Myanmar’s military has been accused of genocide against the Rohingya in Rakhine state in a damning UN report that alleged the army was responsible for war crimes and crimes against humanity against minorities across the country.

You have to take the UN report worth a grain of salt. Reminds me of the Serbs massacring the Kosovians and mortaring that market, when in fact they hadn't and he Muslims had bombed the market. UN is a fraud, Burma may have done this but we have to see more evidence of this before the neo-cons and libs push for war.

Excellent comments all the way around. Nothing else really to add except its always prudent to be skeptical of anything our leaders tell us especially when what they tell us doesn't make sense.
