All 14 Huge Mosques In Meikhtilar Destroyed Except One!

A huge Saudi-funded mosque burning in Meikhtilar.
From almost zero in the 1960s to more than 30,000 in 2013 the Muslim population grew massively in the small town Meikhtilar the famous lake city of Buddhist heartland in Middle Burma. And believe it or not they’ve built 14 massive mosques and madrassas with free flowing petrol-dollars from Wahabi Saudi Arabia.

Without counting the regularly-shifting military-population from the LID-99’s cantonment area and Shandae the second largest air-force base in Burma the total population of Meikhtilar is only about 100,000 and, believe it or not, the Muslims represent 30% of Meikhtilar residents.

With financial support from the Islamic world outside Burma the Meikhtilar Muslims prosper enviably amidst the Buddhist majority who have been agitated deeply by the growing number of affluent foreign-looking Muslims in the town.

The Arakan race riots last year and the unrelenting pressure on Burma from the Saudi-funded OIC-led Islamic world to grant the millions of illegal Bengali-Muslims on the Bangladeshi border Burmese citizenship have made the Buddhists, not just in Meikhtilar but the whole Burma, slowly simmering with deep anger for a while now.

Burmese nationalist politicians almost exploded when the so-call UN Special Reporteur For Human Rights in Burma and that anti-Burmese-Buddhist Tomas Quintana openly called for the repeal of Burma's 1982 Citizenship Law so that millions and millions of illegal Bengali-Muslims will be granted Burmese citizenship.

The perceived or actual control of local NLD - Aung San Suu Kyi’s National League for Democracy - offices by the Meikhtilar Muslims has also inflamed that resentment and anger more.

“The Muslims already have money and commercial control and now they also want political control over us. Why?” the Meikhtilar Buddhists asked themselves and they do not like it at all, naturally. The Nationalist Buddhist monks’ 969 campaign to patronize only the Buddhist businesses also has been raising general awareness of growing Muslim’s commercial power.

Town Muslims’ Commercial Control over Rural Buddhists

The main problem of semi-rural town like Meikhtilar is that the Burmese rural population (Bamars) from all the villages in the township has to rely completely on the commercial class from the town.

The main produce like peanuts and sesame and toddy-palm-sugar from the villages after a good harvest are sold and distributed all over the country through the town merchants who are also the principal financiers lending money or providing cash-advances against next year produce to the village people who are deeply religious and suspicious of people from other religions.

And when that commercial class is rapidly changing from the rich Burmese-Buddhists (Bamars) to richer Bengali-Muslims (Kalars) the village people do not like it at all. They begin to think that they are being taken advantage of by the greedy Islamic foreigners.

The most important commercial dealing between the villages and the town’s commercial class is buying and selling of gold in the form of jewelleries. In a country with hardly any commercial banking system most rural families keep their savings as gold jewelleries purchased from the town gold shops and they also frequently sell their gold back to the same gold shops whenever they need cash.

And when these simple-minded Buddhist villagers buy gold from Muslim shops they have to pay premium price as hand-crafted jewelleries but when they sell the same gold jewelleries back to the same Muslim shops the Muslims give then much lower price as just raw gold metal. Basically the Buddhists are being screwed twice by the greedy Muslims on same gold piece and they know it but they have no choice as the Bengali-Muslims gain near monopoly on the gold trade in most rural towns in Burma.

Opening a profitable gold shop requires a substantial capital investment and because of the availability of foreign Islamic money coming through their mosques Bengali-Muslims are able to rapidly take over most gold shops in the rural towns like Meikhtilar. The illegal Bengali-Muslims and their descendants are now the moneyed-class in Burma's most rural towns.

And the inevitable result is that the rural Buddhist-Burmese are quickly becoming totally dependent on the Muslims in the town and they deeply resented that heavy commercial dependency.

That’s why the very first trigger for the Meikhtilar race-riots was a serious gold shop dispute which the Buddhist-Burmese considered as just one of regular unscrupulous acts of greedy town Muslims (Kalars). Killing of a Buddhist monk was the second trigger for the Meikhtilar race-riots.

Rapid Islamization of Burmese towns by Illegal Bengali-Muslims

All hundreds of Burmese-Buddhists arrested and charged by Thein Sein Government for the recent riots in Meikhtilar and other rural towns in Middle-Burmar are all poor Buddhist villagers seriously affected by the rapidly changing demographics of Islamization in Burma by the illegal Bengali-Muslims, initially from the Bangladeshi border, rapidly spreading all over Burma.

After India-Pakistan war in 1971 and the establishment of the Islamic Republic of Bangladesh and the subsequent turmoils in that country had forced millions of Bengali-Muslims into Burma. Even the Bangladeshi Ambassador in Burma admitted in 1975 that at least half a million illegal Bangladeshis were in Burma then.

These millions of illegal Bengali-Muslims then had dissipated into the proper Burma and with their rapid breeding that illegal Bengali population has grown into more than three million Bengali-Muslims claiming Burmese citizen ship now without any loyalty to Burma and her native Burmese-Buddhist people.

And that is the root cause of the burning of Muslims and their mosques and madrassas in Middle Burma just last week.

Thein Sein’s Government and ASSK’s NLD can blame as much as they wanted on certain political interest groups and even on the nationalist monks and their 969 campaign for the recent race riots or even on the recalcitrant army. They can also arrest and charge and jail as many Burmese-Buddhist rioters as they wanted for the horrific murders and the arson and the destruction these poor Burmese-Buddhists willingly committed.

But the anti-Islamic and anti-Bengali-Muslim riots will definitely be coming back frequently from time to time to haunt them ruling class as long as the root cause of these so-called race riots the rapid Islamization of Burma by illegal Bengali-Muslims is not totally removed.

Especially while their Islamic brothers Bangladeshi Muslims are committing the horrible Buddhist-cleansings in their former homeland Bangladesh. 

(To please the restless Buddhist masses all over Burma Thein Sein Government yesterday announced that all the Mosques destroyed  in Meikhtilar and other towns are not allowed to rebuild unless the Muslims can show the solid proof that their mosques were originally built with the legal permission from the Ministry of Religious Affairs.)

NLD’s  Unbelievable Indifference to the Plight of Burmese-Buddhists

Zubai Osama Win Htein.
(The caricature from one Nationalist Web Site.)
The serious accusations repeatedly levelling at ASSK’s NLD by Shin Wirathu-led nationalist Buddhist monks are that the NLD is happily embracing the affluent town-Muslims into its rank and file while basically ignoring the plight of Burmese Buddhists from the villages, caused by the same Bengali-Muslims.

Former Burmese army captain Win Htein also a former political prisoner and ASSK’s security-chief is now the NLD Member of Parliament for Meikhtilar and he was in Meikhtilar during that three days of race-riots. Following was the direct translation of what he bitterly said of the so-called violent Burmese-Buddhist mob from his hometown Meikhtilar.

“I’m a true Meikhtilar local and I’ve never witnessed such brutal-devastation in my life. Not even in the 8-8-88 uprising. Not in the 1967 Chinese-Burmese race-riots. The Muslims here have been living here for generations. I know most of them personally. Many of them are from our NLD.

I felt sad and totally ashamed of what Buddhist-Burmese had brutally done to them Muslims. I went around and saw the atrocities and killing with my own eyes. Burmese-Buddhists are unbelievably wild and cruel. Yesterday I personally tried to stop the mob and they even turned on me their local MP.

I also saw the killings of our Muslims with my own eyes. And most of the killed here in Meikhtilar were Muslims. I’m saying these not because I’m siding with the Muslims. I believe the Muslims are our people too. They are an ethnic-nationality in our country, a kind of ethnic group. I couldn’t believe my own eyes after seeing many Buddhist monks were inciting those atrocities and even leading the mobs of Burmese-Buddhists.”

Min Ko Naing and Muslims.
Min Ko Naing the well-known leader of the so-called 8-8-88 Generation Student Leaders group also berated and badmouthed the Buddhists of Meikhtilar for the devastating race-riots. Here was what he said of the Burmese-Buddhists in Meikhtilar and accusing the army as the  behind-the-scene instigators of anti-Muslim race-riots.

“This mob is an armed organization. A mob of people with weapons in their hands are killing a person for no good reason right in front of the security force’s eyes. As humanists, we just want to offer people protection.

The other thing I would like to say is that some rioters jostled the police and pushed against their riots shields. The way the police treat peaceful demonstrators and the way they treat violent rioters is different. They are just too lenient to the armed-rioters.

Online propaganda has a lot of influence on people. Those who go online and write about events should take responsibility for what they write. But, many have uploaded hateful comments and made allegations under the cloak of anonymity. Nowadays you cannot afford to close your eyes and just listen to the news. Much of it is propaganda. Even the photos might be fake.

But the people of Meikhtilar must be aware of the bad-old-army. They could be using the anarchy brought upon us by the anti-Muslim race riots like they did before in our 8-8-88 Uprising. We don’t want to be under their war-boots again, do we?”

Min Ko Naing might be saying what he really believes in, but unlike him NLD's Win Htein is only protecting his personal and political interests as the Muslim votes and Muslim money got him elected to the Burma Parliament. One thing he appears not to understand is Muslims are just electing him as a temporary measure to protect their own interests.

Once they have the numbers they will dump the Burmese-Buddhist Win Htein like a heavy rock on their collective back and elect their own kind, a Bengali-Muslim MP for Meikhtilar. But they haven't got the numbers yet till more Bengali-Muslims arrive from the border. They're just patiently waiting for that to happen.

And the Nationalists Burmese-Buddhists' job is to prevent that possible scenario from realizing by burning their mosques and thus driving them Muslims out of Meikhtilar, as simple as that.

NLD and the 8-8-88 Student Politicians Are Becoming Socialists

George Soros in Rangoon (April 2013).
The alarming trend among pro-democracy activists and popular Burmese politicians like NLD’s Win Htein and the 8888 Group’s Min Ko Naing is that they all are quickly becoming so-called Social Democrats - just a progressive-sounding name for left-wing Socialists and hardcore Communists in the Europe and the United States.

At this moment one of the self-proclaimed leaders of that left-leaning Socialists George Soros the American multi-billionaire and the founder of Open Society is in Rangoon and he has been secretly meeting the leaders of his pet group the 8-8-88 Students-turned-wannabe-politicians.

The European Socialists have been courting the NLD for a while now since ASSK was under house arrest and NLD has been sending its wannabe-politicians overseas to attend various meet-and-greet conferences of the Socialist parties in Europe. A group of NLD youths had just visited Poland for their Socialist lessons.

Just last June 2012 our Win Htein the NLD MP for Meikhtilar attended the four days long “The Summit of Alliance of Liberal Democrats for Europe (ALDE) and The Council of Asian Liberals and Democrats (CLAD)” held in the Brussels of Belgium. The conference was attended by the Socialist MPs from the parliaments from Europe, East Asia, and South-East Asia.

Win Htein himself acknowledged that he was directly selected and invited by the executive committees of ALDE and CLAD for his left-leaning, progressive, inclusive, and liberal political views. In other word he was openly admitting that he is a proud Socialist.

In my humble opinion the seriously left-leaning politicians in Burma are on the verge of copying the same multicultural policies from the European Socialists. And thus repeating the same serious mistakes by European Socialists of letting the Muslims and the Islamists take over their European nations and destroy their own cultures and societies for no good reason other than progressive inclusiveness widely known as the mulculturalism.

These stupid Socialists whether they are from Europe or USA or Asia didn’t realise soon enough that Muslims and their Islamic culture do not want to coexist with other cultures and religions but only to dominate or completely destroy other cultures and religions and our Buddhism is number one in their target list.

And while the European Socialists are now paying a very dear price for their mistakes our stupid Socialist politicians in Burma are now trying hard to copy their bad policies of Inclusion and Multiculturalism.

Will History Repeat and Kill Buddhist-Peasants Again Like in 1930?

1930 Peasant Revolution leader Saya San.
These stupid Burmese Socialists like NLD’s politicians and 8-8-88 Generationers are oblivious of what had happened in 1930. Or they have completely forgotten about their grandfathers and fathers who had given their lives and bloods for the independence of Buddhist Burma these so-called politicians have inherited.

The Saya San Peasant Revolt in 1930 was caused by almost exact situations like now. Only difference between then and now was the moneyed-class then was Hindu-Indian-Chittys and the moneyed-class now is Muslim-Bengalis.

Saya San an ex-Buddhist-monk led the bloody peasant revolt against that Kalar moneyed-class and the British colonial government, but his year-long rebellion was brutally put down by the massive Indian Brigades brought in directly from India by the British Government.

Muslim Indian troops led by British officers machin-gunned down thousands and thousands of rebelling Burmese-Buddhist peasants armed only with swords and spears, then chopped the heads of their leaders, and gruesomely displayed their heads on bamboo pikes in the bazaars of major Burmese towns in the rebellious regions. Saya San finally was captured and hung.

If that history of peasant rebellion repeats again in the near future who will be the suppressor of our peasants? Will the soldiers of our Burmese army gun down brutally the people who are exactly like their parents and uncles and cousins just because some stupid Socialist lefties running the government of that days order them to do so? I hope not!
