Buddhists On The Warpath: Running Amok, Torching Homes, Murdering a Sweet, Little Old 94 Year Old Muslim Grandma


Evil Buddhists.

EVIL.

The Buddhists Are Restless

From the Canadian Press:

THANDWE, Myanmar - Buddhist mobs killed a 94-year-old Muslim woman and torched more than 70 homes on Tuesday as sectarian violence again gripped Myanmar's Rakhine state despite a visit by President Thein Sein, officials and residents said. 
With attacks reported in several villages on the outskirts of Thandwe, where tensions have been mounting for days, the number of causalities could rise. 
More than 700 rioters, some swinging swords, took to the streets in Thabyuchaing, about 20 kilometres (12 miles) north of the coastal town, on Tuesday afternoon, police officer Kyaw Naing said. 
An elderly Muslim woman died from stab wounds in the clashes that followed, the officer said, putting the number of houses set on fire at between 70 and 80. 
Smouldering buildings — and several injured Buddhist Rakhines — were seen by The Associated Press in Shwe Hlay. A police officer, speaking on condition of anonymity because he did not have authority to talk to the media, said Linthi also was hit by rioters.
Both villages are about 17 kilometres (10 miles) from Thandwe. 
The visit by Preisdent Thein Sein to the divided region was his first since sectarian violence broke out more than a year ago. 
He arrived in the Rakhine state capital of Sittwe under tight security early Tuesday and was scheduled to travel to several more towns, including Maungdaw to the north and, on Wednesday, Thandwe to the south, said a senior official in the president's office, declining to be identified because he was not authorized to speak about the sensitive trip. 
He said Thein Sein "is going there to help find a long-term solution to the problem" and would meet with government officials and residents. 
Many of those targeted so far have been ethnic Rohingya Muslims, considered by many in the country to be illegal migrants from Bangladesh, though many of their families arrived generations ago. 
But in the latest flare-up, the victims were Kamans, another Muslim minority group, whose citizenship is recognized. 
The trouble started Saturday, when a Buddhist taxi driver alleged he'd been verbally abused by a Muslim shop owner while trying to park his vehicle. 
Hours later, rocks were thrown at the man's home. And by Sunday, as anger spread, two houses owned by Muslims were burned to the ground. 
Initially confined to Rakhine state, sectarian attacks have spread this year into Myanmar's heartland, ravaging several other cities across the country. At the same time, a Buddhist-led campaign called "969" has taken root nationwide. Its supporters urge Buddhists to shop only at Buddhist stores and avoid marrying, hiring or selling their homes or land to Muslims. 
While radical monks have helped fuel the crisis, saying Muslims pose a threat to Buddhist culture and traditions, critics say a failure by the government and society as a whole to speak out is helping perpetuate the violence.
Buddhism if a religion of peace.
