Since 2004 4000 have died at the hands of Muslim in the south of Thailand, bombings, beheading, ambushes and drive by shooting. There primary targets are teachers and Buddhists in there war against Thai society. You see A little over a century ago Thailand annexed this area and now the Muslim have decided they want it to once again to be Muslim for Muslim.
Now the US is coming in with a program to help the improve the young Muslin's self image and with the idea that then they will see the error in there ways and stop killing people.
OK, maybe this is a good investment of time and money but I'm thinking we shouldn't be messing in another country's problems and hey, couldn't we put that money to use at home. After all, maybe I'm the only one to notice but the US isn't doing so hot in dealing with Muslim's in Iraq and Afghanistan and Iran so what the hell are we doing messing around in the south of Thailand.
Probably won't know for a long while how this program will work out, maybe then extend it to the Philippians, Somalia and parts of Europe. American's really don't need Social Security, Medicare or the country's deteriorating infrastructure fixed.
Meanwhile, Muslim terrorists are bombing, kidnapping and pretty much doing what ever they please. America's money that could have went to finance Social Security and Medicare, and hey how about New Orleans we still haven't got that fixed, will be used to help a group of terrorists with there anger issues.
I'm thinking they won and the US goverment just don't know it yet.
