Lindsy, like I've stated, I'm no good when it comes to religions and politics, just not intellectual enough for both.
However, I read somewhere ago that the Muslims a.k.a Muslim Chams in Cambodia were persecuted under the Khmer Rouge regime. The Rohingya, Muslim people who settle in Northern Rakhine (Arakan) were massacred by Buddhist mobs in Burma/Myanmar. There were also news where Hindu fanatics rampantly attacked Muslim villages/settlements in India. Some of these news never make it to the mainstream news, sadly.
As usual, I have nothing intelligent to say but just wanna be known that I've grown up with Muslims all my life. I went to their house to eat and sleep, played in their compound and even stole rambutan, durian and manggis ( mangosteen ) from their orchard. Btw, stolen fruits always taste better/sweeter!
I've known so many Muslims from all walks of life. From the day I was born until now, I interact with them on a daily basis, even here on CS!
I don't know a lot of facts or the ongoing things/politics of the world but one thing for sure, my good Muslim friends would take me in during the time of need and I'd do the same for them, there's no doubt about it...
P.S I had the best chicken rendang in one of my good friend's house, Kak Bi of Pakistani descent. One of the most helpful person I have the fortune to encounter and loved my 2 kids to bits!
