While these propagandas are going on against Bangladesh for so long, I don't see any end to this. While the citizens of other countries such as Israel and India are busy building the images of their countries at home and here in USA, despite having lousy human rights condition, people of Bangladesh are busy destroying the image of Bangladesh both in Bangladesh and USA. Bangladeshis are more interested in the two corrupted political parties and their two leaders (netries) than anything else. We need to know why Selig Harrison produced such an imaginary story, it is because he is a full time slave of Indian community of USA. Bangladesh communities in USA and Britain are burden for Bangladesh, because only thing they do for Bangladesh is destroy the image of their country under the umbrella of the two political parties. Now-a-days their full involvement is to free their leaders unconditionally and re-introduce the corruption. To attain this, they are ready to do anything including branding Bangladesh as anything.

Get a grip on Dhaka : Outlandish Proposal Selig S. Harrison, director of the Asia program at the Center for International Policy and a senior scholar of the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars has written in Los Angeles Times on July 2, 2008 and has made some outlandish claim Part of his article reads " while the CIA and the Pentagon search in vain for Osama bin Laden in the mountains of northwest Pakistan, an Al Qaeda affiliate has been quietly building up terrorist bases in the jungles of Bangladesh under the protective aegis of a new military regime in Dhaka allied with Islamist forces. Bush administration officials privately endorse mounting Indian evidence that Bangladeshi Harkat agents spearheaded a series of terrorist attacks in India -- in Mumbai and Banaras in 2006, in Hyderabad in 2007 and in Jaipur in May. But the United States has conspicuously failed to press Bangladesh's military ruler, Gen. Moeen U Ahmed, for a crackdown on Harkat and for the removal of highly placed intelligence officials with Islamist ties.He says that Moeen Ahmed is maneuvering to break up the two biggest secular political parties and muzzling the media.but Harkat, Jamaat-i-Islami Bangladesh and other Islamist groups that support the military regime are operating unhindered. As the fourth-largest Muslim country in the world, with 150 million people, Bangladesh matters to the United States in security terms because Harkat and its allies have direct links to anti-U.S. Islamist forces in Pakistan. These links predate the secession of Bangladesh from Pakistan in 1971. When respected Bangladeshi journalists have attempted to write about Islamist sympathizers in the military regime and their links with Islamabad -- naming names -- they have faced death threats and assassination attempts. Western think tanks, their experts and journalists, most of them , are good in manufacturing stories full of lies, half-truths and imagination. The accusation about Bangladesh Army is totally groundless, this is a primarily Muslim army, and they believe in Islam and practice Islam This is just natural and what these Western writers want is de-Islamisation of the army. Their claim that Harkat is building up in Bangladesh with the assistance of the army is a hundred percent fabrication. There are terrorist groups of various kinds , mostly Maoists, and we do not know about the extent of Harkat but we can say that the government of Bangladesh is taking all possible actions against such groups. It is another big lie that the government is backing the Jamaate Islami and other Islamic forces. Another lie is that terrorist activities in India are the work of Bangladeshi outfits.We are sorry at such stories of so-called enlightened writers of the West. We know they will never change. Venom against Islam, Muslims and Islamic organizations is in the blood of most of them |
