Burma Rakhine clashes death toll at 56 – state officials

A wise man once said to me, that the most common substance in the universe is not stupidity, but irony. In that spirit I can’t help but notice that while Christianity and Judaism compete to see who is the bigger victim of Islam’s devoted, Buddhists are actually fighting back. And Buddhism really is the religion of peace. I guess they have a better memory of all the territory  they lost than the Jews who lost much of the Arabian peninsula to Mohamed’s thugs and Christians who lost the ‘Vatican East’ in Constantinople. After all, when those 100 foot stone Buddhas were built in Afghanistan that the Taliban destroyed, it wasn’t a Muslim country then, was it?

A Buddhist victim of the violence recovers in hospital More people are being caught up in the inter-communal violence

At least 56 people have been killed and hundreds of homes torched since Sunday, as clashes spread in Burma’s Rakhine state, officials say.

Several were killed overnight as violence erupted despite a night-time curfew in at least two towns.

The latest clashes are the first serious outburst of violence since June when a state of emergency was declared in Rakhine after 90 people were killed.

But tensions remained high between ethnic Rakhine Buddhists and Muslims.

It is unclear what prompted the latest clashes. The Rakhine Buddhists and Muslims blame each other for the violence.

Clashes erupted in the Ratha Taung township late last night but this later spread to the Kyauk Taw township, where security forces opened fire, reports say.

  1. Muslims never ever never ever attack. It is always always Muslims who are attacked. Then poor Muslims are force to defend themselves.

  2. I think the Buddhist nations do have a most vigourous response to the Muslims. They do have numbers and economic power. It is Buddhism which is the number two religion on earth despite all the claims made my Muslims. Japan, China and South Korea are all countries where Buddhism has historical roots and some of the largest Buddha statues and temples are found in these countries. All three countries are leading economies and their products are found in every muslim home. Even the trinkets people buy when they go to Ramadan in Saudi Arabia are made in China by Buddhists! Buddhist will show how us how to deal with the muslims. This is ongoing in Thailand and now Burma. The future is one of constant warfare. What people do not know is that the land that the muslims live on in Burma and Thailand were both annexed by victorious Buddhist armies. Hence the muzzies now fight for their lives now that the modern jihad arrived with bang by their dead hero Bin laden.
