Buddhists have had enough of Muslim thuggery ....

and now they are giving back in spades.  And, remember that violence is abhorrent to the Buddhists,  they do their best not to step even on an ant if they can help it.  What's happening in  Burma only goes to show  how the Muslims have driven these peace-loving people to this drastic behaviour.  One can tolerate only so much .... and then the dam bursts and all thoughts of  brotherly love and harmony goes up in smoke ... literally.  Keep a look out  for  how most of our MSM will refrain from telling us how the latest violence erupted.   I went through dozens of news items before finding the real cause.

From Reuters:
Muslims and Buddhists clashed  in Myanmar's northern city of Lashio on Tuesday, witnesses said, as a wave of sectarian violence reached a mountainous region near China's border.

Phone lines were down in the city of about 131,000 people and the extent of the violence was unclear. Witnesses reported several large fires and said a mosque and Buddhist monastery appear to have been torched.

The violence followed unrest between Muslims and Buddhists in other parts of Myanmar over the past year, including fighting in the central city of Meikhtila in March that killed at least 44 people, mostly Muslims, and razed several Muslim neighborhoods. About 12,000 people lost their homes.

Lashio, capital of Shan State, had been spared from the religious unrest. Known for its strong Chinese influence, it is about 190 km (120 miles) from Muse, a city on China's border.

Hajji Aung Lwin, a Muslim man from a village on the outskirts of Lashio, said the fighting appeared to have begun after a violent quarrel between a Muslim man and a Buddhist woman who worked at a petrol station.

Several residents said the man doused the woman in fuel and set her on fire. After police detained the man, local Buddhists surrounded the police station and demanded he be handed over, said Aung.

When they refused, the crowd rampaged, setting nearby motorbikes on fire and attacking Myoma Mosque, near Lashio market, residents said. One witness reported seeing flames in the city and a large building on fire........
