Jihadis strike karaoke lounges in southern Thailand
2006-11-05
Six people, including two police officers and four civilians, were wounded as bomb explosions tore through two karaoke lounges in a hotbed of the Muslim insurgency in southern Thailand, police said Sunday.

The homemade bombs exploded within minutes of each other Saturday night at lounges in Tak Bai district of Narathiwat province, scene of an anti-government rally two years ago in which 85 Muslim protesters died at the hands of security forces, said police Lt. Thepsin Sahadhud. Police rushed to the scenes of the explosions when another homemade bomb planted on the roadside exploded, Thepsin said. "The third bomb was apparently targeted at police, but fortunately no one was injured from the third bomb," he said.

One bomb was hidden under a sofa in the James Bond lounge, shaking, not stirring injuring two police officers, while the second went off at the Regency Karaoke lounge, located about 50 meters (yards) away, police said. Four persons were hurt in the second lounge.

In a separate incident late Saturday, Doming Mudo, 45, a local administration official, was shot dead in Pattani province, said police Col. Somchit Nasomyon.

#9  Like Frank says; For every one of these attacks just off an imam or cleric and watch them come to a seething screeching halt.

#8  The key word isn't "karaoke", but "lounge". Wanna bet there were men and women in the same room? And that alcohol was served? Maybe even some pork products?

#7  Ah sp, "religion" my bad. How about the death cult of Muhamhead.

It would be interesting to see the historical movement. Just how the hell did Thailand end up with Muslimes? With the bloody history of India and Islam one might think Thailand might have taken note.

But then there is London, Paris and shaking my head, the USA. The disease spreads where ignorace is confused with tolerance.
