The Great Khan is very upset with Yunus, and apparently trying to get rid of him. The frequent visits to China by BD delegations have irked Khan to no end. The new ambassador designate Brent Christensen’s senate hearing this issue came up significantly. Khan is very worried because Yunus govt has hurriedly decided to buy 20 J-10 from China, and there is talk going on to let Chinese navy have a foothold on BD shores. Brent Christensen expressed his desire to have more engagements directly with the BD army. (Perhaps this may explain why US Pacific Command’s personnel are in BD for joint exercises.)

Inshallah Bangladesh reads like a political thriller with explosive details of Hasina's last hours in Dhaka, a call from New Delhi


https://www.businesstoday.in/india/stor ... 2025-11-05


Image


Weeks after Hasina's fall, Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami's leaders held a meeting with top Qawmi scholars of the country, where participants spoke openly about establishing a country based on Islamic rules under the leadership of Jamaat chief Dr Shafiqur Rahman. At the meeting, Mufti AzharulIslam, a top leader of the Hefazat, said something that would unsettle many: "In my opinion, it will be possible to form an Islamic state through him (Rahman)."

It was exactly what Hasina had claimed - that it wasn't a student uprising, but a regime change operation. Now, she tells the authors: "Don't call it a revolution! It was a terror attack on Bangladesh planned by America and executed by Pakistan."

Amir Khasru: Desperation to hold referendum before election raises public suspicion
BNP Standing Committee member Amir Khasru Mahmud Chowdhury on Thursday said the growing desperation of some political parties to hold a referendum before the national election, bypassing the constitution, has raised public suspicion about their motives.

chanakyaa ji,


one is hearing that, among other things, the effing beedis are also insisting that the tax breaks given to adani by the GoI for setting up industry (thermal power plant) in a backward area be handed over to them

they say that adani got those tax concessions only because of their contract with his company

these jihadis have learned very quickly from the pakis all about how to, not only sink their own ship, and also go down with it

BIG. Ex Bangladesh minister Mohibul Hasan Chowdhury drops a bombshell

~ "USAID & US-backed NGOs like IRI engineered the UNREST that TOPPLED Sheikh Hasina in 2024"

Hasina herself had accused Yunus of ‘selling the nation’. The Bangladesh coup wasn’t organic, but ORCHESTRATED

I think one of the Indian diplomats or generals said that the US can accelerate a trend, and does so; but they cannot create one.

heres one of the critter's take on the illiberal hegemony of india in south asia, basically beseeching the us to come into south asia, stake a presence here to contain china's influence primarily and to secondly safeguard freedom and democracy because smaller countries are being bullied by india's domestic concerns

now, first off, the bd retard does not know that freedom and democracy comes second to what a region can provide in terms of hard geo-fukery, it must be realistically assessed of just how much bd means to great power politics and then appraise the justice or injustice of great power treatment, so lets look at it objectively

1) bd's demographic dividend - there is not much demand in the global market for rickshaw pullers, rpists, or unskilled garmernt workers, so that leaves bd in an undesirable position human capital wise in a global market

2) bd's wealth of natural resources, unless the purported o&g starts flowing is limited to mud cakes and flavoured tears, also not much global demand

3) the unruly and animalistic aspect of a refugee visage is also not to be considered, as india, unlike the eu is not a signatory of the UN refugees declaration, meaning that the bds would be held in temporary camps on the borders if not shot outright and then sent back to their country, there is no refugees welcome mat here, ala MENA and the EU

so all in all, bds are being treated by bigger powers in a rightly just way, their one and only value is to give away one of their islands to the fdf to maintain "peace" in the neighbourhood, this is one area where i think the goi helps them out but only enough so that they will not have to resort to taking this step

but i believe in the bd attitude and short-sightedness, they will do that, but this is a trick to be displayed once and they will want to extract the most out of this: automatic citizenship in the fdf to most bds can be ruled out in exchange of islands, it will not be worth it, but this is the only area where the bd mind would exert itself, once they feel they will be able to get this exchange, they will do that in a heartbeat

here, read it all, i mostly skimmed and can provide you the tl;dr: 😢

Hardly matters in the end. There are always trends of all kinds; some pro-US and some anti-US. Take the case of India itself. There is a trend in WB to make a greater vanga desh combining WB and BD. Similarly, TN wants to do greater Tamil Nadu with TN and N. Srilanka. Kamal Haasan wants a United States of South India, and so on.

It all depends on which trends the US wants to accelerate, and which to decelerate (or leave a trend alone). After all, even the (not all that) "mighty" massa has limitations of time and money.

Thief advisor yo-anus has scheduled referendum and election on the same day. On referendum there are four questions, but all clubbed under one question.

https://www.thedailystar.net/news/bangl ... ot-4034071

"Do you agree with the 'July National Charter (Constitutional Reform) Implementation Order, 2025' and the following reform proposals contained in the July National Charter?"
  • During the election period, the caretaker government, the Election Commission, and other constitutional institutions will be constituted in accordance with the procedures described in the July Charter.
  • The next parliament will be bicameral. An Upper House consisting of 100 members will be formed in proportion to the votes received by the political parties in the national election, and any constitutional amendment will require the approval of the majority of the Upper House members.
  • The political parties winning the next election will be obliged to implement the 30 proposals on which consensus was reached among the political parties in the July National Charter regarding the increase of women's representation in parliament, election of the deputy speaker and parliamentary committee chairmen from the opposition, limiting the term of the prime minister, enhancing the powers of the president, expanding fundamental rights, ensuring judicial independence, and strengthening local government.
  • Other reforms described in the July Charter will be implemented as pledged by the political parties.

"Tata, Bye Bye - Yunus" - this is the hushed message within the corridors of GanaBhavan (Dhaka).

1. An emissary (a minister) of the UK govt quietly made a trip to Dhaka, - apparently to read the riot act to Yunus.
2. Following which BD Security Advisor Khalilur Rahaman made a quiet trip to Delhi to meet (or seek mercy from) Doval. Two days ago incident.
3. In the mean time, coinciding with the UK emissary's visit, BD General Waker went to meet Yunus, and apparently tried to convince him whole night to resign and leave the country. He was given options to choose from which country he wishes to settle. Apparently, Chacha Shyam is very upset with Yunus. But Yunus is dilly dallying.
4. In fact Waker sent someone to BD Prez to pressure Yunus to leave, but again same tantrums.
5. Initially, BNP was ecstatic when Hasina was deposed in August 2024, and it wishes to return to power expecting an election within the following 3 o 6 months. But as the time went by, BNP's hope started dimming as it watched that Jamaat and more extreme groups are consolidating power, and hope for a "free election" drifted away.
6. It has now dawned on Chacha and UK-Chachi that BD is ripe to become another Afghanistan.
7. Several pressure points are being used. One of them is that a lawsuit has been filed against Yunis in London for silently supporting minority genocide in BD over the last one year.
8. In the mean time, Chacha-Chachi mouthpiece Al Jazeera has started talking about human rights violations in BD.
9. BNP has come out openly (showing a tacit support for AL/Hasina) that if and when it comes to power it will nullify all legal cases against AL/Hasina.
10. Hasina has openly challenged Yunus govt's mass killing charges saying that if the BD govt has any proof then it should go to the ICJ, and she is confident that all such charges would be dismissed by the ICJ.

by what authority is the icj empowered enough to sit in judgment on internal matters of any country barring the ones that it appropriates on its own volition

why would any country be stupid enough to drag their internal matter to beseech judgement not of their peers, their countrymen, but of their "betters", the matter if anything ought to be judged by bd's highest court, even bds are not that idiotic
6. It has now dawned on Chacha and UK-Chachi that BD is ripe to become another Afghanistan.
china has access to the arabian sea via gwadar and cpec, so bd has no utility there as well unlike afg where the western powers were trying to thwart ussr's access to the arabian sea

so why would they care if bd burns? they do not have any overt presence or investment or any strategic play in the country's stability, any plans, if they exist would be much more fruitful if the entire region is destabilised and a mass movement occurs in the neighbouring areas, which is ideally what they would want
7. Several pressure points are being used. One of them is that a lawsuit has been filed against Yunis in London for silently supporting minority genocide in BD over the last one year.
so what? again, why does a lawsuit filed against yunus in the uk matter? if they are so concerned, some lackey of yunus should file a lawsuit in the uk courts against sheikh hasina, hel, why not file it in us courts, australian courts, new zealand courts, nigeria courts, malawi courts

i can throw a needle in the least densely populated street of dhaka and it will still hit about 20 people who will want to harm hasina the moment she steps foot in bd again. The bangladeshi people have not, nor will they ever in the future accept their shortcomings, anything and everything is due to conspiracies due to another person; in this case, sheikh hasina is the chosen totem, she is reason for all ills that plague the bd society, all poverty and all malaise. There is only 1 cure for it and that is a symbolic ritual killing of the identified totem to release all the ills in the bd society

if hasina is senile enough to agree with the above tripe, she will be summarily arrested, judged and executed within 1 month of stepping foot in bangladesh, maybe the judgement part will be skipped over, but she will die is the long and short of it

politicians, other celebrities will come out and express horror and sympathy after the deed is done but the motto will be to look forward and to put this gory chapter behind everyone, for a short time there will even be an orgiastic outpouring of pent up energies in the market, celebrations for a new beginning, new clothes for all wives, sweetmeat consumption in copious amounts until reality will exert itself and there would be a need to identify the new totem to pin all the blames

bangladeshis have at best, a tenuous relationship with reality, no reason for us to follow in their fantasies

News Reports: Dhaka issues orders to fire on those who carry out arson or throw crude bombs at people, police, or vehicles, Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) commissioner Sheikh Md Sazzat Ali has said. This seems to be an excuse to target Awami League and Pro-Democracy protestors...

I doubt yunus is going anywhere. All the disagreements portrayed in the media is a giant hoax. He is delivering everything his employer from far far away is asking him to deliver. Hasina and Yunus, both are distractions. Behind the noise, military, judiciary all getting purged to remove anyone who will oppose the grand design. Minorities are tortured. Few millions of printed money to Awami will keep their mouths closed except token drama on street. Long term energy supplies are being secured for BD, and I wonder if Adani was threatened entangled in different cases just to ensure his energy company does not stop electricity to BD. Very ominous for India. I wonder when eye-SIS, eye-SKP, ummah brotherhood types social workers are flooded in BD. They may have already arrived in BD just like how they were brought in See-ree-ya. India may have a short window to fix this (may be it is already late), else BD officially on its way to be east-Bakistan again. 1971 being reversed. Buckle up of India/NE-India and RIP BD!!

heres the video of hasina being sentenced to death

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/DQu5Gwn26Oc

watch, about 20s or so, very illustrative

no surprises on what was to be meted to her, as i said, only her ritual killing can lift the curse of taint on bd's prosperity, or so the bd people posit, her crimes against humanity are a convenient excuse, the prime cause is she is the chosen offering
