If the Thai government entered into realistic negotiations all this could be avoided.

Fail to see anywhere on the planet where there has been any successful negotiations with members of this cult that has not led to even more death and destruction and more ongoing islamic extremism with sharia law in a country.

If sharia law is what the people want, isn't that what they should get?

Let the Malay muslims govern themselves instead of holding on to the idea that Bangkok controls every corner of the country. But as Bangkok won't allow any autonomy, this conflict will continue indefinitely. There's a new juwae (fighter) born every minute in the south. No military force can ever stomp that out.

That would be 2 separate legal systems in one country.  One barbaric and one corrupt.  It's sure to work.  ????
