There was once a whore who wanted much more
Than a career in spreading her thighs;
She thought she recognised a customer disguised
By the feel (she was wrong) of his size.
“Are you Kamaldin?” “No, I’m Aladdin.”
“Aaaah!” she gasped, “I won’t charge you if you’ll
Make me - easy, my boy - an intellectual.”
And Shahrazad perceived the dawn of day
And ceased to say her permitted say.
At the NGO the donors then became her new owners
Who asked her to denounce the Caliphate,
Sing democracy’s praise, and their secular ways,
And to parrot that laissez-faire wasn’t great!
And before each meeting she observed
That the rights of women must be preserved!
And Shahrazad perceived the dawn of day
And ceased to say her permitted say.
But her bottom would smart just as when she was a tart
From the sitting position she used;
And her mouth would be sore like it used to before
While some flaccid old fool stood amused.
So she wanted her honesty back
And let Aladdin have one more whack!
And Shahrazad perceived the dawn of day
And ceased to say her permitted say.

The felis domesticus of Bangladesh
There is an article in today's (24th May) Bangladesh Observer, lifted, it says, from the internet, on Sheikh Hasina as a sort of felis domesticus – a cat. How so? For repeatedly surviving attempts to kill her.
Apparently this female feline is on an international terrorist hit list. And the reason?
According to Messrs. Samuel T. Smith and Tony Shahabarat, her crime in the eyes of the jihadis is that she is a female ruler in a Muslim country. This, apparently, was why Bhutto was killed in Pakistan. Not for being pro-western or pro-Indian, mind you, but for being – female.
It would then have to follow that Khaleda Zia, twice prime minister of Bangladesh, is not on the hit list for being female because – unbeknown to all but the jihadis – she has undergone a sex change. However, she still looks and sounds female.
Then there's Indonesia's Megawati Sukarnoputri – surely she looks female to most of us? Then it is a gross oversight on the part of the jihadis not to honour her with a place on the list.
The answer to the feline's problems is simple of course – she must speedily undergo a sex change, and sport a beard and a moustache. But then one wonders how the unmodern jihadis will react to this modern procedure. (I have had several cats spayed, but a sex change…well, why not?)
Let the she-male prime minister come, and test our hypothesis!
(NB I have not been able to find the article anywhere on the net; if some kind soul would discover it, could he/she please let me know?)

The Basenji dogs of Bangladesh
The Basenji dog never barks; Amnesty International sometime does: sometimes it's just a Basenji.
And this was one of the occasions.
A bomb maker of an Islamist group, Boma Mizan, was arrested by security forces, on 14th May after a four-hour struggle.
He gave the signal to his wife, Sharmin, and the lady immediately set off explosives to try and blow up herself and her children. She succeeded only in blowing off her right wrist and wounding her two children, one two years old, the other a baby.
Why did she do that?
Naturally, she didn't want to be raped and tortured for information, as, without doubt, she will be. And with her gone, who would look after her children? It seemed the rational thing to do.
But where were the Basenji dogs of the west: Amnesty, Human Rights Watch and the assorted chorus of our conscience?
Nowhere to be heard.
When jihadis are arrested, there is never any call from the Basenjis to follow due process, avoid the use of torture, the need for transparency….
Yet Human Rights Watch has been snapping like a Russian Samoyed over the arrest of BDR soldiers implicated in the murder and rape of army officers and their wives.
Double standards? Perish the thought: they just lose their voices from over-barking at times.

Another Reformation? Off your rocker, are you?
"SIR – The right to examine and disagree with any institution, especially the church or state, benefits the object of inspection. The UN Human Rights Council's decision to forbid "defamation" of religion fails to recognise the benefits of scrutiny in evaluating the integrity of a religion.
Islam is strong enough to withstand criticism. If the countries that lobbied for the UN vote believe this, the resolution would not have passed.
Stephen Wong
Germantown, Maryland"
Take this letter to the editor: a superb example of bad logic and unexamined premises.
"The right to examine and disagree with any institution, especially the church or state, benefits the object of inspection."
Did the right to examine the RC Church benefit the object of examination? It turned it into a cruel inquisitor and ingniter of bonfires. The Wars of Religion started and Christianity itself became abhorrent to many: it was one of the forces for secularization in the west. Finally, the Thirty Years' War gave complete power to princes in religious matters. No doubt, in some spiritual way, those who were burnt at the stake or who set fire to the fagots were improved, but certainly not in any corporeal sense.
Islam has only on major division: the Shia-Sunni split. What these people who cry for a Muslim Reformation seem to want is a internal civil war within the Muslim polity: sorry, no can do. As R.A.Nicholson observed: "It must be admitted for the credit of the Ulama, that they seldom resorted to violence. Islam was happily spared the horrors of an organised Inquisition." Let's keep it that way, shall we?
Moreover, these 2estern attitudes reveal an essential western value: the love of conflict over concord.
Western history over the last 500 years reads like a B-grade action movie, if you'll forgive the mixed metaphor: hostility towards each other, and towards the world, marks western civilization.
After two world wars, Europe discovered itself and stopped shooting. "Halt! Who goes there?" "You!"
Of course, western bellicosity has gained it entrée to every nook of the world, but what it really craves is to enter every niche of the vanquished mind. Sheer physical domination has not been enough. They want the enchained to love their chains.
Mental domination is a unique aspect of the west: totalitarianism is a purely western phenomenon. Its founder was Plato, who deplored the "privatization of thoughts and feelings". It is not enough to control your actions; your thoughts must also be controlled. And in this the west succeeds admirably. http://www.unlikelystories.org/sayeed0706.shtml
So many have come to love their chains! So many intellectuals try to think the way their masters do: it's not just a question of competence with cutlery, but with psychic manipulation.
Isn't it enough to control Saudi Arabia: why do you have to control the mind of the average Saudi? So long as the oil flows, and Israel is protected, why mess with the religion?
A struggle against the west therefore means a struggle for mastery over one's own mind: a nation of mental slaves, such as Bangladesh, can never resist the west. Pakistan is more to be admired: in pretending to carry out its master's instructions, it pursues its own interests (this is only true of the army and the intelligence branch, of course, the ISI). It keeps its focus on its main adversary, India, and meanwhile spreads weapons of mass destruction worldwide, selling secrets to Iran and North Korea. As George Orwell observed, the atom bomb will be the great equalizer – pitting small states against big, the individual against the state (

The Fallacy of Accent
The fallacy of accent is a favourite of connoisseurs of informal fallacies. The classic example runs as follows.
It is the story of the captain and the first mate. The captain, a stout teetotaler, and the first mate, an inveterate old toper, got along miserably on board. Exasperated with his bibulous subaltern, the captain entered the following in the log: ‘The mate was drunk today’. The mate discovered this and got his own back by recording, when it was his turn to enter the log: ‘The captain was sober today’.
More sinister is the caption under a photograph of two women in chador and sunglasses, laughing at the camera: Not gloom and doom all the time. The implication of gloom and doom almost every living second (except when photographed by a western journalist) in a Muslim country is artfully suppressed.
The most recent example I’ve found is from the inside pages of The Economist (25th April 2009):
“Globalisation, of course, requires global news. But Sir John[Maddox] was equal to that. Henry Gee, another protégé, recalls a trick that Sir John called the “Afghanistan Effect”. “You write a little news story that says that nothing much has happened in Afghanistan, and people think ‘Goodness! Nature has coverage of Afghanistan’.”

Ahmedinejad speaks the truth
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090420/ap_on_re_eu/un_un_racism_conference
Ahmedinejad speaks the truth - and the west (as usual) doesn't like it. Where women have to give births at checkpoints, it is amazing that this country is respected by the west; a country that practices ritual assassination (Olmert had not ruled out the possibility of even taking out the Palestinian president), western hypocrisy stinks to high heaven. All these countries are seasoned killers, so human dignity mean nothing to them.
In India, the British government stood silently by while 3 million starved to death in 1943 - and they insist it was a good regime. In Orwell's novel, Burmese Days, we see the racist contempt that the British felt for the natives; and The World of Suzie Wong shows us that it was OK to have sex with a Chinese girl, but marrying one...simply not done, old chap. In Lawrence of Arabia, we see the present Israeli contempt for Arabs crystalising. When Lawrence excuses his ill-fitting uniform, he says that his had been stolen. The immediate response of the others is : "Wogs!"
My doctor friend in Britain says that they regard skin colour the way Muslims regard pigs. One of his patients told him to his face: "I don't mind coloured doctors, but my friends do".

Barrister Abdur Razzak, a leader of Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami received written notice from Investigation Officer with Criminal Investigation Department (CID), Abdul Kahar Akhand asking Razzak to appear before the investigation officer for interrogation in connection to Bangladesh Riffles (BDR) massacre case.
It may be mentioned here that, Kahar Akhand is known in Bangladesh as he was the investigation officer of Bangabandhu murder case and Jail killing case. He was warned by the highest judiciary in the country for his lack of experience in investigating the cases.
Kahar, basically a loyalist of the ruling party was brought back to service on contract basis from retirement. He has 'high reputation' of twisting various investigations to meet the taste of the ruling party. He is one of the very few officers in Bangladesh Police, who has direct access via cell phone to both the Prime Minister and the Home Minister. For such 'high connection', Kahar shows damn-care attitude towards his senior officers while continues to misbehave with all the junior officers in the police department as well in CID.
The present rulers in Dhaka especially assigned their own man like Kahar Akhand as the chief investigator of the BDR massacre case, as they knew, this officer will do everything in finally setting out all the names of Awami League men behind this notorious crime, thus putting several opposition leaders and figures as the accused. Since his appointment as the chief investigator of the case, Kahar Akhand is in constant contact with the Home Minister and several influential leaders in the ruling party.
Top level in the government has reportedly given repeated instructions to Kahar Akhand in entangling some leaders from Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) Jamaat and some Islamist forces like Hizb Ut Tahrir etc. He also has been suggested to 'discover' militant connection to this sensitive case.
When Awami League leader Torab Ali Akhand was arrested in connection to this case and was interrogated by several intelligence agencies, including CID, it was crystal clear to the investigators that the ruling party and some opposition leaders played dirty role in giving instigation and patronization to the bloody massacre. Such message was secretly communicated to the high-ups in the government. Hearing such information from Abdul Kahar Akhand, high-command in the ruling Grand Alliance has strongly instructed him to 'do something in turning the matter to another direction or face severe consequence'.
CID officer Abdul Kahar Akhand already knows the case of Muhidul Islam Muhit, who is the plaintiff of Bangabandhu murder case. Muhit was the Assistant Personal Secretary to Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and was on duly at the residence of the founding father of Bangladesh during the black night of brutal assassination of him and other members of Bangabandhu's family.
Muhit was found in a poor economic condition in Jessore after Awami League formed government in 1996. He was picked up by the government and was encouraged to lodge the case. Abdul Kahar Akhand was introduced to Muhit from the very first hour, for preparing the First Information Report (FIR) as well as statement for the investigation into this case.
Muhit received more than 3 residential plots and substantial amount of money from Awami League for agreeing to become the plaintiff of the case. This case changed the life of this poor man, who ultimately sold out all the plots, which were secretly allocated in his name to the owners of Akij Group of Companies in Bangladesh.
Abdul Kahar Akhand knows that, if he will be able to serve the purpose of the ruling party, his next few years in the contract-based job in police service will be extremely bright. He will be compensated in diversified ways. But, if he will ignore instructions from the high-command of the ruling party, he not only will lose the job, but his life will also be in extreme danger.
With such tendency in mind, Akhand has successfully saved Torab Ali from making confessional statement to the Metropolitan Magistrate under section 164. It is even claimed that, Torab Ali, instead of being interrogated, is enjoying comfortable time inside the CID headquarters in Dhaka. At the instruction of influential figures in the government, Abdul Kahar Akhand in ensuring all possible comfort to this confirmed collaborator of the BDR massacre.
And, according to latest news, the 'Walkie-Talkie' minister in the present government in Dhaka, Lt. Col. (Retired) Faruk Khan told reporters that the probe report shall be made public “within a week”. This is the fifth extension of the time limit set for the report.
According to various scoops, the investigators have so far identified a number of points and questions in identifying culprits behind the massacre. These points or questions are:
What was the intelligence report sent to the Prime Minister on February 25 in the early morning as acknowledged by the PM in the parliament,
What was the last conversation between Major General Shakil Ahmed and the Prime Minister on February 25,
Why the PM regretted her attendance to the dinner on February 26,
Who instructed announcement from the nearby mosques on February 25 and 26 asking local residents near BDR headquarters to move to a safe distance,
Why Lt. Col. Mukit sent fax messages from the BDR headquarters on February 25 evening against army and the BDR's director general,
Why members of police and RAB were not deployed within gate number 5, through which the mutineers fled,
Why the PM assigned Nanak and Azam at 1:00 pm., after 4 hours of she heard about the mutiny,
Why names and identities of the delegation of mutineers, who met the PM were not registered at the entrance of the PM's residence,
Mutiny leader DAD Towhid told the PM about the murder of director general of BDR and some other officers when he met her with his team. But, why this matter was kept secret by the government till February 26 evening,
Why Bangladesh TV was not showing anything about the mutiny or even news scroll, although the issue was being covered by all private channels,
Why the mutineers were terming the PM as “amader netri” (our leader),
Why some mutineers were chanting Awami League's party slogan 'Joy Bangla' while they were talking to the press,
There had been several overseas incoming calls inside the BDR headquarters during the massacre. Investigators are trying to find the callers,
Why Prime Minister's son Sajib Wajed Joy came to Dubai on February 27 to meet some of the fleeing mutineers,
Why Joy handed over thick envelops to each of the fleeing mutineers at the Dubai airport,
Why Joy made critical remarks on Bangladesh Army and made army liable for the mutiny during interview with various international media,
Why Sajib Wajed Joy has been instructed by her mother not to come to Bangladesh before the investigation issue is over,
Why influential members of the government phoned certain foreign government asking help in case Bangladesh Army revolts against the ruling party,
Why Awami League leader Mohiuddin Khan Alamgir tried to flee the country on February 27,
Why minister Faruk Khan said, militants have penetrated in law enforcing and disciplined forces in Bangladesh,
Why the government is trying to keep the Inspector General of Police, whose son-in-law was murdered during the mutiny and daughter held hostage, is kept aloof from the investigation process,
Why the newly appointed commissioner of police warned the English medium and missionary schools and educational institutions of possible militant attack without any reason,
Why the PM did not allow the army to storm in to the BDR headquarters to rescue the officers and their family members,
What the CID team were removing from the BDR headquarters in the name of collecting 'evidence',
What type of evidences were removed by the members of police when they were assigned to guard the BDR headquarters almost for more than 30 hours,
Why the Home Minister and other members of the ruling Alliance were visiting the BDR headquarters during dark hours of February 26, much after the surrender,
Why Awami League student wing leader Liakat Sikder is hiding since the massacre,
Why Awami League and its activists are continuing to demand trial of killers and their collaborators in civil courts instead of Court Martial,
Why a section of pro-Awami League journalists are continuing indirect campaign against army as well demanding trial in civil court,
Why the ruling party is echoing the voice of Indian media and especially the editorial commentary in The Statesman.
Reply to all these questions will surely help investigators in finding the truth and identifying the culprits. But, it is a big question as to whether the ruling party is willing to let a neutral investigation continue, which may go ultimately against many of the heavy-weights within their home.
Bangladeshi people are getting united with the demand of proper investigation and exemplary punishment to the perpetrators and collaborators of this extreme heinous crime. Anger within the armed forces is boiling like eruptive volcano. Members of the armed forces and those bereaved families can never forgive the killers and the collaborators.
People in power in Dhaka should understand this clearly!
