ThailandMysteries Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 For those posts advocating the forcible relocation of the approximately 1.8 million Thai Muslim population across the border to Malaysia do you not think that this will possibly trigger an armed conflict between the nations involved and any possibility of reaching a peaceful politically negotiated resolution to grievances nullified. On the other side of the coin the resultant resentment by the Thai Muslims from being forced from their homeland will only significantly escalate the level of violent attacks in the region in the years to come. In today's news there is a glimmer of hope for the commencement of a lasting solution with a number of "insurgents" giving up on their campaign of violence, this was linked to assistance being provided to them by the Thai authorities. The Indonesian resolution of the armed conflict in Ache could be a useful model for negotiations. People on TV occasionally reference the Troubles in Northern Ireland that were finalised by political negotiation. Some of the leaders of the Provisional IRA terrorist group, such as Martin McGuinness, are now accepted mainstream politicians in Northern Ireland. Negotiation is the way forward (carrot and stick), not actions that will only increase hostility. The Indonesian resolution of the armed conflict in Ache Ache => ACEH. Maybe your wrist was "aching" when you wrote this. Too much time at the keyboard! I get horrible neck aches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The numbers quoted are gross exaggerations, but the message is OK. As a bit of balance the atomic bombing in Japan are estimated to have "saved" millions from being killed if the Allies had invaded the Home Islands. BTW as a bit of detail, the Arabs in Africa were involved in the slave trade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
