A Plea for Bangladesh -
Subject: Bangladesh’s Descent into Anarchy under Yunus — The World’s Silence Is Painful
To the Conscience of Humanity,
Bangladesh writhes under the savagery unleashed by Nobel laureate Dr. Muhammad Yunus. Millions face an impossible choice: death, exile, or submission to radical extremism.
On August 5, 2024, the nation experienced one of its darkest hours—a meticulously coordinated terrorist onslaught that shattered its foundations by overthrowing the legitimate government of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. As the country burned and order collapsed, Muhammad Yunus emerged as the usurper.
How will it go down in history? Perhaps the most devastatingly successful act of terror—one that reshaped an entire nation overnight.
The Rise of a Terrorist Movement: A Calculated Plan
For years, digital terrorists such as Pinaki Bhattacharya and Elias Hossain have exploited Western countries as platforms for radicalization and manipulation. They have waged an online war against Bangladesh’s government, spreading disinformation and inciting unrest. Just look at how Pinaki, from France, and Elias, from the U.S., orchestrated the destruction of the Bangabandhu Memorial Museum online—an act of sheer brutality and criminality.
Meanwhile, jihadists like Farhad Mazhar and Zahedur Rahman have thrived inside Bangladesh, abusing Sheikh Hasina’s commitment to free speech. Their propaganda fuels extremist hatred against Hindus and India, simply because Hindus feel safe under her rule.
Their fabrications have transformed anti-India sentiment into a psychological disorder among Muslims in Bangladesh who are susceptible to radicalization.
Under Muhammad Yunus’s regime, the media has been both servile and silenced. Brutalities have unfolded daily—hidden from the world. The extremists have convinced Bangladeshis that the West no longer takes Islamic terrorism seriously—giving radicals free rein. And so far, they have been proven correct.
The Destruction of Bangladesh’s Identity
These jihadists have already uprooted Bangladesh’s secular and cultural identity, erasing its history and traditions—under Yunus’s direct supervision.
They haven’t just destroyed museums, murals, sculptures and cultural symbols; they’ve razed hundreds of Sufi shrines and Hindu temples. Under Yunus’s rule, few countries oppress women more. Minorities and secularists live in constant fear, while Hizb ut-Tahrir, IS, and Al-Qaeda flaunt their red and black flags, openly demanding Islamic theocracy. The July–August terrorists came straight from their ranks.
But Yunus didn’t just shield them—he empowered them. His government includes terrorists as ministers, and those he couldn’t install, he patronized—allowing them to form a political party.
As Bangladesh’s Ambassador to Morocco, I was singled out. My ‘crime’? Writing a Bengali novel about Bongobondhu’s early years (1920–1942)—entirely unrelated to later events. Yunus’s hatred for our history isn’t mere contempt. It’s a deliberate, calculated attempt to erase Bangladesh’s very foundation.
Since Its Birth: Secularism vs. Persistent Extremism
Bangladesh was born secular, but from its first breath, Islamists and jihadists conspired to tear it apart. The country’s founding father, Bongobondhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, believed in reconciliation, hoping they would embrace the ideals of the Liberation War. They did not. Instead, they murdered him in cold blood.
Decades later, his daughter, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, took a similarly tolerant approach. But in the end, she too fell—to the same extremists who had spent years weaving deception into the nation’s fabric, only to strike with barbaric force.
If human rights violations were truly examined, an independent, impartial investigation would reveal a horrifying truth: the atrocities committed in just 15 days after her ouster—under Yunus’s protection—far exceeded those of her entire tenure.
In those two weeks, Bangladesh descended into terror. Mobs lynched hundreds of police personnel—pregnant women begged for mercy, only to be slaughtered. Hundreds of Awami League supporters were beaten to death, their bodies left as warnings. Such barbarity, on such a massive scale, has not been seen in centuries.
This exposes a hard truth: while Bangladeshi secularists repeatedly sought compromise, jihadists never wavered in their mission to annihilate them. Under Muhammad Yunus, that mission accelerated.
The brutality under Yunus makes one truth inescapable: Only Sheikh Hasina stands between Bangladesh and complete theocratic rule.
Sheikh Hasina vs. Yunus
When Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s government prosecuted Yunus for corruption, he painted himself as a victim—and the world believed him.
But make no mistake: none of these charges were false. One could argue that others committing similar offenses went unpunished, but that does not absolve Yunus of his crimes.
His greed knew no bounds. Once in power, he wiped his slate clean—escaping justice and dodging 6630 million Bangladeshi Taka in just one case.
The Unquestioned Shield of Muhammad Yunus
Yunus’s goons rampage across Bangladesh, taunting its forsaken people. 'You can’t picture Yunus as a terrorist—the world won’t buy it. Everyone who matters knows him.' So far, they’ve been right, and that only deepens the cruelty. They burn, lynch, and brutalize—while we, the victims, remain voiceless, invisible.
Since seizing control, Yunus has torn off his mask—revealing not a reformer, but a tyrant cloaked in deception. His latest deception? Claiming Sheikh Hasina left Bangladesh “like Gaza”—a calculated, insidious lie to inflame his radical Islamist base.
While Sheikh Hasina painstakingly built Bangladesh, Yunus has waged war against it. He has sabotaged its economy, incited riots, and empowered extremists, dragging the nation toward civil war.
Yunus’s Endorsement of Terrorism
But the betrayal runs deeper.
Yunus himself introduced one of the terrorists, Mahfuj Alam, in New York—standing in the presence of former U.S. President Bill Clinton—and presented him as the mastermind of the July-August terrorist attacks.
This demands an answer from the free world:
How would the French react if someone openly celebrated a terrorist responsible for the Charlie Hebdo massacre? How would Americans react if the mastermind of 9/11 were honored in New York, just as Yunus did? Bangladesh felt the same outrage, the same deep sense of injury and humiliation. This was not just an insult to our nation but an affront to justice itself.
The Enigma of Yunus: Garment Workers vs. Grameen Bank Borrowers
When a garment worker in Bangladesh faces poor working conditions, the West erupts in outrage.
But Yunus’s Grameen Bank—built on an even more exploitative model—is hailed as a savior.
Consider this: A garment worker toils in hardship, but she does not carry the weight of debt.
A Grameen borrower, however, takes a loan—then another, and another—trapped in an endless cycle of repayment. She must work harder than any factory laborer, not just to survive, but to outrun a debt disguised as empowerment.
Yet, the West glorifies Yunus while scrutinizing every garment factory mishap.
A Final Appeal
I could cite hundreds of examples of the terrors Yunus unleashed. Yet, this is no rhetoric—every claim here is public and provable. Ignoring the truth won’t erase it.
The West bears a double responsibility in restraining Yunus—he rose to prominence as their protégé. Has a Nobel laureate ever presided over such barbarity in history?
History will remember Yunus, but not as a hero—only as a swindler who deceived the world and descended into terror. In betraying his own nation, he also disgraced those in the West who still champion him.
Yet, this is not a diplomatic note. It is the raw, urgent cry of a man whose country has been stolen, whose life has been shattered—punished by Yunus’s regime for the simple act of writing, for daring to remember history, for remaining loyal to the truth. Today, I am voiceless, a persecuted diplomat, an exiled novelist pleading from the wilderness. But tomorrow, it may be your silence, your apathy, that history condemns. Listen now—not just to me, but to the silenced millions whose cries Muhammad Yunus has drowned in blood and lie.
