So there are killings in southern Thailand by Islamic terrorists. They're killing people who are trading on Fridays, their holy day. Here is how the Prime Minister of Thailand reacts: "Mr Thaksin's administration has battled the insurgency with a series of unusual measures, including dropping paper birds on the south, and this week, offering free cable TV in tea houses to act as a distraction." Now, maybe I'm naive, but I think that's beautiful, as opposed to making the whole area a war zone.
