Bangkok Bombing
Recently there was a bombing in Bangkok. It is believed that the bombing was performed by a person from the Uighur ethic minority. The police believe that there are two possible reasons for this bombing.
One reason is the recent deportation of 100 Uighur people form Thailand for illegal immigration. The deportations caused a lot of negative opinions and protests to flow towards the government. This might be an extreme form of protest. For example, immediately after the deportation, even people at a Thai consulate in Turkey protested.
Another reason is because the Uighur ethic minority is relatively rebellious towards its home country, the People's Republic of China. The site of the bombing is known to be popular among the Chinese in Thailand. Of the twenty killed by the bombing, seven were Chinese. Many Uighur people escape from China to Thailand and then to Turkey, according to the police. They might have been trying to seek revenge against China on the way.
Either way, I think this bombing is not justified and that the people responsible should be jailed.
