It’s pronounced Rohingya, not Macaca…
After calling attention here at Talk Islam in January to this gentleman’s online racist rants against the Rohingya, he removed said rants from his blog. However his comments live on in infamy here at TI, should he decide to go into politics or something…

Howdy. I’ve never heard of macaca used as an insult before. Pity the Rohingya, between a rock and hard place.
Question: Pork is a no-no to eat for Islam adherants, so why did I just read that the Marsh Arabs of Iraq (Ma’dan) traditionally eat wild boar? What is up with that? Is that like the Catholic tradition that beavers are friday fish?

The Marsh Arabs are not all Shi’i Muslims; some of them are members of other faiths, most notably Mandaean.
