^^ OK. Didn't realize he is a typical Dhimmi, a coward who converted for his own safety rather than pushing back the oppressors to defend his people. Many Kashmiri Pandits are like that too. By not changing his name, he is running a false flag operation.

This is jarring to note that the French are tied to the hip with Jihadis. What Tulsi Gabbard said is spot on and I am glad the US is highlighting the plight of Hindus in BD nation.

Look at the other things the Embassy of France in Bangladesh retweeted. They will condemn everything except violence against non-Muslim minorities. The North Atlantic Leftists can never, never condemn Islamic extremism unless it happens in their own country, and likely not even then.

drnayar ji,


the frenchies are past masters at the delicate art of the regime change ........ and like the britshits, the frogs too have a long history of choosing, and again re choosing heads of state, to suit their moods and conveniences

Their artistic light was often hidden under a "boisseau" because they predominantly operated in africa, far away from the usual haunts where the sold out Indian presstitutes usually cast their highly selective nets, and the frogs' exertions in these activities were often brutal in the ways that the regime changes usually played out

No wonder Gerogia Meloni of italy recently told them off publicly for all their shady shenanigans in africa

some of the things that the frogs have got up to in these places will stand your hair on end

Nayar saab, one theory I have, and it can be controversial, is that the papal establishment and islamic establishment are based on the single foundation of "dubious origin" nature. Constantinople was the first entry point (via Helen, the mother of Emperor Constantine the Great) of such dubious construction of the "Jesus Christ" faction in Italian monarchy and quickly adopted by the Emperor and his factions. BTW the Italian/Roman empire had elements of Hindu faith and Greek faith. There is no clearcut evidence of a physical "Jesus Christ" and in fact the Nicean council talks only about a spiritual "Jesus Christ". Islamic origins with "Mohammad" is along similar lines. There are so many conflicting reports of each one of them with no actual evidence that it makes you wonder of the nature of their creation. Much of the propping up of these two religions in the world was done by the then deep state actors embedded in monarchies worldwide. It continues to this day.

You are right drnayar saar.

youanus is seeking legitimacy by slyly trying to engineer a meeting with Modi ji, and if said meeting takes place, he will then claim to be the beedi equivalent of Modi ji, i.e. head of the beedi government.

Has any country even recognized this illegitimate beedi govt yet .....

but we should certainly expect to see some dramatics by the beedi gang at the BIMSTEC meeting, maybe even going to the extent of ambushing Modi ji in some corridor where presstitutes are strategically present to record the "meeting" for beedi tee vee

youanus is already skating on thin ice

Earlier, one of the students' parties tried to get the Bangladesh Army chief involved in controversy.
https://en.prothomalo.com/bangladesh/po ... gtou18sn87
The Army Headquarters has reacted to the Facebook post of Hasnat Abdullah, principal coordinator of National Citizen Party (NCP), regarding pressure from the army to form a “refined Awami League”.

Sweden-based Netra News on Saturday published a report on the reactions. It said the post of Hasnat Abdullah is nothing but an “extremely laughable and an immature array of stories”.
Also see:
https://en.prothomalo.com/opinion/op-ed/o8tlqr2qdv
A group that has long sought to create public opinion against the army chief and remove him from his post began using these two recent events against the army chief. Not only that, this time, they also called on the public to take to the streets against the army chief.

https://www.thedailystar.net/news/bangl ... ib-3858126

An assistant commissioner of Sarail upazila has been relieved of her duties after a Facebook post from her account saying that Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was the one who declared Bangladesh's independence.

Sirajum Munira Kaysan, Assistant Commissioner (Land) of Sarail upazila administration, wrote the post today, referring to Sheikh Mujibur Rahman as "Bangabandhu."

Besides, announcements related to economy, investment and economic zones are likely to be made, said Foreign Secretary Jashim Uddin.

The Foreign Secretary said China is Bangladesh's best friend, closest neighbour, strategic partner and one of the largest commercial and development partners.
Soon, that friendship will be deeper than the Bay of Bengal and other such Paki rhetoric.

A_Gupta ji,


The cheeni are now well on their way to being fully entrenched in beediland, thanks to youanus.

Now, the st martins island plan has been reappropriated by the cheen

These clowns don't seem to have learned either from the paki, lankan or even the maldives fiascos

The cheen will try to suck in as much Indian money and resources as they can to lighten their own load and burden.

They have already done this in maldives, lanka, and nepal, where India's role has been reduced to "housekeeping and facilities" management.

Without India's resources, the pakis have become अत्यंत दरिद्र and the cheen will never help their "victims" out

By now, India should have wised up and similarly shut out the greedy beedis.

Let cheen "support" them, as they have habitually "supported" the rest of their doomed colonies

A_Gupta ji,


That is why India is pushing vigorously for the border fencing completion

The major hurdle is that land is not being given by the bengal govt to build the fence and her jihadi party workers actively and physically obstruct the fence building work using religious slogans and intimidation.

This is the HM's statement in parliament

The major problem is from within, the cheeni comes later

But now, the beedi border guards, under one pretext or the other, will once again start their objections to India completing the fencing, like they have been doing for so many years.

The beedis and mumtaz begum anyway don't want the fence built, but come what may, AS will build it

Recall Margaret Bourke's Time interview of Jinnah.
Jinnah's vision for Pak was using Pak's geo-strategic location to play the big powers against each other.
He succeeded . For 4-5 decades.

Fast forward to today and Bangladesh.
Yunus is doing *EXACTLY* the same thing in video below.
https://x.com/AbhishBanerj/status/1906572971881464160


The problems: It is Yunus who is in China selling the story to them (not the other way around) . And there is a fair level of media exposure attached to it.
The latter is messaging to India . The former is fishy since the Chinese arent know to show their intentions.
And Yunus is nowhere in control of BD as Jinnah was during Pak's early honeymoon period.
In fact, the desperation is showing. See the video. He mentions India's seven states as "land locked". The underlying message Yunus is pushing for
- I know I am not in control
- But CHinese security presence in BD has multiple benefits for China , geographically and economically.
- I need your help desperately

China knows that RoI in Pak wasnt what they expected. Gwadar access and control now seems precarious as BLA take control. The risk of Sindh flipping means entire sea coast is out of bounds.
China knows India has bigger cards. The Chinese are new to this place. We've been here forever.

Time for India to do a swift military action to take out the stretch from Mohanpur, Tripura to Ashuganj, BD (Meghna River). The distance is less than 25 miles. Make the line of control as the Meghna river. This will immediately cut off the south east part of BD - Comilla, Chittagong. This is a choke point and it will be highly unlikely that BD will be able to defend this stretch. That entire area cannot be supplied or sustained by the BD government. Also, seems like this area is less densely populated. Any of the fundoos in this area can be marched over to the BD heartland to enjoy their Islamic paradise.

A quick tight slap will have them in all kinds of knots, with their main port (Chittagong) gone. Mia Younass can talk all day long about landlocked, port access etc.

This has to be done at the minimum, with the possibility of widening the Chicken's neck.

I feel that India should change the narrative to say that all of BD is Indian territory and not recognize the British drawn up boundaries. When China can make ridiculous claims, why is India shy?

Younus is temporary. Indian actions should be based on what the next elected government of BD does, assuming that the elections are indeed held by the end of 2025.

If elections are delayed beyond end of 2025, then India's actions should accordingly be adjusted.

Neela ji,


The ISI and the pakis have stirred the pot, both in beediland and in the NE by laying the groundwork and setting up some basic framework to trigger violence, inflame passions, precipitate and fan sectarian violence, which then, will be eagerly covered by the already prepped NGO backed presstitute media mafia and an anti India narrative will be launched.

The game is just about to begin. This is a toolkit that may well be brought into play

youanus is not being entirely truthful though he is being politically vengeful and needlessly adventurous. The beedis simply cannot afford to piss off India, beyond a reasonable point.

The idiotic pakis are paying a very heavy price for doing just this very thing
India-Myanmar relations are rooted in shared historical, ethnic, cultural and religious ties. As the land of Lord Buddha, India is a country of pilgrimage for the people of Myanmar. India and Myanmar share a long land border of over 1600 km and a maritime boundary in the Bay of Bengal.

Economic relations are considerable with India representing Myanmar's 4th largest export market and the country's 5th largest import partner.

India gains sea access to its northeastern region (NER) via Myanmar through the Kaladan Multimodal Transit Transport Project, which connects the Sittwe Port in Myanmar to the India-Myanmar border, providing an alternative route for trade and reducing reliance on the Siliguri Corridor.

“The seven states of eastern India—the seven sisters—are landlocked. They have no access to the ocean. We are the only guardians of the ocean,” he said.

You can produce in Bangladesh and sell in China,” he added, underscoring regional cooperation.

ricky_v ji,


In actual fact, the subtext may actually read as follows

knowing what the cheen covet, the beedis are trying to get the cheeni to forge an alternate route to bypass the Malacca trap, and this will bypass the NE and exit the beedi territory via myanmar.

By hoping that the mere threat of beedi allowing the cheen to do so via India's NE, one way or the other, youanus thinks this mere vocalization of such a threat, the casual offering of such a possibility to the cheen, will cause India to back off and treat the beedis "with respect and equality", which in jihadi parlance means, "we will dictate what you will do, or else ... "

youanus forgets that almost all food that the beedis consume, including FMCG, auto and machine parts, cotton, yarn and energy, just to name a few, comes from India

hydro power from nepal is max 80MW, available only for about 4-5 months in a year, bhutan and nepal cannot deal with the beedis without India's help as both countries will have to use Indian territory for their power lines to reach the beedis. youanus is talking through his kufi

cheen is acutely aware that not only is India nuke armed but she also has a very competent and efficient military machine, and furthermore, India is strategically confident and her battle tested Armed forces are not novices, unlike the PLA, and the cheen have been taught their lessons by India, in Nathu La (1967), Sumdorong Chu (1986) and Doklam (2017) and the painful standoff in ladakh where India stood her ground, thus laying to rest forever, the ghosts of 1962.

greedy youanus will meet his lamp post sooner rather than later. After being used by the amrikis to oust hasina, he is now supping with the cheen, without realizing that either of the two will be only too glad to devourer him and get on with their agenda

These two will not make the same mistakes with the beedis that they made with the pakis. The new gwadar that these two great powers are looking for is the st martins island. Both want it but for different reasons

If WB is not allowing border fencing, then in the spirit of upholding the constitution, I'd expect this govt to invoke Art 356 to impose president's rule, get the army in and get the job done. And while at it, take advantage of the chaos in BD to get the chicken's neck problem also sorted out.

Its actions like this that will get you closer to a UNSC seat. Not being a message relay between tiny disjointed countries of the global south and the well fed fat cat global north which couldn't care less and continues to foment anti-india forces in our neighbourhood with impunity and no consequences.

apparently the "land locked" sea locked debate comes right off the pakis way of " addressing their importance" ..

chetak sir, cyrano sir, i will combine both posts as the response is something that touches on both points, please bear, it may be long winded

my assertion is the democracy is not suitable for south asia, has never been, i will recuse india from this discussion as it may get heavily ot, but all the others in the region have basically been a majoritarian / mob rule masquerading as a democratic setup, the first thing india must firmly affix in its mind is that neither of its neighbours is democratic whatever be the colour of the government of the day... what follows from this is that the response of the indian government must also be tailored keeping the above in mind, they are not dealing with democratic setups no matter how balefully the bleatings may be from any country. Democracy was for the states and settlers of europe, most of south asia is 3 hungry meals away from resorting to cannibalism, fairness and rule of law is not foremost in their minds, community rules the roost.

secondly, every major power except india wants to change the current rules based order, they all have their reasoning, some are chafing under restrictions, other want more restrictions, only india is the one battling for status quo, we hear the back burner issue of unsc every now and then, though india's response to it has been one of dementia to say the least, they bring it up in forums and then do nothing about it and repeat ad infinitum. The writings are on the horizon, the current rules based order is not long for this world, and soon we will be faced with a new world order, it is this time to shed the good boy caricature and grab what is necessary and frame rules with others to keep the status quo for the foreseeable future; there is no future of the global human rights forum or the internal criminal justice court systems..

our willingness to be the messiah of the global poor and huddled is admirable, but we have been thoroughly victimised to ger to this exalted position, it will be better if global great powers decide on the tone and temper of the new forum and carve out regions... from what the new us admin is doing, 3 global powers are aligned to divvying up the world into spheres of influence, only eu and india are the holdouts; the momentum of the philosophy will follow through and the new order will be established, it would amount to great brownie points among the powerless and dare i say, whipped global masses, should we stick to our principled ways, but we will again be left out of any meaningful position

what also follows is this: the south asian mind is quite elastic, what people learn today, they forget tomorrow, so it is imperative to the highest degree that the message that is to be sent is etched into the minds of the receivers, and the only way to accomplish this is by permanent crippling. victories or losses amount to little when the populace breed like vermin, to destabilise capability in whatever capacity in a permanent way, the one capable to do that will be the unquestioned incharge of south asia is my first conclusion from all of the above

otoh, if india continues on its good boy, global do-gooder without any meaningful power path, i can foresee at least 4 more partitions to come to the subcontinent; we will all refuse to acknowledge what is imminent by the time the (cum.) 2nd partition comes around, by the third, we will have the official policy of "no-more", by the fourth, due to demographics, it will be more of a civil war, the fifth being proper civil war to settle borders for the distant future



In actual fact, the subtext may actually read as follows

knowing what the cheen covet, the beedis are trying to get the cheeni to forge an alternate route to bypass the Malacca trap, and this will bypass the NE and exit the beedi territory via myanmar.

By hoping that the mere threat of beedi allowing the cheen to do so via India's NE, one way or the other, youanus thinks this mere vocalization of such a threat, the casual offering of such a possibility to the cheen, will cause India to back off and treat the beedis "with respect and equality", which in jihadi parlance means, "we will dictate what you will do, or else ... "
such thoughts are never far from mind when dealing with the katora jirga, chetak sir, yunus must have chuckled to himself having delivered 2 messages in 1 utterance, such sly cunning is prized among these types
hydro power from nepal is max 80MW, available only for about 4-5 months in a year, bhutan and nepal cannot deal with the beedis without India's help as both countries will have to use Indian territory for their power lines to reach the beedis. youanus is talking through his kufi
he knows, thus the other fig leaf of cooperation via saarc
cheen is acutely aware that not only is India nuke armed but she also has a very competent and efficient military machine, and furthermore, India is strategically confident and her battle tested Armed forces are not novices, unlike the PLA, and the cheen have been taught their lessons by India, in Nathu La (1967), Sumdorong Chu (1986) and Doklam (2017) and the painful standoff in ladakh where India stood her ground, thus laying to rest forever, the ghosts of 1962.
if one is not willing to use the weapons, does their possession even really matter?, by the by, why should cheen over extend themselves to kill indians, poor governance and "minorities" are already doing that work for them

the goi has done fuk all, to put it mildly, till now, what are the odds that they would suddenly wake up and do something about it, they will allow flooding in of our new citizens, and then turn around and fear monger the old ones, see, this is illegal immigration, vote us and something will surely happen... amit shah did make noises from his face hole about the rohingyas in delhi and election and cm'ship and sometimes all in the same sentence, have not seen anything done about it, they will always have the fig leaf of the sc to cover such lack of willingness

Agree, sometimes I think Democracy is a western albatross we have hung around our neck all too willingly. Seeing how the pontificating western democracies are doing these days, especially in the EU (Romania, France, the unelected EU power structure itself and so on) its a bit pathetic we dont show them the correct finger (though EAM Dr SJ showed them the index finger at the recent Munich Security Conference) and be done with it. But we are too far from it alas...
