God, what an army

Article Abstract:

A group from ethnic Karens in Myanmar called 'God's Army' has been involved in the hijacking of a bus in Thailand, and the storming of a hospital. The aim was to secure medical help for members of the group, which is led by two twins called Luther and Johnny Htoo, who are 12-years-old. The rebels included students previously involved in a hostage taking incident at the embassy of Myanmar in Bangkok, Thailand. They were angry at Thailand's seeking to contain them in Myanmar, and not permitting them to take refuge in Thailand. Thai soldiers killed all the rebels in the hospital.
