RE: [ALOCHONA] FW: BED BUGS AT UNITED NATIONS



Ms Farida Majid is no scholar of Islam. She is just a bigot. Her observations are myopic and clouded by her prejudices against Islamists of Bangladesh and other countries. I have not seen any academic response from her on any matter .She should be ignored.

          I have maintained, after a long agonizing look at the rise of modern Islamic fundamentalism, that Western Islamophobia shares a synergistic relationship with it. I hope you can access the above Op-Ed piece in The Daily Times (Dec. 01, 2004) where I wrote:

<< The Islamists, I can state after prolonged observation, quite relish the presence of outright Islamophobia in the West. They feed off it. Where would they be without it? It is their lifeline — the 2,000-volt electricity-carrying cable that runs their nefarious utilities. Islamists love the racist Islamophobia of neo-con imperialists. Look at how they have become equal partners in Iraq which, despite being under a Stalinist type modern-day dictator, used to be a secular country where women enjoyed reasonable equality in education and healthcare areas. >>
                Many scholars in Europe have picked up my point and quoted my article. [ In Dhaka it was published in The Independent ]

             Now please watch this very disturbing Islamophobic bluster. When the guy says he has "overwhelming evidence" of Islamic countries like Saudi Arabia, Sudan and even Iran brutalising women, mutilating and murdering their fellow citizens, I can think of Pakistani Military Generals, especially Zia-ul-Huq, the recent Islamic extremism in Pakistan,  our own Bangladeshi Golam Azam, Nizami, Quamruzzaman, et al.in 1971, and on the internet, the intrepid misogynist Islamist, S. A. Hannan & his gong. How do I rebut this speaker? Of course I can argue by picking on his faulty history and logic. But the "overwhelming evidences" are hard to deny!

             Please respond. It is important.
