The UK planted this seed of hatred between Myanmar & Rohingya during the British colonial era by introducing Rohingya into Myanmar in huge numbers to counter the Japanese imperialism. During those dark days, the Rohingya killed many Myanmar people and the UK connived at such atrocity because of its political interest.

Therefore, the Myanmar military is taking revenge now by doing the same act against the Rohingya. Many western media selectively omit to report the past atrocities committed by the Rohingya people.
This was the reason why Aung San Suu Kyi was silent about the killings because she understood the history very well. She was also powerless to go against the Myanmar military as the military was taking a tit-for-tat action due to the historical burden. If she were to go all out to protect the Rohingya people, the Myanmar military would go against her completely and branded her as a western puppet and traitor.
Who was to blame for this ethnic cleansing then? The main culprit was UK!

Historically speaking, the Rohingya people were never part of Myanmar in the first place.
Therefore, when the UK invaded Myanmar with Rohingya people, the Rohingya people shouldn't cry foul.
This would be akin to the Japanese who invaded China and cried foul that the Chinese killed Japanese during WW2.
