What Bangladesh would gain from normalizing relations with Israel?

during Zia's rule hundreds and thousands of Bangladeshi men fought with the Palestinians and had their own regiment.
How did it benefit us?

DHAKA, Bangladesh

A top Bangladeshi official said on Friday that his nation has long favored an independent Palestine and stood against the aggression of Zionist Israel.

“It is the moral responsibility of the civilized world to free al-Aqsa Mosque from the illegal occupation of Israel,” AKM Mozammel Haque, Bangladesh’s freedom fighters affairs minister, told a seminar on the occasion of Al-Quds (Jerusalem) Day in the capital Dhaka.

Muslims worldwide mark the last Friday of the holy month of Ramadan as Al-Quds Day to support the legitimate rights of the Muslim people of Palestine and condemn Israeli aggression.

Haq added that the sort of killing and human rights violations perpetrated by Israeli occupation forces in Palestine are absolutely “haram” or forbidden in every religion.

“They are carrying out massacres in hospitals, schools, and even charitable institutions,” he said, adding that every moral being worldwide should stand against this tyranny.

Criticizing growing ties between Saudi Arabia and Israel, Haq said that it seems the entire Muslim world is pained by the Israeli aggression in Palestine except for the Saudi government.



‘Muslim unity needed’

Palestinian Ambassador in Bangladesh Yousef S Y Ramadan said that no deal will be accepted without declaring Jerusalem Palestine’s capital.

"We will never give up our struggle against Israeli occupation, no matter whatever blood we have to shed, how many people have to sacrifice their lives," Ramadan said, adding that Palestinians must protect their land and free Al-Aqsa, the third-holiest site in Islam.

“Al-Aqsa was illegally occupied at least 17 times by different nations but ultimately it was returned to its original people, the Palestinians. Inshallah we will free it within a short time,” he said.

Iran’s Ambassador in Dhaka Mohammad Reza Nafar urged Muslim people to stand united against Israeli killings and aggression in Palestine.

“In the last few decades they have killed thousands of Palestinians and inhuman practices are continuing,” he added.

Borhan Uddin, a Mideast analyst, urged Muslims to boycott all Israeli products, including soft drinks.

“No one can force us to use Israeli products. We are using their products and thus enriching the Israeli economy. They produce destructive bombs with that money and kill Muslims in Palestine,” he said.

He added that mere condemnations in seminars or symposiums does nothing against Israel, but a united Muslim boycott of Israeli products could play a meaningful role in stopping the aggression.

“It’s time to forget the differences between Shia and Sunni. The issue is being kept alive in Western media just to create division among Muslims. It’s time for unity for the greater interest of the Muslim Ummah,” or community, he said.

Speakers also urged Saudi Arabia to play its due role for Palestine and against Israeli occupation, saying a joint initiative by Turkey, Iran, and Saudi Arabia would be powerful.

Noted thinkers, professors, journalists, and Islamic scholars spoke at the seminar, chaired by Shah Kawther Mustafa Abululae of Dhaka University.

Bengalis will do well with their cheapskate Israeli counterparts as the Kurdish, Indian and Egyptians do. Lol.

Is the Al-Aqsa Mosque the only important thing in this whole issue ? What about the humans in the Palestinian Territory, both Muslim and Christian ? The PLO would have had Christian members too.

Bangladesh is not a part of the ME. We do not have to follow the bad examples of a few spineless Arab countries and entities.

BD wants a just solution of the Palestinian issue. We are psychologically attached to it. We still fondly remember the time when Yasser Arafat would visit Dhaka time to time at every opportunity. Palestine leadership has changed, but not our mind.

You can expect a thousand volunteer from here in a war against Israel without even the govt support.

Bangladesh will not recognise the zionist entity....it will follow Saudi Arabias lead on this.
Complete non issue

Yes sir zionist stooge. You are a traitor to the nation for even entertaining the prospect of normalizing ties with a murderous illegitimate regime such as the Zionist Regime. You are the lousiest member on the BD thread. For being a Traitor as you are, Take That Picture of Michael Corleone off of there and put Fredo on it.

You act all grumpy and wise but you and your opinions are trash at the end of the day arent they. BD gains wat from this moronic Murderous regime? The one regime that never ever since its coming into being has conducted itself according to international standards. Theres a reason why, Bangladeshi's can travel anywhere and can deal with every nation other than that Bastard Nation. So stop preaching treason in here.

Mr. Lousy Suck Up. Its treason. Plain and simple. I want the boys in here to take a hard look at this imposter. This Pretender is Fredo Corleone, not Michael.

Dude Chill.

Let's not get into name calling just because he has an opinion.

If you don't like his opinion, argue logically.

No need for name calling please....

Our state does not nd will not recognise the murderous illegitimate regime of Zion. He's opinon is borderline treason. He states that he doesnt care about Palestinians' just birth right, to say that kinda stuff is utterly outrageous. Our leaders and state has always stood up for the palestinians whose rights have been taken from them . If anybody passes on an anti BD agenda as their opinion, i will speak up.

I didn't have issue with you expressing your strong opinion which you can have.

But name calling is NOT cool. It is actually against forum rules.

Don't let your emotions get the better of your composure.

We don't want the thread to turn into a mudslinging troll fight - that is all.

Don’t let your monopausal hormones overpower your emotions, look into existing relations between Israel and Bangladesh. Bd sells furnitures, medicines and many other stuff to Israel, supporting their industry which in turn supports ours. There’s no point in this gorilla chest thumping for Muslim umma when umma itself sold out. So calm down and discuss logically
 
.
Egypt, Jordan, Turkey, Azerbaijan and UAE recognize Israel. Soon Saudi Arabia will join the list.

Arab states are throwing in the towel and for good reasons.

163 of the 193 UN member states recognize Israel.

US decided to move its embassy to Jerusalem. Guatemala, Czech Republic and Paraguay followed suit. Malawi and Serbia have committed to opening embassies in Jerusalem.

World has moved on and we are stuck in the past.

Umma itself sold out cuz of idiots and spineless people such as you know who (okay I won’t name call). Not just the umma but the BD nation as well. I will never ever sacrifice my values and morals for any cost. What is defeat itself? Primal Defeat is giving up on right and wrong thinking weather the end is profitable. You mention the ummah, but there are nations who have put up stiff resistance to the zionist aggression.

Nations who have been isolated from the world by the Global arrogance, Nations whose brave sons have sacrificed their precious lives so that families and children of the oppressed and downtrodden people of the middle east may somewhat live a reasonably prosperous life. Men whose morals and sense of humanity didnt allow them sit and watch idly while the zionists sinister plans took hold across the world. Men very much unike you.

Nations put under brutal inhuman sanctions refused to bow down to the bullying powers. They cud have put forward the same excuse as you. But they dont suffer from stockholm syndrome thankfully. God has given them the power to value the principles of justice unlike some men. So please dont mention the ummah.

Existing relationship between Israel and Bnagladesh ? What relationship, we are not allowed by law to conduct businesses with any company originating from Israel, thats the only background check the ministries do before signing contracts with foreign companies. I know the government bodies do not do business with Israel , dont know if private companies are directly allowed to do so.

This whole ideology of sacrificing the principles of justice for profitability is itself SHAMEFUL AND DISGUSTING. There is no honor in such ways of thinking. These kinda mindset are Rotten and Despicable. Its a testament of the individuals STOCKHOLM SYNDROME. But thankfully there are Real Men out there.

After decades of Israel-bashing, which actually is a regular habit and tendency of terror-patron Iran, a number of moderate Muslim nations now coming to their sense? Recently, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman has signaled of normalizing relations with the Jewish State and he even went further saying,

Lol.. Did he just mention Saudi Arabia as a moderate Muslim nation ??? :sarcastic:

That’s the point you let your ignorance and over pretentiousness cloud your logical thinking. Bd and Israel already conduct trade worth millions... and as for your values on civility and morality... that you’ve shown on the post you got called out on by @Bilal9. Do yourself a favor and cut some slack, you’re believer of ideals that simply do not exist, the world is not perfect and nor are you, so stop pretending
