[mukto-mona] Fw: Boston’s Jihadi Terrorists & The Chechen Connection



Boston's Jihadi Terrorists & The Chechen Connection - Rachel Ehrenfeld, Lorenzo Vidino

Saturday, April 20th, 2013 @ 5:04AM


Dzhokhar Tsarnaev has been taken alive in Watertown, Massachusetts, this evening.
It is now clear that the Boston Marathon bombing was carried out by Islamist jihadis. It has to been kept in mind that there are two kinds of Chechen terrorists: anti-Russian Chechen nationalists and Chechen Islamists. The terror in Boston was carried out by jihadis who were ethnically Chechen.
Although it will take a while for all the details to come out regarding the Tsarnaevs' exact connections and motives, it is also highly unlikely that that the brothers were completely independent operators.

Re: [mukto-mona] Fw: [baainews] Re: [KHABOR] Reminder: Embassy of Bangladesh--Painting Exhibition --19 April 2013--6:30 PM



"Why Bangladeshi and highest US award recipient Dr. Mohammads Yunus has not been honored by Bangladesh Embassy?"------Mohiuddin Anwar
 
Any foreign country can honor or insult any Bangladeshi. Does it mean that the government of Bangladesh has to echoe it? I don't think so. Many countries in the past have even defied the Nobel prize awarded to their citizens. All these awards can be political and can be conflicting with the government policies and interests.  
 Dr. Younus is a controversial person. So are his works. Role of Grameen Bank has both been praisd and criticized. His high ambition is well known. There are rumors in the market that he spent money to get Nobel and and also he sabotaged the Padma Bridge Project. But his support to the Minus Two Theory and ambition to climb to the highest power of the country were crystal clear. That angered both Hasina and Khaleda. Khaleda has no principle. Embarassing Hasina is her motto. Looks like Hasina has not been able to "broaden" her heart enough to congratulate Younus. As the prime minister of the country she has not done any thing wrong.

Mr. Mohiuddin Anwar   Your writing does not make sense to me in fact we should honor both the person you talking. You should not question why we honor Indian Bangali noble laurate Amaratya. Actually we should give respect to all Bengali achivers. Dr, Younus is a great dignity for us and we should be proude as Bangladeshi and as Bengali and also we should be prode for Indian Bangali noble laurate Amaratya as Bengali.  We were all together in the past but in course of time they are separated and you are separated too though you are linked to Bengladesh but in course of time your and my future generation will no more talk about Bangladseh. I have seen lot of Bengali origin people they do not know even one word from Bengali language. 
 
You are saying we are an unfortunate nation on Earth, but why? What you are saying it seems that you are frastated.
I think we should be proude to be BENGOLI, and Bengali nation is one of the most intelligent nation in the planet but there may be some thing wrong, we can not prosper, but we will. Don't worry the days are coming most of us will try to go back to be proud to be Bagladsehi. This will happen only if Bengali people become honest and hate corruption and present power grabing situation goes. Technology is everywhere and we the bengali can catch faster than anybody else. We should be prode to be Bengali who gave us everything, including opening our eyes in the universe through birth.
 
We should all help Bangladesh to get rid of poverty. We will put poverty in musium, says Dr. Younus...I am proude to be Bengali who as bengali boy was moving in village bare footed, going to school crossing river by swiming wearing one shirt and one pant became graduate from BUET, a government finaced university. In USA can you find some university where everybody studying free? In USA you can not even think to be an engineer or any degree holder without money..you will have to take loan which we should hate, again, interest paying and giving bribe we should avoide in bothway, giving and taking..
 
Simple life is better and if you want to see go to Saudi Arabia and see the Beduin who refused to live in government given luxary apertent free in the heart of every city Jeddah, Riyadh and Dammam etc and was waiting  20 years but the Beduins  did take because they like and prefer their village life as farmers and taking care of goat and lamb.
 
You shoud not write this type of writing which is totally wrong.
Sorry for writing all this which came from my heart but not to hurt you. Please do not take otherwise..but I know
still you love Bangladesh though you are saying unfortunate..
We should be prode for our culture...and many more...

Mohammed Aziz, P.Eng

Why Bangladeshi and highest US award recipient Dr. Mohammads Yunus has not been honored by Bangladesh Embassy ?
He was in town recently to receive this most honored U.S. congressional award.
We all Bangladeshi Americans are proud of his achievement ?
Why we honor Indian Bangali noble laurate Amaratya instead of Dr. Mohammad Yunus ?
We are an unfortunate nation on Earth

Re: [mukto-mona] লেখা প্রত্যাহার ও ক্ষমাপ্রার্থনা : 'টিভি ক্যামেরার সামনে মেয়েটি'



Is it the editor of the Prothom Alo who apologized to the Khatib for hurting the feelings of the Muslims by publishing a so called anti-Islamic cartoon although the cartoonist had no intention to insult his dear prophet and religion?
 
There is nothing wrong in publicly apologizing to the Shahbagis for undermining the role of this great movement. This will rather remove the misunderstanding as regards his role in recent movements. Apologizing for wrongdoings (intentional or unintetional) will ease the tension on both the sides.

Fictional stories usually have fictional characters; this story revolves around a real-life woman activist in the Sahbag movement. Even if we consider it as a fictional story


>>>>>>>>>> That is why I have SUPPORTED withdrawing the story (Albeit it was reported as fiction). As I said before, none of our works, words and actions should hurt people (Male or female). If we can make this world a little better, I consider that a success.

As I said, Prothom-Alo did the "Right thing". However some of us are overreacting as well (personal opinion).

We live in an environment where character assasination of "REAL people" are marketed as "Free speech" (Really hate speech) and people are "Fight mode" over fictional character in a well known progressive newspaper.

Well the author felt he made a mistake and it would be better if we can move on.

Some of the people felt that, just withdrawing the story was not enough. The editor of Prothom-Alo have to appear at "Gonojagoron Moncho" and publicly offer apology.


It will be interesting, if they get such an "Apology"(Forced).


Shalom!

Fictional stories usually have fictional characters; this story revolves around a real-life woman activist in the Sahbag movement. Even if we consider it as a fictional story, the writer's intent was to paint the image that those women activists in the Sahbag are there just to look for love, nothing else. Ms. Majid is 100% right in her assertion that this writer has defamed and undermined all women in the society. People who cannot see this angle of the story are, either consciously or unconsciously, supporting the radical Islamist views of the woman.

       A fiction writer does present an 'opinion' or a point of view from where the characters and event of the narrative are presented. The main character is recognizable -- an everyday girl, a working girl, struggling to get ahead in life having gone through earlier life of getting herself an education.  She is an aggregate, a collective representative of people gathered at Shahbagh movement whose real purpose is to resist the onslaught of religious fundamentalists robbing the nation of its ideals of secularism or cultural pluralism for which the Liberation War of 1971 was fought. The author of the story successfully undermines all of this in one fell swoop by demeaning the girl as nothing but a piece of FLESH.  A consumer item of male human beings.

   Hasnat Abdul Hai wanted to rob the girls of Shahbagh of their basic, inalienable HUMANITY! He wants to remind you that women have no humanity no matter how hard they try, they only have BODY (no mind), to be consumed by males, therefore, they are exclusive property of males. Please, raise your voice of protest if you are a fellow human being!

While I do support "Prothom Alo" withdrawing the STORY but I feel some people are overreacting.

Gentlemen and ladies this was a FICTION. NOT a news report NOT an editorial. It was printed as fiction and technically should be covered by concept of "Free speech". However it is always preferable to be polite than be right when we deal with emotion of a lot of people.

So Prothom Alo did the right thing but some members are showing a level of hatred and intolerance that is unhealthy.

Why get into character assasination over a FICTION?

দয়া করে পড়ুন এবং জানুণ শাহবাগী মেয়েদের কি অবস্থা হয়...

টিভি ক্যামেরার সামনে মেয়েটি

হাসনাত আবদুল হাই | তারিখ: ১৩-০৪-২০১৩
মেয়েটি অনেকক্ষণ ধরে তার পেছনে পেছনে ঘুরছে, সেই অনুষ্ঠান শেষে হলঘর থেকে বেরিয়ে আসার পর থেকে যখন তার চারদিকে ভক্ত ও তদবিরবাজদের ভিড়। এত ছেলেমেয়ের মাঝখানে সাদামাটা প্রায় ময়লা কাপড়ে উসর-ধূসর চুল মাথায় বিদ্ঘুটে রঙের সালোয়ার-কামিজ পরা মেয়েটির প্রতি তার চোখ পড়ার কথা না, তবু পড়ল। এতে তিনি বিস্মিত হলেন এবং কিছুটা বিরক্তও। অনেকেই তার দৃষ্টি আকর্ষণের চেষ্টা করে। কেননা, তিনি শুধু একজন সেলিব্রিটি নন, ইংরেজিতে যাকে বলে ফেভার। তা অন্যের প্রতি দেখানোর মতো তার যথেষ্ট ক্ষমতাও আছে। সেলিব্রিটির পেছনে, ছেলেমেয়েরা ঘোরে মুগ্ধতার জন্য অথবা কিছু পাওয়ার আশায়। সংসারে সবারই কিছু না কিছু চাওয়ার আছে। জীবন যতই জটিল হচ্ছে, চাওয়ার তালিকা বেড়েই যাচ্ছে। চারদিকে প্রতিযোগিতার দৌড় জীবনকে আরও জটিল করে তুলছে। মেয়েটি নাছোড়বান্দা, তিনি যতই তার দিক থেকে মুখ ফিরিয়ে নেন, সে ঘুরে এসে দাঁড়ায় সামনে, প্রথম সারিতে না হলেও দ্বিতীয় কি তৃতীয় সারিতে। দেখতে সে সুশ্রী নয়, তবে তার চোখে-মুখে তীক্ষ একটা ভাব আছে, নতুন ছুরির মতো। তার চোখের নিচে ক্লান্তির কালো দাগ, মুখে একধরনের রুক্ষতা। আগে সেখানে যে কমনীয়তা ছিল তা মুছে ফেলেছে। ঠোঁট দুটি চকচক করছে, যেন গ্লিসারিন মাখানো। আসলে সে ঘন ঘন জিভ দিয়ে শুকনো ঠোঁট ভিজিয়ে নিচ্ছে। গলার নিচে কণ্ঠি বের হয়ে এসেছে, ওপরের দিকে গলার মধ্যে কয়েকটি ভাঁজ, সেখানে ঘামের পানি জমে আছে রুপার চিকন হারের মতো। শুকনো খড়ের মতো চুল উড়ছে বাতাসে। প্রায় ময়লা সবুজ ওড়না লাল কামিজে জড়ানো শরীরের ওপরে একটা স্তন ঢেকে রেখেছে, বুকের অন্য পাশে ওড়না কামিজের কাপড়ের ওপর ছড়িয়ে রাখা, প্রায় সমতল দুই দিকেই, হঠাৎ দেখে ছেলে কি মেয়ে বোঝা যায় না। মেয়েটি বাংলাদেশের পতাকার রং দিয়েই সালোয়ার-কামিজ বানিয়েছে অথবা সেই রকম তৈরি করা কাপড় কিনেছে। আজকাল অনেকেই এভাবে কাপড় পরে, কিছুটা দেশপ্রেম দেখাতে, কিছুটা ফ্যাশন স্টেটমেন্টের জন্য। মেয়েটা দেখতে সুশ্রী না হলেও বয়সের জন্য একধরনের আকর্ষণ আছে তার শরীরে। অগোছালো বেশবাস সেই আকর্ষণে একটা বন্যতার ভাব সৃষ্টি করেছে, যেন সে যেখানে খুশি লাফিয়ে পড়তে পারে। দেখেই মনে হয় খুবই বেপরোয়া আর অ্যাগ্রেসিভ।
বুঝলেন স্যার, ওরা আমার সঙ্গে পলিটিকস করছে। সামনের সারিতে থাকতে দিচ্ছে না। অথচ এই কদিন আমি সামনের সারিতে দাঁড়িয়ে থেকে স্লোগান দিয়েছি। আমার গলার স্বর এত উঁচু যে মাইক্রোফোনের বলতে গেলে দরকার হয় না। এক মাইল দূর থেকেই শুনে বুঝতে পারবেন এটা আমার গলার স্বর। মিটিংয়ের জন্য স্লোগানের দরকার, স্লোগানই মিটিং জমিয়ে তোলে। আপনি নিশ্চয়ই জানেন। অভিজ্ঞ লোক আপনি। আমি কয়েক দিন মিটিং জমিয়ে রেখেছি শুধু আমার গলার জোরে স্লোগান দিয়ে দিয়ে। কাগজে আমার নাম এসেছে। টেলিভিশনে আমাকে প্রায়ই দেখিয়েছে। পাবনা থেকে দেখে আমার ছোট বোন ফোনে বলেছে, আপু তোকে দেখা গিয়েছে। কয়েকবার। তুই খুব মাতিয়ে রেখেছিস। আমার মাও প্রশংসা করেছেন দেখে। কেন করবেন না? নিজের মেয়ের খ্যাতিতে কোন মা গর্ব অনুভব করে না? বাবা? না, তিনি কিছু বলেননি। বেতো রুগি, বিছা�

Dear Brother Anwar Mohiuddin,

Salam.

Yes - I definitely agree, but to the extent that students will be taught their respective religions only - Hindu, Buddhist, Christian, and others must not be forced to learn Islam.

When I was a high school student (in 1960), we had Religious Teachers at school to teach religions. It is my understanding that schools in Bangladesh still following that practice. Even if I promote secularism, but I am a practicing Muslim and definitely not against other religions. To me, each and every religion in the world is good. I have never heard any religion advising its followers to do anything bad to the society. It is really the people that are manipulating the good religions for their ill motives.

I invite all of you to please leave extremism and promote the moderation. Please let us jointly save our beloved Bangladesh from the current crisis.

With best regards,
Emarat Hossain Pannah

Dear Readers,

 
I am not sure if Madrasha Students in Bangladesh now learn subjects other than Arabic. If not, then Bengali, English, Mathematics, and Science should also be taught at Madrasha in Bangladesh so that "Madrasha Graduates" are not dependent on the "Religious Activities" only, rather can compete in the "Open Job Market."

Re: [mukto-mona] VIDEO: GRAB ONTO THE GUN, AND THE SWORD, AND DO YOUR JOB - BOSTON IMAM ...




Origin of the Word 'Mosque'

Question: I was flipping through this book the other day called 'The Complete Idiot's Guide to Understanding Islam' and it is filled with fun facts. One of them concerns the term 'Mosque'. This book pointed out that the term 'mosque' is derived from the Spanish word for 'mosquito'. It was termed as such because during the Crusades, King Ferdinand said they were going to go and swat the Muslims 'like mosquitoes'. Please let me know.
Answer: From my research, I have found that there are four possible origins for the word 'mosque' in the English language. The first possibility is that it derives from the French word 'mosquee' that existed during the period in French linguistic history known as 'Middle French'. The second possibility is that it is a derivative of the Arabic word 'masjid'. The third possibility is that it derives from the Old Italian word 'moschea' and the final possibility is that it comes from the Old Spanish word 'mezquita'. These various words were used to describe the Muslim place of worship in the various languages mentioned.
My research found no indication that mosque was derived from the word 'mosquito'. Regarding the appearance of the term mosque in the English language, scholars suggest it was around 1711 AD. This is far after King Ferdinand and the Crusades. It might be that the term 'mezquita,' used to describe a masjid in old Spanish, came from the word 'mosquito' and then subsequently the term 'mezquita' was used to form the term mosque. However, this would not mean that the term mosque was developed as a result of the story you related.
With the above in mind, I believe it is important to keep a sensible perspective when approaching the origin of words. Words are dynamic and over time often change their meanings from what they originally may have been intended for. It is likely that there are many words in all languages that result from the ignorance or hatred that may have once existed between peoples, races, tribes or religions. We should consider contemporary usage of words and the intention of their current meanings as most important.
Two examples of this might help give a better perspective. The term 'picnic' in the English language came under fire some years back when certain scholars suggested that it was actually a shortened version of 'pick a nigger'. Some decades ago, in the US, there was a racist and vulgar practice known as lynching, where a mob of white people would torture and mutilate a black person (then derogatively called a 'nigger'), often under the false pretext that this person was guilty of a crime. This lynching often involved an entire event where people brought food and family to a park and watched the lynching. Subsequent to the lynching they would take pictures next to the mutilated body! Some scholars contend that the concept of a picnic, and the actual term, resulted from this practice of 'picking a nigger' to lynch and having a small feast at the event. Now despite the possibility of a treacherous background to this word, its usage in common times connotes nothing of the sort.
Similarly, the Arabic term 'ajami has commonly been used, throughout Islamic history, to refer to non-Arabs or those who did not speak Arabic. The meaning of this word is actually in reference to those animals, like goats and cows, that make one syllable sounds. Hence, the term contains cultural superiority and a arrogant insult towards non-Arabic speakers. However, now this term has become synonymous with non-Arabic speaking peoples, forsaking its original background.

Don't count on just one source.  Fact remains that eight centuries of Islamic rule in Spain created such hatred that the congregation of believers in the mosques were compared with mosquitoes by the Spanish people.  Mosque and mosquito are indeed related words.

Mr. Chakrabarty, to 'increase' your faith in Islam and its contribution to world peace, you should read "Holy Warriors: Islam and the Demise of Classical Civilization" by John J. O' Neill.

"religion is now used to induce hatred in the hearts of the parishioner to commit terrorism and violence."- across history it has always been used to induce hatred.  Remember, mosquito is a Spanish word derived from mosque.

Deity can not be destroyed.  Abraham has forbidden the punishment of iconoclasts.

বাংলাদেশে ৪২ বছরে হাজার হাজার মন্দির মূর্তি ভাঙ্গা হয়েছে; কিন্তু একজন অপরাধীও শাস্তি পেয়েছে এমন নজির নেই: শিতাংশু গুহ, ১০ এপ্রিল ২০১৩, ওয়াশিংটন, ডিসি।

In last 42 years in Bangladesh thousands of temples & deities had been destroyed; but there is no instance that one single perpetrator was punished: Sitangshu Guha, 10th April 2013, Washington, D.C.
