'Save country from those against Islam'
2013-03-10
[Bangla Daily Star] Jatiya Party Chairman HM Ershad yesterday called upon people to save the country from those "speaking against Islam and Prophet Muhammad (SM)".

"The country is now in the intensive care unit and its condition is critical. Those who are talking against Islam and the Prophet (SM) have to be put down to save the country," he said.

The JP chief was addressing a gathering after visiting the shrine of Hazrat Kayed Saheb at Nesarabad in Jhalakathi.

He asked the government to stop what he said was shooting people indiscriminately. "Killing of innocent people would not help it [government] stay in power forever," he added.

Making an oblique reference to Shahbagh protesters, Ershad said people of all religions must stand united against those "trying to destroy religious values".

He also said if voted to power, he would provide water and electricity to all mosques and temples free of charges.
And a chicken in every pot and a pony. Mustn't for get the pony.
JP Secretary General ABM Ruhul Amin Howlader and Joint Secretary General Rezaul Islam Bhuiyan were present at the gathering.

#3  Oh boy, I think they need to save the country FROM the Islamists.

It seems they spend a great deal of time creating havoc aimed at some other Moslem with whom they disagree.

#2  The older I get the more I am convinced that man's evil, hate, and genocide are little more than tools of natural selection exercised by [as the late Joseph Campbell wrote] mutually contending bands.
