Background: Burma unrest What sparked the violence in June? The gang rape and murder of a young Buddhist woman by 10 Rohingya Muslims in Rakhine in May, which set off a chain of deadly religious clashes. Why was a state of emergency declared? It allows the introduction of martial law, which means the military can take over administrative control of the region. Who are the Rohingyas? The United Nations describes them as a persecuted religious and linguistic minority from western Burma. The Burmese government, on the other hand, says they are relatively recent migrants from the Indian sub-continent. Neighbouring Bangladesh already hosts several hundred thousand refugees from Burma and says it cannot take any more Muslims are always the troublemakers Last edited: 25-Aug-12 08:38 AM

jainepal7 = servantofgod. He created a new account Muslim Peoples attack Lord Buddha Statue in Uttar Pradesh, India   On 17th August 2012 "Jihadi Protests in UP turns violent;attacked people,vandalised Buddha statue, shops and vehicles." Violence broke out in the Uttar Pradesh capital city on Friday as hundreds of irate Muslims, protesting violence against the community in Assam and Myanmar, took to the streets, attacked people, and vandalised shops and vehicles in their way. It all started after prayers on the last Friday of the m onth of Ramzan when a mob of over 2,000 people, owing allegiance to Jamaat-e- Ulema took out a procession from old Lucknow after the 'alvida namaaz' and began moving towards the Vidhan Sabha. Raising slogans against the killings of Muslims in Myanmar and Assam, the crowd turned violent even targeting the famous Buddha Park where they vandalised many statues and uprooted plants. The police posse present there remained silent spectators. The crowd was finally physically stopped at the Vidhan Sabha when the protestors wanted to proceed towards the chief minister's Kalidas Marg residence. The mob then turned its ire on the mediapersons and cameramen present at the legislature, attacking the journalists, breaking their cameras and vandalising the OB van of a national television channel. While the mob soon melted away, the mediapersons staged a sit-in demanding action and arrest of the people who attacked them. They said they would not move until the principal secretary for home came and met them and ordered arrest of the attackers. Violent protests have been reported from Kanpur also where protestors pelted stones on passers-by at Rizvi Road and Cycle Market areas after the namaaz. Rapid Action Force (RAF) has been deployed to prevent further escalation of violence.   More muslim propaganda. (Look at how they use a picture from an earthquake in China and claim Muslims in Burma are being attacked)
