Ethnic Cleansing in Myanmar

The less-than-democratic government of mostly Buddhist Myanmar has decided to solve its Muslim problem with pressure to emigrate and ultimately, expulsions. See a New York Times article for details. Hat tip to Instapundit for the link.

If the world's Muslims cannot learn to live peaceably alongside others not of the faith, expect this to be a harbinger of things to come elsewhere. One could imagine Thailand, Nigeria, perhaps the Philippines, doing something similar in future, even as the so-called "caliphate" cleanses the Islamic State of non-Muslims today.
