(in case it isn't clear to someone, the Rohyngia are the ones committing genocide on Buddhists in Bangladesh, some say with state support. Certainly no Bangladeshi army is partially mobilized to protect them like in Myanmar, even though yes, they managed to thoroughly piss off that Myanmarese army)
So ... 50km down the line ? Across the Bangladeshi border ?

Not that it hasn't been happening inside Myanmar too, but at a lower level than with state support, as the muslims have in Bangladesh and the Buddhists have in Myanmar, sure.
How long has that been going on ? Since long before the separation ... (depending on where exactly you mean it's between 500 and 1000 years)
Do I get a question now ? Why is there very little to zero action and attention to the Bangladesh persecutions/genocides ? Especially given that the death toll in Bangladesh is far higher over the past 50 years, more than a factor 10, than it is in Myanmar. Even more so given that it's probably just one single conflict, especially in the last 10 years, rather than 2 separate things ? Why is there zero mention of that side of it, and zero pressure on Bangladesh, hell, there are people claiming the Bangladeshi state is actually being paid to make it worse.
The history of the situation in India is long, sordid and cruel. We know what started the whole thing : muslim invasion, with systematic genocides carried out over hundreds of years ... the only conflict in world history that caused so much death to actually cause a dent in the growth of humanity as a whole. A millenial genocide, fought mostly with dull knives and systematic abuse and persecution of non-muslims, with so much death that 100 nukes couldn't hope to be it's equal, with the 2 partitions in some ways just being a resumption of the old conflict between muslims and ... well everyone they ever met, temporarily put on ice in India by the British colonization.
- AmericanChopper 8y agoYou’re talking about small examples of sectarian conflict (which are reported on, as proven by the report you posted), and trying to equate them to a genocide, which is beyond dishonest. What’s happening to the Rohingya is absolutely a genocide, a fact the Burmese Buddhists openly admit to. It’s clear that you simply have anti-Muslim prejudice, and that no level of revising history or denying reality is beneath you.
