The text says the image shows Buddhists murdered by Rohingya &#8211; members of a Muslim minority the book refers to as \u201cBengalis\u201d to imply they are illegal immigrants.\r\n\r\nBut a Reuters examination of the photograph shows it was actually taken during Bangladesh\u2019s 1971 independence war, when hundreds of thousands of Bangladeshis were killed by Pakistani troops.\r\n\r\nIt is one of three images that appear in the book, published in July by the army\u2019s department of public relations and psychological warfare, that have been misrepresented as archival pictures from the western state of Rakhine.\r\n\r\nIn fact, Reuters found that two of the photos originally were taken in Bangladesh and Tanzania. A third was falsely labeled as depicting Rohingya entering Myanmar from Bangladesh, when in reality it showed migrants leaving the country.\r\n\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_1078\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1078\" style=\"width: 613px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1078\" src=\"https:\/\/freerohingyacoalition.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/1535663403798.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"613\" height=\"825\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freerohingyacoalition.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/1535663403798.jpg 613w, https:\/\/freerohingyacoalition.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/1535663403798-223x300.jpg 223w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 613px) 100vw, 613px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1078\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The top screenshot shows a prize-winning image of Hutu refugees taken in 1996 following the violence in Rwanda.

Bottom: Myanmar Politics and the Tatmadaw: Part 1\/via REUTERS)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n\r\nGovernment spokesman Zaw Htay and a military spokesman could not be reached for comment on the authenticity of the images. U Myo Myint Maung, permanent secretary at the Ministry of Information, declined to comment, saying he had not read the book.\r\n\r\nThe 117-page \u201cMyanmar Politics and the Tatmadaw: Part I\u201d relates the army\u2019s narrative of August last year, when some 700,000 Rohingya fled Rakhine to Bangladesh, according to United Nations agencies, triggering reports of mass killings, rape, and arson. Tatmadaw is the official name of Myanmar\u2019s military.\r\n\r\nMuch of the content is sourced to the military\u2019s \u201cTrue News\u201d information unit, which since the start of the crisis has distributed news giving the army\u2019s perspective, mostly via Facebook.\r\n\r\nThe book is on sale at bookstores across the commercial capital of Yangon. A member of staff at Innwa, one of the biggest bookshops in the city, said the 50 copies the store ordered had sold out, but there was no plan to order more. \u201cNot many people came looking for it,\u201d said the bookseller, who declined to be named.\r\n\r\nOn Monday, Facebook banned the army chief and other military officials accused of using the platform to \u201cinflame ethnic and religious tensions\u201d. The same day, U.N investigators accused Senior General Min Aung Hlaing of overseeing a campaign with \u201cgenocidal intent\u201d and recommended he and other senior officials be prosecuted for crimes against humanity.\r\n\r\nIn its new book, the military denies the allegations of abuses, blaming the violence on \u201cBengali terrorists\u201d it says were intent on carving out a Rohingya state named \u201cArkistan\u201d.\r\n\r\nAttacks by Rohingya militants calling themselves the Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army preceded the military\u2019s crackdown in August 2017 in Rakhine state, in which the U.N. investigators say 10,000 people may have been killed. The group denies it has separatist aims.\r\n\r\nThe book also seeks to trace the history of the Rohingya &#8211; who regard themselves as native to western Myanmar &#8211; casting them as interlopers from Bangladesh.\r\n\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_1079\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1079\" style=\"width: 1500px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1079\" src=\"https:\/\/freerohingyacoalition.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/1535663441580.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1672\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freerohingyacoalition.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/1535663441580.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/freerohingyacoalition.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/1535663441580-269x300.jpg 269w, https:\/\/freerohingyacoalition.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/1535663441580-768x856.jpg 768w, https:\/\/freerohingyacoalition.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/1535663441580-919x1024.jpg 919w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1079\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The top screenshot shows a genuine photo from Getty Images depicting Rohingya and Bangladeshi migrants, who were trying to flee Myanmar, after their boat was seized by Myanmar\u2019s navy, near Yangon, in 2015.

The caption falsely says the image shows Bengalis entering Myanmar by boat. (Top: Getty Images, Bottom: Myanmar Politics and the Tatmadaw: Part 1\/via REUTERS)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n\r\nIn the introduction to the book the writer, listed as Lieutenant Colonel Kyaw Kyaw Oo, says the text was compiled using \u201cdocumentary photos\u201d with the aim of \u201crevealing the history of Bengalis\u201d.\r\n\r\n\u201cIt can be found that whenever a political change or an ethnic armed conflict occurred in Myanmar those Bengalis take it as an opportunity,\u201d the book reads, arguing that Muslims took advantage of the uncertainty of Myanmar\u2019s nascent democratic transition to ignite \u201creligious clashes\u201d.\r\n\r\nReuters was unable to contact Kyaw Kyaw Oo for comment.\r\n\r\nReuters examined some of the photographs using Google Reverse Image Search and TinEye, tools commonly used by news organizations and others to identify images that have previously appeared online. Checks were then made with the previously credited publishers to establish the origins of those images.\r\n\r\nOf the 80 images in the book, most were recent pictures of army chief Min Aung Hlaing meeting foreign dignitaries or local officials visiting Rakhine. Several were screengrabs from videos posted by Rohingya militant group the Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army.\r\n\r\nOf eight photos presented as historical images, Reuters found the provenance of three to be faked and was unable to determine the provenance of the five others.\r\n\r\nOne faded black-and-white image shows a crowd of men who appear to be on a long march with their backs bent over. \u201cBengalis intruded into the country after the British Colonialism occupied the lower part of Myanmar,\u201d the caption reads.\r\n\r\nThe photo is apparently intended to depict Rohingya arriving in Myanmar during the colonial era, which ended in 1948. Reuters determined the picture is in fact a distorted version of a color image taken in 1996 of refugees fleeing the genocide in Rwanda. The photographer, Martha Rial, working for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, won the Pulitzer Prize.\r\n\r\nThe newspaper did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the use of its photo.\r\n\r\nAnother picture, also printed in black-and-white, shows men aboard a rickety boat. \u201cBengalis entered Myanmar via the watercourse,\u201d the caption reads.\r\n\r\nActually, the original photo depicts Rohingya and Bangladeshi migrants leaving Myanmar in 2015, when tens of thousands fled for Thailand and Malaysia. The original has been rotated and blurred so the photo looks granular. It was sourced from Myanmar\u2019s own Ministry of Information.\r\n<div class=\"Attribution_container\">\r\n<div class=\"Attribution_attribution\">\r\n<p class=\"Attribution_content\"><em>Reporting by Poppy Elena McPherson; Additional reporting by Sam Aung Moon; Editing by Alex Richardson<\/em><\/p>\r\nThis report was published by coexist.\r\n\r\n[scribd id=387497361 key=key-alTTfgOaoJuWCWXGQsV2 mode=scroll]\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Poppy McPherson | Published by Reuters on August 31, 2018 YANGON (Reuters) &#8211; The grainy black-and-white photo, printed in a new book on the Rohingya crisis authored by Myanmar\u2019s <\/p>\n<div class=\"read-more-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/freerohingyacoalition.org\/en\/fake-photos-in-myanmar-armys-true-news-book-on-the-rohingya-crisis\/\" class=\"read-more\">continue reading<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1080,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mbp_gutenberg_autopost":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1076","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-in-the-news"],"rise-blocks_total_comments":6,"rise-blocks_categories":[{"term_id":11,"name":"In the News","slug":"in-the-news","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":11,"taxonomy":"category","description":"","parent":0,"count":136,"filter":"raw","cat_ID":11,"category_count":136,"category_description":"","cat_name":"In the News","category_nicename":"in-the-news","category_parent":0}],"rise-blocks_excerpt":"By Poppy McPherson | Published by Reuters on August 31, 2018 YANGON (Reuters) &#8211; The grainy black-and-white photo, printed in a new book on the Rohingya crisis authored by Myanmar\u2019s army, shows a man standing over two bodies, wielding a farming tool. \u201cBengalis killed local ethnics brutally\u201d, reads the caption.
