You made a good point. However in the long run, without inconveniencing our country, people like me and the hundreds of thousands in Shahbagh square want an end to Jamat for once and for all. On a personal level I believe the best thing to do is to systematically undermine the Jamati ideology...

This is from a webpage which contains western concerns over the impartiality of the war crimes trial, I say this so you can understand the wider context of the passage. Crimes of War – The International Crimes Tribunal in Bangladesh – Will Justice Prevail? @iajdani is probably...

It's actually 4.6% of votes. Hopefully in the next elections it will be even less. Anyway 95.4% of the Bangladeshi electorate are not Jamatis. :lol: Jamatis are a tiny minority in Bangladesh and Hindus alone are 9% :lol: You have already subtly threatened Bangladesh with civil war. It is...

The protest organizers are clearly trying to make this a non-political event and one of the Awami leaders was not allowed to give a speech and politicize the event. All political posters promoting any political party has been banned. The article below in Bangla is quite interesting...
