Mistakes were made by both sides political mistakes aside. Mujeeb could have been writing but his 5 points were enough to strengthen this divide foundation of which was laid in Agartala conspericy.
I agree partially, there should have been 5 points instead of 6. Because different central bank and currency is terrible idea.
But indeed sheikh mujeeb had nothing to do with agartala conspiracy .other were the villain;enemies were hidding in awami league,and mujeeb was a type of hostage to them.
As for military I think that hard line bangali are more to be blamed.
agree
There minds were poisoned by Mujeeb ur Rahman to the extend that they lifted armed against their own Army.
Totally disagree .Actually sheikh mujeeb did not declare independence nor he poisoned the mind of bengali.almost all bengalis were faithful to pakistan. And sheikh never provoked against pakistan, if he did why pakistan did not arrest or shoot him? He was hostage to the traitors of his own party( was pakistan also not a hostage to india and as a result her East wing has been cut?)
and willingly surrender to army so that army can take care of the traitors and R&AW agents.
Btw, pakistan is just not a land of west pakistan (currently pakistan), but both side were pakistan and if a Qaed e azam could manage a corridor to connect both pakistan then pakistan would never break.
But as i said pakistan is an identity not only one ot two piece of land. If there were south and north pakistan and all were seperated and renamed still the two nation theory never dies.
Only problem was communication .3200 miles (via colombo) distance is not a game to comunicate between two wings(and if sri lanka did not aid pakistan and would not open her port to pakistan, pakistan would have lost the war long before 16 december because of insufficient manpower and logistics in East pakistan). And that time there was no internet. And if technology was far more advanced, pakistan would not break even both wing share no land border.
Keep in mind that pakistani army did not lose until india directly attack East pakistan.
Mukti bahini ( some are paid agents of india and some are brain washed fools)
Faild to capture any single district or sub district of East pakistan. Why? Because East pakistani bengalis prevented them from the traitors.
And then when problem was about to solve then india directly attack East pakistan ( how many time Soviet would use veto?),set naval blockade and pakistan failed to break the blockade and bengalis lost their homeland pakistan because of the foolish act of yahyah. He should have understand the war plan of india and should send more army to fortify East pakistan but he didn't. East pakistan was captured by india, and when mujeeb returns he forced indian army to withdraw.
And the name already changed to bangladesh and mujeeb was unable to protest india,
as pakistan lost 1971 war so if mujib would go against india, india could hostile takeover east pakistan by propogating another theory
Thanks to allah and thanks to mujeeb that for his eye washing co operation,
we didn't have to accept the fate of Hyderabad.
Finally bangladesh is East pakistan (by two nation feelings) and it will always remain east pakistan ( because two nation theory was for pakistan a muslim homeland) just name is changed by india.and india can't rule the mind of our peoples.
Yes you can call it
independent/separated East pakistan i will not disagree.
Finally Jay bangla & Pakistan zindabad or jiye pakistan ( this part is removed) slogan that exactly mujeeb said in 7 march Jay bangla for bengali and Pakistan zindabad for
united pakistan.
On the other hand the sole mistake of military crack down was to prevent splitting of Pakistan.
Again my friend it was never ever a mistake. Pakistan should do this long before 1971 and with great force.
She failed to win the mental war against india and then india forcefully taken our identity as pakistani.
Well but india can never rule our mind never.
As hindus and Muslims can never ever be the same nation,but always two nation.
