designate jamaat e islami and shibir terrorist organization

Created by F.K. on February 16, 2013

Democracy and Religious Fundamentalism does not co-exists. Jamaat-e-Islami was involved in war crimes, a genocide, in Bangladesh in 1971. After independence they were banned to do constitutional politics. Under the military ruler and their illegal assistance, Jamaat-e-Islami revived and created student wing "Shibir". They are the common threat to Bangladesh democracy as well as freedom of speech, women and minority rights. Their communal outlook are the basic threats of human rights. They're sponsoring terrorism throughout Pakistan, India and Bangladesh. The government of Bangladesh is facing a hard time to ensure freedom and equality of common people. At the same time Jamaat is jeaopordizing this effort. If Jamaat and Shibir aren't stopped, Bangladesh will remain poor and unstable.
