1. Burmese Army has very bad reputation of killing innocent people and burning down the whole villages. It had been done in past and has been done in current conflicts. They did these actions in the past, they are doing it now and they will do it again in future. It is for sure, it would (hopefully) stop until it has been transformed into a professional Army.
So, in Rakhine conflicts, it is very clear that they can be happy trigger to those innocent people.
I heard that even in the middle and low rank military officers, they have so much hate on muslim people. They has been trained since they are in the Defence Service Academy. Whenever you talk with them friendly, they will show their true mind that it is their duty to eliminate muslim from Myanmar. It was since before the current conflicts has happen. It was started since 2012, Thein Sein Government had in power.
2. No one can denied that there is a Rohingya Muslim Militant Terrorist group is operating in the Rakhine Area. They has triggered the current conflicts by attacking innocent people and Burmese army is doing counter attack as they please.
This is the true arm conflicts situation.
The social construct in Rakhine state play in background role. The 2 bigs (Buddhist and Muslim) communities are living in fear to each others. No one trust anybody.
At the same time, political opportunists were taking the chance to stair up with more violence in order to show that NLD is unfit to govern the country.
Everyone deserve HUMAN RIGHT. But blame games do not work.
Both communities are victim of local political games and global Islamophobic politics.
If you want to solve the problems of Rakhine state, or if you really sympathise those victims, then understand the real situation and bring systematic approaches rather than throwing fuel into the fire.
