This is not an issue to most Bangladeshis. We are a magnanimous and sophisticated nation where a dozen innocent and poor people shot dead at the border is well understood to be necessary for regioanl feng shui. We are more concerned about who was wrong or right in the 1970s.
Let us all join hands next time a poor farmer is shot dead and sing with tears in our eyes,,, "Ami Bangla Gaan Gai..."
Freakin even Kentucky Fried Chicken has billboards advertising our war of independence.
