DO YOU HEAR?

DO YOU HEAR?

Cowardice must not be so common as to self-stifle the voice of protest when innocent Hindus are being killed in Bangladesh just because they happen to be Hindus. 

Islamic extremists want to make Bangladesh Hindu-free and they are well entrenched in their operation to doing so. Must West Bengali Hindus be mute witnesses to this evil extermination of Hindus and Hinduism in their eastern neighbourhood across the border? Have they been reduced to such a vegetative state that they cannot even protest? Must Islam, born just 1416 years ago, obliterate a dhārmic tradition that has lasted at least 5000 years, albeit shrinking ever since the Islamic invasion of Sindh in 712 CE? Do Hindu lives not matter at all? Why do West Bengali Hindus not thunder against this persistent inhumanity against Hindus in Bangladesh? Have they lost moral fibre completely? Have they lost character or is this what West Bengali Hindus across the spectrum are today---theist, atheist, left, right and centre? I wonder. 🕉 Hindu!
