Myanmar's de-facto leader Aung San Suu Kyi has claimed that the crisis in Rakhine state is being distorted by a "huge iceberg of misinformation".

In her first comments on the latest Rohingya crisis, she said tensions were being fanned by fake news promoting the interests of terrorists.

Imagine there’s no Islam
It’s easy if you try
No jihad around us
No need to wonder why
Imagine all the Muslims swimming out to sea

Imagine there’s no Mecca
It isn’t hard to do
No moon to kill or die for
And no Medina too
Imagine all the people living life in peace

Malaysia has taken a lot .... a very brief history of Islam expansion in tropical southeast asia - When the so-called ‘Turkic’ hordes first surged out of the now Afghanistan region , after Islam had rooted itself there , after the failure of the Mongols attempts to eradicate it entirely , The moslems set upon India with a vengeance , There were too many hindus to kill out with the genocides of the day but the perceived god less’ Buddhist suffered mightily . Ultimately being driven from India almost entirely and fleeing/retreating to fastness of the high Himalayas and eastward into the lightly populated jungles of Southeast Asia . Eventually the moslems , who had risen and fallen in power , over a millennium , followed . Now they form an underclass in most SEA countries , yet almost genetically , the Buddhists remember . They remember that when the moslems become a majority in any society they rise up and try to wipe out everyone else , other than moslems . The Burmese know this . Muslims are only kind , timid , wretched and vulnerable ONLY when in a super minority . They are determined to keep that dynamic from ever shifting , or changing , ever again. Frankly , I cannot say as I blame them one bit . There is absolutely nothing to be gained by encouraging moslem societal expansion , or inroads , in non-traditionally muslim countries . They want to be muslim? Stay in those countries . No more expansion . It’s a cancer in the fabric of humanity .

Good for Myanmar; everyone needs to get started on the final solution to the Muslim problem.

This chick is a LEGEND of the Left...she is basically the female version of Nelson Mendela. She won the friggen NOBEL PEACE PRIZE (in 1991, I think)...she basically hated the military government there, but would not leave, as she knew that she couldn’t then return - so house arrest for a very long time.

But her first love, unlike the Alt-Left, is her HOME COUNTRY - which is Burma, in her case.

She sees the Muslim minority acting like just about every other Muslim minority - so she wants an end to the terrorism and killings.

So now she’s nothing but Shiite in the view of the US and European Left - simply because she refuses to support Islamic killings of, almost always, innocent low-level security forces.
