This is exactly what the Muslim world needs to happen in order to survive the next 20 years.

Bangladesh is a country with big problems, including grinding poverty. And it erred in not (unlike India) adopting English as a national language. But it is trying remarkably hard to succeed. Its higher education system is small but good. Its people tend to be very family oriented and very friendly--not a good environment for the development of radical Islamists.

It is telling that Colin Powell visited Bangladesh (and few other Central Asian countries) on his most recent trip to that region.

When it comes to the war on terrorism, Bangladesh is likely to be part of the solution, not part of the problem.

What an ironic Catch-22 this is. If pacifist Muslims (try not to laugh) are going to redeem their religion, they're going to have to kill all their radicals.
