• Myanmar and Bangladesh strike a shameful deal on Rohingya refugees
  29 November 2017, by siawi3

  Returning Rohingya people to the hands of their persecutors not only violates international law, but raises fundamental questions about how the world protects those fleeing the most heinous crimes and abuses. The international community has long tolerated the cover-ups and excuses from the government of Myanmar. This time it needs to be different. Bangladesh should step up and provide refuge to those who have been seeking it for 25 years. Myanmar’s neighbouring states and allies should help properly resettle the hundreds of thousands of undocumented Rohingya who have fled Myanmar, and Myanmar itself should be held to account for the atrocities it commits. There’s no point saying “never again” unless action is taken.

• UK: Kenan Malik on: Secularism, Islamism and the anti-immigration confusion
  6 February 2014, by siawi3

  Being born to European parents is not a passport to Enlightenment beliefs. So why should we imagine that having Bangladeshi or Moroccan ancestry makes one automatically believe in sharia? Secularism and fundamentalism are not ideas stitched into people’s
  DNA. They are, like all values, absorbed, accepted, rejected. A generation ago there were strong secular movements in Muslim communities and
  fundamentalism was a marginal force. Today secularism is much weaker, and Islamism much stronger. This shift has been propelled not by demographic changes but by political developments – the abandonment by the left of universalist values for particularist beliefs, the rise of identity politics, the
  imposition of multicultural policies, the collapse of broader social movements.

• India Sets Up Muslim Registry To Deport 20 Million Illegals
  30 November 2016, by siawi3

  Indian officials are registering all illegal Muslim Bangladeshi residents in the state of Assam in an apparent bid to reduce the Muslim population.

• Common humanity should be at the core of our politics
  20 February 2017, by siawi3

  This idea of difference has always been the fundamental principle of a racist agenda. The defeat of Nazism and its biological theory of difference largely discredited racial superiority. The racism behind it, however, found another more acceptable form of expression for this era. Instead of expression in racial terms, difference is now portrayed in cultural terms. Anti-Muslim/migrant propaganda today reminds me of propaganda against Jewish migrants in the 1930s.

• Bangladesh-Myanmar: Relocating Rohingaya refugees
  25 February 2017, by siawi3

  Almost half a million Rohingya refugees, including the 69,000 who arrived in the last few months, are living mainly in Cox’s Bazar in two registered camps and makeshift settlements after fleeing persecution and communal violence in Myanmar’s Rakhine State. Now Dhaka plans to move them to the uninhabited Thengar Char Island in Noakhali, about 250 km northwest of the border camps in Cox’s Bazar. The move has created a stir with several global rights bodies calling Bangladesh to drop the plan saying the island is not fit for human habitation.
