In this case...going back to the 800s to 1000, Arab traders were an integral part of the Indian Ocean trade situation, and Islam was introduced into the country. Unlike invasion situations throughout the Middle East...this just quietly at the time, introduced itself into Sri Lanka. For roughly 700 years, this trend lingered on, and the Portuguese reshuffled the deck upon their arrival....moving Islamic communities to certain parts of the island.
My humble guess is that this scenario will open up a Buddhist discussion (they make up around 70 percent of the island’s religion), and like Myanmar from three years ago....there will be an effort to push Islamists off the isle entirely. The Buddhists have a simple philosophy....as long as you just quietly do your thing and don’t threaten anyone, you can have your ‘thing’. Once your ‘thing’ crosses the line and becomes a problem...you need to leave. So it wouldn’t surprise me if you see a fairly turbanant period starting up in Sri Lanka.
Yup
“There will be an effort to push Islamists off the isle entirely”
Where do you think they will go? I would rather the mooslimbs be pushed off a high story building. The same as they do to gays. Fair is fair.
Yep! And our “media” just can’t seem to figure out the cause of these bombings. They’re asking “what could have been done to prevent this senseless tragedy?”
Here’s two really obvious ideas: don’t let Muslims into your country first off. Second: eradicate them wherever you find them. We do the same with other cancers and they are a cancer on Mother Earth.
Second it.
