Rohingyas In Indonesia

The Burmese who want the Rohingya out claim they are Muslims from what is now Bangladesh who infiltrated across porous borders into northern Burma, where they carried out massacres of the local Burmese. Defenders of the Rohingya claim they are Burmese, not Bengali. Have you ever seen pictures of the Rohingya? Do you know what people in Bangladesh look like, and what the indigenous people of Burma look like? 

Look at the photograph here of the Rohingya who’ve landed in Indonesia (instead, of, say, Sydney or Lampedusa) and see what you think.
