That Bangladesh has violently toppled a democratically elected government and is going in the direction of Afghanistan is not news anymore. What started in a facade of a “student movement” has culminated in countrywide mayhem, arson, bloodbaths, and more. But that is not a shock, either. Anyone aware of the current power dynamics in the South Asian Islamic countries has seen this coming.

For non-Muslim Bangladeshis, Sheikh Hasina was the lesser evil; she was less Islamic than her arch-rival, Khaleda Zia. For how long could a growing jihad-inclined population take such a leader? Bangladesh, in recent times, has emerged as the most fanatical nation regarding Islam on the Indian subcontinent, leaving its counterparts far behind. The Muslim youth of Bangladesh long ago moved away from rationalism and embraced Islamic jihad and Sharia. The existence of the remaining Hindus was an eyesore for them. And so, in the garb of a student uprising, with the aid of the Jamaat-e-Islami, some Bangladeshi Islamic youth toppled the seemingly secular government. Then, within minutes of Hasina’s resignation and fleeing the country, the Hindus of Bangladesh witnessed a gory, bone-chilling replay of what their ancestors went through some 50 years ago.

The ISKCON temple in Meherpur, Khulna division, became one of the first casualties of the Islamic uprising that swept the country. Shortly after, horrid videos of a 200-year-old Hindu temple dedicated to goddess Kali going up in flames went viral on the Internet, leaving Hindus tormented not just in Bangladesh, but in India and elsewhere. There was arson, loot, abduction, and brutal killing all over. The bloodbath is only becoming more grotesque as you read this article. Hindu homes, businesses, religious and religious establishments in 27 districts, including Kaliganj, Hatibandha, Dinajpur, Khansama, and Khulna, were attacked and looted by Islamic mobs baying for Hindu blood. They have looted numerous Hindu temples, torn down the idols, and set the property afire.

Hindus in administrative positions were always the targets of Muslims who were only waiting for an excuse to take them down. They formed mobs and vandalized and plundered the house of the secretary of Lalmonirhat Puja Udjapan Parishad, Pradip Chandra Roy, and ransacked and looted a computer shop that was owned by a Hindu who was also a member of the local municipality. At least four Hindu families were robbed in Kaliganj upazila, and 12 Hindu homes were torched in Hatibandha upazila’s Purbo Sardubi village. Around 10 Hindu houses were ransacked in Dinajpur town as well. Though numbers are not known, Hindu homes were torn down in Panchagarh also. It is a universal fact that news reports are always conservative when publishing numbers. One can only guess the actual number of Hindu homes that were turned into ashes overnight.

“There are no areas or districts left where communal attacks have not occurred. We’re continuously getting reports from different parts of the country about attacks on houses and business establishments …” stated Monindra Kumar Nath, senior joint general secretary of the Oikya  Parishad. “They’re crying, saying they are being beaten up,  and their houses and businesses are being looted. What is our fault? Is  it our fault that we are citizens of the country?”

Bangladesh was never a country for the Hindu; in fact, no country that has a Muslim majority can ever be home to a non-Muslim. And so, much like what happened in 1971, this new and darker era of Bangladesh commences with thousands of Hindus marching towards India to find refuge. Reportedly, the first batch of Hindu refugees from Bangladesh has already reached the Indian border along northern Bangladesh.

The religious minority in Bangladesh is going through unimaginable suffering, and this could continue until the fanatical Muslim mob has finished off the last non-Muslim in Bangladesh. The victims have no one to turn to, as global organizations such as the United Nations sold their souls to their Islamic masters long ago.

Bangladesh has descended into a true Islamic abyss. There are mutilated, naked, dead bodies suspended from giant structures in full public view. Islamic apologists in India have done everything in their power to whitewash the Islamic onslaught on Hindus in Bangladesh. Indian Muslims are eyeing a similar insurgency in India; they are not even discreet about it anymore. Leftists dub the anarchy in Bangladesh as a victory of democracy, a triumph of the students’ movement, and a revolution of sorts. What students march into a former prime minister’s residence and loot furniture, clothes, eatables, home appliances, plants, animals, and birds? What student loots the underwear of an older woman from her house and flashes it to his fellow students as a sign of victory? A jihadi does.
