    Because they are (*)(*)(*)(*)-awful Buddhists, obviously, very like American 'Christians'.

    Rohingya are related to Indo-Aryan people of India and Bangladesh. Burmese are related to the Tibeto-Burmese ethnic groups and in the case of the Shan are related to the Tai-Kadai as are Thai and Lao people.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Yep,, that's one problem. Rohingya moving into Burmese territory.

    I believe the beef is against the newcomers. There was an article on how Banglasdeshi Rohingya fishermen were encroaching in Burmese fishing grounds.

    There is some evidence the Rohingya are the indigenous people of Rakhine state in Myanmar.

    Yes, unfortunately too many anti Christian and anti God will always be in denial about this historical facts they will continue to distort and spread false history it is a good thing that the Crusade history and Muslim history is well written this is why one will seldom hear Muslim leaders complaining or bare false witnessing about the history of the Crusade, they know that the Crusade was a just call and the Templars were holy warriors that they respected.

    They were ghastly superstitious barbarians, after lots of land and an escape from Hell. The Pope was trying to export these gangsters and their insanity from Europe, and make others pay.

    its not that easy "The Rohingya are linguistically related to the Indo-Aryan peoples", doest mean that The Rohingya are related to the Indo-Aryan peoples but not to the Asians

    we all know whats all about.... Burmese generals read news and watch TV. some years ago other Muslims refuges from property and own clan-culture were allowed to settle in Serbian heart lands - Kosovo och Metohija. how did Albanian Muslims pay for this ? stabbed in the back benefactors for couple of US dollars? i m sure that all Juntas ´d act as Burmese generals do if they have a chance.

    Your ridiculous guess makes it look like planet Earth is going to be hit by a Muslim tsunami with its epicentre in Bangladesh. Very soon the waves will reach the shores of your extinct GDL empire.

    Because those who attack others due to religion are violent pieces of (*)(*)(*)(*) and are going to hell.

    Why would you blame anything or anyone OTHER than the violent attackers?

    What is a religion?

    Is ownership forever of all land touched by vermin qualify as religion or government tyranny?

    “Lands developed and tilled by human hands and those which come under Muslim control consequent on jihad are considered to be the property of the Muslim society and none can purchase or sell even one metre thereof.“
    http://www.al-islam.org/philosophyofislam/17.htm

    Volume 1, Book 2, Number 48:
    One day while the Prophet was sitting in the company of some people, (The angel) Gabriel came and asked, "What is faith?" Allah's Apostle replied, 'Faith is to believe in Allah, His angels, (the) meeting with Him, His Apostles, and to believe in Resurrection." Then he further asked, "What is Islam?" Allah's Apostle replied, "To worship Allah Alone and none else, to offer prayers perfectly to pay the compulsory charity (Zakat) and to observe fasts during the month of Ramadan."

    They are racists and religion is irrelevant , the Vietnamese did the same 500 years ago exterminating the Cham who were hindu.
    Racism is not a European thing only, from the Chinese claiming different evolutionary history to some Nigerians claiming that the only way to remove the stink from a baby belonging to another tribe is to drown it racism is here and alive.
    Bengalis in Burma not being muslim wouldn't change a thing.

    Religion is the personal choice of worship or belief or spirituality. You shouldn't attack somebody because of their beliefs.

    There is no question that violence is so against Buddhism that clearly any Buddhist monk engaging in it has forgotten he is a Buddhist. He will need to be reborn 1,000 times to make up for what he has done and what's more next time they likely will be reborn as one of those they have attacked just so they get an idea of what it is like.

    I was shocked when I saw many years ago that Buddhist monks in Sri Lanka had forgotten they were even Buddhist and justifying what was happening by claiming Sri Lanka belonged to Buddhists. Not all. Other monks there just turned their heads and said they did not know what to make of them.

    Burma is even worse. Aljazeera has had films and articles on it describing it as the genocide that the world will not see. Yes, it seemed to rise up this time after some rape or something but that clearly was just an excuse. These people then try to flee to, is it Bangladesh where they have a camp and the people do not want them as they have no room and are jealous of them because they get UN aid and the Bangladeshi people believe they are doing better than them on it and are jealous.

    They are the lucky. There has been massive slaughter and people thrown out of their villages and the villages destroyed.

    http://www.aljazeera.com/Services/Search/?q=Burma genocide

    Now the Dali Lama says that Tibetan Monks burning themselves alive in protest is violence and unacceptable but that is another matter.

    This was your question
    The answer is not practising Buddhism. A Buddhist has no right to interfere with the life process of another being and killing is certainly doing that. Indeed I have heard it suggested that indifference is the besetting sin of buddhism. You can see that in the example I gave in Sri Lanka where Monks who knew violence was not the way to go about it, did not interfere with those who had decided to go that way.

    Litwen you need to decide what you want. If you want to know 'why buddhists' the answer is they are no longer buddhists. If you want to know why people it is as people have already said. The British brought them in and the Burmese did not accept them. Even that humanitarian women of Burma who has recently been released will not confront of it.

    Now I left you the aljazeera links so that if you had genuine interest you could find out. You will not find what I said there I doubt. That was from me not them.

    The Cham are an interesting group. Hindu in Vietnam and Muslim in Cambodia and Laos.

    The Cham were the most oppressed ethnic group during the Khmer Rouge rule in Cambodia,, because they are Muslim. It's possible that over 500,000 charms were put to death by the Khmer Rouge. Many Chams jumped the border into Laos were they were allowed to stay and were given citizenship.

    The head of the Mosque in Vientiane is Cham.

    Anthopologists believe the Cham originated from Borneo and were all originally Hindu.

    Now don't forget, the Angkorian empire which was Hindu had a huge influence on SE Asia. Angkor Wat (Cambodia) and Wat Phou (a mini Angkor Wat) in Laos were long Hindu before Buddhist.

    Angkor Wat is still classed as the biggest regious site in the world and is still being used as a place of worship,, by Theravada Buddhist. Interestingly, Angkor Wat wasn't damaged during the Khmer Rouge rule as Angkor Wat was being used as a weapons and ammunitions depot.

    You need to find better history books.
    Christians had no problem entering Jerusalem under Muslim rule.

    Your crusaders were made up of mercenaries who had to be paid and to be paid to fight for the pope they looted and raped and murdered their way across Europe through Damascus to Palestine.
