Wirathu, infamous Buddhist
monk of Myanmar has been insulted Islam and Prophet Mohammed (PBUH) in his video;
the latest effort seems to escalate his anti-Muslim campaign in the country.
The video uploaded in the name of ‘Defense against Jihadism (2)’ on June 10th, Wirathu accused Muslim holy book of Quran encourage its follower to destroy holy statues and images of other faiths highlighting the acts of some Islamist militants in Philippines and Afghanistan.
“Quran itself
encourages terrorism and it is clearly show that Islam was established by
terror”, he said.
He also insulted
Prophet Mohammed (PBUH), said assailant or terrorist or violence creator.
“Quran states that
Mohammed himself set up Islam on violence.”
Although Myanmar has
enacted religious defamation law, it apparently seems to placate country’s
Buddhist majority.
In the past, Wirathu
has repeatedly used his speeches to attacks Muslims citizens and Islam.
In early March, the
country’s highest religious authority has banned his sermons for one year with
the aim of preventing from spreading hate speech.
Wirathu and his
followers have been trying to shape Islam as a threat to Buddhism in recent
years exploiting the acts of global Islamist militants.
Since 2012, hundreds
of Mosques, thousands of Muslims homes and Muslim owned businesses have been
destroyed and burnt down across the country in the anti-Muslim violence by Buddhist
nationalist while hundreds Muslims were killed, hundreds of women were raped
and thousands were displaced.
