Violence in Rakhine State: Deadly attacks in Myanmar kill 89

[Mage]

We should arm Rohingyas and other separatist. It will bring burmese economy down. With weak economy and military it will be happy hunting.

China is watching their back. And also we may make the separatists stronger by arming them by Myanmar military would still remain stronger. I don't see any use of it. And often separatists fight against each other not against the govt.

Would you say people like Bhagat Singh or Mangal Panday were terrorists? There is perhaps no universal definition of terrorist.

There is a definition of a terrorist. Neither Bhagat Singh nor Mangal Pandey killed innocent common British. Arakan has been sensitive since 1930s itself and the kind of riots and violence that goes there, we all know. Only thing is you see it from the point of religion while others see it from the point of countering violence with force.

Neither they targeted common people here only military personnel. And I'm not seeing it from religious POV. You're seeing it from your Islamphobe POV.

An act of war against the nation is equated to that of a terrorist attack. Whether it is rioting or targeting strategic assets like military bases or personnel.

USA is one of the ONLY two countries who are stopping the defining of terrorism in the UN. All countries including yours, China, India, Russia, Korea etc have agreed to define it and pass the resolution.

I would take their current state with a pinch of salt even if my country is engaging seriously with them.

By your logic, the Indian National Army led by Bose would also be regarded as a terrorist organization.

The Rohingyas are not killing any innocent people rather specifically targeting the Myanmar military due to their tortures on the community.

Take the matter to UN, dada. Why arm those who want to take lives of common people and soldiers alike?

UN's job is to resettle stateless people.

Not yours or Myanmar's.

unfortunately international community is not doing anything at all. We have already taken around half million refugees and also many are living illegally. why the fvck we have to suffer? As far i know it is the monkeys who are killing innocent common people. We have to arm those oppressed common people to defend themselves.

btw dada they are not stateless they have been living in rakhine for hundred of years

How do you know China is watching their back? China means business only! And you think we will just supply weapons to the separatists? We will provide diplomatic support too! We need to play the Muslim card for that.

Separatists will drain Burmese economy and make them weaker and desperate. If somehow we can trick them to attack us. Then we can gain a huge amount of much needed land.

When we call ourselves Tiger we shouldnt act like pussy. And success is the judge of right and wrong!

Over “two thousand Rohingyas” intruded into Bangladesh territory through different points of Naikhongchari upazila in Bandarban today fearing persecution in the Rakhine state of Myanmar.

“Around 2000 to 2500 Rohingya people intruded into Bangladesh from Myanmar this evening,” Md Zahangir Alam, chairman of Goomdum Union Parishad, told our Cox’s Bazar correspondent.

Border Guard Bangladesh members have cordoned them off and are keeping close vigilance so that they cannot proceed further within the country, he said.

Meanwhile, locals extended their helping hands to the Rohingya refugees with food, water and others life-saving materials, he said.

In the wake of Rohingya insurgents' attacks on police and army personnel in Rakhine State, Bangladesh yesterday saw a sudden influx of Rohingyas who fled Myanmar for fear of persecution.

More than a thousand Rohingyas, including women and children, crossed the Naf river and entered Bangladesh through several points along the Teknaf and Ukhia borders yesterday morning.

We can easily make them as strong as Kachin army who could hold the territory. We also hold good offices with Arakan Army of Rakhine community.

Rohingyas are racially bengalis. Probably descendants of noakhallas and borishaillas. Another reason partition of india never should have happened.
