File under: Govt of Iran

#1 Well, what does Iran expect the US to do about Burma? And aren't they more worried that the US will do it to them first?

#2 What a load of horse droppings.
Always consider the source.
Burma has been over 90% Buddhist for hundreds of years. Whats happening is a now familiar pattern. Muslims (Bangladeshis) emigrate to new country ...try to overpower the locals by sheer numbers then demand special privileges. When the locals resist they are labeled racist and anti-Muslim. Over and over the same dance is played out until we wake up and realize they intend to rule the world in the name of Allah, by force if necessary. That's whats really going on in Burma.

#3 Mohammedans have been living in Burma for centuries

Meaning the locals have no illusions left about "Religion of Peace".

#4 The Press TV host's question asked "why is the government aiding these extreme Buddhists to kill and torture and boot them out of their houses?"

I should probably go to Burma. I've never seen an extreme Buddhist.

#6 You are correct Mr Hunt. Moslems get too pushy and piss off everyone on the planet.

#7 It's funny, the Burmese government has had no problem whatsoever slowly ethnically cleansing away Buddhists it doesn't like... look up the wackypedia entry on the Shan, for instance. Sometimes your enemy's enemy is your enemy's enemy, no more, no less... I can't shake the idea that they're working an angle here.
