text: Unlike many, I've actually been to Burma (now called Myanmar) a number of times.
  
  The level of hatred by the Buddhist majority (88% of the population) against the Rohingya is unparalleled in the universe. There is no chance the Buddhists will ever allow the Rohingya to live in peace, and the Rohingya can't stand up for themselves as they represent only 4.3% of the population.
  
  Once the Rohingya are gone (either killed, or fled) the Buddhists will start in on other groups like the Christians (6.2% of the population) and the Hindus (0.5% of the population) and other minorities.
  
  The Burmese Buddhists just don't want anyone else there. Full stop.
  
  Burmese State Counselor Aung Sung Suu Kyii has little power there and she has even less power over the Burmese military. If she speaks out too loudly, she'll simply disappear and no one will ever see her again. The West should stop pissing on her, as she can still facilitate some matters for aid organizations working in the country.
