Somehow I doubt that Buddha would be very impressed.

He likely wouldn't have been impressed with the Buddhist establishment in Sri Lanka blocking peace efforts with the Tamil Tigers again and again either. Or the Buddhists in southern Thailand provoking trouble with the Islamic residents.
Not that I have anything against Buddhism; but its right wing mixes with politics and ethnic cleansing and war as badly as other religions' do.

I think the only real difference is that Muslim extremists have gone beyond local borders and have spilled onto the world stage. That, itself, IS unique.

That one is a much better source, and far less biased. It also doesn't say it had anything to do with Islam, but rather the chaos of war.
Meanwhile spending even more aggression on each other, Sunni v Shia across the Middle East.
As Northern Ireland showed, we can be good haters, we tribal humans.
Yeah...the main parallels to that in recent history have been political more than religious.
But Islam almost has a boot in the politics camp. Perhaps that's important?

I do agree but sadly there is no division in Islam between religion and politics.
The difference also is there is absolutely nothing in Buddha's sayings Sutta discourses that in any way shape or form justify what's happening in Myanmar and what happened in Sri Lanka. Everything in there opposes such things in completely unambiguous terms. So they have no excuse whatsoever. The people who are doing this are much Buddhists as Creationists are scientists.
The decline of Buddhism to this last pitiful state in South and South East Asia saddens me no end. But I will let Gandalf speak,
Sniff sniff.

I stand corrected.

Kinda what I mean. It may show some traits more commonly associated with politics due to that?
Just a hypothesis.

As difficult to reconcile is what the Qu'ran says about infidels, Jews, Christians, women, slaves . . .

Do you have any reason to believe this is true? Or is this just fake news?

What does one man eating a heart (whatever the reasoning) have to do with Islam?

Beats me. *snicker*
It does give new meaning to the expression, "Have a heart" though.

Have you read any of the posts here? If you did you must have missed the additional links to Islam and cannibalism and the Syrian Muslim talking about eating the heart of those he defeated.
What evidence have you that this is not true?

Are you asking me to prove a negative? That's a bit unreasonable.

How about discuss why you believe any of this is false

For starters, the website is known for spreading "fake news" (false stories). So, I'm not going to be gullible enough to just take their word for it unless it is corroborated by a more reputable source.

And I assume you choose to turn a blind eye to the plethora of information regarding this found in the Quran and hundreds of other links online?
