#1 Stated in article: "It is no secret that a number of pro-Palestine members of the US government had common cause with the Jamaat, and certainly benefited from funding and lobbying support among the small but influential Bangladeshi-American community, particularly on the East and West coasts of America."
An interesting comment especially since at various times the Jammat has been outlawed in Bangladesh and is itself, historically, a member of the radical Islamist movement chartered at Lahore in 1990. It has not shed its Islamist cloak.

#2 long article barely mentions the 1971 issue.

There was in that year what is generally considered a genocide by the Pakistan Army and its allies against Bengali Hindus. About 1 M were killed and about 300k were raped.
