Genocide on Hindus & Buddhists in the Chittagong hills

…apart from killings of 10 poor Chakmas, at least 200 houses in 11 Chakma villages were burnt to ashes by marauding goons on the night of February 19. At one point during the clash, the military personnel started firing indiscriminately on fleeing Chakma villagers only to help encourage attacking Muslim settlers. Chittagong is Bangladesh’s only district having a significant Buddhist population. Army was called in after a pagoda and an office of a UN-funded project were set on fire. A statue of Lord Buddha installed at the Banani Buddhist Monastery was damaged and another statue was looted.

There have been many attacks on Buddhist and Hindu villages since 1997 in Bangladesh which have now become occupied by Muslim villagers and landowners.  From Unrepresented Nations & Peoples

Pakistan: Muslims murder Christian with axe after he refuses to convert to Islam

Now wait a minute. Isn’t there “no compulsion in religion” (Qur’an 2:256)? Sure. But as far as the Muslim murderers of Rasheed Masih and others like them are concerned, they are merely helping him along to make his free decision to convert to Islam. In general, a system that mandates the institutionalized discrimination of dhimmitude for those who remain non-Muslim within the Islamic state has a broad and expansive idea of what constitutes “no compulsion.”

Iran’s opposition leader says mullahs are misunderstanders of Islam

To be precise, at least according to this AP report, he said that “a dictatorial cult is ruling Iran in the name of Islam.” So presumably he thinks that Islam actually teaches something other than what the mullahs represent and teach. It would be interesting if he were to spell this out, since everywhere in the world where we have seen Islamic Republics and other self-styled Islamic polities, they don’t differ significantly from what we see in Iran.

Odd, isn’t? The Western media avoids mentioning anything about the fact that Aafia Siddiqui is a Muslim or was influenced by Islamic teachings, as if it were completely irrelevant to her violent actions. Yet at the same time, for the Taliban that’s the onlything that matters about her.

About 2,000 Islamists protesting against Siddiqui’s conviction chanted slogans against the United States and support for Afghan Taliban leader Mullah Mohammad Omar in the southwestern city of Quetta. Aafia Siddiqui, 37, was convicted in a New York court on Wednesday for grabbing a U.S. officer’s rifle while she was being questioned in 2008 in Afghanistan and firing at FBI agents and military personnel as she was wrestled to the ground. Pakistan will take all steps necessary to bring home a Pakistani woman convicted in a U.S. court for shooting at her U.S. interrogators in Afghanistan, a government spokesman said on Thursday.

Misunderstanders of Islam Destroy Mosque After Being Criticized by the Imam

Following are excerpts from a TV report on a mosque and school in Pakistan, which was destroyed by the Taliban after its imam criticized the Taliban’s conduct. The report aired on Al-Aan TV on January 20, 2010.

They are doing this only because we are reporting it to give Islam a bad name….

MEMRI/ Video here

Anchor: Taliban militants destroyed a mosque and a school in the Charbagh region, in the northeastern part of Swat Valley, after the imam of the mosque criticized the ways of the Taliban. Many students left the school out of fear for their lives, and those who stayed found themselves facing harsh conditions, due to what befell the school. Let’s watch the following report.

Reporter: This is what is left of the Dar Al-‘Ulum school and its mosque in Charbagh, after Taliban militants turned it to rubble, in which the students are now digging in search of hope to renew their studies.

Student: There were hundreds of students studying here. The Taliban fighters came and destroyed the school and the mosque. They killed the imam, Sheik Mas’oud Ahmad. They destroyed the furniture, the books, and everything. Most of the students have not yet returned to their studies, out of fear.

Reporter: The school bell is the only thing felt for this tent, which functions as a classroom. The tent does not protect the students from the notorious cold of the region, and they do not have enough books – despite the small number of students.

Student: We got this tent from the government in order to set up our school in it. It can only hold one class. It lacks furniture, and we are afraid that when it rains, the books will be ruined.

The Taliban have lost the people’s support because they destroy mosques and intimidate and kill the people.

Reporter: The school principal wonders how they can possibly destroy a mosque and a school in the name of Islam.

School principal: Islam does not permit the killing of Muslims, or the destruction of mosques and schools for any reason. If the Taliban fight for the sake of Islam and the Muslims, who do they destroy a religious school?

Reporter: The students have to sit out in the open, and use pieces of the ruined furniture to conduct lessons. The principal complains about the lack of resources, and about the insufficient government support for his school, which lacks what it takes to survive.

After the Taliban destroyed the Dar Al-‘Ulum mosque and school, the teachers and students have been reduced to these humble settings.

FIVE UK-bound passengers were arrested at Islamabad airport, Pakistan, today after clearing immigration controls with fake British passports, immigration sources told Sky News.


Earlier reports said the men, who were booked on a flight to Manchester, northern England, had allegedly tried to hand over their boarding passes to five other men,  a Sky News report reveals.

The five other men, who were heading to Dubai, were being questioned by Pakistani police, the source said.

A NYT Reporter Gets a Dose of Reality

Freed Reporter Smashes U.S. Policy Myths About Afghanistan, Pakistan, Taliban

By Barry Rubin/The Rubin Report

talibanFanatical frenzy, worse than hydrophobia in a dog….

When reality breaks into the mainstream media it can be of earthquake intensity. Such is the New York Times article by David Rohde, a journalist held prisoner by the Taliban for over seven months and finally released.

Paki & Talib News updates:

Rohde’s conclusions aren’t of much comfort for the Obama Administration, or for those who are naive about radical Islamists, or indeed for his fellow journalists. But his honest thinking out loud should affect their writings and policies.

During his captivity, Rohde writes:

“I came to a simple realization. After seven years of reporting in the region, I did not fully understand how extreme many of the Taliban had become. Before the kidnapping, I viewed the
organization as a form of `Al Qaeda lite,’ a religiously motivated movement primarily focused on controlling Afghanistan.”

But he came to understand from close observation as a prisoner:

“I learned that the goal of the hard-line Taliban was far more ambitious….They wanted to create a fundamentalist Islamic emirate with Al-Qaeda that spanned the Muslim world.”

Not that other reporters learned anything from his experience:

French troops were killed after Italy hushed up ‘bribes’ to Taleban

When ten French soldiers were killed last year in an ambush by Afghan insurgents in what had seemed a relatively peaceful area, the French public were horrified.

Their revulsion increased with the news that many of the dead soldiers had been mutilated — and with the publication of photographs showing the militants triumphantly sporting their victims’ flak jackets and weapons. The French had been in charge of the Sarobi area, east of Kabul, for only a month, taking over from the Italians; it was one of the biggest single losses of life by Nato forces in Afghanistan.
