The BBC and the terrorists in Southern Thailand

The Islamic terrorists in Southern Thailand havde been responsible for the deaths of over 5,000 people since their insurgency restarted in earnest in 2004. How much have you heard of this Islamist insurrection on the BBC? I finally found a BBC video report on the insurgency, do go and watch the video and read the summary text:

'Following the deaths of 16 insurgents in Thailand in a failed attack on a Thai marine base, the BBC's Jonathan Head speaks to some of the insurgents' bereaved families.

The deaths are the largest loss of life the separatist movement has suffered, since it restarted its campaign for an independent Islamic state, nine years ago.'

No mention of those killed by the Muslim insurgents, just an attempt to raise sympathy for the insurgents' families.

The BBC's almost symbiotic relationship with Islamic terrorism is frankly disturbing.
