The case against tom yum goong

On November 21, 2006, prime minister Surayud Chulanont claimed that the main source of insurgent funding came from a chain of Thai restaurants operating in Malaysia, which sold Thai spicy shrimp soup.

Alhough Malaysia responded by calling this claim "baseless," it really does seem like the only reasonable explanation for the apparent indomitability of the brutal Muslim insurgency in Thailand's south.

I would not trust anyone called tom or anyone who sells spicy shrimp for that matter.
