| 2004-01-07 | |
Two policemen were injured during a gun attack by assailants on a police station in Thailand's Muslim-majority south early on Wednesday in the latest assault in the restive region, security officials said. Aiyaweng police station in Yala province's Betong district came under attack by more than ten assailants after receiving a phone call informing police of a fire at a nearby bridge in order to lure police outside, Major Jiarapan Kasemsansuk, told AFP. "They attacked the police station in Aiyaweng area of Betong district for about 30 minutes," he said. A policeman at the station told AFP the attackers used M-16 rifles and said two policemen were slightly injured by pieces of shattered cement during the firefight. "Police are now in hot pursuit of the attackers," he said.

| #2 Remember al-Qaeda's jihad-fatwah against "Jews and Crusaders?" I am of the opinion that a majority of Muslims are abiding by same if only by financing terror. |

| #1 Wherever followers of the 'religion of peace'go they bring trouble with them. I've just returned from a trip to central Thailand. The Thai people (at least the ones I saw in the streets) are very gentle, kind and peaceful. Its a lovely country. I really hope that the people in power kick some muslim ass before it becomes too late for them. while "Frawnce" is a lost case with Sharia expected to inevitably kick in within 10-20 years, maybe with Thailand there is still hope if they act quickly and decisively. |
