Muslims kill Christians, Buddhists kill Muslims

“Dozens of schools have been burned in attacks by Islamists since 2010.

“A reporter from the Associated Press found chaotic scenes at the hospital in nearby Potiskum, where traumatised parents struggled to identify their children among the charred bodies and gunshot victims.

“Survivors said suspected militants arrived with containers full of fuel and set fire to the school.

“Some pupils were burned alive, others were shot as they tried to flee.”

While in another part of the world:

“MEIKHTILA, Myanmar (AP) — Their bones are scattered in blackened patches of earth across a hillside overlooking the wrecked Islamic boarding school they once called home.

“Smashed fragments of skulls rest atop the dirt. A shattered jaw cradles half a set of teeth. And among the remains lie the sharpened bamboo staves attackers used to beat dozens of people to the ground before drowning their still-twitching bodies in gasoline and burning them alive.

“The mobs that March morning were Buddhists enraged by the killing of a monk. The victims were Muslims who had nothing to do with it — students and teachers from a prestigious Islamic school in central Myanmar who were so close to being saved.”

(One has nothing to do with the other, of course, Nigerian Muslims murdering Nigerian Christians, Burmese Buddhists murdering Burmese Muslims. Sometimes, though, there is a bang and not a whimper.)
