Thr past couple of days in the news the subject of Myanmar's handling of the muslim Rohingya people in Rakhine has continued to build. Yesterday the number of Rohingya who were displaced was 87,000. Today the UN claims 123,000.

On August 25, a group of militant muslims attacked multiple outposts, claiming they wanted to protect the people. The government retaliated by burning their homes and firing on people from helicopters.
Even though Suu Kyi, who was recently elected in Myanmar, after being held in prison as an activist for years, has done what was necessary to handle the (terror) attacks, she has faced verbal attacks from political figures in the muslim world. Indonesia's government has been harsh, but more mysteriously, nobel peace prize winner Malala has attacked Suu Kyi for not doing more. Which is why I consider the 8/25 rohingya attacks are potentially terror related now.
Malala seems to be speaking for the Pakistani government - the same one that hid Osama Bin Laden and stymied US efforts for years. If Malala is now the voicebox for this pakistani regime, she needs to be stripped of her nobel prize.
