[ALOCHONA] The National, UAE - Pakistanis take hard look at themselves after arrest of alleged would-be NYC bomber



Pakistanis take hard look at themselves after arrest of alleged would-be New York bomber

ISLAMABAD // The arrest and reported admission of guilt by Faisal Shahzad, the suspect in the failed bombing of Times Square and a US citizen of Pakistani origin, has highlighted a shift in public opinion in Pakistan about the origins of terrorism within its borders.

 

As recently as a year ago, when insurgents temporarily gained control over the district of Swat in north-west Pakistan and threatened to attack Peshawar, the regional capital, even many educated Pakistanis were not prepared to acknowledge the extent of militant religious extremism in their country.

 

Spoon-fed propaganda for three decades by a powerful nationalist lobby within the military, political parties and the independent media, many Pakistanis viewed international outcry about the residence of terrorists in the country's barely governed tribal regions bordering Afghanistan as part of an alleged US-Israeli-Indian conspiracy against Pakistan, in its role as the Muslim world's only nuclear weapons power.

 

However, prompted by the suspected activity and connections of Mr Shahzad, the scion of a socially privileged family that includes former members of the military hierarchy, Pakistanis are beginning to ask themselves incisive questions.

 

Leading anchors and opinion makers on independent Pakistani cable news channels were quick to focus on Mr Shahzad's military connections: his father was operation chief of the air force, and his uncle commanded Pakistan's tribal paramilitary force.

Matiullah Jan, current affairs anchor for DawnNews, a respected Urdu and English-language channel, said on his prime-time show: "Considering the armed forces' role in grooming militants for Afghanistan, surely this has to be viewed as a historical irony" .

 

Newspaper readers, commenting on stories about Mr Shahzad and his Pakistani linkages on the website of the Express Tribune, a Karachi-based English-language newspaper, voiced a collective desire to distance themselves and their compatriots from suspected terrorists.

 

Their frustration also surfaced as anger against the state organs that, in collusion with the western powers, had bred mujaheddin, or holy warriors, to further strategic interests in Afghanistan in the 1980s and 1990s.

 

"Military coups, provoking wars, killing prime ministers, training jihadists, and now breeding jihadists: yep, let's thank the army for the terrific impact they have on all our lives," commented Murtaza Ali Jafri, a reader.

 

Other readers voiced confusion about where to place blame for the New York bombing plot and other events unravelling in and around their country – a sentiment picked up by Talat Hussain, current affairs anchor for AajNews, a popular Urdu channel.

 

"A friend's wife said the arrest of Faisal Shahzad was like another twist in the plot of an Indian soap opera, where the faces and characters come and go, but the theme doesn't change," he told viewers.

 

Parents dropping off their children at school in Islamabad yesterday morning were aghast at the thought of Mr Shahzad, the suspected terrorist, being from a privileged background, instead of a brainwashed seminary student.

 

"Oh, the poor boy must have gone mad. Why did he do something like that? He surely could have had no reason to do such a bad thing," said Sehrish Anwer, a homemaker and mother of three students attending the Lahore Grammar School, a high school that follows the British curriculum.

 

Her 17-year-old daughter and high school senior, Iyla, said the suspected involvement of Mr Shahzad had shaken belief in conspiracy theories widely shared by students. "Now people will have to come to terms with reality – that this is our problem, not some Zionist-Hindu nationalist-whatever conspiracy, and we have to face it and fix it ourselves."

 

Readers of the Express Tribune drew parallels between Mr Shahzad and Ajmal Kasab, a Pakistani convicted on Monday of carrying out the November 2008 terrorist assault on Mumbai, and Aafia Siddiqui, an American-Pakistani found guilty by a US jury in February of trying to kill Americans while in detention in Afghanistan in 2008.

 

"The saddest part is some of our beloved fellow Muslims are suggesting that it's part of a global conspiracy against us," wrote Sheraz Khan.

 

However, the transition in thinking, while prominent among the emerging generation of educated Pakistanis, a minority, is far from complete and faces formidable hurdles because of the conflicting messages still being put out by different arms of the state and media.

 

Gen Athar Abbas, spokesman for the Pakistan army, told journalists in Rawalpindi on Wednesday that a claim by Hakimullah Mehsud, the fugitive leader of the country's largest militant faction, the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan, he was behind the failed Times Square bombing should be "taken with a pinch of salt".

 

Shah Mehmood Qureshi, the foreign minister, thought differently, telling CBS News that the attempted terrorist attack could be retaliation for US drone attacks on Taliban and al Qa'eda targets in Pakistan's north-west tribal areas bordering Afghanistan.

 

"This is retaliation. And you could expect that. Let's not be naive," he said.

 

Rehman Malik, the interior minister, had the oldest explanation of all to offer the media: "This could be a plot to defame Pakistan."

[ALOCHONA] Intelligence agencies report: 8 AL leaders behind campus unrest



Intelligence agencies report: 8 AL leaders behind campus unrest

Around 50 people who were found involved in tender snatching or extracting money from different quarters in the capital using the ruling party identity

Intelligence agencies have found eight suspected ring leaders of ruling Awami League who are allegedly partonising students unrest in different educational institutions across the country, sources said.

The main suspects are those political leaders who were deprived of getting nominations in the ninth parliamentary elections and also not properly evaluated even after the formation of the Awami League-led grand alliance government.

They have outstanding political background, especially a long career of doing student politics. They had close links with the father of the nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and are also very close to Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, the sources said."Apart from the ruling party activists - like Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL) and Awami Jubo League - some outsiders and even a quarter of the then 'special Bhavan' and local criminals were also found involved in creating a political turmoil raising some controversial issues with a view to serving their narrow personal interests," they added.

A high official of the law-enforcing agencies hinted that the party activists along with their hardcore followers are under the strict watch of the law-enforcers as the high-commands of the law-enforcing agencies have been asked by the Prime Minister to take necessary measures in this regard within the shortest possible time.

The sources said, with a malafied intention, their followers were asked to cover some assignments to tarnish the image of the ruling Awami League goverenment. The assignments include: indiscriminate attack on law-enforcers, assaulting female teachers, launching street agitation through various pretext and ransacking vehicles.

There is a widespread allegation that ring leaders of the trouble-makers remain behind the scene, it was said in the report which will be submitted to the Government's high-up soon.

Against the backdrop of frequent intra-party clashes, admission business, forcible occupation of students' dormitories, vandalising the academic institution, assaulting female students on campuses, tender manipulation and extortion, the Government high-ups have been asked to make a list of the suspect trouble-makers in the capital and across the county.

The intelligence agencies found that some of the field-level trouble makers have actually no political ideology. They usually change their level immediately after the political changeover in the country.

The intelligence agencies have already identified around 50 people who were found involved in tender snatching or extracting money from different quarters in the capital using the ruling party identity.

Earlier, the Awami League General Secretary and LGRD Minister Syed Ashraful Islam claimed that a unified Shibir activists have been replaced in the BCL committee. He passed such comment after an intra-BCL fighting on Dhaka University campus creating a widespread confusion in the party.

Echoing to the voice of the LGRD Minister, acting AL General Secretary Mahhub-Ul-Alam Hanif also said Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has asked the authorities concerned to take stern action against the culprit who are creating unrest and anarchy across the country using BCL identity.

A central leader of Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL) who did not want to be named told The New Nation Tuesday that some immediate-past BCL leaders were found involved in tender manipulation.

"Besides, there are some student leaders in BCL who were not seen earlier in the Awami League programme in the field during the party's tough time. Many dedicated student leaders were deprived of getting any post and position," he said.

A Jubo League leader - who was also a central committee member in Chhatra League (Shaeem-Panna) - claimed that there are some party men in Jubo League who have reportedly got central committee membership paying Taka one lakh to an influential quarter.

Party insiders said, that very guy was an activist of Islami Chhatra Shibir. Earlier, he remained into hiding for several years outside the country. After his return, he managed to get a membership in Jubo League.

Talking to The New Nation, BCL General Secretary Mahfuzul Haidar Chowdhury Roton denied Chhatra League's involvement with such widespread allegation.

He added that some outsiders and anti-liberation forces entered the BCL to foil image of the BCL which had a glorious contribution to the Independence of Bangladesh.

[ALOCHONA] India's concern on Bangladesh-China relations



Bangladesh on a Strategic Tightrope  

Col. R. Hariharan   

Sandwiched between two huge powers – India and China – Bangladesh has little option but to do a strategic tightrope walk in its external relations. While India is trying to flex its economic and political power beyond the confines of South Asia, China is bent upon becoming a global economic and military power. As they expand their influence, overlap of their strategic spaces becomes inevitable. This is already evident from the increasing Chinese foot print in South Asia prompting India and the U.S. to seek greater strategic convergence between the two countries. This makes the tight rope walk of Bangladesh a little more precarious, as it is located in the sensitive underbelly of India's troubled northeast region. 

Bangladesh with high population density and steady economic growth offers an expanding market for both countries. While India's geographic contiguity, shared histories and systemic similarities with Bangladesh confer certain advantages, China's bigger economic clout, larger variety of products and increasing global influence have their own attraction for Bangladesh. China has also the indirect advantage of being preferred by the strong anti-India element embedded within the body politics of Bangladesh that germinated when it was a part of Pakistan. 

For long, Bangladesh has considered itself strategically vulnerable to India because the giant neighbour occupies most of the land border. In a way this uneasiness is reciprocal because Indian strategists always talk of Bangladesh's physical domination of 'chicken's neck'- India's narrow and tenuous land corridor linking its troubled North-eastern region. Thus in India's strategic horizon, Bangladesh on its own merit, occupies an important place. Strategic importance of Bangladesh increased further after India embarked upon 'Look east policy' to expand its economic and strategic linkages with the ASEAN region and beyond. 

Bangladesh has a host of problems with India. This is rooted in mutual suspicion between the two countries for historical reasons and India's geographically unequal size as an economic and military power. This had stymied the relations between the two nations from evolving a win-win equation. They could not be resolved due to latent fear of Indian domination in Bangladesh's policy making abetted by India's patronising attitude and partisan support to Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and his Awami League party in early years of independence.   

Bangladesh relations with India took a nosedive after Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was assassinated and a military regime led by Major General Zia ur Rahman took over power in 1975. Zia had his own grouse against India; he accused India of harbouring pro-Mujib extremists' anti-government activities on its soil as a retaliatory exercise for elimination of Mujib. Elements of Left wing extremists hiding in Indian side of the border were also suspected to carry out hit and run strikes in Bangladesh. 

Prior to Bangladesh independence, Pakistan had used its eastern limb to needle India by offering sanctuaries to Naga and Mizo insurgents for their operations against Indian state. Bangladesh gained some notoriety for continuing the Pakistani practice of harbouring insurgent groups from India's northeast to carry out their nefarious activities with the tacit support of the anti Indian lobby in government.  

Till recently the United Liberation Force of Assam (ULFA) and Manipuri insurgent groups found refuge in Bangladesh under the patronage of national intelligence agencies. This became a major cause of concern for India after the notorious terrorist group Harkat ul Jihad I Islami/Bangladesh (HUJI-B) that had connections with Pakistani Jihadi groups, found foothold to launch its forays in India. The West shared Indian concerns as HUJI-B's presence had its connotations on the U.S. initiated "global war on terror" after 9/11 terror strike.  

The polity in Bangladesh is broadly divided in their attitude to India as a regional power and close neighbour. The Awami League that rallied the people during the freedom struggle is perceived as a pro-Indian party. The Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) founded by General Zia is the other major contender for power. It has on its side the support of anti-Indian elements including obscurantist Islamic parties like Jamaat e Islami. The BNP in collusion with right wing Islamic parties has used the anti-Indian sentiment to rally support at hustings. With political power changing hands between coalitions, India-Bangladesh relations failed to make any headway. Military regimes that came to power in between also had no inclination to improve relations with India.

So the victory of Sheikh Hasina Wajed, leader of the Awami League with a huge majority in the election held in 2008 signals greater cooperation between India and Bangladesh . Considered close to India, Sheikh Hasina has taken a number of initiatives to remove a few long standing irritants in the relationship between the two countries. These are curbing the right wing Jihadi extremist activity, arrest/eviction of Indian insurgent group elements operating from Bangladesh. But this is only a small beginning. There are many more issues to be covered. 

Significantly she visited India in January 2010 before visiting China in March 2010. In New Delhi, she signed three agreements with India relating to curbing of trans-border terrorist and criminal activity. Similar initiatives have been taken to institutionalise resolution of boundary disputes and the long standing maritime boundary issue between the two countries. A few other initiatives regarding trade imbalance, connectivity, communication, transit of Indian goods through inland river waters of Bangladesh and development of Mongla and Chittagong ports have been taken up. India has extended $ one billion line of credit to a range of projects mainly relating improving railway infrastructure.   

Bangladesh Prime Minister's visit to China after visiting New Delhi is typical of the country's desire to balance the relationship with the two giant neighbours. China-Bangladesh relations started off on the wrong foot as China was firmly aligned with Pakistan during the Bangladesh war of independence in 1971. In fact, even after Bangladesh became independent, China opposed the admission of Bangladesh in the UN.  

However, China mended its relations in 1975 and post-Mujib regimes had been actively cultivating China for strategic reasons as well as for trade and economic assistance. Heads of successive Bangladesh governments have been visiting China since 1977. With India's role remaining an incendiary element in Bangladesh politics, China has found it easier to build a cosy relation with Bangladesh Chinese assistance is primarily in the sectors of infrastructure development, telecommunications, and energy. In fact, China had emerged as the largest provider of military hardware to the Bangladesh armed forces. China has assisted in the construction of six major bridges in Bangladesh and China has agreed to assist in construction of a seventh bridge also. Prospects of building the eighth bridge was also agreed during the recent visit of Bangladesh Prime Minister.    

Apart from agreements extending economic assistance and facilitating free trade and assistance for infrastructure projects, there were Sheikh Hasina had made two proposals during her visit to Kunming in Yunnan. These could make Indian strategic planners sit up. Chinese are said to have agreed to consider her plea for assistance to build a road link from Chittagong to Kunming in Yunnan via Gumdum in Myanmar. (She is said to have discussed with the Mayor of Kunming, the possibility of building a rail link to Chittagong also.) 

This had been a long standing Bangladesh proposal; in fact Prime Minister Begum Khaleda Zia during her visit to Myanmar had signed an agreement for a road from Chittagong to Gumdum on July 27, 2004 after two year long wait. It was to facilitate Bangladesh's access to the Asian Highway on to East Asia. At that time Bangladesh had indicate its interest in developing the road-link system connecting Chittagong port with Kunming.  

Apparently Myanmar was lukewarm to the proposal and no worthwhile progress has been made. Bangladesh-Myanmar relations last year took a downslide after a stand off over Myanmar's offshore prospecting for natural gas in the disputed maritime region claimed by both countries. In view of this, implementation of the project may not come through immediately. 

Notwithstanding this, it is an important indicator. China has increased its stakes in Myanmar to gain direct access to Indian Ocean by passing South China Sea and Malacca Strait. The proposed Bangladesh road link also would by pass Malacca Strait and provide a direct access to South Asia from Yunnan enhancing China's strategic options in Indian Ocean Region.  

Similarly, Begum Hasina is said to have sought China's help to further develop the Chittagong port and develop a deep sea port at Sonadia Island. Even if China's objective is commercial its involvement in developing Chittagong port could be useful in gaining a foothold. China has already developed ports in Gawadar in Pakistan, and Hambantota in Sri Lanka; if Chittagong is taken up, it could provide yet another maritime infrastructure that could come in handy for China to fulfil its Blue Water ambitions in Indian Ocean Region. Thus Bangladesh has the potential become an important strategic staging post for China in South Asia. 

Sheikh Hasina is also reported to have requested the Chinese government to provide two frigates with three helicopters under long-term loan assistance. This perfectly balances increasing cooperation between the Indian and Bangladesh armed forces. Most of the other issues and agreements were follow-up of those taken up during the earlier visits of Bangladesh heads of state. 

There should be no illusion that regardless of their political affiliation, governments in Bangladesh would always balance their relationship with India using China as the counterpoise. Apart from strategic compulsions, political parties there have to contend with historical baggage on both sides of the border that colour their perceptions as well as the political influence of anti-India elements in electoral politics. At the same time, caught between the two big economic powers it is but natural for Bangladesh to try and gain the maximum from both of them. This is what Sheikh Hasina is doing – walking a tightrope while trying to ease Bangladesh relations with India.

Re: [ALOCHONA] [Diagnose] Saudi Arabia Cautioned Bangladesh



Dear Mr. Anis

As we are in the same train with a classy class of traitors who in guise of "DEMOCRAZY/FASCISM" are destroying the our values,beliefs n ideals n wanst us to be subjugative n that too of the HINDUS. So, we all concerned n patriotic forces do have great ONUS in confrintinmg these HINDUSTANNI

His Excellency Dr. Shah Mahmood:

 

Thanks for your response to my email. Let me address your questions or concerns categorically:

 

First, perhaps, you may remember when 'deep throat' broke out the news about "Watergate" scandal first, the newspaper never provided any evidence other than publishing the news. You and the whole world know what happened afterward including who and how facts were revealed, what consequences were followed and what was the final result, stepping down of the US president.

 

In this case, news about the "caution letter" is broken out. It is you who speak on behalf of Bangladesh Government should inquire with your administration (Bangladesh Government) first about the news and fact, but not by mentioning a statement of Saudi Arabian ambassador. Fact is fact and remember truths of the facts will prevail.

 

You and your Bangladesh Government have powers to do anything you want including prosecuting war crimes no matter what news is broken out or not. If your BAL's Bangladesh Government can prosecute war crimes, then do it without shouting irrelevant words or maneuvering facts.

 

Secondly, regarding visit of your Law Minister, I have right to say about his staying in this country for several days to meet with US Attorney General. He could have come for specific days to meet with specific US Officials to save poor Bangladeshi tax payers money. Why he, his wife, Attorney General and entire entourage stayed 11 (eleven) days in the United State spending poor Bangladeshi tax payers money if he really loves his country, Bangladesh? Even, any Secretary of the US Government (equivalent to Bangladeshi Ministers) never stayed that many days in any foreign country for their official visits. Do you or your Bangladesh Government ever think that the US Attorney General or any US Secretary will stay in Bangladesh that many (11) days? Also, it is a common sense, a law minister or attorney general of a foreign country should visit federal courts, but not a district court of a state.

 

Third, whether the dead body of late Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was buried in Tungipara, Faridpur or not, it the duties and responsibilities of the your current Bangladesh government to verify the truth of the news by having DNA test of the body like one current minister demanded for the DNA test of late Zaiur Rahman' body. I just have disseminated the email what I have received for the knowledge of Bangladeshi people.

 

Finally, as a citizen of the United States of America, I deserve the rights to express my views, opinion and disseminate any information as long as I follow the laws of this (USA) country. Also, as a Bangladeshi origin I also deserve the rights to express my views, opinion or disseminate information for the interest of the Bangladeshi as long as I follow the laws of the USA without serving for the interests of any foreign government like Bangladesh.

 

Thanks for your understanding, His Excellency Dr. Shah Mahmood, representative of the Bangladesh Government.

 

Anis Ahmed

Mr. Anis Ahmed,

I can feel from your emails that you have severe disliking for BAL, but that does not give you any right to spit out venom against the party and more so against Bongobandhu and his family  by spreading lies without any provocation. You know very well that there are news sources that sell fabricated stories just to push their sale up, but you should apply your basic intelligence to see which one is credible. I shall mention here three of your recent postings where you have purposefully tried to deceive the readers with false stories just to defame BAL.

(i)    Your latest posting on the caution letter from Royal Saudi Government talks about expelling 30 lac workers from Saudi Arab using 10 flights of 768 jumbo aircrafts daily over a period of 3 months and at the end, Bangladesh will lose a monthly remittance of $76 million. 
Don't you think that this kind of news would be at the top of headline news for the day and even for months? Why then there was not even a single mention of the news of this importance in the national media? The so-called caution letter (if there was any at all) must have reached Dhaka through diplomatic channel. How did only you and your friend get hold of the letter?


Please go to the following link and read what the Saudi Ambassador in Dhaka, Dr. Abdullah Bin Naser Al-Busairy, has recently said about the relationship between the two countries. He has even disclosed that his country has recently hired another 6000 workers from Bangladesh.

 

http://www.khabor.com/news/prabash/04/prabasher_news_04132010_0000010.htm



Now that you have been challenged, I shall request you to disclose the caution letter to the public.



(ii)    Several months ago, when the Hon. Law Minister and the Attorney General were visiting USA, you circulated an email under the heading "Law or Low Minister of Bangladesh" and you wrote "They are in the USA (spending poor tax payers money of Bangladesh) to observe court proceedings of a District Court and visit an Attorney's (lawyer's) office of Virginia State! Wow, what a great achievement of these top law enforcement officials of Bangladesh!"


Here again you lied to the readers. They did not come here using Bangladeshi tax payers money. They came here as invited guests of the Dept of Justice. Why did you circulate this kind of misleading information without knowing the fact? You even do not know why they were visiting District Court. This email is getting long, otherwise I would have elaborated their purpose of visit here.

 

Also, what do you mean by "Law or Low Minister"? He is a Minister for 160 million people and you should show decency and respect to the Chair.

(iii)    If I recall correcly, you distributed a story several months ago describing that the body of Bongobandhu is not there in his grave - some one  else is lying in that grave.

Mr. Anis Ahmed, you should have paused for a moment before circulating such a fabricated story. On each death anniversary of Bongobandhu, reporters from various media in Dhaka flock to Tungipara and interview the villagers in the neighborhood who took part in washing the body of Bongobahndhu before burial. These interviews have been aired many times by the TV channels in Dhaka and heard by the people throughout the world. Whose body did these villagers wash and put it in the grave?


I hope you will refrain from circulating any false and fabricated information in the future. Please remember that when you are redistributing a story, you are also tacitly endorsing the content of the story.

At least one thing is confirmed from Mr. Abu Zafar Mahmood s write-up, it's not the west as most radical Islamist claims but Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the leader of so-called Islamic world also thinks that there are ties to Terrorist Al-Quida link to some Bangladeshi outlet, who are they? It must be some political party who soft sell Islam fishing the big fish in murky water!

How true Abu Zafar Mahmood s write-up is remains questionable. There is another aspect of his write-up, Saudi support in favor of Jamaat-e-Isalmi who is the sole agent of unfavorable Wahabi Islamic thought in Bangladesh, I will write about this evil nexus separately. All I can say Bangladesh is not worried about what wealthy bailey-up Saudi Arabia will do in our internal matter, if they do that will be big mistake for them, we may be small but we are not like slave citizens of Saudi kingdom, we can act and react when needed.

I hope we all are very familiar with famous Bangla song which worked like fire during war of liberation:

    The said "caution" letter is about arresting a Bangladeshi born Al-Qaida terrorist and the actions will be taken by the Saudi Government. Saudi government's "Caution" letter containing "arrest" and "actions" has nothing to do with BNP, or Jamat-e-Islam party or war crime trial.
   
    Bangladesh became independence with sacrifices of millions of lives for not worshiping Indian or Saudi Government. Fact is fact and remember truths of the facts will prevail.

    Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and her govt. are engaged confronting Saudi Royal family. Some Bangladeshi news media propagate against Saudi Royals in an intention to hostile them against Bangladesh . Leading Muslim power Saudi Arab always maintain brotherly relation with Bangladesh . Some Politicians are becoming anti-Muslim for their political purpose and family interests. They sabotage to create distance between the two purposefully as they are assigned to act too.

   

    A group of analysts says, Saudi Royals found president Ziaur Rahman out and out honest and an exceptional personality with absolute dedication for enriching Bangladesh in 1975,which was beyond their expactation. Then supported Bangladesh where were needed under the leadership of that perfect statesman.

   

    Another lobby of political group could not accept Royal family's support to him as Ziaur Rahman for the first time introduced Bangladesh with it` Muslim identity & added Bismillah in the constitution of the Republic. That group accuses Zia for building up the state to state relation with the entire Muslim countries including Pakistan and China , the largest neighbor. They implement their all efforts to eliminate Zia policy from Bangladesh .

   

    The reality is that Bangladesh became independent defeating Pakistan Arm forces during liberation war and it is also reality that Pakistan Arm forces are mainly responsible to keep safe Saudi Arabia from external enemy. Two divisions (40,000) regular Pakistani Arm forces guard them with a life long treaty with Royal family.

   

    Saudi Arab maintains brotherly relation with both Pakistan and Bangladesh together. so, it might not treat it a fun when appears to them that their two brother countries go hostile against each other which might cause havoc in their greater interests. Organization of Islamic Conference-OIC leader Saudi Royal family can't avoid such enemity during present world order.Saudi Royal family already announced that one Bangladeshi is taken to jail as he was suspected Al-Qaida terrorist. If any foreigner found guilty in Saudi Arabia , according to their law, all the citizens of that foreign country are restricted to stay in the kingdom. They will have to get out or forcefully thrown out of the kingdom.

   

    Bangladesh foreign ministry was served a caution letter from the Royal Kingdom of Saudi recently which was handed over to prime minister already. The premier Sheikh Hasina disclosed her acknowledgement of receiving that letter when She accused her political opponents BNP and Jamaat-e-Islami in the parliament for lobbying Saudi Government to oust all Bangladeshis from the Royal Kingdom . It is enough for the intellectuals to believe that Leader of the Parliament know about the letter.

   

    Though the foreign secretary Mizarul Qaesh denied of knowing about such caution letter to the press media on April 11th, 2010. It carries no importance to accept because Prime minister already spoken on the same issue in the parliament.

   

    Bangladesh earns monthly $76 million Dollars from Royal Kingdom of Saudi Arab through remittance. Almost 30 lacs Bangladeshis (professionals to worker) live and work in there. where as almost 23,56000 are with legal work status.

   

    In that caution letter it was mentioned that the Royal Saudi govt. is ready with their 768 jumbo flights, daily 10 flights and take 3 months to drop out the entire lot in Bangladesh .

   

    If it happens, easy to guess, other Muslim countries are joining in the line behind Saudi Arabia . Bangladesh will find no scapeway. Malaysia already stopped recruiting people from Bangladesh .

[ALOCHONA] Bangladesh Leader Admits India Conspired To Invade East Pakistan

But she never said Bunga Bondho was a Traitor. He was elected leader of Pakistan. Everybody knows, what went on and you are trying to rewrite the history.
Pakistan's Dictatorial Government-bakced NSF Terrorists had been cutting ropes of Tents of every Political gathering and terrorizing any democratic voice being raised by the majority of East Pakistanis all the time. East Pakistan had become a virtual Occupied Land of West Pakistan.
MookTi Bahini did not have even Fire Arms, when it had started. Why don't you go to your loving Pakistan if you hate Bangladesh so much and get killed by Taliban just like Pakis are getting killed by thousands every year ....?

Bangladesh Leader Admits India Conspired To Invade East Pakistan

 

Mujeeb's daughter admits her father was a traitor, says Indian helped him raise an Indian-backed terror militia that raped and plundered in order to malign Pakistan Army

 

India's advocates in Washington and London have argued for years that Pakistan is the source of tension with India. They conveniently forget where it all started: the unilateral and unprovoked and premeditated Indian invasion of Pakistan in 1971, preceded by careful planning over two years to recruit a terror militia and spread violence and mayhem to engage local Pakistan Army units in East Pakistan, paving the way for a direct Indian military invasion, which was a one-sided violation of international law.  India is an aggressor in the South Asia region.  Pakistan's policymakers are right in demanding a mindset change in New Delhi for peace to prevail.

DHAKA, Bangladesh—For the past 39 years politicians and the 'Blame Pakistan first' crowd have blamed Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto for saying "Humm iddhar tum uddhar" (a quote attributed to Mr. Bhutto that means, 'You stay there and we stay here, a quote which has since been refuted as bogus), and blamed the Pakistan Army for the attack on the Indian-backed Mukti Bahni terrorists on March 23 as the reason for the creation of Bangladesh.


Ms. Hasina Mujib the daughter of former East Pakistan politician Sheikh Mujib Ur Rehman has now confessed that her father Sheikh Mujib had planned to secede from Pakistan in 1969–two years before the March 23 'military action' against Indian saboteurs and their misguided supporters among disgruntled East Pakistanis.

 

General Mankeshaw wrote a book in which has claimed that he recruited 80,000 Hindus to create the Mukti Bahni. These terrorists were dressed up in Pakistan Army uniform and raped and pillaged Pakistani Bengalis. They also were dressed up as civilians carrying out acts of sabotage against the civil and military government of Pakistan.


Sheikh Hasina Mujib's confession [See report below] sheds new light on the events of March 23, 1971, because it proves that the Agartala Conspiracy was a real conspiracy sponsored by India against Pakistan and that the then President of Pakistan Ayub Khan had rightly described Sheikh Mujib Ur Rehman as a traitor.


After breaking up Pakistan and declaring independence thanks to direct Indian military intervention, the Indian-backed Mujib regime killed more than 30 thousand Pakistani Bengali patriots who opposed Indian takeover.  Mr. Mujib's first actions were to surrender the natural resources of Bangladesh to India. This includes water. These actions by the pro-Indian regime caused the man-made famine of 1974, in which three to five hundred thousand people perished, according to reports.

 

Mujib suppressed all democratic rights and unleashed a reign of terror. His main concern was to contain a population that was just waking up from the disaster and did not accept the breakup of Pakistan. In the above circumstances, according to some, Bangladesh faced extinction as an independent nation and was about to become a vassal state of Indian hegemonists.

 

The coup of 15 August 1975 saved the situation to a large extent and it was widely supported by the people. On August 14, 1975, Bangladeshi nationalists buried secularism deep into the Bay of Bengal. Today Bangladesh faces new threats from India. After failing to take over Bangladesh in real terms, India is forcing a transit policy on a defenseless Bangladesh.  The transit facilities that India is demanding would clog existing Bangladeshi road links and pose a security threat to Bangladesh.


PLANNED INDIAN AGGRESSION AGAINST PAKISTAN

 

Bangladesh's founding leader Sheikh Mujibur Rahman had made detailed plans for secession from Pakistan during a stay in London in 1969, his daughter and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has said.


Sheikh Mujib discussed his plans at a meeting held a few months after his release from prison following a prolonged trial in the Agartala conspiracy case in which then Pakistan government had brought sedition charges against him and 34 others, Hasina told a meeting Sunday.


They were charged with conspiring to separate from the then East Pakistan with help from neighbor India. Agartala is the capital of Tripura state in northeastern India. Political analysts say her disclosure, reinforced by the claim of her own presence at the meeting, could be a scoring point in the ongoing debate on who actually declared the country's independence, or separation from Pakistan.


Mujib's role is disputed by opposition leader Khaleda Zia. Zia's supporters claim that it was her husband and then Pakistan Army major Ziaur Rahman who had first broadcast a freedom speech.


Referring to this debate, Hasina urged all to go through the reports of intelligence agencies and foreign ministries of different countries. Mujib, who became Bangladesh's president, was assassinated in August 1975. Ziaur Rahman, who became the army chief and later the president, was assassinated in 1981. Siffy News. Mujib planned separation from Pakistan in 1969.


Sheikh Mujib met an ignominious end on 14th August 1975, when Bharati conspiracies to absorb Bangladesh into Bharat were buried deep into the Bay of Bengal. On that day Bengali patriots killed the traitor who had declared himself "dactator for life" and banned all Bangladeshi political parties.


Bengali patriots killed Shaikh Mujib who was seen as an Indian agent and a sell out to Delhi. Bangaldeshis revolted against the Indian imposed "Rakhi Bahni" (run by a sitting Indian General) and rose against the so called "Treaty of Friendhsip" whose aim was to absorb Bengal into India. Shaikh Mujib's body lay in the streets of days. It was Awami League of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman that mortgaged the national independence and state sovereignty signing the 25 years long-term unequal treaty with India. By creating Rakkhi Bahini, Lal Bahini, Sheccha Shebok Bahini and other private Bahinis AWAMI-BKSALISTS unleashed an unbearable reign of terror killing 40000 nationalists and patriotic people with out any trial. Ishaan Tharoor in an article in Time magazine published on Nov. 20, 2009 "To outsiders, this celebration of a justice [death penalty for mutiny against Mujib) long deferred may seem a bit too rapturous. But it cuts at the heart of the political traumas that have plagued Bangladesh since its bloody independence from Pakistan in 1971. Mujib had been President of the new country for just four years before a coup hatched by disgruntled military officers, some of whom harbored Islamist or pro-Pakistani sentiments, led to his assassination and the installation of a military government. Since then, Bangladesh has endured a succession of army-run regimes, as well as a period of dysfunctional democratic rule marred by corruption and partisan bickering.

 

Yes; my father did break Pakistan, confesses BD Premier

 

Daily Mail Monitoring

Sunday, 7 March 2010

Dhaka—Bangladesh's Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina Wajid has confessed that her father Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was a traitor who formed a detailed conspiracy to break Pakistan into 2 pieces with the help of the Indian government during his stay in London in 1969.


Hasina was addressing a discussion in Dhaka to mark the 'March 7,1971' speech of mutiny, in which Sheikh Mujib called on the people of East Pakistan to prepare for the secession from the rest of Pakistan.


She said that her father made separation plans just months after his release from Kurmitola where he had been detained in the Agartala Conspiracy Case, in which the Pakistan government had brought sedition charges against him and 34 others.


"He went to London on October 22 1969, following his release in the Agartala case on April 22 that year. I reached London the next day from Italy, where I was living with my husband," she recalled.


"It was there that my father at a meeting made plans for separating West Pakistan from East Pakistan, including when the war would start, where our fighters would be trained and where refugees would take shelter."


"All preparations were taken there (London). I was serving tea and entered the room several times where the meeting between my father and some Indian officials was being held. I heard their discussions," the Prime Minister said.


Referring to the recent debate over who first proclaimed Bangladesh's independence, she urged all to go through the reports of intelligent agencies and foreign ministries of different countries.


She also said the Aug 15 1975 assassination of her father and family members, and the Jail Killings of four national leaders on Nov 3 the same year, were planned by those defeated in the war to take revenge for their defeat.


"Those who rewarded the killers had never expected Bangladesh's independence. They wanted to impose the principles of the defeated forces on the people," she added.
