Either the fault of George Bush or US Imperialism</sarcasm> Four soldiers, teacher killed in Thai Muslim south 27 Sep 2005 10:19:23 GMT Source: Reuters alertnet.org BANGKOK, Sept 27 (Reuters) - Four Thai soldiers and a teacher were killed by suspected militants in Thailand's restive Muslim south where nearly 900 people have been killed in 21 months of violence, police said on Tuesday. The soldiers, riding on two motorcycles, were shot dead by militants armed with pistols and AK-47 assault rifles near a school in Yala, one of three troubled provinces bordering Malaysia. "There was an ambush about 500 metres from the school. The militants sprayed bullets from the jungle and all four died at the scene," Police Lieutenant-Colonel Mustopa Mani told Reuters. In a separate incident, a teacher was shot dead in his car in the province of Pattani. Teachers are often targeted by insurgents as symbols of government authority. Separatist unrest has gripped the predominately Muslim region since January 2004 and analysts feared more blood-letting after Muslim youths brutally murdered two Thai marines last week. Security forces have arrested four people in connection with the murders of the Thai marines, who were held bound and blindfolded overnight by villagers suspecting they were members of a government death squad. The government denies any such groups operate in the region, an independent sultanate until formally annexed a century ago.
