No, Bangladesh do no need any land from myanmar. but if things continue as such and myanmar continue their treachery with Bangladesh, then a time will come when frustrated Rohingyas will take up arms in a large numbers, Bangladesh and other sympathetic countries then should help them to form a 100 thousands strong army and support them to liberate a portion of Northern Arakan so that refugees can be settle there.After refugees settle there, Rohingyas have to maintain a combat readiness to defend their territory with the help of sympathetic countries. Already Shan, Karen and Kachin rebels control their respective liberated territory which are each many thousands of sq. km in size. Rohingyas also need the same.

Your plan would only work with BD supplying an airforce to Rohingyas.
Arakan is the golden goose for BD and needs to liberated from the savages. Savage land is totally isolated and BD needs to take advantage.

Under UN law BD can not canpture Arakan. But BD can covertly support separatist like Rohingya, Arakanese and Kachin people. It will be a virtual nightmare for Myanmar.

Bangladesh is without teeth to support the separatists in Arakan, Kachin or Shan rebels. The present BAL govt does not want a rebellion orchestrated in a Muslim majority zone in MM. Whatever may be our support for them the Rohingyas have a mind of medieval Muslims. Any clandestine arms support will radicalize them to another group of Taliban that will destabilize BD also. Direct BD-MM war is different.

But the history says it otherwise. Most rebellion in Arakan since 1947 were in secular nature. None of them ever indulge to any terrorist activity inside MM or inside BD. We should not prejudge anybody.

I agree with you. Surviving rohingyas are not educated enough. But, we can support other rebels...

Direct BD-MM war is different.

What exactly we will gain from this? If we fight, there must be some benefits for Bangladesh...

We support fight only if the north of Arakan can be separated into a separate entity. Direct annexation is quite a difficult task for a poor country like BD. We cannot do what Russia can do in this age of the 21st century.

Only the Rohingyas can do it with support from BD. But, once they start a guerrilla war, Burmese airforce will strike our industries/port in Chittagong. BAF is nothing comparing to MAF, and I have reasons to believe that with China and Russia behind Burma, they may not sell sophisticated planes as well as parts to the BAF.

Why did BD not kill Myanmar soldier in retaliation for killing of BGB trooper?
Stupid pathetic AL.
Time for full scale military buildup and the regular bombing of savages to keep them in stone age forever.

Many experts know that BD would lose to MY in a conflict. I don't think it be wise for you guys to start a war.

!947 was different for BD, Pakistan or the Rohingyas. Muslims started being radicalized since the departure of the British all over the Muslim world. Rohingyas are more so. They are uneducated in the sense that they learn the Arabic language because of its relation to Islam. They also study Urdu because it is the language of the Sub-continent Muslims. They have little or no access to non-religion subjects.

It is quite easy to radicalize them once a war starts. Radicals from BD, Pakistan, ISIS and Taliban-all kinds of terrorists will spread their wings over them.

There is no question of supporting Kachin and Shan rebels.They are very distant entity from Bangladesh border and they already get enough supports from other sources.They are big forces with there own controlled territories.Those territories are like independent state bordering Thailand and China outside of burmese control.

Bangladesh has border only with Rakhine and Chin state. So if our secret intelligence have to support anybody, it should be Rakhine and Chin rebels.This is what logistically feasible and will serves our interests.

and I have reasons to believe that with China and Russia behind Burma, they may not sell sophisticated planes as well as parts to the BAF.

Most likely be supplying both sides.Both China and Russia also have extensive economic and military interests in Bangladesh.Both country consider Bangladesh to be an important defence market.Just because China, Russia save burmese skin in UNSC, does not mean they will support myanmar unilaterally if war ever breakout really between BD and myanmar. If Bangladesh started behaving like myanmar and sent 1 million Bhuddist to myanmar rohingya style and faced UN and western condemnation, I think China, Russia would have done same for Bangladesh as they are doing for myanmar now.China may also try to mediate between BD and myanmar to end hostility.When Bangladesh and myanmar locked in a naval stand-off in 2008, China and Russia did not express support for any party, rather China shown diplomatic activism to defuse the crisis.They will take similar approach in future I think.
