Ban on Doctors’ Group Imperils Muslim Minority in Myanmar
« on: March 15, 2014, 09:43:25 AM »
We are Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF). We help people worldwide where the need is greatest, delivering emergency medical aid to people affected by conflict, epidemics, disasters or exclusion from health care.


The Government of Myanmar has banned operations of Doctors Without Borders. Nearly 750,000 poeple have been deprived of most medical services.


The government ordered a halt to the work of Doctors Without Borders two weeks ago after some officials accused the group of favoring the Muslims, members of the Rohingya ethnic group, over a rival group, Rakhine Buddhists. ... http://www.nytimes.com/2014/03/14/world/asia/myanmar-bans-doctors-without-borders.html?ref=buddhism&_r=0

Basic medical services should be provided to everyone, irregardless color, creed or religion.  These Doctors provide medical help on this principle based on humanitarian issue.

I think the Myanmar government are Buddhist. But what their decision on depriving the muslims minority the service of the Doctors Without Border smack of non-Buddhist spirit. The behave from a very political and religious intolerance view. It is a shame to all Myanmar citizen and people of other religion will regard this as "Buddhism". Sigh.

Buddhism is a most tolerant religion. The word tolerant is not even used, for Buddhism is a religion of compassion and loving kindness. So the Myanmar Government is not compassionate to the Muslims because of religion or race. It is not Buddhism. Please be clear about this when others ask us.

The negative situation in Myanmmar between the Muslims and Buddhists is not caused by religion. It is caused
by politics. Politics involves greed. It involves power . The Maras are so strong that the minds of people are deluded and forget the real teachings. It is indeed sad, because so many innocent lives are affected. What Karma to be born so close to the Buddhas and yet remain blind and deluded !

This spurious entity known as ”Doctors Without Borders” (in French ”Médecins Sans Frontières”, MSF) is well known as an arm of Western spying and war propaganda, under the cover of providing medical services, but always in places of geopolitical interest to Western neo-colonialist countries, and using the services of naive volunteers who unwittingly risk their lives to serve such ignoble interests.

The organization is mainly financed by Western governmental and corporate donations, by financial criminals based in Wall Street and the City of London, the very same war mongers who benefit from the wars they continuously instigate, always against countries non-compliant with Western neo-colonialist interests, such as Syria, Myanmar, Iraq, Sudan, and so forth.

”According to their own annual report of 2010, among the list of donors are the usual suspects like Goldman Sachs, Wells Fargo, Citigroup, Google, Microsoft, Bloomberg and a number of other members of the military-industrial-financial complex. Among the Board of the MSF (Doctors Without Borders / Médecins Sans Frontières), there are also banksters such as Elizabeth Beshel Robinson of Goldman Sachs.” http://www.syrianews.cc/doctors-borders-war-propaganda-syria/

Rather than helping innocent people in need, the ”Doctors Without Borders” work as the field hospital and medical unit at the service of terrorist gangs, themselves also supported and financed by Western countries, and also by bloody absolutistic theocracies such as Saudi Arabia -- gangs such as the al-Qaeda affiliated Wahhabite extremist al-Nusra Front and ISIL, now devastating Syria and Iraq, decapitating Christians and moderate Muslims, and killing thousands of children with their chemical weapons. And just as in Myanmar, their ”help” is always one-sided, only to the terrorists, never to their innocent victims.

And it is not different in Myanmar, a mainly Buddhist country, where extremist, al-Qaeda affiliated, Saudi Arabia financed Rohingya Muslims are used as a weapon against a non-compliant government, with the aim of bringing unstability and chaos to the country, just as they do in Syria, Iraq etc., with the help of Western presstitute media such as the New York Times, and of course of this Western war propaganda arm known as the ”Doctors Without Borders”.

Therefore, Myanmar did very well kicking out from their borders this sinister organization, as would Sri Lanka, Cambodja, and actually any other Buddhist or non-Buddhist country. They have other means to provide medical help to their people without allowing for the terrorist-supporting activity of such organizations.

By the way, since the ”Doctors Without Borders” are so much ”concerned” with people without medical assistance, why don't they go to the US, where around not only 750 thousand but 50 million uninsured, destituted people are unable to pay for health care. US Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said that, “One of the most enduring myths in American health care is that people without health insurance can get care with little or no problem. Nothing could be farther from the truth.” The reality is that families go without care or face health care bills that they know they can’t pay. http://familiesusa.org/blog/families-without-insurance-unable-to-afford-medical-bills

Bottom line, ”Doctors Without Borders”, just like ”Dalai Lama”, ”Human Rights Watch”, ”Amnesty Internationaln, ”freedom and democracy”, and many other Western-fed myths, is just one more worthless lie at the service of Western neo-colonialist, anti-humanity war propaganda.

A picture of the ”people in need”, actually ISIL and al-Qaeda's al-Nusra Front terrorists, which alone receive the dedicated health assistance from the ”Doctors Without Borders” in Syria.

These are the Western and Saudi-Arabia sponsored ”moderate” terrorists and cannibals daily decapitating, and even eating the hearts of, Christians and moderate Muslims, as proudly documented by many self-posted YouTube videos, and whose good health to continue their ”fight for democracy” is ensured by the ”Doctors Without Borders”.

The general schema in not different with Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar, which makes it more understandable why they were kicked out from the country.

It is hard to imagine that various interest groups , with ulterior political motive, have hijacked the whole entity called " Doctors Without Borders".

"Without borders" represents all that's beautiful in inter-faith and inter-racial relationships. It represents the heart of Buddhist compassion and "non-duality" and "interdependent origination". The cost of withdrawing medical services where they are most needed is high. As a result of withdrawing it, nearly 750000 people in  Myanmar are without most medical services.

The whole entity called ”Doctors Without Borders” has not been hijacked by anyone. It was created from scratch by Western state and corporate terrorism as a tool at the service of its sinister purposes.

This is difficult for you and many others even to imagine, because of a naive predisposition which takes for granted whatever the mainstream corporate media says, without any investigation and analysis.

The Buddha warned his disciples never to accept anything, even his own teachings, without investigation and analysis; then it is a disgrace that so-called Buddhists so blindly buy into presstitute media stories.

Terrorism, drug trafficking, human trafficking, wars etc. are all without borders as well. The fact that a mere slogan, such as ”Without Borders”, deceives you so easily shows how much you disregard the Buddha's advice to think before naively buying into anything.

Then for you international terrorism, drug trafficking, human trafficking, etc., which are all ”without borders”, are the heart of Buddhist compassion, non-duality, and interdependent origination.

The ”Doctors Without Borders” are known for providing medical services to terrorists, not to those actually in need.

But maybe you think that Western- and Saudi Arabian-sponsored fundamentalist Wahhabite Muslim terrorists are the ones most in need of medical services, and therefore you are concerned with the costs they face. In such case you might consider making them a financial contribution.

Myanmar is well capable of providing these services without the help of international ”without borders” terrorism-supporting organizations. Any country can do better by itself than without this kind of help.
