Ensure No Visa Is Granted To ‘Butcher Of The Burmese Muslims’ Wirathu: SL Muslims Tell Rajapaksa

The Muslim Council of Sri Lanka (MCSL) in a letter to President Rajapaksa has requested him to ensure that visa is not granted for Burmese monk Ashin Wirathu to enter Sri Lanka to partake in the Sangha Sammelana (summit of Buddhist monks) this Sunday.

MCSL in their letter have raised concerns over the reports that Wirathu, who is also known as the ‘butcher of Burma’ has been invited to speak at the summit that has been organized by the Bodu Bala Sena (BBS).

They have pointed out that the presence of such a person who has caused such extreme violence on the Burmese Muslims would surely pose a great threat to the peaceful co-existence in Sri Lanka.

Moreover, they have pointed out that considering the racially motivated sermons that have been delivered by Wirathu, his participation in the summit as well as any speech he would make at the event would incite further violence against the Muslims in Sri Lanka, the same way BBS general secretary Galagoda Atte Gnanasara’s speech did in Aluthgama in June this year.

“Further the government of Sri Lanka faces the possibility of being accused of tacit support of the extremist group who are indulging in a hate campaign against the minorities in Sri Lanka if he is granted permission to visit the country,” the MCSL has noted further.

We publish below the letter in full;

September 25th 2014

His Excellency Mahinda Rajapaksa,

President,

Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka,

Presidential Secretariat,

Colombo 1.

Your Excellency,

As you are aware, Ven. Ashin Wirathu is the dreaded leader of the 969 Movement in Myanmar. He is also known as the Butcher of the Burmese Muslims. As the leader of the anti-Muslim movement in Myanmar, he has been responsible for hundreds of Muslims murdered  by extremist Buddhists.

Gnanasara and WirathuThere are strong rumours that he has been invited by the Bodu Bala Sena to attend their “Great Sangha Council” meeting on the 28th of September 2014.

Time magazine, with Ven. Ashin Wirathu in the cover page branded him as the face of Buddhist terror in Burma. Your Excellency, the presence of such a person who has caused so much violence on the Burmese Muslims would be a real threat to peace and peaceful co-existence in Sri Lanka. Many across the world have accused him of inciting violence against Myanmar’s Muslim minority with fiery sermons claiming that the growth of Islam is putting Buddhism and Burmese culture at risk. His presence and speech at the Sangha Council meeting may incite further violence against the Muslims, similar to the speech of Ven. Galagode Aththe Ganansara Thero’s made in Aluthgama which caused the rioting in Aluthgama and Beruwela in June 2014.  Further, the Government of Sri Lanka faces the possibility of being accused of tacit support to Buddhist extremist groups who are indulging in a hate campaign against minorities in Sri Lanka, if Ven. Ashin Virathu is granted permission to visit the country.

We believe that the nexus between the Bodu Bala Sena and 969 organizations for an anti-Muslim campaign was  initiated during the visit of Ven. Gnanasara Thero to Myanmar a few months back.

The Muslim Council of Sri Lanka, on behalf of the Muslim community in Sri Lanka kindly requests your Excellency to ensure that no visa is granted to Ven. Ashin Wirathu to visit Sri Lanka as he would pose a serious threat to peace in our beloved motherland.

Thanking you, Your Excellency for your immediate attention and necessary action.

Yours sincerely,

Hilmy Ahamed

Acting President

      @BBS Rep, you must be out of your mind to welcome this scoundrel. How the heck is he a Venerable person? You Buddhist extremist fellows have completely lost all the screws in your head. I agree Buddha was a great man, but how did he ever become a God? He gave up all to suffer like all, but you fellows made him God, he never ever said that he was God. He simply went away after seeing all the suffering. What Buddhism is practiced in Sri Lanka. Everything Buddha stood for has been reduced to a rubble in SL.

      Apita buduma saranai ! May Buddha and all other force be with us to come out of today – disastrous situation.

      If Prabakarana was a terrorist, why Ghanarasa even if he fires the nation again again – to stay without being brought before the courts for his all crimes that have been made sofar.

      What happpend to recent cases that ORAL PATIENT/so called dentist of the ruling bunch Rajitha raised – bringing the issue a public one ?

      Why all these issues seem disspearing with the same velocity as no other times ni the past ? Is this the democracy that we enjoy today ?

      over 250kg of Heroin loads were caught, but where has been the report in which the general public can read that all perpetrators are charged with highest punishments as a president of the naton could impose – in that way only he could strenghten th eview that he LOVEs the youth in this country – guranteeing the parents – that they can live without fears anymore.
      Why Malaysia imposes death penalty for anyone being caught with one 1 ounce of heroine or akin drugs, while our brutal leaders even OPENLY promotes heroin and alcohol businesses.

      Arundika fernando is scot free even if general public thougth tha this clans the ones who allowed Alcoholo containers to get in to the country without any shame or respect.

      Arundika fernando is the person who made it very clear that the journalist Eknaligoda is livingas an asylum seeker in Beligium OR France, but what happened to the issue since then, if he knew that why state failed to bring the guy back to those 2 children- family… who would help them the young teen boys to own a better psychology and face their future healthily ? Ekanaligoda s case is just tip of the iceberg. How many of the hidden cases stay being not addressed SINCE 2005 – what happened to our people today ?

    What a cheek. Just because Ven Wirathu is accused as a butcher by some Muslims and their apologists this fellow is telling the government not to let him into 70% Buddhists Sri Lanka. He should know that upasampada was brought to Sri Lanka from Myanmar by a monk like Wirathu.

      I am no Muslim,

      ‘He should know that upasampada was brought to Sri Lanka from Myanmar by a monk like Wirathu’.

      Are you serious that if someone wants to lead a life of an ascetic in meditation, adhering to the Buddhist Philosophy, one should receive Upasampada from an Order or an Individual self proclaimed as a Custodian? Tomorrow if I want to live the life of a Priest, I do not require any Upasampada or any mother’s son’s blessings or permission to do so. Further this Upasampada business was commenced by the Priesthood which is not evident during the times Buddha lived or immediately after. The curse of Buddhism has commenced after it has been Institutionalised and a bunch of Rogues taking to robes. What crap sold in the name of Buddhism today?

    First of all let me tell ‘Colombo telegraph that one letter from one Muslim organisation does not become wish of all Muslims in SL. so please avoid using SL Muslims whenever you received letter from one Muslim organisation.

    Other thing this is quite unnecessary for reasons
    1. You don’t write letters to head of state based on rumors.
    2.. Buddhists should have a freedom whom they should invite. we must Aluthgama
    3. this letter will put Muslims to a further checks and doubts in the hands of some Buddhists including so called Moderate Buddhists who are tend to believe what BBS says.
    4. If at all This is should have done by other civil societies too not only Muslims.

    The request has been made to a butcher who massacred thousands of Tamils and who is responsible for the violence against muslims. This is the butcher who murdered Lasantha and number of journalists and responsible for white van abductions and murder of Tamil, Muslim and Sinhalese people who ask for justice.

    Do you think he will listen to your request?

    Dear Hilmy Ahamed, Acting President

    “The Muslim Council of Sri Lanka has requested the President to ensure that no visa is granted to Burmese Buddhist monk Ashin Wirathu to visit Sri Lanka.”

    Excellent move.

    Let us see if the Rajapaksas are racists who are with the Criminals and killers.

    Pint out that the USA does not give Visa to him as well as BBS criminal Ganasara once they found pit about their criminality.

    Also expose and let all the World know.

    According to the twisted Sinhalese form of Buddhism that even Mahinda follows, Wirathu is a hero. He lives on racism, hate speeches and bigotry. He organizes the killing of other races that makes him a hero to his Buddhist Burmese majority. In Sri Lanka, the same thing has happened and one portion of it is the UN investigation where a total Sinhalese Buddhist army has annihilated a minority population of Tamils amounting to around 40,000 in just few days. The second part is the Aluthgama incident. To any Sinhalese, these events are all considered heroism and they are proud of it.
    On the other hand, followers of true Buddhism such as the Dalai Lama are considered enemies by these same cowardly criminal bastards.

    Wirathu and his 969 terror group are already on the terror watch list. Probably he may never be able to board a flight as a leader of a terror outfit. What Buddhism does he teach, but spread hatred, destruction and murder of fellow human beings? Both Gnanasara and Wirathu have both earned the wrath of Muslims all over the world, and will remain condemned for the rest of their lives. Who would wish to live and die as hated and condemned as they are? Never to be missed even after they are both long gone.

      Marwan, Koran says, non-Muslims are worse than animals. No wonder, Muslim leaders marched in toto and condemn writers like Rushdi and cartoonist like Westergaard for expressing their views. So, I am least surprised guys like you are against Gnanasara and Wirathu who work hard against Muslim expansion.

        You basically have no idea on the difference of ‘expressing their views’ and ‘stomping all over on anothers religious beliefs’, since you would care less if someone violates your most inner beliefs with canards and wicked drawings. You probably will enjoy the jokes and even poke more fun at your own religious leaders. So much for your freedom of expression. We Muslims are of a different breed. We will not tolerate violation of our religious rights and having fun by making jokes of our beliefs, and simply leave it to the rights of free speech. Instead we will consider it as a confrontation and challenge, and will meet this challenge appropriately. This is the big difference between us Muslims and believers of all the other religions put together. We believe their is a line which must NOT be crossed, as if it is crossed, then someone needs to pay the price. Just simple as that, and we stand well within our rights to do just that.

IF EVERY monk has 2 kids minimum… Sinhalese do NOT have to worry about Population decline for the next 50 years..BUT how potent are they is questionable….

      Marwan !!!! SL claims it Eradicated Terrorism.. They may have eradicated Tamil terrorism (NOT all Tamils are terrorists and replace it with Buddhist STATE Terrorism and sowing the seed of Islamic terrorism.. They are sowing the seeds not knowing where the harvest would take em… IF Wirathu is a scholar whom USA and other nations has blacklisted how come SL let him in I wonder.. lets see the results of his coming here in teh future… Also his speeches should be monitored and IF he goes by his guidelines of killing he should be deported immediately after the 1st speech…. IF Pakistani Christian REFUGEES who are supposed to be protected by the UN CHARTER are deported for fear of them being terrorists.. WIRATHU is much worse..shouldn’t have been issued a visa in the 1st place… Lets wait and watch..

      I wonder what would MR tell the chief of the OIC(Organization Of Islamic Countries) a body of 58 countries to whom he said he would LOOK AFTER THE MUSLIMS like his brothers…

      I bet GoORA was Instrumental in issuing this Wirathu a visa which is beyond his duties as secretary of the MOD…

    See how they kill animals. Why they discriminate life of an animal.

    It is a life.

    That Venerable monk, never asked any one to be killed. As a human being and a burmese Buddhist he is asking what is his to be left alone without polluting by the islamic foreign culture.

      Every Muslim (at some stage in his life) will learn to slaughter even a chicken to eat the halal way. So he can survive anywhere in the world by doing his own thing. But what are you doing, buying meat from the Muslim butcher, to fill your plate at the dhana house, the dhansala food on Wesak Poya day, the temple monk’s food, the army, navy and air-force personnel meals (there are tens of thousands of them), the hotels serving foreigners, all of the airline food, Temple Trees staff, all the Sinhalese bath kade’s all consuming meat as their daily consumption, and still never heard of a shortage of cattle for slaughter. Must be some miracle. If butcher does not kill animal, from where the beef and chicken come? If fisherman not catching fish (also killing animal), then from where fish come to your plate. If hen does stops laying egg, because you eat it daily, from where to get egg to the plate? Why you eat egg anyway? Why not we all live on Soya meat only, ha? All hoodwinking the masses through hyper-hypocrisy to fool the masses to the max. One monk even gave his life in vain for nothing, since nothing ever happened, even in his memory. People keep fooling people, and happeniing all the time

      “Every Muslim is a butcher. See how they kill animals. Why they discriminate life of an animal It is a life..” NOT TRUE… coz NOT all Muslims are butchers by profession MOST buy it from butchers… tell me Buddhists including u too do not buy from butchers… Also Jimmyyo tell me that u don’t eat cakes, which are made using eggs, which also could be a life..Tell me u don’t eat fish and dry fish coz they don’t have LIFE…? How about vegetables? isn’t it a fact that science has proven trees have life? GO STARVE YOURSELF TO DEATH… id be the 1st to light the match on ur PYRE… and would be Thanking God for taking u away from this earth. so stupidos like u don’t come on Colombo Telegraph..

    This man in robes is definitely the worst butcher this century has produced. He is no buddhist. If our mahanayake’s accept him as a Buddhist leader, I will become a non-Buddhist. Definitely not a Muslim, but probably be an atheist. There is no room for violence in Buddhism and what Wirathu has done in Myanmar is the same thing the Gigalo Gnanasara has done to the Muslims. Murdered them in cold blood.

    I apologise to the Muslims for the indifference shown them by the government.

    The need for Myanmar like mechanism to deal with Islam.
    Islam however, whoever says what, Is a barbaric religion. The religion asks to kill those who do not believe in Islam. The justification is, “it is better to kill them than let them live with no faith on Allah” so killing infidels is this justified as “for the betterment of infidels”
    E.g : Quran
    2:191 “..And slay them wherever ye find them, and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out, for persecution is worse than slaughter. And fight not with them at the Inviolable Place of Worship until they first attack you there, but if they attack you (there) then slay them. Such is the reward of disbelievers”

    2:193 “And fight them until persecution is no more, and religion is for Allah.”

    2:216 “Warfare is ordained for you, though it is hateful unto you; but it may happen that ye hate a thing which is good for you, and it may happen that ye love a thing which is bad for you. Allah knoweth, ye know no.t.

    2:244 “Fight in the way of Allah, and know that Allah is Hearer, Knower.”

    5:33 “The only reward of those who make war upon Allah and His messenger and strive after corruption in the land will be that they will be killed or crucified, or have their hands and feet on alternate sides cut off, or will be expelled out of the land. Such will be their degradation in the world, and in the Hereafter theirs will be an awful doom”.

    In Islam, everything is governed under Quran. Children are taught only Islam, but not even a word about other religions. They are taught and trained to act as killing machines and spread Islam. This is the reason why Islam is very aggressive and Islam itself is terrorism.
    When the majority of a country is Islam, they impose Sharia. They justify it as the “divine law of God”. Non-Muslims also need to adhere to sharia, or be punished under sharia. Non-Muslims are not given jobs/education or other opportunities. There will be taxes on non-Muslims, just because they are non-Muslims. E.g. Indonesia, Malaysia
    See “Jizya” :
    Why non-Muslims should pay Jizya ?

    Muslims migrate to Non-Muslim country and slowly (yet steadily) grow their numbers. They act very innocent and get all the benefits under the majority. Most of the other civilised religions do not depress other religions. And Islam grows with no threat from the existing principle religion ( Buddhism or Christianity) once they grow the numbers, then ask for sharia and special laws. And when they can, they take the power of the country and make it a Muslim country. No democracy , no mercy for minorities there onwards. Non-Muslims are depressed and killed.
    See why terrorism is allowed in Islam:
    ( do a google search)

    Further Islam allows its followers to cheat infidels in order to covet them to Islam.
    (http://www.investigativeproject.org/3641/the-evils-of-the-muslim-brotherhood-evidence)
    Look at this own publication by an Islamic organisation. It says, Islamic woman is independent of her husband and has her own rights.
    “Muslim women have all the rights of their male counterparts. Islam granted full rights to women fourteen hundred years ago. Muslim women may own and dispose property; they may work, exercise voting powers and exercise numerous other rights freely without constraints. More so, Muslim women cannot be forced to marry against their will.”

    What a joke. In Islamic countries a woman is not allowed to walk without her husband / son or father. And he is prisoned under the hijab.
    Lying, Stealing, and Cheating to Victory: In a recent article titled “The Islamist Group’s Hidden Intentions,” appearing in Watani, the author Youssef Sidhom exposes a document “which carries the logos of both the Muslim Brotherhood and its political arm, the Freedom and Justice Party.” Written by the Deputy to the Supreme Guide, Khairat el-Shater and addressed “to all the Brotherhood branches in the governorates,” the memo calls on Muslims to cheat, block votes, and “resort to any method that can change the vote” to ensure that Morsi wins, which, of course, he just did—amidst many accusations of electoral fraud. El-Shater concluded his memo by saying, “You must understand, brothers, that our interest lies wherever there is the Sharia of Allah, and this can only be by preserving the [MB] group and preserving Islam.”

    In short, the Muslim Brotherhood has not changed; only Western opinion of it has. As it was since its founding in 1928, the group is committed to empowering and spreading Sharia law—a law that preaches hate for non-Muslim “infidels,” especially Islam’s historic nemesis, Christianity, and allows anything, from lying to cheating, to make Islam supreme. Now that the Brotherhood has finally achieved power, the world can prepare to see such aspects on a grand scale.
    It is rather apparent the reference to “satin” in Christianity and reference to “mara” in Buddhism must be referred to the same, that is Islam and its God Allah. According to Christianity and to Buddhism, there is a dooms day; where e the world destroys, when people are sinners. It must be referred to a situation where Islam conquers the world. Or rather “satin” or “mara” conquer the world. Then the glory of the world is gone. And world get destroyed itself.

    So via democracy, kindness the world simply cannot deal with Islam. Islam is such that It is like a cancer. By loving the cancer or by been nice to cancer, you can’t get rid from that. You need to treat the cancer in such a way to get rid from that.

    The mechanism in Myanmar, is thus rather justified. Since they understood that Islam is growing and soon, they will be slaves under Islam hypocrisy and depression. A problem which cannot be addressed democratically or with a human feelings. Look, what happened in all Buddhist countries, in all peaceful countries. Islam enters and they simply destroy it. E.g. Sri Lankan, India, Maldives, Bangladesh etc etc.

    The American Approach is better, but is in macro level. Mass scale Muslim depression. While America treats the would cancer like that, small nations like Myanmar or Sri Lanka need to act in a grass root level to get rid form the world cancer.
    Sri Lankans, if they need to be safe, have to think about Something like in Myanmar, before it is too late. I think Sri Lankan Buddhist are ( or they used to be ) too good and too innocent. Bodu Bala Sena is doing a marvellous duty by making it clear to Sinhalese. Let’s hope the Glory of the world will remain longer, with No Islam Hypocrisy.

      A canard copied straight from an Islamophobic website. There is no background context which explain or try to justify any of those killing of another human being. You make it sound so awful. All these questions could be verified and checked by following Nouman Ali Khan – a Scholar in Quranic text, or even Zakir Naik – an expert on comparative religion. But there are so many others too who could be searched out from ‘Islamic debates’ on Youtube. We would usually leave it to the experts to read the Quranic text, translate it and then do the explaining.

      In spite of your negativity, there are more and more coming into the Islamic fold in spite of all the bad publicity doing the rounds. Listen to Joshua Evans on why he came to Islam after being a Christian Minister, he studied all of the other major religions, but he found his answer in Islam. Why did a Christian father, now known as Yusuf Estes come into Islam. Why did Hussain Yee a Buddhist monk come into Islam. There are thousands out there like George Galloway, Yvonne Riddles, (I refer to converts only) all waiting to tell their stories. It takes upto one year of intense training upon converting, to fully understand and become good practicing Muslims, after which they are all on their own. Surely, there must be a reason for all this rush to come into Islam before it is too late. It can’t be so if Islam was such a harsh religion as you try to make out. In any case, why has Islam succeeded in all those countries you mentioned. I’ll tell you why. It is because with the dawn of Islam and when the truth triumphed, all falsehood and darkness disappeared for good, and it has stayed that way ever since. Prosperity, affluence and achievement are the hallmarks of success in all of those Islamic countries. They don’t miss anything with the absence of Buddhism in their midst. I only wish Sri Lanka would one day go the same.

      IF Islam is so barbaric why would the Westerners revert to Islam in droves in UK USA.. ? They like to read and know the facts than be like YOU who would ape the west. Why is Islam the Fastest growing religion in the West? Moreover why did Michael H.Hart an American Author name Prophet Muhammed as NO 1 on his book of “100 Most Influential Person in History”?

      Check out http://www.Islamicity.com but with a clear mind and while on it read the stories of people who reverted to Islam. You may also check out http://www.themodernreligion.com NOT to revert u to Islam but so u can think outside the Box than be a Frog in a well…
