The United States Embassy in Dhaka will fly its flag at half-staff on Saturday in solidarity with Bangladesh's one-day state mourning to commemorate the deaths of Palestinians in Israel attacks.

Ambassador Peter Haas has ordered the US Embassy flag to be flown at half-staff on the day, the embassy said in a press statement on Friday (20 October).

The United States mourns every innocent life lost, it stated.

Quoting US Secretary of State Blinken, the press statement further said, "We mourn civilians of every faith and every nationality who have been killed in the conflict."

Earlier on Thursday, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina announced a one-day state mourning for the Palestinian victims in the Hamas-Israel war on Saturday.

She said the national flag will be kept at half-mast in all institutions on that day.

The premier also called for prayers after Jummah in every mosque in the country for the people of Palestine.

"Not only in the mosques, those of other religions will also pray for the oppressed people of Palestine in their temples and churches so that they can live with rights in their own country," she said.

Hasina has forced bloody U.S. to show respect to the Palestinian dead!!

Bloody Arabs can learn a lot from Bongo Bandhobi.

Hasina desperately trying to get sympathy for bd moron population

Every gesture to care for human life is appreciated and should be.
Long live BD.

The question here is how sympathetic the US population and their govt are. Ambassador Hass is showing this sympathy in Dhaka on behalf of the US to win public support for his government's effort to hold a free election in BD.

America has little sympathy for the Palestinians. But, saying so in Dhaka will derail its efforts to bring back democracy. Hasina gets stronger if America does the opposite.

This will be relayed all over the world.

Hasina has got Biden by the balls.

No other Muslim leader has cowered US over Israel.

Bravo Hasina!!

She still needs guts to do this.

America’s typical demonising tactics doesn’t work on Hasina.

1. Islamophobia doesn’t work given Hasina’s staunch Sufi credentials and track record of cold blooded murder of Jamatis.

2. Honey trap - given she is a women obsessed with avenging her father.

3. Warmongering - not working either given how she refuses to start wars.

America is fucked when it comes to dealing with Hasina

Will the US embassy in Islamabad and Jedda do the same??

Knowing Hasina - she will now claim US wants her out because she stood up for Palestinians

You are as usual completely wrong. Do you think America doing this in Dhaka to appease your great leader Hasina? No, it is doing so to please Mulla voters who are against Hasina but loves Palestinians to its core.

No Joy Bangladesh this time. But, you will make a great intellectual supporter of Hasina. Note how you distort every situation!! Bravo!!

Please don't tell Arabs to learn anything from your Bongo Bandhobi. Otherwise, the Arabs will end up learning siphoning off tens of billions of dollars from their respective countries.

Flying a flag at half mast doesn't cost anything.

She is desperate to stay In power. Trying to play with people’s emotions instead fair elections. If USA was not fucking with her she won’t play this game.

Flying a flag at half mast doesn't cost anything.

She should lower flag of bd when Bangladeshi get killed by her masters in Delhi instead of cry for Palestine.

Nah, no guts required. In BD nobody gives a fck about American or western dictation on whether we would show sympathy for Muslims or Palestinians. We have done so for decades regardless of which party is in power and will do so in future. Not showing solidarity with Palestine actually requires guts, we have no politician in BD who had that gut.

Ammerica/Ambassador Haas to bring back democracy in BD?

That's real fishy scenario.
