Austin Bay has
more information on the terrorist bombings in Bangladesh.
What's amazing is that the Islamist radicals suspected in the bombings are also suspected of previously bombing offices of the
Grameen Bank, a micro-lending organization that has done incredible good for the poor of that region.
Bay quotes from India's
Business Standard's report on the bombings, which notes that leaflets were found at the sites of many of the attacks, saying in part:
"It is time to implement Islamic law in Bangladesh. There is no future with man-made law," and "(US President George W Bush) and (British Prime Minister Tony Blair) be warned and get out of Muslim countries."
The
Business Standard continues:
While calling on the people, government and the political parties represented in Parliament to implement "Allah's laws," the leaflets said that "currently laws are formulated by infidels."
"We will help you in implementing Allah's laws. We do not want power," they said.
"We're the soldiers of Allah. We've taken up arms for the implementation of Allah's law," the Islamic outfit said in the leaflets. The group asked "anti-Islamic" NGOs to stop activities "against Islam, otherwise, you will be uprooted."
People better wake up and recognize what's going on here....
