Burmese Muslim Killings and the Blind World In the Age of Internet and 24x7, massacres of Burmese poor, innocent and hapless Muslims are continuing amid high felonious silence and complete boycott of international media. International community, which proclaims itself as the sole saviour of the world and is committed to stop all sorts of terrorism, has turned a blind eye to the massacres and inhuman behaviour meted out to Burmese Muslims, who are the most persecuted community in the world. Buddhist leaders in the world didn’t condemn this mass murder while they are united to hound terrorist elements in any other part of this planet. Dalai Lama, a spiritual leader of the Tibetan people and symbol of the struggle for Tibetan self-government, whose Facebook page says: “his life is guided by three major commitments: the promotion of basic human values, the fostering of inter-religious harmony and the welfare of the Tibetan people”, did not say a single word of condemnation asking the Myanmar government to recognise the rights of Muslims and stop this mass killing and displacement of this oppressed community. Aung San Suu Kyi, the poster girl of the pro-democracy movement, the strongest opposition leader of Burma and a Nobel laureate, didn’t say even a single word on dangerous growing violent activities by Buddhists in Burma against Muslims. When in London in June 2012, she said simply that this conflict should be dealt with wisdom, without expressing her extreme disappointment; even she does not consider Rohingyan Muslims as citizens. The United Nations that dispatched international observers to Syria to prevent citizens from violent groups loyal to the Syrian government understands that its sole condemnation would bring the climate to normalisation. Even though this is the world’s largest and powerful institution, it is not considering on any proposal to send a team of international observers to Rohingya to prevent the lives of children, men and women. The brutalities, which are not called “Buddhist Terrorism” because Muslims are the victims, throw light on the persecution as well as trials and tribulations the Rohingyan Muslims have been suffering there for decades.
