Islamists Make Gains in Bangladesh

This is an ideology that eats whoever allows it to flourish. It must be marginalized and eradicated wherever we see it.

Bangladesh, a Muslim-majority nation, is currently undergoing a political transition after widespread protests ousted its authoritarian government last year.

 

An interim administration is currently in charge but there are concerns that Islamist groups, which had been pushed to the fringes, have become emboldened again.

 

The women’s football match was the third to be cancelled in northern Bangladesh in less than two weeks due to the objections of religious hardliners.

 

In the Dinajpur area, roughly 70km (43 miles) west of Rangpur, Islamists protesting against a game clashed with locals who supported it, leaving four people injured.

    My favorite line from the link concerned defending the general slow or lack of reaction from security forces and other authorities:

    >The authorities have defended the security forces for not intervening, saying doing so would have cost lives.

    Uh. guys? Extremist Islamic groups WILL cost lives, a lot more lives later with lackluster or absent intervention now.
    Or the Country will, as they said it in the article: “…be Talibanized.” Islamic extremists don’t quit politely.

    That’s the Democratic Republic of the Congo. I hope they decapitated Christians Democratically in a Republic sort of way.
