snoop1130 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Al Qaeda warns Myanmar of 'punishment' over Rohingya Rohingya refugees go about their day inside their temporary shelter near Balukhali in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh, September 13, 2017. REUTERS/Danish Siddiqui YANGON (Reuters) - Al Qaeda militants have called for support for Myanmar's Rohingya Muslims, who are facing a security crackdown that has sent about 400,000 of them fleeing to Bangladesh, warning that Myanmar would face "punishment" for its "crimes". The exodus of Muslim refugees from Buddhist-majority Myanmar was sparked by a fierce security force response to a series of Rohingya militant attacks on police and army posts in the country's west on Aug. 25. The Islamist group behind the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the Untied States issued a statement urging Muslims around the world to support their fellow Muslims in Myanmar with aid, weapons and "military support". "The savage treatment meted out to our Muslim brothers ... shall not pass without punishment," al Qaeda said in a statement, according to the SITE monitoring group. "The government of Myanmar shall be made to taste what our Muslim brothers have tasted." Myanmar says its security forces are engaged in a legitimate campaign against "terrorists", whom it blames for attacks on the police and army, and on civilians. The government has warned of bomb attacks in cities, and al Qaeda's call to arms is likely to compound those concerns. "We call upon all mujahid brothers in Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, and the Philippines to set out for Burma to help their Muslim brothers, and to make the necessary preparations — training and the like - to resist this oppression," the group said.

tryasimight Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Al Qaeda may well find a different sort of force to fight against in Myanmar. The Burmese people will not be bound by the niceties that western forces stupidly have to follow called the rules of war. I expect they will be as savage as the muslims are.

Slip Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 With respect, I think you might be missing the point, or at least the likely reality tryasimight. The people who will suffer from this 'jihad' will be as innocent as the vast majority of the muslims suffering from the Buddhist extremists recently.

Anyhow that was not my point. My point was that those who will suffer from a backlash caused from this will be innocents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So are you ok with the nice Buddhists killing children, raping women, ethnic cleansing which seems to be what's going on. I would not be OK with anyone doing that... but you seem to be OK with the Muslims doing it and think they should be allowed to do it as they are poor misunderstood muslims doing it form other people oppressing them? These people are not native to that country... they are in fact ILLEGAL IMMAGRANTS.. who have stayed there.. despite many attempts to get them to leave.. and they UNDERSTOOD they would not be allowed to stay when they first went there... but typical to Muslims, once in they think they are there for good.. as their god will take over that country for Islam.. and none belivers will be punished by death and torture. In this situation they have kept having children during their stay.. and now claim they have a right to stay there and are being persecuted. You try to come to Thailand illegally or any other country with your family and then demand to stay there... the least you can expect in imprisonment if you don't leave. But then if you had a muslim family your family would start bombing stuff, raping and beheading people in revenge for your imprisonment... and the West would report on the news how YOU and your family were victims or persecution. These people are illegal immigrants, not welcome, they hate the religion of that country and the people and culture there... so its time they got out. I suggest you do some research how and when these muslims came to Burma in the first place before you start defending them.

You can't kill and rape innocent poor people unless you convince the country's population that the killing and raping is justified or the victims are salvages. What is happening in Burma is criminal and intentional. Just like the Americans slaughtering the Indians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nigel Garvie Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 If only it was as simple as "Nasty Muslims" or "Nasty Buddhists" in this case, it would be much easier for us all, it is not. The history of Bengali immigration into Myanmar is a long and complicated one, and it appears that the largest movement came when the British Empire used them to help control the indigenous Burmese whist they removed the teak etc - no surprise there then. The British armed the Rohinga muslims in WW2 to help them fight the Japanese. The Rohingas used the arms to destroy Burmese Buddhist villages (Sound familiar) look up the "Arakan massacres". Even despite the recent Jihadi attacks on the police stations, the Myanmar army response has been, by all appearances in the western media, which one cannot trust in their totality, unspeakably harsh. However resentment on both sides has been brewing for centuries, there are no good guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargeezr Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 If these Muslim that are getting sent out of Burtma were attacking the legal military then I have no sympathy in them getting driven from that country. Time Burma sends them all away and burns the villages so they have nothing to return to. If there are no other Muslim that will take them and give them somewhere to live, that is what is disgusting with the Muslim countries in the world. Not about Burtma driving out a group of people who were not trying to live peacefully there. Geezer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LammyTS1 Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Al Qaeda's worldwide jihad continues. How many muslims from Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, and Philippines believe in their version of Islam? Probably enough to instigate terrorist atrocities against innocent buddhists. Their call for aid is for violence, not help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawker9000 Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Isn't it amazing how Islamists have made intimidation and threatened violence the "new normal"? And whenever anyone calls them on it, the PC brigade is immediately on the scene reminding us we must all be more "tolerant" and that's the real reason for the violence.

All Islamist are not the same just like all Jews and Christians and atheists are not the same. Rape and murder is wrong regardless of the religious beliefs of the victims.
