    There is a huge gap between the Bengali-driven hypothesis regarding the alleged persecution of

     Muslims and what that is of a verity.

    The external pressure stench is getting worse making abuse of the human rights mantle.

    It is in a mode of conspiracy that the Bengali issue has been maneuvered into the center of

    raging international forums over and above the furore of media campaigns. The frequencies of

    Myanmar-bashing gatherings seem to proliferate unabated and in rapid succession.There has been a rising chorus from the academic radicals whose mission is to charge

    Myanmar with the crime of genocide allegedly committed against the alien Bengalis. The

    pedantic intellectuals offered politicized, tendentious views on the plight of Bengali interlopers,

    having the genocide inference funneled through the medium of seminars and conferencesorganized at the Sharia-compliant universities, which enjoyed outpouring of donations from the

    lobbyists with Saudi connections. A significant vested interest is involved in the dissemination of

    their views on the Bengali problem.The professoriate are not alone in the genocide witch-hunt club, the United Nations

    Special rapporteurs, human rights racketeers, Nobel peace laureates, editorialists as well as

    conspirators and the fifth columnists who would be loath to admit that they are being cozenedby the plutocrats playing the human rights card to serve the political agenda of Bengali

    separatists.

    Working in tandem, the Muslim rabble rousers offered fictitious stories which thedemagogic proxies recycled in exaggerated rhetoric in their efforts to orchestrate into the gravity

    of persecution of the illegal Bengalis to the point that Buddhists were criminated for genocide,

    no matter how fallacious and lack of credibility was the allegation.

    The conflated efforts to slavishly strew anti-Myanmar and anti-Buddhist rhetoric based onthe prevarication adduced by the Bengalis emphatic on genocide, however, flunked as it did not

    perfectly reflect the factuality.

    Attested to this ominous failure was the statement of the United States issued on March 21,2016, which said that the treatment of Bengalis in Myanmar was not genocide.

    2The State Department reported it's finding to the US Congress which had asked to look into

    the allegations that an effort was underway to wipe out the Bengal community. The

    congressional action was prompted by opprobrious Matthew Smith of the Fortify Rights who

    launched a shrill campaign being culminated in sponsoring a congressional hearing wherein heastounded the term genocide in expressing the alleged brutality against the Bengali Muslims.

    Much as the sustained propaganda of the apologetic zealots might have been relentless inadvancing the Bengali political agenda, their promulgation of genocide did not carry weight with

    the general public as they did not concede the charges against Myanmar let alone to undertake

    arbitrary interference in its national affairs.The hunch-men of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, who are committed themselves

    to gratify the paymasters, are bound to decry Myanmar as they did since they are not responsible

    for what they said. They have no price to be paid but a price to be gained in serving the political

    purpose of the interest group.In point of fact the self-serving sycophants, who trade upon the plight of Bengali Muslims to

    meet their own end, do not possess the authority of national governments which do not own uptheir views.The planned conference at Wolfson college, Oxford to be held on May 11, 2016, like its

    predecessors, will depict the same stereotypical picture of Myanmar and procreate the vindictive

    hatred for it, given the fact that the organizer and a certain number of participants are the samelot of OIC lackeys who are motivated by selfish stimulus, working for the interest group that

    pays them.

    Ranting aloud about genocide being committed against the alien Bengalis Myanmar will be

    berated in parity with Hitler's Nazi Germany, Starlin's Union of Soviet Socialist Republics andPol Pot's Campuchia. But there has never been mentioned the first ever genocide committed to

    the Armenians in the Ottoman Empire or the slaughter of millions of Muslims by fellow

    Muslims themselves on political, religious and ethnic grounds in places such as Indonesia,Bangladesh, Somalia, Sudan, Afghanistan and the Middle East.

    It is ironic that the Buddhists were accused of committing heinous crimes against the

    Muslims in Myanmar, while genocide perpetrators to an overwhelming degree are Muslims, andfor that matter crimes against humanity in the form of ethnic and religious cleansing of

    minorities as well as other religions are on the rampage in the Muslim nations.

    Myanmar has widely been condemned for restrictions and human rights violations against the

    Bengalis, while the critics turned a blind eye to the same mistreatments of Palestinians in theArab world.

    It may be noted that the Bengali issue was deliberated alongside with the Palestinian question

    at the 13th Islamic Conference of the OIC held in Istanbul, Turkey from April 10-15, 2016.Tellingly, Arab countries, with the exception of Jordan, denied citizenship to the Palestinians,

    including children born in the host countries (violation of Article 7 of the Convention on the

    Rights of the child), the rights to vote or to run for office in national elections and propertyownership. Targeted by the government security operations in the name of terrorism, the

    Palestinians suffer severe travel restrictions. They are not qualified for social security and health

    care. Subjected to limited university admission they are banned from a wide variety ofemployments, especially syndicated professions, such as medicine, engineering and law.

    In regard to much criticized living conditions in the Bengali Internally Displaced Persons(IDP)camps it is appropriate to excerpt a quote from Olga Kkazan's article in The Washington Post of

    November 30, 2012, with reference to the remarks made by the British member of Parliament

    Gerald Kaufman on his 2011 visit to the refugee camps in Lebanon.

    "When I went to Gaza in 2010 I thought I had seen the worst that that could be seen of theappalling predicament of Palestinians living in conditions which no human being should be

    expected to endure. But what I saw in the camps in Lebanon is far worse and far more hopeless.

    The conditions are unspeakable, but over 400,000 of our fellow human beings this is their life

    today, tomorrow and for a future that cannot even be foreseen. At least in Gaza, frightful though

    the situation is, the people are free within the confines of their blocked prison. In the camps of

     Lebanon they are not free."

    These measures of marginalization and discrimination against the Palestinians are meant to

    guard them from integration into the Arab society.

    Bombastic on the mantra of genocide the role of Bengali supporters who drummed up theidealistic rhetoric on the solution of the ongoing problem in Myanmar is all about to playact the

    Bengali political strategy with the sole purpose to bolster their infeasible proposition.In that vein, the Bengali-focused West and the United Nations Organization whichperverted truth about illegal Bengali intruders persistently hurled invective against Myanmar

    accusing it of violation of human rights plangent on the Bengali political playback.

    In the attempts to enforce an arbitrary solution in favour of the illegal immigrant Bengalis,the overbearing West and the flagitious world organization are so much consumed with bias that

    it comes to the point of raising a question as to whether the boastful elitism is morally

    upstanding.

    Myanmar feels that it has been besieged under the increasing pressure of politically correctinternational players to resolve the Bengali issue despite being far off the apperception of the

    source of the predicament, which in fact is enrooted in the religiously aspired political strategy of

    the Bengali secessionists.The crux of the matter is that the Bengalis are themselves attributing to the root cause of the

    dilemma. What lays open to the Bengali Muslims is that they remained entrenched in the parody

    of self-identification of them as a national group in the charade of "Rohingya" ethnicity, whichfed the smoldering resentment and bred bitterness and rancour towards the Bengali separatists.

    The mounting pressure exerted by the external players was not just obsessive but

    coercive. They are too emphatic to permit a sound judgement in driving the Bengali agenda,

    without grappling the real situation in Rakhaing state where vexation and hatred is palpable inboth communities following the 2012 strife which is the deepest racial split after 1942 conflict.

    Not only has the momentum of pressure been unduly exerted commanding the government

    in hypocritical elitism to recognize the self-designated ethnicity of Bengalis as "Rohingya" inthe status of a national race and to grant them carte blanche citizenship in recession of the 1982

    Citizenship Law, the international actors are wretchedly engrossed in the process of gearing up a

    rouge drive to snoop into any political and social entanglement relating to the Bengalis no matterhow trivial is the matter in question, having it banged up in exaggerated distortion and fear

    mongering tactics, which to all intents and purposes is nothing short of impertinent interference

    with internal affairs of a sovereign nation.

    The ultimatum to grant wholesale citizenship to the illegal Bengalis has become the all-encompassing focus of the critics. The basic issue considering the citizenship of the Bengali

    squatters is not about how to marginalize socially or economically but rather what they are to

    assume political dominance though demographic proliferation, aimed at making the indigenous

    Rakhaings minority in their ancestral land where the Bengali land-grabbers constitute more thanone third of the total population. They have attained majority in the ratio of 97 to 3 over the

    native Rakhaings in the Maungdaw and Buthidaung area which is adjacent to Bangladesh.The political strategy of illegal immigrant Bengalis, which is wangled in the holistic

    approach to the demand for the concocted ethnicity, rolls down the road to the rights of

    citizenship and to a separate Islamic state. The settled Bengalis executed in 1948 the Mujtahidseparatist movement to establish the projected Muslim state having bifurcated the Rakhaing

    state, which they pledged to accede to their former homeland, currently Bangladesh.

    There are incontrovertible evidences that Bengali Islamic separatism is not a mirage as

    deluded by the publicists. The "Charter of Demands of Arakan Muslims" issued in June 1951constitutes documentary proof of it.

    The Bengali Muslims are not indigenous to the land and they have no legitimate claim to it.The parasitic Muslims, with roots in Bangladesh, are an accumulated alien community inRakhaing state, who migrated from East Bengal of British India into the land at different times

    under different circumstances; the bulk of them being the British imported coolies and new-

    sprung arrivals in the post independent decades, with a few slave settlers from the days ofRakhaing monarchy.

    The Bengali refugees who crossed the common border to escape the genocide during the

    1971 Bangladesh independence war and the atrocities in aftermath tragic events of coup d'etat  

    alone numbered over half a million.According to the report of British Ambassador Terrence J. O'Brien, as recorded in the

    United Kingdom National Archives, Bangladesh Ambassador to Myanmar Khwaja Mohammed

    Kaiser admitted to him on December 23,1975 that "there were upward of 1/2 million Bangaleetrespassers in Arakan ( Rakhaing state) whom the Burmese had some right to eject......"

    As one looks back on the Rakhaing-Bengali gulf which has been irreparably widened

    following the communal strife in 2012, it is important to reflect upon the fundamental factors,political as well as economic and social.

    Much has been emphasized on race and religion and to a lesser degree economics as the

    basic cause of communal conflict. Rakhaing state is the second least developed region in the

    nation, with a poverty rate of 78% according to a 2014 World Bank report, where poverty andunder-development affect all communities. The economic competition being faced from the

    multiplex Bengali community is one factor in the ongoing community strife.

    The politically correct West is more responsive to the rights of alien Bengalis than sensitive tothe grievances of the natives who have been saddled with the political, social and economic crisis

    arisen from the influx of Bengali interlopers. The burgeoning Bengali population poses an

    existential threat to the Rakhaing community.
