Bastobota without reality chara

Situation is, 50+ hours have gone and counting. Indian Army / security forces still could not flash out terrorists from one of the hotels in Mumbai. Probably they should ask Sharukh Khan or Ajay Devghan to do something about it now. Both these actors have experience in handling such situations, unlike them (Indian Army).

How inefficient a trained security forces can be? After 50 hours of operation, all they could find is, dead bodies inside the hotels, hello, the whole world already knows it. The Army commander claimed, the soldiers had to retaliate as terrorists started throwing grenades; what were they expecting, flowers? Indian Army said, the terrorists had map and layout of the hotel, which they did not. Sir, search google, you will find it.

Indian commando units stormed into a Jewish center, known as Chabad House. Result………..five bodies of Israeli citizens. The terrorists had executed the hostages during the commando raid, the Indian military said. No sign of terrorists there? Did not you actually go in there for the terrorists? If the hostages are killed, why the hell did you go there? Just to practice rope jumping from helicopters? Same situation in Oberoi hotel – Army raids and recovery of 24 dead bodies of only the hostages.

So, how many lives were saved by the Indian Army? None. On a contrary, over 50 people died after the Army started their operations. The people who came out, they were stuck on other part of the hotels, where terrorists had no control.

The intelligence sources had no idea about the whole thing; still no confirmation of how many terrorists was there, their nationality or name of their organizations. What do these intelligence officers do actually? Watch Bollywood movies in office time and cricket at evening? Perhaps.

Last week, Indian Navy claimed that they destroyed a pirate ship at the Gulf of Aden. Later they found out, it was a Thai fishing vessel. 13 innocent crew died on that incident. It seems, Indian security forces have lost it all. Its Navy is dumb, intelligence force dumber, Army dumbest.

‘Economics’ based answer of the much apprehended question “Why did the Chicken cross the road?”

Demand for eggs was higher on the other side of the road and the chicken figured that supply was not meeting market needs. Moreover, the chicken wanted a dominant market position at the other end as well. It wanted to create and develop the competencies required for the newly competitive market which forced it to explore other side of the market.

With an anti-risk averse mentality, the chicken wanted to break the duck’s monopoly at the other side of the road. The chicken knew, if it would set up a manufacturing unit at that side, it can grab the market with its highly specialized work force and competitive advantages on ‘economics of scale’. Furthermore, government regulations were favorable including holiday taxing at the other side of the road.

What’s happening now will be reflected both in short term blisters and long term scars

It’s Friday and once again we are left with more time than usual to contemplate our future...near & imminent future. Lets mix a few feelings (all negative, I must add) in our otherwise monotonous daily life or should I say daily struggle through traffic and threat of economic collapse.

These are my recent observations-

The caretaker govt. advisors 'weakest link' - Law Advisor Mainul Hosein. With his frequent comments that are not well thought through and very noticeably not communicated or agreed upon by other advisors. I am referring to his recent desire to set up a Truth Commission for

businessmen. For who? For big name businessmen who have built colossal empires on corrupt practices and tax evasion? Yes, all those who have taken thousands of millions Taka from the banks and fled overseas now. But I think we should leave this subject entirely, as we have realized, time  and time again, Law advisor Mainul as being nothing less than bi-polar and what

he says or does is actually out of his own control ! He needs medication!!

What we really need to focus on is the 30-40 percent of population who have been deprived of simple living..food & shelter. With recent growth in the economy only reflected in the affluent business community who joined  hands with recent (corrupt yet past) political parties, its 'the poor and the destitute' who have continuously been ignored,  their basic rights to live........unanswered . Facing one disaster after the other - natural and man-made has created a super thick skinned Bengali but a the same time a very pessimist and selfish one...like myself. @))*

2008 is the year to make or break this country of ours. And what are we prepared to do....this includes everyone-  ARMY, ADVISOR and GENERAL PUBLIC......can we not join forces even during these critical times? And turn what has been bad for most into sometime good for all?  Probably not....

Shame on us.......we are dogs and so deserve to be treated such!  By the government they tries to govern us, by political parties and even by foreign governments,....anyone and everyone who stands higher the sea levels....has the God given right to kick us as they so desired

Mind my words...fellow Bengali's....the next devastation heading our  way is the industrial collapse and followed by the bargain price sellout by these business  houses who are in self exile and enjoying the fruits of their plunder. And would not care if they are unable to return to their Sonar Bangla.

If Shakespeare were alive during these events, he would have no shortage in writing tragedies....................Bangladesh.

My 18 months old son finds my PC a desirable place to hang around. Whenever he finds a chance, runs towards the chair, sits after couple of attempts and starts pushing the keyboards. He already figured out that mouse has a pointer, so he moves the devise all the way around.

One Point not to be taken for granted, by ALL three sectors in dispute- DO NOT abuse you're freedom !!!!

Police fired rubber bullets and tear gas canisters at Dhaka University students following an incident during a football match, where Army personal assaulted three students. Police vehicles with water cannons patrolled the campus, firing tear gas canisters and hot water at the demonstrators. Over 130 students and several policemen were injured in the confrontations. The acting vice chancellor of the university, AFM Yusuf Haider, and the proctor Aka Firowz Ahmed were also injured in police action that lasted the whole night.

Thousands of students rallied last night demanding removal of an army camp from the campus and an apology from the Army for beating up students. The students also called strike at Dhaka University for an indefinite period to protest this inhuman behaviour.

This morning, students started protesting again with only two justifiable demands - apology and removal of Army camp from the campus.

Why is August? Why the Army or any anther forces holding weapons and grenades do not resist them from attacking the innocents in August?

If the students are willing to remain calm only if the authority meets two demands, why delay? 

It is the culprits’ good luck that the students did not ask the Army to hand over the blamed ones to them.

"Now this is really insulting ... both to the people of B'desh and Pope John Paul II Sigma Huda awarded 'Pope John Paul II Wellspring of Freedom Award.

What next, Nazmul Huda getting the Nobel Prize? Anyone remotely connected with The Institute of Religion and Public Policy (Based in DC) should get a reality check. Especially its President Joseph K Grieboski, awarding and commenting so highly of a common thief - Sigma Huda of the Huda Klang. For me, all this proves or rather disproves the actually credibility of such an
Institute or organization.

What 'unceasing work' of defending human rights has she done, other than stealing from the people of Bangladesh to fatten her own wallet, using her position to get her way?. She, of all people, being a lawyer took advance of her husband political pull to get what she deemed as her God given right to exploit. So Mr. Grieboski...crawl back under the stone you came from. And let the people of B'desh decide honorable Sigma Huda's fate under the law Lastly, simple line for all of those pseudo intellectual, blind folded, self righteous pricks ...Get your facts right!!!"
