Buddhist Fury reveals the Buddhist parameters of the conflict in southern Thailand. Monks zealously advocate Buddhist nationalism, act as covert military officers, and equip themselves with guns. Buddhist Fury displays the methods by which religion alters the nature of the conflict and the dangers that come with this transformation.
