NLD (National
League For Democracy) has recently been stepping up its violent resistance
against the Military by the brutal campaign of indiscriminate bombings and
targeted assassinations of soldiers, police, school teachers, and local administration
officials.
Underground leaders of NLD (calling themselves either
CRPH or NUG) has been recruiting the Gen-Z youths to join the ethnic rebels
like KIA (Kachin Independence Army) and KNLA (Karen National Liberation Army) to
get trained in basic military tactics and also explosives-handling and bomb-making
since last March.
Those hundreds and hundreds of jungle-hardened youths are now
back in mainland Burma and staging a ruthless campaign of indiscriminate bombings
and targeted assassinations.
Instead of
attacking hard targets those inexperienced youths are attacking soft targets
like schools and local administrative offices. In doing so, they are also accidentally
injuring and killing themselves by their own explosives and bombs. Because of
them the schools are becoming most dangerous places in Burma and requiring army
and police guards at almost every schools especially in the NLD strongholds.
