God Bless the Buddhists, they are dealing with the Muslim jihadist problem by themselves and thankfully, the Myanmar government isn’t interfering.
And before you start boohooing for the Muslims, check links at bottom.
AP Terrified Muslim families hid in forests in western Myanmar on Wednesday, a day after fleeing new sectarian violence that erupted even as the president toured the divided region. Buddhist mobs killed a 94-year-old woman and four other Muslims and burned dozens of homes in unrest Tuesday near the coastal town of Thandwe.
The government has failed to stop the sectarian violence from spreading since it first erupted last year, killing hundreds of people and forcing many thousands to flee their homes. Some rights groups accuse the government of tolerating, or even abetting, what they describe as ethnic cleansing directed against the Muslim Rohingya minority in Myanmar, also known as Burma. (We certainly hope so)
They say President Thein Sein, who is visiting the region for the first time since clashes flared there last year, has done little to crack down on religious intolerance and failed to bridge a divide that has left hundreds of thousands of Muslims marginalized and segregated — many of them confined by security forces in inadequately equipped camps for those who fled their homes.
Critics say his security forces have not done enough to contain the violence, and that his government has failed to crack down on radical Buddhist monks who have instilled hatred and fear of the Muslim minority, arguing they pose a threat to Buddhist culture and traditions. (They DO, just as they do in every non-Muslim country they infest)
“The president is the most responsible person in the country. Up until now, when Muslim people have been killed, their property destroyed, he’s been silent,” said Hla Sein, a 54-year-old Muslim man. He blamed ultra-nationalist Buddhists for sowing divisions between Buddhists and Muslims who until now have been living peacefully together. (No, they haven’t. Muslims have been raping and killing Buddhists. This is payback)
Two of his cousins’ houses were burned down a day before Thein Sein’s arrival. Witnesses said soldiers and police made no efforts to stop the violence that afflicted several villages. In Thabyuchaing, about 20 kilometers (12 miles) north of Thandwe, more than 700 rioters, some swinging swords, took to the streets, police officer Kyaw Naing said.
A 94-year-old Muslim woman died from stab wounds in the clashes that followed, the officer said, adding that between 70 and 80 houses were set on fire. Another officer, however, said only 19 homes were burned. Thandwe township police confirmed Wednesday that the bodies of four Muslim men were found in the village.
Sectarian clashes that began in Rakhine in June 2012 have since morphed into an anti-Muslim campaign that has spread to towns and villages nationwide. So far, hundreds of people have been killed and more than 140,000 have fled their homes, the vast majority of them Muslims.
Most of those targeted in Rakhine state have been ethnic Rohingya Muslims, who are illegal migrants from Bangladesh. But in the latest flare-up this week, the victims were Kamans, another Muslim minority group, whose citizenship is recognized.
Muslims, who account for about 4 percent of Myanmar’s roughly 60 million people, have been the main victims of the violence, but they have been prosecuted for crimes related to the clashes far more often than members of the Buddhist majority.
Indeed, only if we stand together united against muslim insanity we will have a chance of success. Muslims will always stand up for each other regardless of who is guilty. Let’s take an example from these Birmese. It’s about time we all stood up to protect ourselves against the ultimate evil of islam.
The ultimate hope is that the 6 billion Christians, Buddhists, Hindus, Jews, Gays and so on will finally get it and band together to defeat the 1 billion muslim savages. Full support for the Buddhists. Protect your culture and your lands from the invaders.
goat raping, pedophilia, incest, etc…
The Myanmar Buddhists are defending themselves against Muslim aggression. The same aggression that just recently led to the Nairobi attack.
Muslim crocodile tears aren’t fooling anyone.
The way our US government is handling jihad these days I think we are seeing what awaits Americans. How long down to the road to battle no one knows.
969 should be implemented in every western country !
Just look at the state of that place now that the sand rats have had a hand in it…….razed to the ground,devastated.Good on the Buddhists,they don’t want the rats there and they have the sense to know that all the talking in the world won’t get them out,you have to fight fire with fire.How these gentle people must have been pushed to act like they did,totally against what they stand for but thet realise there are no second cracks at this,the sand rats must be driven out,by force if necessary or else they themselves will either be forced out or killed.Why don’t these sand rats just bugger off out into the sahara somewgere and fight amongst themselves until there’s only one left and let somebody then send in a sniper.These sand rats would find an argument in an empty room.
Give me coordinates of their location so I can send them to the nearest Buddhist Temple. I am sure they can fix them right quick.
Buddhism, Judaism, and Hinduism are real peaceful!
No wonder why most important religious groups of today are above 3.
What muslims do anyway? Except suicide bombing, pedophilia….
What we see here is what awaits us. Burma is ahead of us.
Your telling nothing but the ugly truth.
Buddists have been decimated from regions of present day afganistan , pakistan and most parts of India during the Islamic / jihadi / Mughal rule.
Hindus were killed in the millions but they kept regrouping and fighting back every few years ….and the mughals who ruled for 250 years did it by giving concessions
and signing pacts with local hindu kings….but the last great Mughal was a tyrant
and the most powerful financially and militarily in the World at that point in time.
And he began to commit his jihadi acts against non muslims hindus and buddists ….it was during this time that shivaji, a hindu chieftain, began to gain strength to rid the country from the islamic menace .
And against odds that would make lesser mortals give in , after series
of battles over a period of 23 years, overthrew the mughals from Delhi and other muslim kings in South India too.
Americans have enjoyed freedom and take it for granted and become complacent .
The battle today if far more simpler………this islamic menace can be checked in America by fighting it socially , politically and financially.
It needs consistent , concerted effort.
If this does not happen, then there will be street battles like in lebanon and syria..
Thumbs up to the Buddhists of Myanmar.
Can you believe a Buddhist killed a 94 year old woman? They must have felt pushed beyond their limits. Good for them….muslims need to go home.
The Muzzies are finally getting what they have dished out to the rest of the world for 1400 years. The Burmese are a shining example to the rest of world on how to eradicate the most vile group of people ever to exist.
People in the West are cheering the Buddhist and hope they will inspire people the world over.
Viva! Buddhist crusades!!
Europeans need to take note of what the Buddhists are doing in Myanmar, it’s working, as should Americans ’cause were on their list & our government certainly won’t protect us..
In 1976 I visited Myanmar while working on my thesis. Their government doesn’t tolerate Sh*t especially from foreigners even with the 2011 reforms.
The people are close to 90% Buddhist and it takes a lot for them to engage in violence. More power to the Buddhists and I hope they kick the Muslimes out.
Well said Eugenia…it takes a lot for Buddhists to resort to violence……
I’m with you. People are starting to take a stand and I am so proud of the Buddhists.
what makes u so proud of Buddhists? what u knows about Buddhism? before u so proud of being a Buddhist u should know the basic fundamentals of Buddhism
no sympathy here. muslims have their own country it’s is called Bangledesh they can move there
Amen!
‘Boatpeople’ can be a two way traffic, then eventually one way, one way to the mecca for all arabs and arab wannabees – Arabia.
Dear dragon, formally Bangladesh was a Buddhist country & still few Buddhists are existing there under the presser of cruel Islam. 700 years ago Muslim invaders destroyed Hinduism & Buddhism from Asia. Afghanistan,Pakistan, Bangladesh, Malaysia, Burma, Thailand, India, Butan, Nepal, Ladak, Indonesia, Maldive Islands, Singapore & some more Asian countries were Hindu or Buddhist & Islamic expansionism swallowed their cultures & civilizations little by little during the last 700 years.
Bangladesh is indian land colonised by muslims – hands off it. anytime india will take back — ofcourse after converting the muslims to anyother religion but islam
