What do the Rohingya and Palestinians have in common?
"Both groups are subjected to systemic efforts to erase their cultural and national identities, while also enduring the devastating effects of environmental degradation caused by cruel human actions." They have both faced the horrors of genocide and ethnic cleansing. It has been seven years since the Rohingya genocide was committed by the Myanmar military. Thousands were killed, entire villages burned, and 700,000 Rohingya were forced to flee, seeking refuge in neighbouring Bangladesh. In Gaza, it has tragically been almost a year since a horrific genocide was unleashed on its population. Tens of thousands have been killed, entire neighbourhoods reduced to rubble, and the infrastructure and economy have been decimated.
"We cannot let human displacement, which disproportionately targets Muslims, become the norm of the world." - Imam Omar Suleiman
