FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda In a Saturday statement, Chairman of the Majlis (parliament) National Security and Foreign Policy Committee Alaeddin Boroujerdi alluded to the massive rights violations against the Muslim minority in Myanmar, saying, “The lack of a serious response from the UN Security Council and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) is totally unacceptable.”
He also lashed out at the international human rights organizations and the West for their silence over the incidents.
Reports say 650 Rohingya Muslims were killed as of June 28 during clashes in the western region of Rakhine. This is while 1,200 others are missing and 80,000 more have been displaced.
Boroujerdi called on UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and OIC Secretary General Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu to adopt immediate measures aimed at putting an end to the violence against the Muslims in Myanmar.
Last Friday, Myanmar’s President Thein Sein said Rohingya Muslims must be expelled from the country and sent to refugee camps run by the United Nations.
The government of Myanmar refuses to recognize Rohingyas, who it claims are not natives and classifies as illegal migrants, although the Rohingya are said to be Muslim descendants of Persian, Turkish, Bengali, and Pathan origin, who migrated to Myanmar as early as the 8th century.
Even Myanmar’s democracy icon Aung San Suu Kyi has kept quiet on the atrocities committed against the Rohingya Muslims.
Ironically, just days after she received a peace prize, Suu Kyi told reporters she did not know if Rohingyas were Myanmarese.
The UN says decades of discrimination have left the Rohingyas stateless, with Myanmar implementing restrictions on their movement and withholding land rights, education and public services.
