40 bombs hit Thailand's Muslim south
2006-08-02
NARATHIWAT: A wave of 40 coordinated bomb and arson attacks struck government and civilian targets across Thailand's Muslim-majority south late on Tuesday, injuring at least two, officials said. Homemade devices, many triggered by remote-control, hit the homes of police and government officials, karaoke bars and a train station in the three restive provinces along the Malaysian border. It was the largest and best organised attack in more than a month in the south, where 1,400 people have died over the past two years in attacks blamed mainly on Islamic militant separatists.

Oh well, they're certainly not going to blame Franciscan monks.
