So, how long before the military remove this guy and put in someone who can actually do something about the terrorists<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Five people have been killed by suspected Islamic separatists in Thailand’s deep south, as some schools reopened for the first time in a week after a wave of arson and bombings.
\nA 32-year-old Muslim man and his three-year-old daughter<\/span> were killed after a shooting in Yala province, apparently because insurgents believed he was a government informant, police said Monday. The father died at the scene and the girl died later in hospital.
\nTwo others were killed in neighboring Pattani province — a 51-year-old rubber tapper was shot in a drive-by and a policeman was shot while guarding a branch of the Thai Military Bank, police said.
\nIn Narathiwat province, a 44-year-old Muslim woman was also killed in a drive-by shooting as she left a morning market, police added.
\n[…]
\nNearly 1,000 schools in Narathiwat, Pattani and Yala were closed all last week after a wave of attacks in which militants torched and bombed school buildings and killed teachers across the region.
\nThe government said it had boosted security around the schools, but many remained closed after an elementary school principal was killed and two more schools were torched over the weekend.
\nViolence has intensified in the past month despite moves by Thailand’s post-coup government to forge peace in the region.
\nMilitary-installed Prime Minister Surayud Chulanont on Monday met with top security officials in Bangkok about the escalating unrest, but insisted on sticking to his policy of reconciliation<\/span>.
\nGovernment spokesman Yongyuth Mayalarp said the army had redeployed forces in the region to cope with the unrest, but did not say how many troops were there.
\n“The prime minister reiterated that his peaceful approach is on the right track and will continue with his policy,” Yongyuth said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\nThey don’t appear to want to be reconciled, they appear to want to win. Why would you want to reconcile with men who are mass murders? Shouldn’t you be arresting them instead?
\nI wonder if Annan is going to speak out against this violence. I don’t think the people are better off now than when they installed the Prime Minister so maybe it’s time the UN makes a pronouncement about the situation.<\/p>\n
