NoBrainer Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Good for them. Very unusual for Thai People to think very far ahead, about the consequences of their actions today. Maybe others can learn from these people about foresight. This plague is spreading far too fast, and unless it is contained quickly, the human race will be doomed.

laislica Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Enough please! I know Thailand to be dangerous and I have been scared to return for a half year holiday since before the Coup. Now you want to scare me more? Maybe my wife returns for a while each year and I stay in the relative safety of my small corner of Spain that no one really knows about?????

OK for the Muslim, it's a religion and their God is perhaps Muhammad and his writings in the Koran? However, I understood that Buddha said follow me, live like me but don't worship me, not raise statues and the like, live simply and take care of the planet and everyone on it. So not a religion then. Things evolve and IMHO, Thia Buddhism is about Good Luck, Making Merit, still not a religion. So what is this really all about? Confused, as ever.....

koolkarl Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 This is a war of religion. Muslims cannot win conventional warfare so resort to terrorism. They want the whole world to covert to Islam and if not, you are an infidel and must be eliminated, as stated in their Koran. Their plan is to have as many kids as possible and eventually form their own political party and take over a country that way. Never hear of terrorist incidents in Japan as Japan won't let Muslims immigrate. The ones that are there are not allowed to congregate or practice their religion publicly or they will be deported. Canada is the opposite as they only care if you are breathing so they can pay their onerous taxes and Canada is doomed as far as I am concerned.

So it is more than OK to condemn oppression of non-Muslims in Saudi Arabia (or even Muslim oppression of other Muslims), genocide of Muslim Rohingya in mostly Buddhist Myanmar, extremist Christian motivated right wing terrorism in the USA, the occupation of the west bank by the Jewish state of Israel, etc. But Muslims when they are a minority really do get an unfair bad rap. Moving against them too harshly only fuels more of them to get involved with radical violent dogmas. It doesn't have to be that way in Thailand. I suggest the Thai government get involved in an early educational requirement to teach peaceful coexistence and tolerance of different religions and races to very young children. That's a good start anyway. Muslims are taught in their holy book that it is their duty to spread their submissive beliefs by all means possible specifically including deception and deceit, driven by a lack of tolerance for non-believers, and not to stop until the whole of humanity is under its yoke. Peaceful coexistence and tolerance cannot exist as a status quo because it would be the duty of muslims to change it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orton Rd Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Phobia is an irrational fear. Being afraid of a religion whose holy book states you should be killed as an unbeliever is completely rational, especially as so many of it's followers take it so seriously.

Peaceful coexistence and tolerance cannot exist as a status quo because it would be the duty of muslims to change it. Even if that's actually true (which I'm not personally interested or knowledgeable about in arguing and seems way beyond the scope of this topic anyway), you're forgetting a very important point. A Muslim identified person would need to be believe the texts in a fundamentalist way and interpret it in the very toxic way you suggest is true and be so uninfluenced by his national culture or more secularist, common sense reasonable feelings as to become a real threat. I submit the real threat of such texts is wildly exaggerated. Speaking as a totally secular Jew, I often hear somewhat similar hate speech messages about ancient Jewish holy texts. Yet actual Jewish people that believe such texts in a fundamentalist way and act out in real life based on that interpretation are rare. There are also Christian texts that when viewed in a fundamentalist way and interpreted in certain ways, and acted upon, are also extremely toxic. Let's not scapegoat Muslims only for having ancient texts that don't translate so well to modern life. Edited October 2, 2017 by Jingthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They (moslims) and only they stand in the way as they think they have the one and only religion and all heretics must repent/convert or else....The Koran says so and a good moslim obeys the Koran. The 5th column everywhere so why not in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chivo Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 This is a tough one. While we know it is not accurate nor fair to judge an entire race or religion on the actions of some of its members, let's not forget what has been the Thai experience with how islam expresses itself. Muslims in the south have been blowing up Thai Buddhist monks. Actively and specifically seeking out pacifist Buddhist monks and killing them! Also they have targeted school teachers and killed them! And the message the southern muslim population chose to put forth regarding this: a complaint that Thai soldiers don't smile around them (previous news article). Well, I ask, what is there to smile about? So What we have here is a Thai population recognizing a threat and since they don't live in an overly political correct world they can bring it up. What has the sane portion of the muslim community done to denounce/limit the actions of the violent members of their tribe??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timebandit Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Islam is not only a religion but an entire life controlling culture. They are taught by the koran to murder innocent people and it is happening weekly in Europe. Open your eyes. China has my respect for dealing with this menace early. Thailand should do the same. Don't bring your stupid liberal beliefs here. If you think that way, go back to Europe where you belong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read that they are forcing muzzlims there to turn in their korans and prayer mats. Was wondering if its fake news as I don't hear the usual uproar. Guess no one wants to upset the Chinese for their great contribution to global commerce and economic progress. One reason is if they don't do what they are told they execute them, no stuffing around, like the old wild west days you got till high noon to leave town, no joke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
