    The actions by Myanmar’s military on Facebook are among the first examples of an authoritarian government using the social network against its own peoplehttps://nyti.ms/2CN2Ggn

        This is an important article. And Facebook refuses to allow a translation of this in Burmese to be posted for its Myanmar users. Shame on Zuckerberg!

        Rogue militia of a rogue nation. Wonder why the world community has sealed its lips and folded its arms towards the plight and the genocide carried out in Myanmar and shamelessly acknowledged by the perverted supporters ??? Human Lives Do Matter ! Wake up, the World Community !!!

        Still waiting for the @ICCT_TheHague to prosecute the Myanmar's Military Regime for ethnic cleansing of the @rohingyarefugees.

        The reality is Muslim had been raping/killing non Muslims for some three years+. Finally Sikhs, Buddhists, Hindus, Christians had had enough of their behaviour, therefore they took action against Muslims-they were thrown out of country. They had a right to get rid of violent folk

        American govt attacked/destroyed Iraq/Libya for power, oil, sheer greed. Hopefully USA now have POTUS who more concerned with looking after real people, whilst also being strong as regard security for all. Myanmar people reacted to violence-they had had enough of Muslim violence.

        I think a Sunni Muslim talking about puppet govts is rather hypocritical given Saudi is run by previous dirt diggers who found oil & named theirselves “Kings & Princes”. Plus Saudi main exporter of terrorism as proven over many years. So think Glass houses & stones appropriate!
