What is happening in India, our sub-continent and the world? The act of terrorism in Mumbai is absolutely outrageous. We condemn the incident in the strongest possible terms. Who are these cowards? What Islam and the Muslim population in the world will gain from such activities of terrorism? It will bring more shame, condemnations, hatred etc. for the majority of the Muslims who are peace loving, development oriented, progressive etc.
Now, we urge upon the right thinking Muslims, Christians, Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, Jews, to unite, co-operate with each other and fight the devils and wipe them out.
Our sons and daughters deserve a peaceful safe happy world.

The Mumbai seize and indiscriminate killings by terrorists has surpassed all the previous incidents in its style, use of sophisticated weapons, the criminals' depth of coordination among themselves etc. The whole world was shaken.
The USA's war on terror campaign has yielded nothing. The strength of terrorists and their sophistication is rather growing. To succeed in this campaign against terror all the nations should join hands to fight it out.
The time has come for all the nations to look into the roots and find the patrons of these terrorists. Bangladesh is not an exception. I feel the terrorists in Bangladesh are no less dangerous.
I think Bangladesh should also reduce dependence on Muslim countries, especially the Arabs. In the name of aid, our Muslim brothers invest only in religious institutions, some of which are used by the fanatics as breeding grounds of terrorists.
