Ideological warfare!
The two major political parties are fighting out their last ideological war with records of respective political history. We are innocent watchers of the events since early 50's. The independence movements which began back in 1952 and ended in 1971 all belong to the ordinary " lungi clad" people and not to any Generals; rather the war was against the Generals, internally grown or externally directed. The leadership came from the politicians and not from any Generals. Unfortunately, the Generals have succeeded in taking away the democratic rights of the people time and again during the last 39 years.
We belong to the third party of people's rights. It is a very crucial moment for us to be well guarded and ensure that the religious fundamentalists cannot take the opportunity to pave their way for a Islamic revolution, a long term dream of their allies who are anticipating soldiers of foreign country to create trouble spots prevailing in some Muslim majority countries. Unfortunately, the troublemakers belong to their club who anticipate and see that foreign elements might be seen again to start the trouble. Who are they? The record is just opposite to their belief.
The ideological fight is now open and clear. There will be no end to it until the third party of the people intervene and stop the troublemakers once and for all.
We believe in peace and democracy. We do not endorse religious politics.
