Nobel Peace laurite from Myanmar Aung San Suu Kyi, who tactfully
supports the racist genocides of Muslim minority community in Myanmar by the
regime and military, beats US President Trump to win Islamophobe of the year
2017 award.
The
annual Islamophobia Awards by the London-based Islamic Human Rights Commission
was attended by representatives of many NGOs and Muslim organizations as well
as prominent figures. The program started with recitation of a few verses from
the Muslim holy book of Qur’an.
In the
"United Kingdom" category, the Islamophobes of the year goes to Tommy
Robinson, former leader of the fascist English Defense League (EDL) who is
infamously known for his anti-Islam views.
Madam Suu Kyi's now the ruler of
Myanmar atrocities targeting Myanmar's Muslim minority are so egregious that
she shot past other nominated international Islamophobes, U.S. President Donald
Trump, French far-right party National Front leader Marie Le Pen, and Dutch
far-right Freedoms Party leader Geert Wilders.
Between 2,000 and 3,000 Muslims were
killed in Myanmar's Rakhine state over the last three months, according to the
European Rohingya Council and more than 617,000 Rohingya Muslims were forced to
take shelter in neighboring Bangladesh, Anadolu Agency reported.
The other candidates in this category
were TV presenter and columnist Katie Hopkins, former leader of the populist UK
Independence Party (UKIP) Nigel Farage, far-right For Britain Party founder
Anne Marie Waters and British Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson.
Fox News also received the ironic
award in the "media" category. The Islamic Human Rights Commission is
an "independent, not-for-profit, campaign, research and advocacy
organization," established in 1997.
Nobel Peace Prize is not given only to those who work for peace
and genuine freedom of people but for reason other than that. Former US
president Obama was given that award immediately after he assumed the White
House without any previous peace records before. At least after the Nobel Peace
award, Obama did not at all pursue any peace efforts but quickly accelerated
Bushdom era terror wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and also launched his own terror
war in Libya to kill Libyan President Col Qadhafi.
Similarly, Aung San Suu Kyi from Myanmar was awarded Nobel Peace
not for any her peace activities but for her sustained fight against the
ruthless military in Burma. Now she supports the military and its ruthlessness
targeting Muslims in Myanmar.
The award of Islamophobe of the year 2017 for Aung San Suu Kyi
is fitting endorsement of what she actually stands for.
