Bangladesh Socio-Political Crisis 2024 and onwards

[Afif]

Oh bhai thousands of Iraqi cheered on when the US soldiers pulled down saddam statues.

And this has no relevance to Bangladesh's context.

Yeah, no they didn’t. Ask me how I know….

You don’t have a clue given the quality of your comments.

Bro I have to agree with your sentiments. I do however have concerns about his age. I’ve witnessed the mess in the US.
I pray his senses stay with him for at least the next 2 years

My hope is that he will be the reassuring and well-intentioned figure behind which more active people can rally and do the actual heavy lifting. At least, we can all count on his integrity, his detachment - look at how he has made no reference to the trials he has personally undergone - and his technical skills.

A very rare combination; now, if only the right mix of people gather to support him and to bring a shape and direction to the country's affairs.

I don't know this. @Mr X

But I know the Agartala conspiracy is true. I don't fault Mujeeb for it, I praise him to be a leader with foresight and great vision.

It is sad that people comment about this politician without remembering - perhaps even without knowing - his connections to Maulana Bhashani and to Suhrawardy before that.

@Nilgiri

One of us gave a terse summary on insaniyat. You might have seen it.

There was some doubt about this? "M Saint" has always been playing this game a long time. He is East Pakistani "identifying", big difference with Bangladeshi now.

Ah, yes, that is the identity I was trying to recall for, I think, @Bengal71 .

 

[Joe Shearer]

As far as DT is concerned, age has nothing to do with the mess. He was a mess when he hit puberty, and his brain hasn't grown since then.

Biden seems to be affected by age. But there are plenty of sharp 90 year old too.

My father, at 92 1/2, remained as sharp as a pin, although physically he was close to bed-ridden.

 

[Joe Shearer]

Point No. 6 is concerning a little but as long as they govern for the good of BD then all good.

If India does not attend the swearing in ceremony of caretaker government then this is a bad way for India to start relations with a post-Hasina BD.

@Joe Shearer - please can I have your thoughts on my 2nd sentence as I may have misread this?

No, I agree with you, the basic premise is that India has no foreign policy in effective terms, it is a sycophant with no vision and no horizon obeying the wishes, sometimes articulated, sometimes suspected but not spoken out aloud, of a very inferior character.

For me, it is a given that our national government will continue to mess up their relations with Bangladesh, as they have messed up before, and as they have messed up relations with every single neighbour.

 

[Joe Shearer]

i didn't read it, I wonder if anyone else did. Maybe @Joe Shearer @Bengal71 ?

I haven't read it, but it sounds wild.

@LeonBlack08 @Afif @Joe Shearer

Look at the post above. The video is in Bangla and no caption is available. The video has been available only for an hour.

Yet, this "Turkish ottoman" guy summarizes it and posts it. This fraud is a Bangladeshi, I have been saying for a long time.

Some of us know who he is; @Nilgiri actually recalled his original PDF id, that I was unable to.

The point is that he is a Bangladeshi, and goes through this role play. There are different reactions to it, as the actual Turks are not very pleased about it.

As far as I am concerned, he is welcome to project himself as he wishes, and as long as he keeps to the forum rules, nobody will interfere.

Hasina did not resign: Joy

Says Awami League is willing to work with BNP to restore democracy in Bangladesh

Looks like that Autist mf lost it or this sh*t isn't over yet.

 

[BananaRepublic]

Where is it circulating? Link please.

It is inevitable that RAW will be wiped out.

I have always said that India has zero hold over Bangladesh.

The only kingmaker in Bangladesh is China.

Hasina was overthrown because she lost China.

Anyway, BAL is finished as a political force.

They have lost the under 35s. Which means they have zero chance until the millennials and Gen Z die out.

@UKBengali

India seems to be the biggest loser out of this farrago.

BNP/Jamat shills used to claim Hasina had corrupted all levels of bureaucracy and military and turned them into India shills.

India has lost all influence and hold over Bangladesh.

The young are extremely hostile towards India - especially due to Modi.

Bangladeshis are extremely united and the future looks bright.

Thank you Hasina for all the infrastructure. It has put Bangladesh on a good footing.

I can also see harsh treatment of all the thieves and defaulters.

The youth have tasted power and will not relinquish it.

It is not just the infrastructure but look at how educated the young are now in BD. They seem to be just as knowledgeable and worldly as in even the most developed societies.

I used to think that 2029 would be a good time for Hasina to leave at the end of this term and then democracy may then work in BD, as the country would be developed enough at that time.

If Dr Yunus can reform the political system and all layers of government over the next 2 years before handing over to an elected government, then BD will have a bright future still.

Yup. Not many folks know Suhrawarsys influence on Mujib. Also the role Bhashani played when Mujib was mostly in jail in the 60’s.

That is your political legacy (including Maulana Bhashani's pro-China stand, that so many people are channeling now without the slightest awareness about the Maulana's position on it decades ago).

It is difficult to understand why people ignore it; perhaps because they are simply not aware of it. He was born in 1920, and therefore lived through some of the most stirring moments of political developments in Bengal when he was a teen-aged activist, an aggressive Muslim League leader under Suhrawardy.
