They have to recite the entire Koran in reverse while being beaten with strips of bacon and screaming "death to america" between every third verse. Most of them don't make it though. The bacon was just too much for them.

This explanation has two possible interpretations: the bombings are either the work of supporters of deposed prime minister Thaksin
Shinawatra, or they were committed by other unspecified elements that are enraged by the military’s imposition of an unelected government.

The perpetrators of this had absolutely no idea who it was that they'd be killing. The attack reminds of a similar attack that took place in Myanmar earlier this year when a marketplace was bombed. That blast killed a Christian missionary (funded by my church) and left her children badly burned and orphaned (both parents dead). There are times when I am truly ashamed to admit that I am a human being. Stuff like this makes me feel that way. This is absolute unspeakable madness.
