What the petition asks
Over 500 Rohingya villages have been incinerated. Tens of thousands have been murdered. The persecution and killings of the Burmese Rohingya at the hands of the Burmese government and its collaborators is in full swing whilst we with the power stand up for the basic rights of these forsaken people.
Myanmar’s treatment of its Muslim Rohingya minority appears to be a “textbook example” of ethnic cleansing, the top United Nations human rights official has said.
In an address to the UN human rights council in Geneva, Zeid Ra’ad Al Hussein denounced the “brutal security operation” against the Rohingya in Rakhine state, which he said was “clearly disproportionate” to insurgent attacks carried out last month.
