These were always tragic sagas - but they were localized, inolving nothing that directly threatened the entire western world. Well, these days, I simply think of the daily morning ritual as being the cataloging of the last 24 hours worth of Muslim atrocities and outrages around the world - categorized into atrocities in my country of residence, then in my region of residence, then on each separate continent. I've written off Europe - it is utterly doomed by demographic Islamicization, and if the parents of European teenage girls being systematically gang-raped by Muslim cretins - in geometrically rising numbers - can't inpsire a meaningful backlash, then Eurabia is a foregone conclusion. I've seen Kudzu take over the Southeastern USA, zerbra mussels foul the waterways of America, and cane toads take over sections of Australia - and I'm now watching the Muslim pestilence infect the world in a way that is a direct and imminent threat to me and everyone like me. Nothing - NOTHING - in my 50 years has ever awakened my utter hostility toward human beings like this. Posted by: Lone Ranger 2006-05-22 |
