well, i'm very sorry to hear about ur uncle. amaro relatives ase who died in the liberation war as well. basically, a lot of people had to go through tragic incidents like this during every war. but from my point of view, no one should hold ALL the Pakistanis responsible for the death of those people.

its not that im holding all of them RESPONSIBLE..im just saying its a doubt that naturally comes inside my mind.i can never view pakistan,,as just any country,like i can do for spain for example,the history,the injustice of it all influences my mind.

it was wrong. war is always wrong. but then think of its good side. it is because of people like our uncles nd relatives who sacrificed .. that Bangladesh is now a country of its own right? so, basically, the Pakistanis did us good cuz they provoked us in forming our own identity in the world.

Any and all racism is wrong.

If there is no universal truth, then is racism justifiable in some cases? By replying in the negative you will have contradicted that very notion of the non-nonexistence of universal truth.

Whether or not Bangladesh is better off now than it would have been had it still been East Pakistan is besides the point.

If you deem Pakistani action in the liberation war justifiable then do you also not condemn Hitler and his cohorts? (Hitler firmly believed that he was doing the right thing)

Need I remind you that of the purported 3 million bengali lives lost, women and children made up the majority of that figure. How do you justify that? Do you plead the absence of universal truth?

I don't even like some Pakistanis or how they view the Liberation war.I hate Arabs owing to the fact how they treat our migrant workers there in the Middle East.Not all Arabs but the Persian Gulf ones.

It's a deep rooted issue.West Bengal hates East Bengal,even though we are both Bengali provinces.there is definitely some politics mixed with it I admit.

Even if the whole world hates you, it is wrong on your part to harbour that very sentiment towards them.

Many pakistani followers of our country says that Seikh mujib made up the number(30 lacs) to get worlds attention.i hate this people.

okay even if just one innocent life was lost, how is that justifiable in any way?
