TIME CRIME: Response to the terrible article in TIME Magazine.

By Rick Heizman, San Francisco, June 22, 2013 (This paper is only addressing the following claim. There will be much more coming.) The introduction to Hannah Beechs article in TIME magazine claims that in parts of Asia it is friction between Buddhism and Islam that has killed hundreds, mostly Muslims. REALLY? Mostly Muslims? Just recently, in MALAYSIA, about a dozen Burmese Buddhists were savagely mutilated and killed - most were tortured, some had throats slit or heads cut off, females were raped - and last year (2012) there were also a dozen, or so, Burmese Buddhists similarly brutally killed in Malaysia. The killers were, in many of the cases, also from Burma, in other cases they were Malays. And, much of this latest wave of murder can be attributed to a Malay Photographer/ Journalist, who stirred up blood-thirsty hate against Buddhists with his doctored photos from Lashio. See it and read about it here:

Now, a question for Hannah Beech: Why were these Buddhists killed? None of them were doing anything wrong or illegal. Answer: Because they were Buddhists and also they were Burmese, and that was enough reason for the killers - who were all Muslims - to slaughter the Buddhists. And, in their world, they can even go to their holy mosque and receive praise and rewards for killing Buddhists. They may tell their kids about it, and tell them that when they grow up they can kill Buddhists too. Another question for Hannah Beech: How many Malays have been similarly killed in Burma? You must know the answer, because you are knowledgeable and fair, right? Answer: Zero. None. No Malays have been killed in Burma. Hannah Beech - 0, Reality - 1. _________________________________________________________________________ In April 2013, in INDONESIA, 8 Burmese Buddhists were attacked and beaten to death. Question for Hannah Beech: Why were these Buddhists killed? None of them were doing anything wrong or illegal.

Answer: Because they were Buddhists and also they were Burmese, and that was enough reason for the killers - who were Bengali Muslims (also known as Rohingya) - to smash the Buddhists to death. Another question for Hannah Beech: How many Indonesians have been similarly killed in Burma? Answer: Zero. None. No Indonesians have been killed in Burma. Hannah Beech - 0, Reality - 2. _________________________________________________________________________ In the ongoing violence against the Thai Buddhists in southern THAILAND, more than 5000 Thai Buddhists have been killed - including mothers, kids, school teachers and Buddhist monks. The number of Muslims killed is around 300 - almost all of them were armed and shooting as they were killed - after attacking and killing Thai Buddhists. Read here about the number of terrorist attacks in southern Thailand: http://www.scribd.com/doc/139527718/List-Muslim-Terrorists-Attacks-in-Southern-Thailand Hannah Beech: Why are the Thai Buddhists being savagely killed? They arent doing anything wrong or illegal. Answer: Because they are Buddhists, and the Muslims do not want anyone non-Muslim to live there. Read here about the Pattani Kingdom that they want to reestablish: http://www.scribd.com/doc/139527264/Thailand-Pattani-Jihad-Death-Fear They want that land to be pure Islamic land, and not-contaminated with other people and other religions. Thats called intolerance, bigotry, neo-Nazi-like, extremist, supremacist. The Muslims will deect those charges by referring to their holy book - the Quran - and they will tell you to look at it yourself, because it is the word of God (Allah), and cannot be questioned or revised. The Quran gives them justication to do the things that Muslims do - even if it bothers the indels (non-Muslims) or upsets them, or kills them - just read the Quran and do what it says, and you will be a great person in Allahs view. Kill Buddhists, kill Jews, kill all who dont believe in Allah. Take their property, take their women - all that they have is yours, because you are Muslim and they are not. Hannah Beech, you say that most of the victims are Muslim? How do you gure that? What kind of mathematics do you use? Hannah Beech - 0, Reality - 3. ______________________________________________________________________

Historically, the land that is now called BANGLADESH was Buddhist and then Hindu kingdoms for nearly 2000 years, until Muslim armies swept through India, killing or pushing Buddhists to the edges of their rule. Bangladesh - for a long time a Buddhist majority land, is now down to less than 1% Buddhists, and those remaining Buddhists are subject to attacks, destruction of temples, rapes, killings, burning of homes, kidnapping and converting women to Islam, and more. In the last 6 months there have been dozens of Buddhist temples destroyed, hundreds of Buddhist homes burned, many Buddhists killed. Hannah Beech - Why are these Buddhists under such attack and intolerance? They are not doing anything wrong or illegal. Answer: Because they are Buddhists, and the holy Quran says they are idol worshippers and polytheist and therefore Allah says cut off their heads.

From the Quran:

(and dont tell me it is out of context, and we dont know how to interpret it. I dont think any of these mean lets sing and dance together, and hug each other with true aecIon)
Make war on them unIl idolatry is no more and Allah's religion reigns supreme. - 8:39 Allah will humble the unbelievers. Allah and His apostle are free from obligaIons to idol-worshipers. Proclaim a woeful punishment to the unbelievers. - 9:2-3 I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike o their heads and strike o every ngerIp of them. - Sura 8.12 When you meet the unbelievers, smite their necks. - 47:4 (smite their necks means cut o their heads) When the sacred months are over, slay the idolaters wherever you nd them. Arrest them, besiege them, and lie in ambush everywhere for them. - 9:5 "Fight those who do not believe in Allah ... and who do not adopt the religion of truth from those who were given the Scripture - [ght] unIl they give the jizya willingly while they are humbled." -- 9:29 (Jizya is a tax that non-muslims had to pay in order to keep their own religion - for a Ime - when Muslims needed the skills and brains of non-Muslims. However, Buddhist and Hindus were not given a chance to pay jizya - they were only given the choice to convert or die, because Muslims were parIcularly intolerant of people who were not monotheist (believers in only one god).

Going back a little further here are some of the many massacres of Buddhists in Bangladesh. I cant nd any massacres of Muslims by the Buddhists in Bangladesh. Hannah Beech: Do you know of massacres of Muslims in Bangladesh by the Buddhists?

These are 5 of 13 large massacres of Buddhists in Bangladesh: 1971 - Bangladesh War of Independence: 3 million people killed in one of the largest genocides in history. The war had nothing to do with the Hindus and Buddhist minorities, but the opportunity was taken to eliminate many many Hindus and Buddhists. They were killed by Muslim Pakistanis and by Muslim Bengalis. June 26, 1981: Banraibari-Beltali-Belchari Massacre: Bangladeshi settlers (Muslims), under the protection of the Bangladesh army, invaded the Jumma area in the vicinity of Banraibari, Beltali and Belchari, murdered 500 Jumma men, women and children, then seized their homes, belongings, and farmland. The Jumma are a Buddhist minority. Sept 19, 1981: Telafang-Ashalong-Gurangapara-Tabalchari-Baronial Massacre: The Bangladesh army and Bangladeshi settlers attacked 35 Jumma villages including Telafang, Ashalong, Gurangapara, Tabalchari, and Baronial, in the Feni valley of the Chittagong Hill Tracts, and plundered and burned the villages, and killed many thousands of Buddhists men, women and children. The surviving villagers ed to the adjacent forests. Bangladesh was forced by the international community to repatriate them. These Jumma people were met by hostile Bangladeshi ofcials and were given the equivalent of $18 and were left to their fate. Return to their native villages was impossible because their homes and possessions had been appropriated by Muslim Bangladeshis. Many of them died of starvation and of diseases. June-August 1983: Golakpatimachara-Machyachara-Tarabanchari Massacre: Bangladesh armed forces and Bangladeshi immigrants from the atlands massacred the Jumma people of the villages of Golakpatimachara, Machyachara, Tarabanchari, Logang, Tarabanya, Maramachyachara, Jedamachyachara etc. Hundreds of houses were looted and burned, and 800 people were murdered. Most of the victims were old men, women and children. After clearing the area of the Jumma people the government settled Bangladeshi families there. May 31, 1984: Bhusanchara Massacre: A total of 400 Jumma and Chakma Buddhists including children and women were killed. Many women were gang raped and later shot dead. Seven thousand refugees crossed the border into the Indian state of Mizoram. A villager from Het Baria told Amnesty International: Even now I sometimes wake up in a cold sweat remembering the sight of the soldiers thrusting bayonets into private parts of our women. They were all screaming 'No Chakmas will be born in Bangladesh". Hannah Beech - Do you know any history of these countries? Do you care?

CHINA is Hannah Beechs specialty country. Hannah Beech - Do you know of the Panthay Rebellion (Chinese: Du Wenxiu Revolt)? In the mid 1800s, the Panthay (Hui) Muslims in Yunnan Province, China (bordering Burma) staged a sudden and very violent uprising and established an Islamic Kingdom in Yunnan, with Dali as the capital, after defeating a large Chinese Imperial Army. Afterwards, the Muslims were quickly conquering villages, towns, and city after city. The homes and buildings were pillaged and looted, the male populations were massacred, and the Chinese women were prizes for the Muslim ghters, who could do anything they wish with the women. After nearly 20 years in which the Chinese Imperial Government could not challenge the Muslims, they nally gathered the strength to wage an all-out war against the Panthay/Hui Muslims, with the help of French artillery experts. Thus, in less than 20 years from its rise, the power of the Panthay Muslims in Yunnan collapsed. The death toll was staggering - around one million people were killed. For a period of perhaps ten to fteen years following the collapse of the Panthay Muslim Rebellion, the Panthay minority was widely discriminated against by the Chinese, especially in the western areas bordering Burma. The Chinese were fed up with the Muslims for bringing about so much death and destruction, and subsequently many mosques, homes, and shops of the Muslims were burned and destroyed. Hannah Beech - Do you know why the Chinese were upset with the Panthay Muslims? Answer: because the Chinese suffered so much because of the intolerance, savagery, and supremacy of the Muslims, and their merciless treatment of the Chinese Buddhists, and the justication for that treatment that they say is Allahs great words in the holy Quran. Hannah Beech - 0, Reality - 5. ____________________________________________________________________

BURMA Hannah Beech - Do you know about the 1942 Massacre in Maungdaw, Rakhine State? It is the largest slaughter in contemporary Burmese history. Bengali Muslims (the word Rohingya was not known or used yet) slaughtered thousands and thousands of Buddhists and burned down all of the Buddhist villages, pagodas, temples and monasteries in the Maungdaw and Buthidaung areas. About 30,000 Rakhine Buddhist were killed in this absolute genocide, hundreds of villages were burned down, and around 100,000 Rakhine Buddhists were ethnically cleansed from their ancestral lands.

A British ofcer wrote at that time: "I have been told the harrowing tales of cruelty and suering inicted on the Arakanese (Buddhist) villages in the Rathaydaung area. Most of the villages on the west bank of the Mayu river have been burnt and destroyed by the (Bengali- Muslim) V Force. Hundreds of villagers are said to be hiding in the hills. It will be the Arakanese who will be ousted from their ancestral land and if they cannot win over (the Muslims) in Eme, then there can be no hope of their salvaEon. In 1948, the new central government, still trying to recover from the assassination of Bogyoke Aung San - refused outrageous demands of the minority Muslims in Arakan, and quickly the Muslims of Arakan declared jihad (holy war) on Burma. The Mujahidin launched a vicious campaign and destroyed all the Buddhist villages in northern Maungdaw Township (the southern parts had been destroyed 6 years earlier). On July 19, 1948 they attacked Ngapruchaung, and villages around it, and used a new tactic kidnapping Buddhist monks, and holding them as hostages, and killing them if they didn't get the money or conditions that they demanded. Hannah Beech - Do you know any of this history? It is very relevant and important. On May 13, 1988, the anniversary of the 1942 massacre of 30,000 native Rakhine Buddhist, the Rohingya Liberation Organization (RLO) led 50,000 Bengali-Muslims to try to quickly and violently take over the Maungdaw township. They rst destroyed a big Buddhist monastery and then began to burn all the wards where Rakhine lived, and planned to kill ALL Rakhine people in this area. But, their genocidal plan was stopped by the local army reinforced police force, and ever since then some Burmese Army units have been permanently stationed there to prevent another genocidal attack by the Muslims. For more than 70 years, since the 1942 massacre in Maungdaw, Bengali Muslims have engaged in training for, preparing for, and ghting war to achieve their goal of taking Arakan land, cleansing it of all other type of people, and breaking it off from the country of Burma. In more recent times there have been numerous Bengali Muslims captured in Afghanistan - in battle, or at terrorist training camps. Intelligence services of several countries have reported such items as: 90 members of the Arakan Rohingya National Organization (ARNO) were selected to attend a guerrilla warfare course, explosives course, and heavy-weapons courses held in Libya and Afghanistan in August 2001. 5 members of ARNO attended a high-ranking ofcers' course with Al Qaeda representatives in May 2000. They discussed military affairs, weaponry, and getting nancial help from Osama bin Laden.

Numerous contacts and connections and assistance from Islamic jihad groups in southern Thailand, southern Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan, Bangladesh and others. In 1977, Mujahid rebels and members of ARNO led by Sultan Mahmud, sent select members to Libya and met with Libyan leader Colonel Qadda. (Qadda thought of himself as the leader of the Arab Muslims and in his megalomania he projected himself as the leader of Muslims around the world.) Sultan Mahmuds group explained their intention was to transform Arakan into an Islamic State - to be called Arkistan - and they asked for Colonel Qadda and Libya to help them and the other resistance groups to wage a well-armed jihad against the Burmese central government. Shortly after that visit to Libya, a serious plot to elicit a full-blown Muslim insurrection throughout Burma and overthrow the government of Ne Win was discovered by the Burmese government. Bangladesh, and Libya were covertly involved in the conspiracy. However, subversive attempts to spark their nefarious plans failed as they were stopped by Burmese authorities. Many local Muslim conspirators were arrested, and that instigated fear of arrest or harm in many Bengali Muslims, and many ed back to Bangladesh. Hannah Beech - Do you know how the big violence stated last year on June 8, 2012, in Maungdaw? See here:
June, 2012, hundreds of armed Rohingya men run out the mosques after Friday prayers, running down the main streets in town, killing any Buddhist they catch, burning buildings... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDdWoGhBXVk&feature=BFa&list=PL43A5C1DC4DAEE467

Hannah Beech - You are so wrong, about most of the victims being Muslims, and so wrong about everything you wrote in your hateful article. Ill address and respond to all of it. Meanwhile, learn what really happened in Meiktila, and Oak-ken, and Lashio, and learn about the Panthay Muslim Rebellion in Yunnan, and about the OIC and all the false and fraudulent media made by the Muslims. And learn how to correctly use words like: Extremist, Militant, Nationalist, Hate-Speech, Neo-Nazi, Terror. By the standards that you accuse U Wirathu, you are far more hateful, and extremist. I dont know yet if you are simply ignorant and gullible, or if you are intentially trying to cause the death and destruction of Buddhists in Burma, Thailand and elsewhere, but it is clear that you ARE going to cause attacks, death and destruction of Buddhist men, women and children. Hannah Beech - 0, Reality - 6. Hannah - Reality wins. There are far more Buddhists killed - again and again. _____________________________________________________________

Listen to the human voices of the Rakhine victims:


A young Rakhine girl tells of escaping while others, including her family were beaten to death: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QvLLJo2C3jM&feature=BFa&list=PL43A5C1DC4DAEE467 2 Rakhine boys tell of the horrors of the Rohingya killing the Buddhist: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0DGG8L3i9Y&feature=BFa&list=PL43A5C1DC4DAEE467 An old monk tells of he, monks, and laypeople trying to escaping the huge gangs of muslims, surrounded by armed muslims the monk had to ght for the rst time in his life as he saw the mobs killing Buddhist people including women and kids: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yc3y43gUF_8&feature=related Fake videos and pictures try to show the Rohingya as the victims - easily proven false: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TCXOMBgFno&feature=relmfu Fake Media part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xn2IXY9FNd0&feature=channel&list=UL THIS ONE IS VERY VERY HORRIBLE - DO NOT SHOW TO CHILDREN - BE AWARE THAT IT SHOWS VERY DISTURBING SCENES Hundreds of Rohingya are in a circle. Buddhist are being violently beaten to death by Rohingya muslims yelling 'God is Great', More Buddhist are thrown in to the circle. A muslim policeman checks the pulse to see if bloody broken bodies are still alive, if they are he signals to continue, if they are dead new Buddhist people are thrown in and the crowd of muslims cheers loudly and watches them die: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DmSPcPcMYPE A Muslim woman School Teacher tells of the killings she saw committed by the 'Bangali Muslims' (Rohingya). She is Kaman Muslim (local Muslim, not Rohingya), and she tells of the fanatic hatred the Rohingya have, even against the Kaman muslims, she also had to escape or they would kill her. She says (in her words) the Rohingya have a terrible evil in them and it will not change they do not know compassion or tolerance -and they intend to kill or push away ALL Buddhist, Hindus, and others around them. This brings up the point that Kaman Muslims are recognized as a minority group in Rakhine State and in the rest of Burma, and they are generally accepted because they live peacefully and are an integrated part of the culture. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FspYrhXTegE&feature=endscreen Rakhine School Teacher tells of the slaughter of the Buddhist in June 2012 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxaF2WRDRBk A Burmese man, speaking good English, who founded an organization called Youth Development Association, in Maungdaw describes Friday June 8, 2012 when hundreds and hundreds of 'Bangali Muslims' (Rohingya) poured out of the mosques, armed with weapons, and surged down the main streets killing any Buddhist they could catch - including women and children - and burning the homes and shops and the Buddhist monasteries. When his father was young Maungdaw was almost all Buddhist. After many massacres it is now 95% Muslim, and the leaders and imams of the muslims are inciting the killing of the 30,000 remaining Buddhist in the township, and the destruction of their homes, temples and monasteries. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Cv62cx7mX8&feature=related Terrorist attack #1 in south Thailand: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hAMtsY8tWmg&feature=related Terrorist attack #2 in south Thailand: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SmP57VgXr2A&feature=related
