Buddhist woman burned alive in Muslim south Thailand

Muslims getting more and more violent to others? Might be time to be more violent towards them!

Reuters AlertNet - Buddhist woman burned alive in Muslim south Thailand: "A Buddhist woman was shot and burned alive in Thailand's violence-torn Muslim-majority south on Wednesday, prompting angry protests in front of visiting army chief Sonthi Boonyaratglin.

Watcharaporn Boonmak, 26, was ambushed by gunmen as she rode her motorcycle through a Muslim village in Yala, one of the three southern provinces roiled by three years of separatist insurgency in which more than 2,000 people have been killed.

'She might have been shot in the stomach before they set fire to her and her motorcycle,' a Yala police officer, who asked to remain anonymous, told Reuters by telephone.

One of her relatives told Reuters that witnesses at the scene heard Watcharaporn, a garage clerk, screaming and crawling along the road for help but nobody dared respond for fear of reprisals."
