Myanmar conflict another front on war against Muslims

Ali Muhammed

Myanmar Buddhists are pretty angry these days and I guess if you lived in Myanmar you would be a pretty depressed and demoralized person as well. Buddhists have been on the attack of their fellow countrymen in some of the worse unreported religious violence of this century. Buddhists armed with machetes have been attacking Muslims and burning their mosques and had this attack been on Christians it would of been given much more press in the Western media. Many religious writers in the media are not even aware of the fighting and hatred between two religious groups. You hardly hear about attacking one another. The Buddhist majority of Myanmar have this delusion that Muslims are illegal squatters that need to go back to India. The world's attention needs to be increased and focused more of this country and why the leaders within Myanmar seem to be condoning these brutal attacks of mob violence.  Myanmar had been going through a reform process from authoritarian control to the public,  but it seems that an education process is lacking in this country. I don't imagine Mynamar being the most educated place in the world and this is primarily responsible for the Buddhist hatred and intolerance in this region.

people around the world think more of Islam in forms of intolerance instead of Buddhism and one of the reasons is because of lack of knowledge to and information to what really happens everywhere . When people read about the numerous times Muslims are as often the victims of religious attacks then there could be better understanding.
