Bangladesh is the next Pakistan - a failing Islamic state that goes the terrorist way.

Islam is incompatible with human life on earth.

Islam must be eradicated from the planet.

Not Muslims. Islam.

1. So the US is now bombing bangledesh to distract from the failures in iraq and to underscore their lies about the fake war on terror?

Pakistan. Iran. India. Some sort of connection. I'm doing the math here... gimme a minute.

This is stated exactly in the koran of how to sow the seeds of Islam within a country, then take the country over from within once they have acquired enough strength by numbers.
This is all in black and white.....how do you think Mohammed and his goons took over the Saudi peninsula?
More of this to come, but in a more bloody fashion inflicting not just injuries but many deaths to the 'infidels'.

Bombs explode across Bangladesh
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/4158478.stm

The bombs were crude, homemade devices

More than 50 people have been injured in a series of simultaneous bomb blasts across Bangladesh.

Police say about 100 explosions took place in some 50 cities and towns across the country including the capital Dhaka and Chittagong.

They are said to have taken place in front of government buildings, markets, press clubs and court premises.

An outlawed Islamic group, Jamatul Mujahideen Bangladesh, says it carried out the attacks.

Reports say many of the injured have been admitted to local hospitals, although most of the injuries are not life-threatening.

The blasts caused panic across many cities leading to massive traffic jams. Reports say parents rushed to bring their children home from school.

"It's an organised attack," Home Minister Lutfozzaman Babor said, but added he was not sure who was behind the bombings.

The Associated Press reports that seven people have been arrested in connection with the blasts.

Police say most of the bombs were small, homemade devices - wrapped in tape or paper.

Unexplained

Leaflets from the Jamatul Mujahideen Bangladesh have appeared at the site of some of the blasts.

"It is time to implement Islamic law in Bangladesh" and "Bush and Blair be warned and get out of Muslim countries", the leaflets say.

"Bush and Blair be warned and get out of Muslim countries."

Early this year the Bangladesh government banned Jamatul Mujahideen and another group, Jagrata Muslim Janata Bangladesh

They were accused of being behind a series of bomb blasts, including those at two local aid agencies - Grameen and Brac.

The BBC's Roland Buerk in Dhaka said the banning was a major change in policy as the government had long insisted there was no threat from Islamic militancy.

Police and security forces were quickly deployed on Wednesday and were seen checking vehicles at Dhaka's main intersections.

Several unexplained bombs have exploded across Bangladesh in recent years.

On Saturday, one person was killed and 50 others injured after several bombs were thrown at a Muslim shrine in eastern Bangladesh.

In May last year, the British High Commissioner in Bangladesh was hurt in a grenade explosion at a Muslim shrine in the north-eastern town of Sylhet.

Three people were killed and more than 50 wounded in that attack.

Our Freepers in India have been warning us that this would come. Islam preaches that those of the Hindu religion and the Buddhists are even more "evil" than Christians and Jews.

They just went after us first because the Koran gives instructions on the order in which to attack each of the types of "infidels". This maybe the start of plan B.

[bored at work]

can we coroborate this with additional sources. I can't seem to find it being reported anywhere?

[bored at work]

never mind. just found another one.

seems like radwriter0666 might be a better handle.

Which remind me, though Mohammed died about 632AD, the first Islamic Empire was formed about 666AD.

Maybe somebody should post that on the DU side, but I don't know if they would know what it means...

[bill1952]

It's all their own fault.
Their own foreign policies are to blame.

If they would just stop supporting Israel, and get their troops out of the Holy Lands, then terrorism would stop.

Ask cindy, she knows all about it.

"It is time to implement Islamic law in Bangladesh" and "Bush and Blair be warned and get out of Muslim countries", the leaflets say.

The BBC includes this under a sub-head "Unexplained." I'd say it explains it perfectly, with the first statement the operative one and the second merely BS propaganda.

The Islamist-loving BBC also obliges by highlighting, "Bush and Blair" blah-blah, in a nice bold box, so that the typical reader scanning the page sees only that.

[houeto]

DU's response: It's Bush's fault!

Yup, and then right after that a newbie posts that the american sheep have to realize that muslims don't want war and that no muslim would ever kill.

That followed directly by a long time DU'er stating that they are not muslims (the terrorists) and welcomes the newbie to DU.

HELLO INFIDELS!!!!!

[elfman2]

"Wow...a warning of bigger things to come, since the bombs were apparently of low power?"

Nonsense. Al-Qaeda terrorists don’t give “warnings of bigger things to come”. It simply means that they have 100 or so people competent enough to successfully set off a bomb of limited size.

When al-Qaeda’s a able to attack, they attack. When they’re not able to attack, they threaten. It’s not rocket science.

[ran15]

The democrats seem to be saying any muslim who commits terrorism is not a 'true' muslim. Thus blaming muslims for terrorism is wrong.

Just like when the democrats say even though communism failed miserably everywhere it has been tried, that was not 'true' communism.
