#2 You think this is the big start in SE Asia PanMan? This is a fairly large unhappy number.

#3 10 Thai soldiers killed. I wonder how long the current Thai Muslim general has before he loses his head. I mean head position.

#4 I wonder how long the current Thai Muslim general has before he loses his head.

It's pretty clear that he is part of the problem.

#5 Ship, I think this Thai muzzie problem will grow over the next 3 to 5 years until it is not manageable by the Thai government. Once we go in to help, like we did in the PI, it will migrate to Cambodia. The Thai government cares little about what is going on down South, as long as it stays out of Bangkok. This whole process the Muslims are using is almost a template of what has happened in other countries. To answer more directly, no, I don't believe it is the next big war. The Asian coastline is largely muslim, their slow revolt will gain some momentum and we will end up spending a large amount of resources helping these governments to recover. I just wish they would get ahead of this and do something before it becomes unmanageable.
