The Rohingya are Muslim Bengalis. Pakistan didn’t exist before 1947 .
True, but in the convulsions of ‘Partition’ and pre-partition , when the Brits called the shots , and in the several centuries prior , these’Bengali muz where shuffled around . British ‘owned’ Burma then as well , so it was up to them to flush the excess populations anywhere that it was expedient . To them! These ‘Bengalis’ were never invited in to Burmese territory , they were imposed . And since the great and powerful Burmese kings and kingdoms had been reduced by the British superior force of arms , they had no choice . Later on (now!) they had/have a choice . Yet they are condemned for wanting to reclaim their own country,land and culture. Is the U.S. going to be in the same jam a century from now ?
