Response to commenter Mr. Bebek Das

Reader comment on item: Militant Islam's New Strongholds

Submitted by Sukanta Nag (United States), Feb 9, 2005 at 14:34

If you think Bangladeshis are so inconsiderate against the minorities you are very wrong. Reading your article it seems like you are going on a Islamic bashing rampage. If we look in our neighboring country we'll see lot of riots involving killing of muslims. In Bangladesh which is a very rare incident.

Hindus celebrate their religious festivals and the Bangadesh National TV also air special programs honoring their religious belief.
About the madrasas have you, Mr. Das, been to one by any chance? I think you did not. At least that's what your writing reflects. These are orphanages. They teaches Quran primarily and also other branches. There is nothing wrong with that.

It is very hard for me sometimes to grasp that why all hindus, without any hestitation, love to bash, talk bad about their own country so shamelessly, whenever they get a chance.

I think the assassination of Sheik Mujibur Rahman did a lot good to Bangladesh, otherwise today we had to live under the rule of India.
