[ALOCHONA] WATER TERRORISM



WATER TERRORISM
 
Pak-India friendship is the most essential and almost inevitable element for a long lasting and deep rooted peace in South Asia. The present warlike scenario along the Pak-India borders can adopt an altogether different look if the two countries put aside all their differences, ignoring the past and simply keeping in view the regional betterment. Some people might call this situation nothing but 'a day dreaming' but dreams are the foundation of reality.
 
The Indian premier Dr. Man Mohan Singh in one of his recent statements has expressed his willingness regarding the friendly relationship between the two neighbouring countries. He has very strangely given a different colour to his traditional approach towards Pakistan that the investigation process regarding the Mumbai blasts must not hinder the peace process between the two countries. In other words he has supported the stance of Pakistan that the non-state actors should not be allowed to mar the efforts for good relationship between two countries. This change in the behaviour of the Indian prime minister is something very positive and admirable.
 
The people of Pakistan are expecting from him the same gentleness in the solution all other deep rooted conflicts. The river-water issue is one of the most grievous problems which would never let the two countries come close to each other if not timely and properly taken care of. India is curtailing the down stream water coming towards Pakistan by making dams at various points; and all this is being done in violation of the Indus Water Treaty.
India knows very well what happens when rivers are deprived of water.
 
Recently Indian media has raised a great hue and cry regarding a proposed dam on the Brahmaputra River by China. This project has been given different names; The Zangmu Hydroelectric Project, Yarlong Tsangpo and The Yarlungzangbo. This alleged project is expected to generate 540 mega watts of electricity. According to the Indian media the Chinese are planning a series of five dams along this river in the Nanshan Region of Tibet at Zangmu, Jiacha, Zhongda, Jiexu and Langzhen.
 
The government of China has officially expressed its annoyance at this baseless propaganda and ranked it as 'rumors ignited by exaggerators'. According to the official sources of China there is no concrete decision on these projects so far. When compared with China, India is a lower riparian country. The hue and cry raised by the Indian government through its media shows its fearful reservations about water diversions and storage plans. But on the other hand, Indian attitude towards its own lower riparian countries is shockingly contrary to what it feels about China.
 
Water stealing has been a hobby of India since long. The neighbouring countries like Pakistan and Bangladesh are the worst victim to this hobby. For so many months, Dr. Soibam of Earth Sciences University Manipur had been warning the government of India of the serious environmental threats regarding the construction of Tapaimukh Dam on Barrak River in Manipur state. He had pointed out the presence of active earthquake fault lines beneath the construction site but his warnings were intentionally ignored because the Indian planners had something else in their minds. The only purpose behind the construction of this dam was to cause a virtual draught in Bangladesh by destroying its fisheries, agriculture and trade. The construction of controversial Farraka and Teesta barrages was also based on the same ill-will against Bangladesh.
 
Same is the case with the construction of Baghliar Dam on River Jhelum in the Indian Occupied Kashmir. India has already diverted the waters of River Chenab just to turn Pakistan into a barren land. The most painful fact is that India has done all these constructions in violation of the Indus Basin Water Treaty signed by India and Pakistan somewhere in 1960.The World Bank was the guarantor of this treaty. Pakistan, on the basis of this treaty, compromised its water rights on River Satluj, Ravi and the River Beas. India in turn had promised to leave the water of Jhelum un-diverted. Pakistan invested a lot in construction of link canals to irrigate affected areas of lower Indus Basin.
 
The encroachments on Pakistani waters like Baghliar Dam are a heinous effort of destroying the whole of social and economic fiber of Pakistan. Man Mohan's comments regarding the revival of peace process are surely encouraging but without redressing these grievances the peace caravan can never proceed smoothly. If the Indian premier is really serious in his desire for peace in the region, he will have to play a Captain's Innings. The diversion of Pakistani river waters and human rights violations in the Indian Occupied Kashmir are the two basic problems which always hinder the peace process between the two countries. Along with the water conflict, he must keep in his mind that Kashmir is the core issue between India and Pakistan.
 
It is a nuclear flash point in South Asia and has the potential to spoil the regional peace at any moment. There is a dire need to resolve this issue at priority, otherwise peace and progress will remain a far cry for the region while the terrorism and extremism will keep haunting both India and Pakistan with considerable negative impact on the development of other South Asian nations.
 
The picture of life in the Indo-Pak subcontinent is gradually getting a new colour. The terrorists are being crushed and terrorism is being dispelled. Now there is no more room for any kind of atrocities and human rights violations. Depriving fertile lands of water and human beings of their basic human rights is also a form of terrorism. Mr. Man Mohan Singh could certainly become a legendry immortal figure if he succeeds in saving his neighbours from these two horrible forms of terrorism.

[mukto-mona] Texas grocery owner bars Niqabi woman from entering store

Friends,

Sooner or later this had to happen. An Arlington, Texas grocery owner
barred a Niqabi woman for entering his store. She claims
discrimination and is now asking Muslims to boycott the store.

http://www.averroespress.com/AverroesPress/Main/Main.html

Shame on the Saudi sponsored clerics who are using Muslim women as
foot soldiers to carry forward their jihadi agenda

" Since 9/11, the United States has spent $15 billion in Pakistan, mostly on military support, and today Pakistan is more unstable than ever. In contrast, Bangladesh, which until 1971 was a part of Pakistan, has focused on education in a way that Pakistan never did. Bangladesh now has more girls in high school than boys. (In contrast, only 3 percent of Pakistani women in the tribal areas are literate.)
Those educated Bangladeshi women joined the labor force, laying the foundation for a garment industry and working in civil society groups like BRAC and Grameen Bank. That led to a virtuous spiral of development, jobs, lower birth rates, education and stability. That's one reason Al Qaeda is holed up in Pakistan, not in Bangladesh, and it's a reminder that education can transform societies".

আমার দেশ কোনটি!

চিত্রা পাল

শিশুবেলায় একদিন রাতের গভীরে বাবার হাত ধরে পালিয়ে ছিলাম। কতক্ষন হেটেছিলাম মনে নেই। ঘুম ভেঙ্গে দেখি গভীর জঙ্গলে  এক মুসলমান বাড়ীতে। শিশু মন বাবাকে প্রশ্ন করে বহুবার। বাবা উত্তর দেন, কাশ্মীর নিয়ে ভারত পাকিস্তান সীমান্তে উত্তেজনা চলছে । ভারত পাকিস্তানে উত্তেজনা হলে সুদুর নোয়াখালীর শহরতলীর এক গ্রামে কিছু হিন্দু পরিবারকে পালিয়ে আশ্রয় নিতে হবে প্রতিবেশি মুসলমান বাড়ীতে!

আবার পালাতে হোল ১৯৭১ সালে। তবে সে সময় বুকে ছিল শৃংখল ভাংগার মুক্তির শপথ। যুদ্ধ শেষ।  ধন হারালাম। হলাম শহীদ পরিবার। তাতে কি? হিন্দুদের মুক্তি মেলেনি। বিশ্বের সেরা গৌরবময় সংবিধান রচিত হয়েছে। শুধু রোচিত হয়নি সংখ্যালঘুদের গৌরব ময় ইতিহাস। হয়েছে ক্ষমতার বদল, রাজনীতির বদল, বদল হয়নি হিন্দুদের ভাগ্যের করুন কালো আইনের। ভারতীয়রা পাকিস্তানের শত্রু সে সুবাদে বাংলাদেশের হিন্দুরাও শত্রু। পাকিস্তানের  সীল মারা শত্রু সম্পত্তি ৭১রের পর স্বাধীন সরকার নামকরন করে অর্পিত সম্পত্তি বলে। বাংলাদেশের  হিন্দুরা কি বাংলাদেশী, না পাকিস্তানী, না ভারতীয়! তাদের দেশ কোনটি!

 

 ১৯৭২ সালে চোখের সামনে গুড়িয়ে দিলো বিদ্যাদেবী স্বরস্বতীর মুর্তি গুলো। তারপর বহুবার দেখেছি শস্মান ,মন্দির, মুর্তি ভাংগার পৈশাচিক হিংস্র তান্ডব।একই ভাবে চলছে গত ৩৮ বছর ধরে ধর্মীয় সংখ্যালঘুদেরদের রাজনৈতিক অরাজনৈতিক ভাবে কৌশলগত রুটিন হত্যা, উচ্ছেদ-বিতাড়ন। শুধু তাই-ই নয় দীর্ঘ্য তিনশতক ধরে গড়ে ঊঠেছে গনধর্ষন ও জোর পূর্বক ধর্মান্তরিকরনের মত অভিনব বিকৃত পচন সংস্কৃতি।

 

  সংখ্যালঘু সম্প্রদায়ের একজন নারী আমি। আমি বাংলাদেশের একজন তৃতীয় শ্রেনীর নাগরিক। শাখা সিদুর পরার বিড়ম্বনা প্রতি মহুর্তে অনুভব করেছি কর্মস্থলে হাটে বাজারে। আমার ধর্মীয় বিশ্বাস পালনের অধিকার আমার জন্মগত। স্বাধীন দেশের স্বাধীন সরকার সাংবিধানিক ভাবে কৌশলে আমার মানবাধীকার লংঘন করে। তার জন্য বাংলাদেশের সকল সরকারের বিরুদ্ধে মানবাধিকার লংঘনের অভিযোগ আরোপ করছি। বিশ্ববাসীকে জানাতে চাই, বাংলাদেশে ধর্মীয় সংখ্যা লঘুদের রাষ্ট্রকতৃক সাংবিধানিক ভাবে মানবাধিকার লঙ্ঘিত হচ্ছে বছরের পর বছর ধরে।

[mukto-mona] RE: [Progressive-Muslim] FW: [AmeriConscience] Fw: The FBI Raid and Shooting Death of Imam Luqman



Dear Anis sahib,
 
Assalamu Alaikum.It is your mis-understanding that confusion has come from Hadith and Fiqh.In fact on the issue of Jihad, non-Muslims who do not well quote Quran , mainly some verses of Sura tauba. If there is some problem in Fiqh, this can not be so big as fiqh part which is based on Ijtihad is not binding .As regards Hadith, nobody requires to accept any weak Hadith or which is not sound according to Matn examination and Sanad examination.
 
Dear brother, you have an un-necessary allergy about Sunnah or Hadith.Quran only will not take yoy anywhere.It has failed in history because this approach is not academically sound in the light of Quran and Islamic history 9 works of most great scholars 0

Salam,

            Yes, that is a dire criminal act done by FBI. However after September 11 and so many suicide bombings in Iraq, Pakistan, Palestine, Afghanistan and other countries, non-Muslims are in terrible confusion as to what is the religion of Islam(which was said as a religion of peace!). The number of those terrorists in Islam is not very big but enough to tarnish the image of Islam so badly! So for non-Muslims it is very very difficult to believe that Islam is the religion of peace rather than the religion of terror! That is why all those unwanted and sad incidents are happening. You must understand what is the root cause of the terrorism in orthodox Islam(hadiths and fiqa) and try to uproot those! That will be the real good work for Muslim and humanity at large. Thanks and regards.

                                Anis 

[The holy Quran 2:256] “There is no compulsion in religion; truly the right way has become clearly distinct from error; therefore, whoever disbelieves in the evil and believes in Allah he indeed has laid hold on the firmest handle, which shall not break off, and Allah is Hearing, Knowing(about what you are doing).”

“[The holy Quran 10:99] Had your Lord willed, all the people on earth would have believed. Do you want to force the people to become believers?”

THE FBI RAID AND SHOOTING
DEATH OF IMAM LUQMAN

IMAM LUQMAN
Lexington, KY (10/29/09) - It is with deep sadness and concern that we announce the shooting death of Imam Luqman A. Abdullah, of Masjid Al-Haqq (Detroit, MI).  Imam Luqman was a representative of the Detroit Muslim community to the "National Ummah" and the general assembly (Shura) of the Muslim Alliance in North America (MANA).

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) announced that their agents shot and killed the Imam during a raid related to a criminal complaint alleging that members of the mosque were engaged in criminal, but "not terrorist activity."   This tragic shooting raises deep concerns regarding the use of lethal force by law enforcement agents.

Since the investigation was "solely criminal" based upon "smuggling and fraud," we urge law enforcement and the media not to take undo advantage of this tragedy in order to demonize American Muslims generally, and those who are African American Muslims in particular.

The National Community or "Ummah" was established by Imam Jamil Al-Amin (formerly known as H. Rap Brown).  It is an association of mosques in several cities in the
U.S. that coordinates religious and social services primarily in the Black American community. Reference to the "Ummah" as a "nation-wide radical fundamentalist Sunni group consisting primarily of African-Americans" is an offensive mis-characterizatio n.

To those who have worked with Imam Luqman A. Abdullah, allegations of illegal activity, resisting arrest, and "offensive jihad against the American government" are shocking and inconsistent.  In his ministry he consistently advocated for the downtrodden and always spoke about the importance of connecting with the needs of the poor.

It is our hope and prayer that a thorough investigation will be carried out with the greatest integrity. We urge the Muslim community and all Americans committed to justice to actively monitor both the investigation and trial of the accused. Also, we urge law enforcement authorities to release Imam Luqman's remains expeditiously so that they may be buried according to Islamic practice.

MANA is committed to the establishment of viable, healthy and dynamic Muslim communities, neighborhoods and institutions that meet the religious, social, economic and political needs of the Muslims in this land. For more information about MANA's programs including SHARE centers, Healthy Marriage Initiative, Community Re-entry Program; as well as the National Campaign for Healing & Reconciliation, visit our website at www.mana-net. org.

[mukto-mona] FW: Political Culture Declining Further in Bangladesh :AL Accuses Khaleda Zia Of Conspiracy



 

 

 

 

Political Culture Declining Further in Bangladesh :AL Accuses Khaleda  Zia  Of Conspiracy

National dailies have reported that senior Awami League lawmakers on Thursday accused the opposition leader Khaleda Zia of being a party to the conspiracy behind the October 21 bomb attack on AL lawmaker Fazle Noor Taposh. They termed the attack a deep-rooted conspiracy against the country's independence, parliament and democracy. They also pointed out it had occurred at a time when the trial of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman's killers was at the final leg and when the government had initiated moves to try war crimes and perpetrators of the grenade attack on Sheikh Hasina in 2004. The treasury benchers also asked the government to form a high-powered investigation committee to find out the conspirators who are beneficiaries of Sheikh Mujib's murder. The conspirators have got united and the attack on Taposh was aimed at destabilising the democratic process, they added.
   Suranjit Sengupta called on the government to issue a statement on the attack to keep the nation abreast of the latest information.'This attack is not merely on Taposh. It is an attack on democracy, constitution, independence and parliament,' he said, blaming the forces who acted against the country's independence and their collaborators for the attack.Sheikh Selim  castigated Khaleda Zia for not condemning the attack on Taposh and accused her of being part of the conspiracy. 'Why did not she issue a statement? She must be part of the conspiracy,' he fulminated, adding that the opposition party has been making underhand efforts to grab state power illegally by misleading the countrymen with false statements. The deputy leader of the house, Syeda Sajeda Chowdhury, suggested that the speaker fix a date for general discussion after consulting the prime minister, Sheikh Hasina. The deputy speaker, however, proposed it should be held on Monday.

 

We are at a loss to see such fulmination against Khalida Zia, a former Prime Minister.Bomb blasts are almost routine in Bangladesh and for that to blame a former Prime Minister as a part of conspiracy shows total loss of political decorum.Bangladesh is losing all sense of political propriety and law and order is at stake.

 

We have seen how daughter of an accused in Sheikh Mujibur Rahman assassination case has been remanded for five days with her one year old child.We have also seen how all relations of the accused in the case are being arrested and taken on remand.We have also seen how a remand matter of an ex- minister ( who was shown as arrested in an old case only two days back) has  moved to Appelate Division so fast  .It is the talk of the town that Attorney General has said in this case ( when pointed out that the ex-minister is very sick and can not walk ) that case can be filed if he dies in remand in the custody of the police. The government is following vendetta and in future any possibility of rapproacment is receding. Bad days ahead for Bangladesh.

[mukto-mona] Case of Sri Sri Shitala and Kali Temple, Lakhpur Bus Stand area, Thana- Fakirhat, District- Bagherhat, Bangladesh [24 Attachments]

[Attachment(s) from Sonatan Foundation included below]

Our Speech

 

We need UNITY to all of our minority people and organizations to protest that type of militant activities.

 

With the reference to the case of "Sri Sri Shitola And Sri Sri kali Temple Occupy and Threat to Religious Sentiment" (Please see the attached documents). We are very much shocked and embarrassed for untold and inhumane torture of the minority people at stated place in Lakhpur Bus Stand Area, Thana- Fakirhat, District- Bagherhat.

 

The responsible communal people and the godfathers involved in the destructive violence must be brought under rules and order and given proper punishment but what are we getting?

 

We (minority community) are the citizen of a democratic country like Bangladesh; under democratic government from where we can expect justice and harmony.

 

We would like to get proper action from the government, civil society, well-wishers, media and concern bodies; we are urging the government and other concerned bodies to take necessary steps against the evil deeds.

 

We are requesting to take necessary steps and actions against violent behavior.

 

Regards,
