Earthytaurus... . You are absolutely right! A single sentence posted at above by you reveals the realities vividly! Just look at the scared faces of the Rohingya siblings (photo # 5) fleeing the state sponsored violence holding their little brothers as they cross the Naf River for safe sanctuary in an unknown land! Please do not be surprised if these siblings have been made orphans by the Burmese military Junta like many other ethnic minorities who had been living in Arakan State of Burma since 8th century! Thanks for your post. Take care and stay well.
