God's Army (revolutionary group)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about the militant Burmese Christian group. For the American pro-life terrorist group, see Army of God.
God's Army is an armed revolutionary group that opposes the Theravada Buddhist military government of Myanmar and advocates a doctrine vaguely based on principles of Christianity. They are based in Thailand, and conducted a string of audacious guerrilla actions—for example, seizing the embassy of Myanmar in Bangkok—during the 1990s and early 2000s, which have been described as acts of Christian terrorism.
The group was led by brothers Johnny and Luther Htoo beginning in 1997, who were at that time estimated to be only ten years of age.
