I do not know the people behind International Unity for Freedom & Equality, but I can see on their blog that they are friends with people I trust completely.
Transcription: “Other areas I have watched with this organization is Sri Lanka, where we have the Buddhist communities. They basically had monks killed while praying in their shrines, because they politely asked the Muslim community to not build a mosque next to their holy shrines.”

Funny, I didn’t read about that in Time magazine.
John Haller says
Time magazine in this particular case(Buddhist Bin Laden) seemed to be light on fact and big on opinion. If Time magazine didn’t report it, then it didn’t happen. We know better though, don’t we.
Jaladhi says
Finally, Muslim killing and mayhem has reached Sri Lanka also!!
Is there any country in this world where Muslims don’t kill non-Muslims?? Maybe NYTimes, Time magazine, BBC, Reuters etc can point this out to us!!
mortimer says
So much for INTERFAITH DIALOGUE. No one talks back. Islam encourages bullying and criminality so that Islam may become a supreme political force.
philo vaihinger says
In Sri Lanka? How awful. My condolences.
Steffen Larsen says
Well, Buddhists have noticed what happened long ago to Buddhism on the Subcontinent, and they very well know what will happen to Buddhism elsewhere when Islam becomes larger than an impotent minority.
Buddhists are leaning back, Muslims naturally pretend they do not understand a word of it and are screaming bloody murder and revenge.
Semeru says
It looks very much like I had my last comment deleted, where I pointed out that moslems in Sri Lanka are the one who are attacked.
From above
They basically had monks killed while praying in their shrines, because they politely asked the Muslim community to not build a mosque next to their holy shrines.
There is no reporting that any Buddhists being killed, Also in Sri lanka, buddhist do not ask politely, they rip the mosques down

And do not forget the LTTE (Hindu) massacre of moslems.

@ Semeru – don’t be too sure of your facts, especially if you don’t live in that country or a neighboring country…

I think you should look at the article again, also note that it is titled
Probe recent arrests of Sri Lankan abroad on terror charges
Over the recent years, moslems have not attacked any buddhist shrines or Hindu temples in Sri Lankan

I live in Sri Lanka. This news is TRUE.
Muslims killed 2 Buddhist monks while they were meditating. The monks had very politely asked Muslims not to convert a warehouse into an illegal mosque. It happened in Colombo-14.
Wherever there are Muslims there is killings of “non believers”.
ishara says
I live in colombo itself n I never heard of Buddhist monks being killed! Then wat abt the cruel things done to the Muslims by the Buddhist group called bodu bala sena?
Semeru says
I live in Sri Lanka. This news is TRUE.
How about some links to support your claim

@Marco

Please give reference to at least one news item.
