‘Doesn’t Matter If You’re Black or White Bangkok media is so stupid. They thought overthrowing Thaksin would help things in the South. Nope. Surprise, surprise. Muslim insurgents are still bombing civilians.
It doesn’t matter if you’re black or white. If you’re the wrong religion, you are the infidel.
It doesn’t matter who is “negotiating” with the Muslim separatists. Until you hand over the southern part of the country, they will not stop.Every Bangkok newspaper (and they’re all from Bangkok, anyway) thinks it won’t go to the cities, if you just “negotiate” with them peacefully. Negotiations don’t always work, people. You have to have someone to negotiate with. They don’t want negotiation. They want surrender. Is that too hard for ivy-league educated snots to understand?
If Bangkok yuppies refuse to protect people in Yala and Songkhla, there will be no buffer left to protect them. And those poor European teenagers who go to Ko Samui and Phuket for holiday will have to find another place to get high and go snorkling.

Bombing on October 23, 2006 — even *after* the coup, imagine that. . . .
