#6  But the liberals will not give in. To them the appearance of humanity is the main thing.

Unless you oppose them.

#5  *low numbers that Grom has shared

#4  #2 Simply because democratic governments are easier infiltrated by secular leftists and soon islamics. If the Junta stays in power, the ummah fears soon there will be little to no islam left in a large region.

These low numbers that TW has shared, take doing by the police and military. The military junta is the one who hunts Rogingya and muslim criminals, forcing them to flee to Bangladesh and India. The selective police state they run absolutely crushes islamic angst with prejudice. If the Junta were replaced by Ms Kyi and subsequent elected leaders after her, the Rohingya will finally get their say. And then militant islam will have it's local muscle in Myanmar.

About the Rohingyas, you have to understand, the images by the BBC and CNN depict destitute hapless humans but these are beasts. Ravaging predators posing as human. If a lesser evil like the Myanmar military is required to keep the region free from jihad, so be it. But the liberals will not give in. To them the appearance of humanity is the main thing. Georgie, the UN, asshole NGOs all favour democracy and weep for the islamics.

Qatar and some rich islamist foundations in the EU routinely fund and facilitate Pro-Rohingya activism legally. But when there's a bid to replace the Junta with 'Democracy' they jump at the chance to fund the mobs too and add their locally recruited muscle to the mix. Pakistain trains not only Rohingya, but converts and radicalizes buddhist and christian youth in the region too.

One more thing, very important. Numbers of muslims in any population where they are in a minority are always under reported, so as to avoid alarming voters. If people knew there were 10% muslims suddenly, when there should be 3-4%, they would panic. So every Government of non-moslem nations takes special pains to avoid that, including lying to the people. Moslems have their ways of avoiding census and birth records and living under the radar by confounding district registers.

#3  Myanmar Religions:
Buddhist 87.9%, Christian 6.2%, Muslim 4.3%, Animist 0.8%, Hindu 0.5%, other 0.2%, none 0.1% (2014 est.)
note: religion estimate is based on the 2014 national census, including an estimate for the non-enumerated population of Rakhine State, which is assumed to mainly affiliate with the Islamic faith; as of December 2019, Muslims probably make up less than 3% of Burma's total population due to the large outmigration of the Rohingya population since 2017

#2  Why are Islamist funders involved, Dron?
Posted by: trailing wife   2021-05-03 03:33  

#1  All funded by Soros and islamists as far as Qatar. Unemployables, professional activists, islamists and global leftists trying to redistribute power from a centralized leadership; to recreate the standard westernized model of liberal democracy [which sounds cool only on paper, trust me].
