I don't think hatred to India is stemmed from religion. Today's India is the meeting place for at least 3 great religions : Islam, Hinduism and Buddhism. Most Islamic schools in Bangladesh and Pakistan follow the traditions of Deoband, India. For India, the best policy is so to stay secular...

We have to consider (1) What Islam stipulates (2) What are the ground realities in both countries after all that happened. ISLAM will not simplify the case just by saying both stained their hands with blood so both are even, and you two shake hands again. Islam will look into all the...

The historical relationship between a German and a Jew is not equitable with that between a Pakistani and Bangladeshi. Forefathers of both laters (including Sk. Mujib and Bhutto) strived together to establish Pakistan, and fought the war of 1965. In many graves around Lahore and Sialkot are...

Why are you mixing Judicial System with this Civil forum---a most respected one to exchange views to understand the underlying truth without becoming cynical ? I never mentioned to change the Judicial system ever. In a forum, people try to evaluate a statement through other available means...

Where is the EVIDENCE practice now ? Did you mention any evidence on your statement to Leonblack ?

You reply proves that you use "EVIDENCE" to block a mutually respectful dialogue and process of understanding through any resepected forum like this. What you replied is the Standard Operating Procedure for those who first in defence will ask for EVIDENCE. Knowing fully well that there will...

Sitiuations in all the then-provinces were not equitable. Particularly, if I am to remind, Sk. Mujib and his party were denied the rightful premiership after all years of disparity. Seperation was then the only recourse as West Pak people---as you claim---had been unaware of their own rights...

Many Indian friends are asking for (and mostly they all the time) EVIDENCE as if we are in a court. Here, is it done to block the truth stand ? As regards to Leon's post in connection to who is behind BDR carnage, a Bangladeshi will not ask for evidence who happened to have a friend or...

You are even not asked to think so. You have over 100 reasons not to want so---the smallest is you never want Pak & Bangla people come closer to each other. Most or all Bangladeshis think that India (perhaps later advised by Israel) noted the rift the pre-1971 disparity had been causing, and...

The hatred and suspicion erupt and solidify from a single set of questions---Why the people of West pakistan did not raise any protest to atrocity excess during '71? Were all of them had been so oblivious of the disparity and later what had been happening to 'so-called' brothers ? Why still many...

A summary of the national probe report on the BDR mutiny The Daily Star Report May 29, 2009 Friday Formation of the enquiry committee and its scope 1. The enquiry committee formed with former secretary Anis-uz-Zaman as its chairman and comprising of 12 members started its work with the...

What sustained this thread so long in this respected and well-moderated forum---despite several cries from members [salman nedian: ‘Bas kar do Bas’ ; Hasnain2009: Stop yaar!!]---is yet to be understood. Unknown to me the value this thread offers besides (1) spreading further...

Your intent of solidifying Ummah---first in this sub-con, and as model to the globe---is highly appreciable. But, we two can not get it done. Since it is a “we need each other” issue, we should check the general attitudes of people concerned. This respectable forum provides with enough...

Your point and approach, Al-Zakir, are so honest and pure, neither me nor any muslim can say "NO". This has to be replied with a big "YES". However, if you really mean to devise a practical way to achieve the goal, we require to define it with cooler head. You know that Bangladesh people will...

Ah! I got your point. The confusion always stem from the concept of 'Islamic State' which is a recently fabricated term introduced by politicians to use Islam for their own interest in politics. If Islam is not in practice by majority, but majority is Muslim then it is a state run by...

No, Jako. In case of Bangladesh, the Islamic fabric is a must because of (1) Overwhelming Islamic majority (2) That too was ignited further because we fought a truly bloody war with Pakistan who too claims Islamic. Common Bangladeshis tend to think our fight was truly Islamic against...

Very wrong to say so. 1. Biharis were the last persons to think that Pakistan may disintegrate as they left everything in India, and no other place to go. So they made excesses thinking that Pak Army will protect them. In pre-25th days, there were sporadic small scale clashes between Bengalis...

Exactly this arrogant attitude of 'Islam-in-mouth' and not-in-practice---as you showed in your post---led Bangldeshis to realize how much Islam is underlying in Pakistan dream. The rest were unavoidable.

Those nations--if at all any--lacked severely in self-respect. Pak Army's carnage on human life & dignity in 1971 was the last solid proof that Pakistani politicians & Army have no respect in Islam--at least on issues of those days. So, our boys decided to go for independence. Islam...
