THE FOLLY OF THAI DHIMMITUDE: TAB SCOOPS LGF BY 17 DAYS

LGF reported today on a few jihadist attacks in south Thailand - following the junta's gesture of appeasement - and argued that these attacks prove once again that appeasement doesn't work. LGF is of course 100% right, but Charles is also 17 days late: TAB reported this on 10/18, as advance word of the juntas appeasement was leaked - and praised by Left-wing NGO's.

And 2 days ago we commented on the junta's move to allow sharia, and on on the central flaw in the junta's rationalization for their appeasment: the Thai junta - like most Leftists - expressed their contention that the current jihad was a response to alienation felt by the Muslims. In fact, the jihadists - from southern Thailand to the suburban slums of Paris - WANT to be alienated from the West and want to live in under sharia. IOW: They don't want to be better integrated into the West; they want the West to conform to their jihadism. And this is why ALL accommodationist polices are doomed to failure.

REMEMBER: LGF is GRRRREAT! But, TAB is often faster on the news and better on the analysis and commentary. Spread the word.
