Islamists In Bangladesh Demand Murder of More Bloggers

Posted by Soulskill on from the maybe-everybody-could-just-chill-out-for-a-bit dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Days after the killing of leftist blogger Thaba Baba, mosques throughout Bangladesh called for a popular uprising to demand the killing of other bloggers who had held a rally calling for the death of Jama'at-e-Islami leaders convicted of war crimes. This happens in an atmosphere of ongoing tension between Left and Right, with the leftist government threatening to outlaw rightist parties while the right uses violence to quiet selected enemies."

    Yeah, who knew WMD really meant words of mass destruction. No wonder we didn't find any in Iraq, we weren't looking in the libraries.
