I wonder how of much of either of your (
Kalu &
Akmal) thoughts are reflective of the ground-realities of Bangladesh ! I can't recall a single Bangladeshi outside of this forum on in real life that I met who had good words to say about Pakistan; time & again I've seen the question deflected aside as them being 'mere Awami Leaguers', though I wonder if they are representative of majority Bangladeshis ! The same people came across as Pro-India in an Indo-Pak contest & here we're talking about 'Anti-India Foreign Policies', even 'Defence Pact with Pakistan' in addition to 'Friendship' !
well Armstrong bro , lets sum up things like this:
1)Almost all (I would say 9/10) hindus and other minorities will vote for BAL regardless what BAL does. And I am saying this with due respect to the minorities. They are the core & permanent vote bank of BAL.
2) We have 5-10% suckular (not being rude to rational seculars, as these are brain dead awami suckular dalals we are talking about) dalal munafiqs who will vote for BAL even if they officially sell the country to India.
SO that gives BAL a 20-25 % vote bank regardless of any situation. BNP,most likely the largest party in terms of membership at grass roots level also have 25-30% permanent vote bank. JI has 5-6 % vote bank.
SO that leaves around 50% of the people who are overwhelmingly neutral and their vote shifts to either party alternatively. Majority bangaldeshis are devout muslims and are non-communal unlike awami sukulars. BNP even though the major party with the largest support base currently lacks cohesion and is intact thanks to Begum zia and some senior founding leaders. JI even though small ,have a strong military like chain of command and have strong cohesion. As for BAL, well they too have to some extent lack cohesion but have militant extremist like cadres that can wreck havoc in the politics of BD any day. Both BNP/JI or any other party pales in comparison to the BAL militancy. Militant, irrational & extreme, that’s how U can define BAL in simple terms.
3)
The young gen are mostly not into BAL-BNP politics & are mostly neutral who could care less about 71 & PAK. As KALU Bhai said earlier , 71 is irrelevant to majority bangladeshis. Forget pro-India, the young people don't even give woot to what india farts every now & then. They are overwhelmingly anti-India given India's current policies. U can also add the BNP and JI support base not liking India and also major awami support base who also have apathy to India.
4) SO now U can ask who hates PAK.
Well that 5-10% awami suckular dalals that I talked about, survives on PAK hate. Without 71 awami propaganda BAL has absolutely no carrots to lure tiny winy bit of support.
Also these group is very influential rich class people and have media under their control even during BNP period and so in various other web forums, it may seem like represent bangladeshis but just visit any BD FB pages , U will see that bangladeshis mostly have classic gali for India. Infact PDF bangladeshis here are more polite and reasonable to Indian arrogant rants than avg. Bangladeshis.
5) Lastly why do think Bangladeshis are pro-Indian?
Why should we be pro-anything if U are talking in nationalistic terms. As for forgien policy ,
we never ever had a pro-indian policy apart from 71-75. Pres. Zia’s shaping of BD’s forgien policy which centered around having a balanced relation, a strict business like relation with India was carried on after him by succeeding gov. Even though BALcame to power in the middle(96-2001), they couldn’t change it. But now, yes these BAL dalals managed to get some pro-Indian tilt. But these dalals don’t necessarily represent Bangladeshis.
6) Don’t mind awami dalal, if U ever met any bro. And also don’t mind what these crazy Indians here say, usually their ignorance farts out of their mouth. Infact PDF is a good representation of BD’s popular sentiments. NO one here is what these Indian fools call “Razakar”. Most here are students and may be in their mid-20s and 30s if I am not wrong.
LETS NOT DERAIL THE THREAD BASED ON THIS POST DEAR IGNORANT ARROGANT INDIANS. THIS WAS MEANT FOR ARMSTRONG AND OTHER FELLOW PAK BROTHERS. INDIANS HERE CAN TAKE A CHILL PILL AND IF POSSIBLE CONCENTRATE ON THE TOPIC OF THE THREAD.
