Three more dead in the south Thailand jihad.

NARATHIWAT, Thailand (AFP) - Three people, including a soldier, were shot dead by suspected militants in separate attacks in Thailand’s restive Muslim-majority south, police said Saturday.

A 22-year-old soldier was gunned down in an ambush Saturday in Pattani, one of three troubled provinces bordering Malaysia, and a 22-year-old university student was killed in a drive-by shooting in the province in the afternoon.

In nearby Narathiwat, a 43-year-old Muslim man was shot dead late Friday while walking.

More than 2,500 people have been killed since the insurgency broke out in the region in January 2004.

Ever try to have a conversation with someone on drugs? It just doesn't work... -- Sometime during the summer of 1987, when asked by a DC reporter, "what are your feelings on the war on drugs?" His first response was to criticize the inherent invasion of privacy, followed by the above statement against drug use.
