Western notions of Asian Buddhism are “boutique” to say the least. They are Judeo-Christian and Pagan in nature and have little to do with actual Buddhist teaching. The Theravada Buddhist traditon has been fighting a rear-guard action for centuries against British imperialism and US neo=imperialism. Since Carter’s Administration, the US has took advantage of poorly educated Muslim people and convinced them to interpret the Holy Qur’an through a racist and fascist interpretation (through specially trained US Operatives such as Osama Bin Laden – aka Col. Tim Osman of the CIA). This type of Islamo-fascism was used by the US overthrow the Socialist government of Afghanistan and to attack and undermine all the Arab Socialist regimes that support the Palestinians and oppose the genocidal policies of Zionist Israel. ISIS and Al Qaeda has NEVER attacked Israel or any Israeli assests. Within Burma, Muslims from Bangladesh have been used yo invade the country and attack the Buddhist population in the name of US foreigh policy (hence Obama wining and dining Aung San Suu Kyi). Aung San Suu Kyi used to be the darling of the West – as she promised to convert Burma into a liberal, democratic, capitalist State (against the will of her people) – but where she drew the line was the West’s insistence that Islam violently replaces Buddhism in her country. Believe it or not, the US (via Gambia) has manipulated the International Court of Justice (ICJ) to consider whether Aung San Suu Kyi has committed “genocide” by not preventing the Burmese military from defending the indgineous Buddhist population against Rohingya violence. As far as I am concerned, Aung San Suu Kyi finally saw throw the Western lies and acted in the best interests of her country. More to the point, the above BMA (UK) article examines a leading Buddhist monk and his resistance to US-inspired Islamo-fascism.
