Talk:Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami

I shifted the page here from Bangladesh Islamic Assembly, since the English form of the name is never used. English language media in Bangladesh and abroad refer to the party as "Jamaat". The history of the article can be found here. --Soman 23:22, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Jamaat's Role in the Liberation War

As far as I'm concerned Rajakar was formed by the Pakistani Army. Would the author look into this please?

Edit by wisesabre

I have removed link Gun culture in Pakistan. this link had nothing to do with the article.
and also removed 'is alleged to be a part of the Al-Qaeda network.' because there is no proof of it.You should provide any reasonable proof about this statement.الثاقب (WiseSabre| talk) 15:59, 3 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

No Politics here please

Do not play the game of politics here, please. Only include what you know for sure. Specially linking Jamaat with bombings and then AL with attacking their own office, well, that is just trying to play down each other. Conspiracy theories should go under the 'conspiracy theory' section, not under normal headings.

Sources?

There's a lot of assertion in the article, and a distinct lack of sources. Could someone provide these, before this turns into a full-on POV dispute? Alai 17:54, 11 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

This is a partisan/partial entry

Having seen the evolution of this page, starting off as an Awami League rant, I doubt the authenticity of this page. No sources, libelous assertions, and basically a charge sheet of the Jamaat. Note this page and the Awami League page

Restoring NPOV

This article is full of shit. I have removed all false allegations against Jamaat to restore NPOV.

"non-Islamic political process such as democracy"

Democracy is not a non-islamic process.

"government which establishes and condones non-Islamic law"

Subjective statement. Non-Islamic laws are not established or condoned here in Bangladesh.

"non-Islamic nationalist and socialist political outfits such as the BNP and the Jatiya Party"

False statements. Who says they are non-Islamic?

"Jamaat ... overtly nationalistic party, whose views and expressions parallel that of Pakistani socialism"

False statements. Period.

"uses the name of Islam as a political facade"

Subjective statement. According to the party manifesto, it wants to ESTABLISH Islam, not to use it. It is clear that "establishing Islam itself in the society" and "using Islam to gain power" are quiet different things.

"however have been ignored by the current government"

Confusing statement. The current government is no authority to deny such allegations.

"Jamaat's political branch in Pakistan"

JI Bangladesh and JI Pakistan are independent organisations. They are not branches as there is no instrumental link. Both however, are subscriber of same ideology.

" Rajakar also raped women aged upto 60. At least 10,000 women were raped by them. Children born by this were taken taken to Mother Teresa's Missionaries of Charity at calcutta or adopted by Canada-US-Europe families."

Such historical claims require citation of historic documents and references.

"... victims were young ..."

And old, too.

several Jamaat leaders fled to West Pakistan. Golam Azam fled on 3rd December

False statement. No Jamaat leader fled to EP. Golam Azam came to Dhaka from London. But he was not allowed an entry here. Then he flew to Pakistan as he only had a Pakistani passport to claim his citizenship.

"introduced multiparty democracy in order to use Islamic sentiment to country"

LOL! How come democracy can be introduces to "use" Islamic sentiment?

"... still has strong ties with Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan ... mastermind behind a series of deadly terrorist attacks ... against ... foregners and minorities ..."

False statements. These are not qualified even as allegations!
