RE: [mukto-mona] A case against me

WRT: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/mukto-mona/message/45396

I have the following to add in response to Mr Subimal Chakrabarty's posting:

First of all, with regard to my guru, Professor Serajul Islam Chowdhury's article on the Trial of War Criminals, I would simply assert that considering it a superb piece, a wonderful article by SIC I am in 100% agreement with him that all war criminals should be tried without any compassion or reservations, at least for the sake of justice. I have absolutely no point of difference in this regard (period).

On other points raised by Mr Chakrabarty, I would reserve my comments as his assertions are both historically grossly incorrect and from the point of social science simply untenable, wrong and convoluted. I wish I had the time to write an essay on what is civil war, what is rebellion etc. Neither rebel;lion has a negative connotation nor civil war is something pejorative. When Bengalis and non-Bengalis,Hindus or Muslims, Tamils and Sinhalese of a particular place or country fight with each other, that is a civil war. As rebellion (a by-product of revolt) may turn into a liberation war, similarly a civil war can eventually take the shape of a freedom struggle.

Warm wishes to all,
Taj Hashmi
