True fools are the citizens who continue to allow these people to hold the country hostage. Unless we revolt and throw them out, we and our children will continue to suffer.

Since long Mr. Anam has been hammering through his columns for holding dialogue. Now he has realised that dialogue has no chance to bring any result. His policy of maintaining a very calculated balance in apportioning blame in perfectly equal measure to both the rival groups can't be an intelligent, rational and viable guide for the people to decide in whose favour they should take their stand.

One needs common sense in order to understand Mr. Anam's message.

"War crimes, Kerry & history" (December12, 2013)

Was Nuremburg trial procedure different from Bangladeshi trail? Also saying Bangladesh Parliamentary election may derail - did he mean the violence will increase and it may impact the election? There is no international standard of spying… SBA got it wrong. Ask RAW/ISI/KGB/MOSSAD --no one follows any standard. I think Bangladesh is in a much better situation to explain to these western countries the reasons of these trials and should have been ready for a diplomatic defence.

We, the people of Bangladesh are responsible for the interference of other countries in our internal issue because we elect dumb and greedy political leaders to lead our nation.

Mr Ahsan, you have got it all wrong. Although, I do not agree with many of Kerry's policies, I do not think he was saying anything in support of Jamaat and BNP. But what Kerry is saying here is a very simple observation on the possible consequences of Mollah's hanging in the present situation.

A great piece indeed exposing the American hypocrisy. What international standard was followed to execute unarmed Bin Laden?

US had suffered severely in the last decade for not listening to logic and standards. So much so that today it's making negotiations with the same Taliban who they fought for 14 years. Not just US, but UK, Australia, EU and rights bodies have objections because of the process of justice.

Thanks for this correct analysis and to place the political crisis in Bangladesh in its historical context. The UN does not give a penny to Bangladesh; it is all about the (hidden) agenda of international stakeholders in the region.

US is not a perfect nation nor their own citizens are enjoying equal privilege. Nonetheless, when it comes to citizen rights, the difference between US and Bangladesh is day and night.

Everyone demands what serves their interests; democracy, human rights are just illusions that shadow them.
