The plight of the Rogingya.  This is what happens when Islamists try their BS in a country where the Govt doesn't give a flyingfk what the rest of the world thinks.

Are 'some' predicting that? How concerning.  Tut,tut, 'some', very bad indeed.

Why is it that with every case of turmoil in the world, you blame the Muslims involved? Are you certain that the problems in Myanmar started because the Muslims got uppity? And it was because they were Muslims? And that nobody else is uppity in Myanmar for any particular reason?

I'd remind you at this point that you have told us about the happy Muslim you met in the shop ... and the other ones you managed to associate with actual people.

It's almost as though you are prejudiced or something.

Oh, you stupid, mincing, po-faced idiot. Stop your pathetic mendacious virtue signalling that you give a sh!t about these inferior barbarians.

For fook's sake, they're tinted.

Now fck orf.

It's not hard to upset the old boy,  Aquascoot. He has the right to not be offended.

What did the Rohinga do?

They made the Burmese military ban them, kill them and landmine their villages so they can't return. Never ever.

Fair's fair. I'm sure that if the Bangladeshis were killing off their Buddhists, you'd be blaming the refugees too, no?

I blame Islam,  but that's just me.

Burma's been a military jaunta for over 30 years, Aquascoot. The monks don't run the army. Neither does Aung San Suu Kyi.

The generals would laugh at you if you thought that passed the sniff test.

Most people in nominally Buddhist nations do not understand or want to understand Buddhism. They want ritual, prayer, and group security. As for the Monks: shaving one's head and wearing a robe uniform isn't Buddhist either. At almost any Buddhist establishment you will find tawdry offerings and people thinking they are praying to a deity, none of which has anything to do with what Buddha had to say about himself or humanity. In the West, most people get sucked into Eastern religions via the rather shallow fascination of Orientalism.

Not many, Aquascoot - one or two monks have been vocal against the Rohinga, that's all.  Referring to the Burmese, the Dali Lama made it clear that Buddhism is not about coming down on people of other faiths. The Dali Lama is not in the Burmese Theravada tradition, but is probably the most revered Buddhist leader in the world.

Monks and Aung Saan Su Kyi have nothing to do with the military, who still run Burma. Remember, oppression is not the way of the superior man. Killing and torturing are not on the "narrow road to success".

The Rohinga are being systematically killed and exiled by the Burmese generals. Call it ethnic cleansing. Sure people fight back - call it resistance.

I have no idea why the generals have declared the Rohinga stateless, and nor does the U.N, the NGOs or ASEAN. The rest of South East Asia is currently taking in the refugees, so tbey're not happy about it.

It's worth noting that, aside from posters on internet forums, no one is blaming Islam. The world is blaming the Burmese generals. Mind you, I have no idea what tbey're thinking inside Burma. The Burmese are still heavily monitored by the secret police there.

And the generals aren't talking.
