A bit late. But why was this remark necessary?
Amongst other things.
I’d hate for the uprising and new governance in Bangladesh to be another Arab spring.
Fake news.
“there was no question of a Pakistani upper hand.”
Yeah, that’s an ominous possibility.
Fuck Pakistan really. Why did he need to make a remark on India’s Siliguri corridor ?
I don’t recall Dr. Yunus or the Foreign Advisor making any remarks.
Yeah, some of the Young Turks has chosen India-Bashing to raise their stock.
But BNP, the party India used to dread most, is proving to be the matured head in the room.
He mentioned that.
Thanks for posting this. I liked that quote:
In the book, she describes how Trump called her after the massacre, and it’s subtly revealing about both of them. “We discussed what might happen to the terrorist,” she writes. “I used that word, ‘terrorist’, specifically and President Trump asked if we were calling the gunman that.” She said to him: “Yes, this was a white man from Australia who deliberately targeted our Muslim community. We are calling him that.”
Trump did not respond, but asked if there was anything America could do. “You can show sympathy and love for all Muslim communities,” she told him. It was the reverse of the politics of division: she says that the terrorist “chose us because he knew that New Zealand openly welcomed people of all faiths. He wanted to destroy that.”
