JFK airport incident
What happened at JFK airport in New York on 19 September 2010 afternoon is very sad. The activists of BNP went there to demonstrate peacefully against Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's totalitarian practices and human rights violations in Bangladesh. If they could demonstrate peacefully, I do not think Sheikh Hasina would be terribly humiliated, because many prime ministers and presidents have to undergo such embarrassing experiences. By attacking the BNP protesters and turning the airport area into a battlefield, those Awami League activists dishonoured our beloved country. Sheikh Hasina was also mortified and had to use a 'safe exit door' to leave the airport.
