I have a suspicion of why the news is tip toeing around this. I'll keep that to myself. It has nothing to do with religion. 

1) Distancing from British responsibilty for creation of situation
2) Imperialist competition for influence with Burmese government ala US, Japan rivalry with China.
(Approach problem by 'imperialists sanctioning Burmese government' will only push them to embrace countries who don't.)
    The alternative of simply arranging safe new home for them whether in Bangladesh or elsewhere actually involves
    financial costs and domestic political implications wherever they would be settled, and that's complicated so why bother?
