With utter disgust, comparing Zia with Zafar goes far beyond the civic norm. For comparison sake, Mujib's ruling can be truly compared with Hitlar. Rise of Hitlar is no different than rise of Mujib, in a different scale. 1. Mujib formed BAKSAL, Hitlar formed Natszi party with absolute monarchy. 2. Mujib formed Rakshi Bahini, Hitlar formed Nazi Army to crash the opponents. 3. Mujib starved his people to death in 1974 by millions, Hitlar starved Jews to death by millions. 4. Mujib conspired with Indira Gandhi in Agartala by signing secret agreement, Hitlar signed contract with dictator Mussolini. 5. Mujib promised not to break the confederation with Bhutto, later broke his promise. Hitlar signed contract with Britain and later broke his promise. 6. Mujib crashed and killed his opponent, including SIraj Sikdar. Hitlar crashed and killed his opponent with iron fist. 7. Mujib dreamed to be the sole dictator of Bangladesh and formed BAKSAL to assume sole presidency by dissolving parliament and banning all political party, Hitar banned al opposition political party and assumed the sole owner of Nazi party. 8. Mujib was about to titled of 'Bongeshor' in a ceremony of Dhaka University just before he was killed in 1975. Hitar wanted to be the 'supreme power' of the world by defeating every country just before he killed himself with Eva Brown. 9. Hitlar had Joseph Goebells to propagate lies, Mujib left Hasina to spread lies and venoms against her own people. Lets talk history!

Lesson from Plassey - Zia vs Zafar [Barrister MBI Munshi's writeup revisited] Zia vs Zafar Monday October 24 2005 23:08:53 PM BDT
MBI Munshi, Bangladesh First published in "News rom Bangladesh": http://www.banglade sh-web.com/ view.php? hidRecord= 67716 Nabab Siraj was not an excellent ruler; East India Company and their collaborators publicized him as an eccentric autocrat. He could not save his grandfather's kingdom from the British merchants. He was too lenient to the merchants and too naïve about their intention. Ultimately, his naiveté and lenience paid off. He lost his kingdom and life; Bangla lost its independence. After 100 years of bad publicity by British and their local collaborators he cam back in the pages of history as a symbol of our independence; a symbol of our lost pride.
Modern propaganda ministers and pet historians also publicized Sheikh Mujib as a bad ruler too. People thought everything would be solved automatically after the independence, denying the fact that nation building is a long term tedious job. No nation has been developed until several decades of independence. Modern day Robert Clive, Jagat Shetth, Rajballav, etc. were working behind the scene.
Eventually Mujib was pushed to establish a totalitarian system BAKSHAL; even though he said, "if my people don't like it, I will revert" in a speech. General Zia wrote an article in Daily Bichitra supporting BAKSHAL. Despite being a lenient ruler he will be in the pages of history as he led the nation to independence. His vigorous stance for Bangalee rights amidst Paki generals' red eyes will keep in the pages of history as a super hero.
The independence lost through Siraj's defeat in 1757 was gained back by Mujib's rigid struggle for "six-point demands," win in 1970 election, unbending negotiation tactics with Paki dictators and finally the Liberation War.
Siraj's death led to a dark era of colonial rule. Mujib's death prompted a U-turn from the spirit of liberation and eventually brought the War Criminals and religion traders to power. From a plural secular nation the U-turn took us back to a backward nation that is longing for 7th century style theocracy; that is intolerant to minorities (Hindus, Kadianis, etc.). Now the country is heading for a Taleban style revolution.
The British merchants and their local collaborators like Jagat Shetth, Raj Ballabh gong and their successors, denigrated Siraj for a century after 1757. Mustaq-Zia- Ershad-Golam gong blacked out Mujib from Bangladesh for a long time after 1975. Siraj's killer Miran, backed by British and Mir Zafar, never faced justice for killing the Nabab. Mujib's killers, backed and rewarded by Mustaq- Zia- Ershad-Khaleeda gong escaped justice too.

Lesson from Plassey
23rd June. The 252nd anniversary of Plassey Tragedy. This day is the mourning and pathetic day for patriotic nationalist and Pro-Islamic people. Plassey always encourages the people of our country to forge a solid-rocked national unity and defend the independence, sovereignty and Islamic values of our country. The hearts of the people trembled with fear while hearing the hollowness of Plassey. After the death of Nawab Ali Bardi Khan, his beloved grandson Siraj-ud-dowla ascended the throne and became the last independent Nawab of Bengal, Bihar and Orissa. The young Nawab Siraj-ud-dowlah always tried to defend the independence of Bengal since his ascession to throne. His close relatives and royal servants could not accept him since his ascession. Some plotters injected conspiracy to dethrone him at the Qasim Bazaar Kuthi. Of them Ghasheti Begum, Raja Raj Ballabh, Raydurlabh, Jagatsheth, Raja Krishna Ballabh, Manik Chand, Amir chand, Amir Beg, Khadim Hossein, Yar Latif Khan, Watson and Commander-in- chief Mir Jafar Ali Khan were the plotters. Moreover, some exclusive Hindu government employees and Brahminist Hindu Zam-indars dissatisfied with Nawab Siraj-ud-dowlah and implicated with the plotters to dethone him. At a moment, a hostility was created between Nawab Siraj-ud-Dowlah and the British East India company focusing to fortify the Fort William in Calcutta. The East India Company accomplished to fortify the Fort William disparaging the decree of Nawab. Therefore, Nawab Siraj-ud-Dowlah invaded Calcutta and conquered the Fort William. After that, the East India Company rescued the Fort William and Joined with the Plotters to dethrone Nawab Siraj-ud-|Dowlah. At a moment, a treaty was singed between Mir Jafar and Robert Clive to make Mir Jafar the puppet Nawab of Bengal, Bihar and Orissa. Once Nawab Siraj-ud-Dowlah decided to fight with the alien East India Company on the battlefield of Plassey. He caused to take an oath with Mir Jafar and others to fight with the East India Company touching the Holy Quran at any cost. But he could realise that Mir Jafar would betray him. In June 23, 1757 CE, both the Nawab's troops and Clives English troops were gathered near by the Bhagirathi river. There were 57,000 native soldiers of Nawab's forces and there were 3000 English soldiers of Clive's forces. At a moment, a fierce battle was broken out. First, the cannons of Nawab forces were roared. Of 57,000 native forces, the commander-in- chief Mir Jafar, Jagat Sheth and their troops enjoyed the Battle standing on the battle field like puppet. The commander Mohanlal, Mir Mardan and French Commander Sinfrey fought valiantly to stem the British forces. We came to know that Jagat Sheth helped Clive's forces actively and joked with Mir Jafar sitting on an elephant. Once, Mir Jafar advised Nawab Siraj-ud-Dowlah to cease the battle and Nawab decreed to cease the battle believing Mir Jafar. Before that, the English forces fled to the mango grove in the wake of strong resistance of Nawab's forces. After the ceasefire, the Nawab forces went to the tent. At that time Mir Jafar sent a letter to Robert Clive to raid on the Nawab's forces. Then, the British forces swooped down the Nawab's forces and Nowab's forces were diverted. At that time, Mir Mordan was martyred from the fire of Cannon. Nawab Siraj-ud-Dowlah was defeated deplorably and helpless Nawab went to Murshidabad. Nawab Siraj-ud-Dollah started his journey to Patna by boat with his wife and daughter aimed at fighting with the British forces again to defend the independence. On the way of his jouney to Patna, he was nabbed by the forces of Mir Qasim at Bhaghwan gola and sent with his wife and daughter to Murshidabad. He was detained at a closet of Zafargonj. The betrayer Mir Jafar became the Puppet Nawab of Bengal, Bihar and Orissa by the help of British forces. Both Clive and Miron, the son of Mir Jafar selected Mohammadi Beg to assassinate Nawab Siraj. Mohammadi Beg assassinated Nawab Sirajud-dowlah in July 2, 1757 CE. Thus, Bangladesh as well as the Sub continent was subjugated by the British rulers for two-hundred years. With the continuous struggle after Plassey, Bangladesh got her aspiring independence through the war of liberation of 1971. So, we can teach lesson from Plassey, if we cannot defend our freedom and sovereignty, we will have to bear another threat like Plassey. Despite achieving independence, the cluches of vultures have fallen on our country yet as well as we are victimised of alien aggression. Here is some references i.e., the US imperialists intend to set up their military camp in our country, the Indian hegemonists are also directing their water aggressions on our rivers such as turning our lands of the country into a desertification with building both Farakka and Tipaimukh Dam. But some new Mir Jafars keep silence. After that both the US imperialists and Indian hegemonists are plotting to sway over Bangladesh for a long time. Some so-called Pro-US and Pro-Indian Civil Society, intellectuals and the donors implicated with the alien conspiracy. Consequently, the state Emergency was imposed by the masterminds of those conspirators and empowered the illegal army-backed caretaker government in January 11, 2007. The illegal army-backed caretaker government was prevailed for two years. The patriotic people came to know that who are the real traitors, betrayers, subservient and puppets of alien forces. They did many anti-state activities against country's interest by imposing illegal power as subservient of both US imperialism and Indian hegemony. As a result of their conspiracies, the alien forces empowered the grand alliance governemnt to implement their interests. The persons now in power and the groups of civil society are New Mir Jafors. The present government adopted subservient foreign policies like the then 1/11 government to the alien forces such as formation of Anti-terrorist South Asian Task force with USA and India, TIFA treaty with USA, giving corridors to India in the name of Asian High Way and giving opportunity to the US to set up their naval camps on the plea of building deep sea-port in the Bay of Bengal etc. Moreover, the marciless killings at Pilkhana, harrassment of some NSI officers with 10-arm's haul case without any cause despite the implication of Indian insurgents in this case astonished the people. In this way, the independence, sovereignty and Islamic values may be destabilised due to the anti-state activities of the government and New Mir Jaffors in the name of Pro-US and Pro-Indian intellectuals of Civil Society. The government should give up these activities and should give the priority over the country's interest. So we have to realise that the Plassey can reiterate over the country and destabilise our sovereignty, independence and Islamic values. So, it is the duty of all to forge a greater national unity and defend our independence and sovereignty with the lesson from Plassey. |
