Since this photo was taken, Desmond Tutu has condemned Aung San Suu Kyi over the ethnic cleansing of Rohingya Muslims in Burma (AP)
Aung San Suu Kyi, the de facto leader of Burma (Myanmar), and
other Burmese government officials have been saying that the Rohingya
Muslims in northern Rakhine State have been burning down their own
villages and killing each other, presumably to embarrass the
government. This claim by Aung San Suu Kyi is typical of the kind of
garbage we hear from other international criminals and war criminals,
such as Syria's Bashar al-Assad, Russia's Vladimir Putin, and China's
Xi Jinping.
Aung San Suu Kyi is a Nobel Peace Prize winner, and lately other Nobel
Peace Prize winners, including Desmond Tutu and Malala Yousafzai, have
been demanding that Suu Kyi either stop lying or resign from the
government. The Nobel Prize committee has announced that it's not
their policy to take back a Nobel Prize, once it's been awarded.
Desmond Tutu wrote a letter to Suu Kyi, saying:
> [indent]<QUOTE>"As we witness the unfolding horror we pray for you to
> be courageous and resilient again. We pray for you to speak out
> for justice, human rights and the unity of your people. We pray
> for you to intervene in the escalating crisis and guide your
> people back towards the path of righteousness again."<END QUOTE>[/indent]
And "unfolding horror" is an apt description. Starting in 2011,
Buddhists have been attacking Muslims in villages across Burma,
particularly the 1.1 million ethnic Rohingyas in Rakhine State. Mobs
of Buddhists have attacked Muslims, conducting atrocities including
torture and rape, killing hundreds and forcing hundreds of thousands
to leave their homes to flee from the attacks. Buddhist civilians
have joined the Burmese army in burning down entire Rohingya villages
to the ground.
In the last year, Rohingya activists have formed a separatist group
called the Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (ARSA). Last month, ARSA
carried out coordinated attacks against 30 Burma police outposts.
This has triggered a new tsunami of violence by Buddhist civilians and
Burma's army against the Rohingyas. In the last two weeks, 270,000
refugees have been forced to flee across the Naf River into
Bangladesh, joining the 400,000 refugees already there. They're
living there in terrible conditions, may sleeping out in the open in
the pouring rain, with shortages of food. BBC and Guardian (London)

**** BBC reporter Jonathan Head returns from Burma's government-controlled visit
****
Foreign officials, including reporters and humanitarian organizations,
have been requesting for years to visit Rakhine state, in order to
determine what's really happening and whether the government is lying.
Burma's government has strictly forbidden such visits, which is all
but a guarantee that Burma's government is lying.
Jonathan Head is the South East Asia Correspondent for BBC News, and
he was granted permission to visit Rakhine state under the control of
Burmese army minders, who would control what he saw and who he spoke
to. He gave a lengthy interview on the BBC World News. Interview
does describe exactly what's going on in Rakhine state, but only
portions of what Head says are in BBC printed news stories.
Head's interview contains a great deal of valuable information not
available anywhere else. It's an absolutely fascinating as a piece of
modern history and generational history, so I transcribed it and am
posting most of it here.
The Burmese minders' attempts to control what Head saw and here were a
total farce. The minders were caught in obvious lies, including
fabricating a photo with a Hindu actor and Hindu women wearing tea
towels, pretending to be Muslims burning down the Muslim villages.
Things like this prove the massive stupidity of Aung San Suu Kyi and
other Burmese leaders.
Head was first asked what he saw on the trip:
> [indent]<QUOTE>"A lot more than we were supposed to.
>
> It was a government controlled trip, and I think the idea was to
> show us aspects of the conflict in northern Rakhine State that

> supposedly showing Muslims setting fire to their own homes,
> although those photographs have turned out to be fakes. A man
> who's a Hindu in a display center has admitted acting, and a few

>
> It wasn't a very convincing show. We found there was so much fear.
> We were surrounded by officials and armed police the whole time,
> that it was impossible for people to speak freely, and even then
> quietly on a few occasions when we could meet Muslims, they all
> expressed their deep fear of the government. The government was

> One village we saw, dogs had killed a goat, because they were

> Boats abandoned. Really extraordinary scene of depopulation.
>
> We were told by the remaining police and soldiers, who are the
> only people you'd meet there, that this is Muslims and Muslim
> militants destroying their own villages."<END QUOTE>[/indent]
Head then described how his minders lost control of him when he ran
across a rice field to a burning village that they didn't want him to
see:
> [indent]<QUOTE>"Well, on the way back from one of those visits, we
> happened to see some smoke going up through the trees, and you

>
> As we arrived, they departed, they didn't want to talk, although

**** Generational explanation for Burma's genocide and ethnic cleansing
****
Burma's genocide and ethnic cleansing follows a generational pattern
that's probably been repeated a million times throughout history.
Jonathan Head's interview provides a good deal of information about
what happened.
In 1942, Japan invaded Burma to oppose the British. Burma sided with
the Japanese, while the British actually pulled out, leaving behind a
population of Muslims who had been performing services in the rice
fields.
There was an extremely bloody generational crisis war between the
Burmese Buddhists and Muslims, with huge atrocities on both sides.
After the war ended, new generations of children on both sides grow up
with no personal memory of the war. What they hear from their parents
is stories about the bravery of their hero parents, and about the
atrocities committed by the other side. Parents always forget to
mention the atrocities that their side committed.
So the children learn to hate the other ethnic group. This is what
always happens. As new generations grow up, there are riots,
demonstrations, and sporadic violence, but the traumatized survivors
of the war make sure that nothing like that happens again.
Today, all those traumatized survivors of the 1942 massacres and
atrocities are all gone, but the hatred remains, as described by
Jonathan Head. The younger generations are not traumatized, and have
no personal memory of the massacres and atrocities 70 years ago, and
have no fear of repeating those massacres and atrocities.
We see the same kinds of hatreds turn into violence in other
situations, whether Jews versus Arabs in the Mideast, Sunnis versus
Shias in the Mideast, Christians versus Muslims in Central African
Republic, Tamils versus Buddhists in Sri Lanka, and so forth. This is
how the world works.
****
**** The future of Burma and the Rohingyas
****
The Burma Rohingya situation is an absolute disaster. We know that
World War III is coming soon, but we don't know how it will be
triggered -- whether in the South China Sea, North Korea, the Mideast,
or elsewhere. But the rapidly escalating violence in Burma puts that
situation near the top of the list.
As I understand the figures, there are (were) 1.1 million Rohingyas
living in Rakhine State, and now almost half of them have fled into
Bangladesh, where they're living in disgusting refugee camps or just
in open fields. Now presumably the Burmese plan drive the rest of the
Rohingyas out, and burn their villages down as well, so that they
can't return.
Then presumably the Burmese plan repopulate the area with Buddhists.
So you're going to have a million Muslims just across the Naf River
from a million Buddhists, living in the Muslims' old places. Is there
anyone who seriously believes that's a stable situation?
This has now caught the attention of Muslims in other countries.
Muslims in the Philippines, Malaysia and Indonesia are talking about a
"jihad" targeting the Buddhists in Burma.
Furthermore, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the leader of the so-called Islamic
State (IS or ISIS or ISIL or Daesh), declared as early as 2014 that
Burma is a place that's ripe for infiltration of ISIS militants.
