They are fleeing because they cant fight back without heavy weapons. Give it to them, you will be able to enjoy your beach there with Rohingya women fanning you from behind.

We cannot give them.. Our hands are tied.. Rohyngas already don't have a good reputation. We'll be accused of arming the terrorists. This will only ruin our reputation in the international arena.

They can get them from Chinese smugglers .. we just need to keep a blind eye on them.

Then why haven't they started fighting back yet?

If Rohyngas can capture some areas and call it a country then we with some other Muslim countries should recognize it. But they are no where near of doing this. What they do only gets them massacred.

Patience brother... First need to gain the public opinion from worldwide and they are pretty much successful.
Just see the reaction from UN and USA after the attack. USA asked MM not to do reprisal attack. UN asked for dialog. Nobody called Rohingya terrorist. This is very important. MM will try its best to label them as terrorist. They have to play the game right.

Message from Rohingya national organization chairman Nasrollah Arakhani

Who the fck is this Nasrollah Arakhani?

Summoning Myanmar envoy, strong protest in Dhaka

The use of the word 'Bangali' with the internal terrorist attack of Rakhine state of Miyaram and the strong opposition to Burmese protests prompted Rohingya to join the team. The protesters were summoned by the Myanmar envoy to Dhaka on Saturday afternoon and summoned the Foreign Ministry. Myanmar's ambassador to the foreign secretary Shahidul Haq confirmed Manabjamin. Meanwhile, another official said a detailed discussion was held with the ministry officials with the envoy of Myanmar about the Rakhine situation. The country's government has been urged to ensure that the country's internal conflict does not fall in Bangladesh and that Myanmar citizens do not try to intrude into Bangladesh. The sources said that a protest note had been handed over to Myanmar's envoy by the clear statement of Dhaka.

Myanmar Border Guard Police (BGB) fired at some Rohingyas on the Tumher frontier of Naikkhanchhari in Bandarban. Today, they shot 8-10 rounds near the pillar No. 2 at 12:30 pm on Saturday. Confirming the authenticity of the information 34 BGB Commander Lt. Colonel Manzurul Hasan Khan said that the alert has been increased in the border.
He also said that after the clashes in Myanmar many Rohingyas are waiting for different border areas of the country to enter Bangladesh to save lives.
Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) has increased surveillance in border areas to prevent them from entering Bangladesh.
The clashes erupted in midnight on Thursday in the Rakhine province of Myanmar after some security forces attacked the Rohingya insurgents. In this, 59 Rohingya and 12 security personnel of Myanmar were killed. After the situation deteriorated in Rakhine province, Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) has issued a warning to Bangladesh border. Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) has strengthened the security by increasing the number of members in camps at Ghumdhum and Cox's Bazar border in Naikkhanchari upazila of Bandarban.
BGB 34 Battalion captain Lt. Colonel Manzurul Ahsan Khan said that a large number of Rohingya took place on the border of the no-man land from the morning for intrusion. However, they could not penetrate due to BGB's tight security. Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) has warned the security of the border.
Ghanudum Union Parishad chairman Jahangir Aziz of Naikhongchanchi upazila said that the sound of shooting is being heard from Thursday midnight on Thursday.

BD should liberate Myanmar. /s

On a serious note, we can't take more people in the already so dense country. On one hand, I want BD to help but on the other, I want BD to stay out of it. How do people of Bangladesh who live near the border or places (where Rohingya people take refugee) feel? The crisis isn't going to affect Dhaka as much as people living those areas, so what is their opinion on the matter?

 

[chatterjee]

we should take action against the oppression by the monkeys. We have to arm the rohingyas to solve the issue we cant take anymore.

 

[Tshering22]

Well there are tons of factions in Burma against govt. They can be called separatists as they want some land to form some form of country. Not sure they can be called terrorists.

They attacked state assets and went against the nation. Not only that they killed without any provocation.

Which is why I said your definition of peace is very different from rest of the world.

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.

Where did I call them peaceful? You can see neither US nor UN labelled the attackers as terrorists. There are many insurgents in Myanmar and they do thins kind of things too. Why the label terrorist have to be attached to Rohynga group only?

Meanwhile, Dhaka also handed over a protest note to the Myanmar envoy as the neighbouring country’s army in a statement used the “term Bengali to describe Rohingyas”.

In a statement yesterday, Myanmar army said that "extremist Bengali insurgents attacked a police station in Maungdaw region in northern Rakhine state with a handmade bomb explosive and held co-ordinated attacks on several police posts at 01:00".

The statement came following the death of at least 89 people as Rohingya militants besieged border posts in northern Rakhine state yesterday, triggering a fresh exodus of refugees towards Bangladesh.

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.

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

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