Malaysia: 18 Buddhists killed in series of “mysterious and unexplained murders”

Dec 14, 2014 7:40 am By Nicolai Sennels

As usual when Muslims murder Myanmar Buddhists, the press never writes about who killed whom – they just write about “clashes.” In the article, the Jakarta Globe tips its hand when it writes that the murder victims are “Myanmar nationals.” The thing is that Muslims can not be Myanmar nationals – so it must have been people from the other party, the Buddhists, who got killed. From 10news.dk:

Police have detained 15 people from Myanmar over a string of gruesome murders in a popular Malaysian tourist destination, and believe the killings are linked to ethnic unrest in their native country, reports said on Friday.

Public anxiety has risen in Malaysia’s historic state of Penang over the past few months as mutilated corpses or severed body parts have turned up — with at least 18 mysterious and unexplained murders of Myanmar nationals.

Authorities had made little comment until now, but the state’s police chief was quoted on Friday saying they now believe the killings are linked to Myanmar’s sectarian bloodshed — where there have been violent clashes between Muslims and Buddhists.

For some reason, Malaysia is not mentioned in the Wikipedia post on the Persecution of Buddhsts – maybe somebody could address that?

    Malaysian police said they considered the case closed after the offending temple was destroyed (sarc).

    Just to be clear, “violent clashes between Muslims and Buddhists” are NOT “sectarian”: they are inter-religious. It seems to be necessary to point this out. The uncritical use of “labels” muddles the meaning of the words.

    Michael Copeland: Good point about using the word “sectarian”. I suppose that if the Theravadins and Mahayana went after each other we could call it “sectarian”. It’s further interesting to note that whereas the culprits in Buddhist persecution of Muslims are Burmese Therevadins, the thugs take out their ire on folks who are presumably Mahayana of Chinese descent (which is who the Buddhists in Penang are).

    As for the persecution of Buddhists, our MSM has noticed it in Communist persecution of Lamaists in Tibet.

    The Wiki article on Hinduism in Malaysia contains some straightforward talk:

    “Public anxiety has risen in Malaysia’s historic state of Penang over the past few months as mutilated corpses or severed body parts…”

    Mutilated corpses? Muhammad’s followers wouldn’t do such a thing, or…would they?

    “If God gives me victory over Quraysh in the future I will mutilate 30 of their men.’ When the Muslims saw the apostle’s grief and anger against who had thus treated his uncle, they said, ‘By God, if God gives us victory over them in the future we will mutilate them as no Arab has ever mutilated anyone’ (613).”
    Biography of the Prophet, Ibn Ishaq p.387

    Maybe there’s a serial killer running around? I bet his name has 5 letters, starts with an ‘a’, ends with an ‘h’ and rhymes with “allah”. It’s the same guy who killed muhammad, so i believe muslims would love to see him caught and judged:

      Totally agree. Join forces, confront, and watch them scatter.
