Saw recent news about some modern-day wars and ethnic conflict among people of Hindu and Bhuddist faiths.
The first is from Northeast India, a case of Hindu Meitei vs. Christian Kuki. In this case, the Christian Kuki chose to fight by using arson, and the Hindu Meitei chose to fight by killing the Christian Kuki. Wikipedia suggests that it was mostly instigated by the Meitei, especially one particular leader who wanted to expand into the Kuki lands. A genuine case of Hindus not being peaceful.
The second is the Myanmar Civil war. Myanmar is about 90% Bhuddist. This war has been going off-and-on for more than half a century. Apparently the current Civil War going on is as bad or worse than the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
