Having failed to quell months of escalating unrest in three southern
provinces by force, Thailand's unorthodox prime minister is hoping
plane loads of origami peace bombs will defuse the tension.
Thaksin Shinawatra has urged all 63 million Thais to make at least one
paper bird in the next fortnight so they can be dropped on the three
restive provinces on December 5 as a sign of goodwill to mark King
Bhumibol Adulyadej's birthday.

Correct. There is only one tiny little problem: the muslims in the
South do not recognize the crane as a bird of peace...

It isn't just Muslims. If you kill any unarmed protesters then it's
natural that sooner or later you're going find armed resistance.

In public I'll have to deny this, but according to my sources the
g'ment sent a message to the southern muslims, with that 'unfortunate'
incident.
The message? Live in peace or rest in peace...
It's pretty much quiet now. :-D

Why don't you tell that to the Buddhist monks who were killed in retaliation?

Or the deputy governor who got shot?

The problem is, Shitheadawatra thinks shooting first and
asking questions later will pacify the muslims. All he's
managed to do is inflame the tensions and make it worse.
