After watching Zaid Hamid's video, it seemed he has simplified the causes of separation of east wing of Pakistan to only one point of Indian conspiracy as if there cannot be anything else. His one-point allegation is baseless. It was not India, but it was west Pakistan itself that was responsible for this.
Pakistan people should read other materials and should not concentrate war only within the time frame of 1971. 1971 was a war that was caused by the continuous deprivation of the eastern wing people that they received from the central govt of Pakistan since its creation. Even, AL was not handed over power in 1971 although this party won 162 out of 300 national assembly seats.
Yahya Khan failed to honour his pledge to convene the national assembly in Dhaka on 25th March, 1971. Instead, he chose to teach a lesson to the demanding and hungry Bangalis of east Pakistan by ordering PA troops to unleash a reign of terror, torture and killing.
Zaid Hamid's conspirator, Sk. Mujib, allowed himself to be arrested by the army on 25th March. He was put in a jail, and Yahya never met him at least once in order to initiate a political dialogue and a peaceful settlements of the issues.
Now, Pakistanis are forced-fed into believing it was Sk. Mujib who betrayed the country, and Yahya and Bhutto were the heros. Did not Bhutto warn all the MPs of west Pakistan someday before 25th March, "Jo Log Dhaka Jaeyega, hum unka Paeyed tod Deyenge?"
It was to stop Parliament session there, so that somehow he would be given power when water is more troubled. What was the problem with convening the 1st Parliamentary Session in Dhaka? Was it possible for Sk. Mujib to get a Provincial autonomy just with a simple majority in the National assembly? It takes 2/3rd majority to make even any minor changes to the Constitution.
Yahya took all the unlawful steps on the advice of Z. A Bhutto and was expecting a joint China-US intervention if India interfered. But, the intervention did not materialize. China had even offered to mobilize its troops along the Russian border if USA was willing to intervene. But, USA did not bite the bid because of public opinion in the USA, and to avoid a prospect of a 3rd World War for a tiny east Pakistan.
Now, Zaid Hamid discovers that Yahya and Bhutto were the patriots, who tried to save the country. It was just the opposite. It was Sk. Mujib who decided to go to west Pakistani Jail instead of leading a seccession war. And the two drunkard politcians did everything possible to segregate the country. Yahya and Bhutto should be declared the JOINT FATHERS OF NATION OF BANGLADESH for their roles in 1971.
