Apart from retributive political violence and the targeting of minority Hindus, the rioters also attacked symbols and sites associated with the Father of the Nation who led Bangladesh to independence, which sends a chilling message about what they have in mind for the future of their country.
I am pessimistic: I see no way out for Bangladesh. If they just keep on pursuing so-called American-style democracy and continue to drift toward orthodox Muslim (with similar trends in Malaysia, Indonesia, and Brunei) Please watch and compare two groups of nations in southeast Asia for their longer term development: those on the Eurasia continent are mostly Buddhists. Those on the ocean's side are mostly Muslim (due to historical migration patterns) The odd one is Philippine (I think Catholic north and Muslim south). Singapore is multi-ethnic, but the geography is so tight and bind them together -- to the point that people there have no other choice but to cooperate.
37 years of progress and prosperity of hardworking entrepreneurs and educated Bangladeshi wiped out in one sponsored and orchestrated coup by Charlie I America, good luck with JET, this country will be Pakistan 2.0
Pakistan 2.0 would satisfy the United States greatly.

Hi, Zerohedge sent me!
Why am I not surprised that religion-based authoritarianism and pro-West sentiment goes hand-in-hand in Bangladesh too?
