JI to observe solidarity day with Myanmar Muslims on August 3
The party chief called on the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and the world community to adopt immediate measures to stop the massacre of the Myanmar Muslims. He also urged the government to requisition a special UN General Assembly meeting on the issue and demand an end to the killing of the Burmese Muslims.
Hassan, in a statement issued by the party, said that the UN and other “champions of world peace” had gone blind to the genocide of the Burmese Muslims and the repeated incidents of them being burnt alive. He said that about four million Muslims were facing the worst type of persecution and terrorism, and they were ready to migrate to save their lives but were being taken in custody and forced to apostate.
He expressed the view that if immediate attention was not given to the matter, it would end up in a major human tragedy.
He said that the atrocities being perpetrated on the Burmese Muslim were unparalleled, but “unfortunately, the world media, the UNO and Human Rights bodies were completely silent”. The Muslim rulers were also criminally silent, he said.
Hassan further urged the people to join the JI rallies on Friday in large numbers to arouse the world conscience on the issue and also awaken the Muslim rulers.

@Sayyed Mehdi: They have not and will never protest because it does not fit in with their religion to protect followers of other religions. That is the Islamic way.
And what about killings in Balochistan, Karachi, and FATA? You, hypocrites!
These people have a LOT of time on their hands, how about solidarity for your own people? Hypocrisy beyond any limits.
@ ALL Please give credit where it is due! Just for your own prejudice don't harm the cause
Ms. Dogar. These Hypocrites cry for nobody and have sympathy for none. They just put up these sanctimonous shows to remind us our own flaws and faultlines as a people.
Good Luck JI as if OIC is really listening to you and does not have any other pressing issues to deal with. I wonder what you guys do for honest living and how can you manage to show up for these irritating rallies all the time?
Pak should provide credible evidence . Burma gov is not involved in it . Non-state actors are involved in it .
This JI mentality needs to understand that if we are crippled from top to bottom , how can we help anyone else. The concept of UMMAH exists in Pakistan only, rest of the countries don't give a damn especially BROTHERLY countries like Saudia, UAE, Qatar etc. They consider us the Pakistanis second class Muslims, that's a cold hard fact.
Here this called actual action ! Indians are forefront of it ! Not Pakistan or Bangladesh!

Where is Roflcopter, Kaalchakra and zaid hamid? Not a peep from them. And I have not said anything. Most of the comments are from Pakistan. Good to see a lot of good people there.
look at these champions of the Ummah....who cares if TTP kills minorities in Pakistan...lets burn some flags over Burma for now...thanks mr Zia-ul_Haq.
JI always try to divert attention of public from problems being faced by them. Why?
There's no genocide in Myanmar. This is a propaganda on Social Media. When will we start researching on stuff instead of sharing it BLINDLY like a herd??? Show solidarity to Muslims in Syria (latest) and Pakistan first. Thousands killed in Pakistan, Hundreds in Syria and you are crying for less than a hundred of Burmese in July 2012? due to FAKE PHOTOS.
test
How about a day of solidarity with "ourselves" and our woes?
What about the bigger genocide in Syria. Lemme guess...of course, Syrian genocide is a zionist conspiracy.
@Sayyed Mehdi: didn't you read " Muslims" !! we the Ahemdis and Shia....are not Muslims :P
Yeah baby, let's burn some more flags, our national past time.
Leave it to the Jamaat-e-Islami - expressing some of the most pointlessly absurd views which are purely based on ideological rhetoric rather than rational practicality.
Focus more on exaggerating Rohingya suffering via facebook propaganda, and raise hue and cry over Dr Aafia, and Raymond Davis and whatnot, but NEVER EVER mentioning or discussing 40,000 dead Pakistanis because of their Taliban "brothers", anti-Shia killings across Pakistan, and the appeasement of DPC mullahs.
No, its all about cheap points scoring by exploiting the ridiculous mindset of our stubbornly naive masses.
so not even close indonesia and bangladesh are worried but pakistan is taking up the thekedari of the entire muslim population of the world. for what? even if they go aggressive they will be burning and destroying public property of pakistan. even if they stop traffic and markets then it will be a attack on paistani already fragile economy. to destroy pakistan one needs to create trouble for muslims elsewhere. other muslim nation have nation first then religion but pakistan have totally different policy. they dont seems to gain anything from this except troble for themselves
There go the thekedaars of Islam again. How come there was no protest when 17 Pakistani soldiers were beheaded by the TTP recently? The hypocrisy of these people is repulsive and it is so obvious that they are paid servants of the establishment.
Do these people ever protest about the killings in their own country? Always using religion to further their political agendas.
Get those motor launches ready boys...
we cant take this load shedding anymore
Lord Jim here we come
That's a good thing. But just asking: did they ever hold a protest in solidarity with terror against Ahmedis/Shias or other minorities in Pakistan?
