CLASSIFICATION:Categories to distinguish people into us and themby ethnicity, race, religion, or nationality.Muslims 2001 Anti-Muslim Violencein Burma cities including Sittwe and Kyaukpyu Rakhine State. Reports of orchestrated anti-Muslim violencein variou
State. In several of the cases it is unlikely that the violence would have spread without being fanned and encouraged by someone in the monaste It iswidely alleged that most larger monasteries in Burma have at least some monks who are in reality Military Intelligence operatives
encourage the other monks toward communal violence. In each case the violence spread, and Muslim mosques, homes and shops were destroyedMuslim townspeople were hit with rocks, sla
machetes, beaten with sticks and burned families in their houses. Throughout most of the violence the Army and police, usually so quick to crush any public activity, either stood by or held back the Mu
Buddhists.1
2. SYMBOLIZATION:Labeling the classified group. The symbolization of a certain ethnicity, race or religion easily and visibly differentiates that grobetween two groups widens.Government authorities still commonly refer to Rohingya as Bengali, so-called Rohingya, or the deroga
3. DISCRIMINATION:A dominant group uses law, custom, and political power to deny the rights of other groups. 1982 Stripped and Denied of citizenship3 Nasaka (Border Security Force) was formed in 1992. The institution wasspecially designed to oppress Rohingya Muslims in Maungdaw D July 2012, Myanmars Minister of Home Affairs told parliament that the authorities were tightening the regulations [against Rohingy
handle travelling, birth, death, immigration, migration, marriage, construction of new religious buildings, repairing and land ownersconstruct building [sic] of Bengalis [Rohingya] under the law.
4. DEHUMANIZATION: One group denies the humanityof the other group. Members of it are equated with animals, vermin, insects or diseases. Dehumovercomes the normal human revulsion against murder.At this stage, hate propagandaused to vilify the victim group.

5. ORGANIZATION:Genocide is always organized, usually by the state, often using militias to provide deniability of state responsibility. Special armare often trained and armed.In 1991-92, the Burmas military regime crushed opposition and repeat its 1978 Mass violence operation against Muslim Rohingyas in Rakhine Stasimultaneously promising Buddhist Rakhines that they could have the land of the Muslims in the hope that they would join in. Most Buddhbut the Army proceeded nonetheless and Muslim Rohingyas were driven out of their villages en masse once again, pressed into forced labour othe border, raped and killed, many of their children murdered.Over 250,000 fled to refugee camps in Bangladesh, while others crossed the borders iIndia and disappeared.7
6. POLARIZATION:Extremists drive the groups apart. Hate groups broadcast polarizing propaganda.
