Ghost Warriors - Thailand

August 2005
The Thai government blames Islamic separatists for rising tensions in the South. But police brutality is isolating the Muslim population.

Secret footage shows the police attacking unarmed protestors. Some were beaten so badly, their necks were broken. "Thai Muslims are treated differently to Thai Buddhists," complains one man. Every night, insurgents attack security posts and steal weapons. "They want to kill the Buddhists so that these provinces can be Muslim," explains village chief Boonserm Petchuan. The minority Buddhist population in the South feels abandoned. Everyone lives in fear of the insurgents. But no-one knows who's behind the uprising. Prime Minister Thaksin has ordered the army to be more aggressive in rooting out rebels. But a backlash could drive thousands more into insurgency

I was in thailand with my unit to train the thai army years ago, what we heard was that their was kidnapping, bombing and other things cause of muslim militia. I really couldn't believe that a country with nice people who would help you was having this problem. Really nice country, sad to see it ruined by internal conflict.

The pattani history have shown their soldiers are pious and very admire Allah. separatists actually got very high knowledge.. in terms of "invisible " knowledge and mostly they were helped by supreme power. something which is miracle and they will move only at night and they will never attack civillians and they will try to kill men in military as far as possible because they admire Allah and muhammad so much. thats why arab in mecca admire their ulama
