What do you think of Gen. Waker-uz-Zaman's statement that "the Bangladesh Army will always stand by the people"?

The thing is, I don't think Bangladesh Army has ever been in a war!

And how do they get to be of use to their Nation in peace, u ask?

Mark this!

Hence the move by Zaman to oust Sheikh Hasina.

What we have seen are merely the opening shots of a long period of gloom and doom in Bangladesh, thanks to its 'well-meaning', 1.6 Lac strong army.

While size of an army by itself is not a metric to pass judgments, but what I found really interesting was what Bangladesh Army would do with such large numbers

Let us see the motto of the Bangladesh Army to see what they want to use those 1,60,000 troops for.

Meanwhile, the yahoos are now begging for Indian Visas!

Or what exactly can it do?

Well .. the first coup that they did was in 1975 wherein they even murdered the Father of the Nation, Mujib!

I do not put it past the Bangladesh Army to have had alternate and surreptitious channels of communication with their Chinese masters whom they dream of faithfully serving some day, even if at the cost of wet undergarments!

Are the seasons in Ireland different from those in Scotland, England, and Wales? Or are they just milder versions of each other?

I say it with some conviction that the utopian thought of Bangladeshi tanks and infantry rolling up Siliguri is not just a flight of fancy.

And yet again, just a few weeks ago came yet another statement by the Bangladesh Army Chief that instead of a coup, the democratically elected Prime Minister had 'chosen' to step down and that a new govt would soon take over!

What triggered this coup in the first place, when things were relatively good for the Bangladesh Army?

Why all the fuss about Trump’s policy initiatives? Isn’t he just trying to set a moral tone for the Republican Party to make America great again?

Btw, do notice in the above tweet that the handle quoted there still calls it the Md Yunus Interim Govt.

More than the event itself, it was the mention of Bangladesh Army that got me thinking.

They continued 'serving' their country in peace with coups and even counter-coups in:

First thing I did was to go to the Wikipedia page of Bangladesh Army to confirm a hunch.

How do police officers feel about the fear they instill into criminals?

Just look at the inventory of the Bangladesh Army and you will be surprised at the sheer amount of Chinese hardware!

Make no mistake, the Bangladesh Army has always had its sights set on the ultimate goal - To rule over Bangladesh, and 'Make Bangladesh Great Again' (to paraphrase Shri Donald Trump's slogan!)!

And chaos is already underway all over again!

Hope this chain of thoughts made some sense.

What is your craziest college sex story?

1981

As the dust settles (figuratively) in the immediate aftermath of this 'revolution' and the flood waters drain out, will come the business of governing this chaotic country and more than that, managing the ambitions of those within the army itself.

The yahoos let lose against the previous govt are now demanding INSTANT results from the new govt headed by the Nobel Laureate!

1975 (First Coup)

Then there is Myanmar and heck, Bangladesh itself till the time it remained under the boots of the previous dictators till 1990!

Another thing that will bolster my claim is a quick study of high and middle level military exchanges of Bangladesh with China and Pakistan!

Coming back to the China angle ..

But what happened after the diplomatic spat in all probability, was that the Chinese gave the order to their faithful minions of Bangladesh Army to pull the rug!

The Jamaat is already making itself felt in Bangladesh.

What this means is the Bangladesh has an army that is more than the combined strength of the British and German armies!

This fellow, Zaman is a bit 'smarter' than his predecessors in the Coup Business of Bangladesh Army, you see .. instead of directly becoming the dictator, he chose to plant a near senile 84-year old Nobel Laureate as the fall guy who will take the blame when chaos erupts again!

Still unstructured. Let's see how it goes ..

In fact, let me do that for you!

Fact remains that when reality dawns, all that they will have to show for it is wet underwears and nothing else!

But coming back.

The motto says: In War, In Peace, We are everywhere for our Nation.

Surprisingly (not really!), it is the CHIEF who decides to come out in full, imposing military uniform and declares that Aal Eez Well!!

But there is one observation I have ..

Sharing a chain of thoughts.

Kudos to whoever came up with it!

And what does an army that needs to rule a country do, especially in case of 'pious' countries and 'pious' armies of the Indian Sub-Continent such as Pakistan and Bangladesh?

Nice, no?

But they can always dream, no?

Unless, they plan to play faithful minions to the Chinese in case of a war across the Himalayas!

If you believe anything else, then I have a white coloured building in Agra to sell to you!

By letting lose the Ansar Bahini Paramilitary on their very students, Zaman has already shown his intent.

This tweet landed on my TL some time back.

To put things in context and why I found it amusing, I will just give a comparison with the British and the German Armies, sourced from Wikipedia itself.

What truly transpired in that visit is anyone's guess.

And Thank God for that!

Same for their Air Force and Navy!

Because I doubt what they would do in case of a war with India, or for that matter, even with Myanmar, given their tenuous link with Chittagong Hill Tracts via Feni!

The 84 year-old Nobel Laureate probably would have been snoozing at that time when a statement needed to be made, right?

I wouldn't be surprised if it has actually been jointly wargamed between China and Bangladesh.

What we are seeing in Bangladesh today is the return of the erstwhile West Pakistani Occupation Army, but this time in the form of Bangladeshi natives doing the dirty job of repressing and depriving their own people.

Like I said earlier in this thread, Md Yunus is merely being set-up to take the blame when things go irretrievably South.

Well, on its own .. ZILCH!

It gives them an alibi of being of 'use' to their Nation during peace, since war is a far-fetched dream!

With this, I conclude this short thread.

Zia and Musharraf did that in Pakistan.

Now THAT would be a thing to watch .. how long Zaman manages to hang on to the power from behind the curtains and how fast Bangladesh goes to dogs, literally, because figuratively, it already has!

And it gives them an alibi!

There is reason to why I believe that.

But then, what are the chances of a Himalayan War and in it, Bangladesh Army faithfully carrying out their Cheeni Master's orders of marching into the Siliguri Corridor, that too with any reasonable chances of success?

Well, they use rabid, extremist Islamists to give them a fig-leaf of democratic credentials!

A very impressive motto, I must say.

Well, all those rosy stories about Bangladesh becoming an economic 'miracle' can be filed away in a safe locker for the next couple of decades atleast.

THIS, folks, is what a 1.60 Lac army is good for in a country like Bangladesh: To rule over the hoi-polloi.

I am sure the figures will spring up quite a few surprises

What comes next?

On that note, do look up a map of Bangladesh and look for Feni.

How's that for 'serving' your country in peace, huh?

And true to my expectations, I saw the size of Bangladesh Army to be 160,000 troops!

Previous Bangladesh Army Coup Chiefs did the same.

And now the release of yet another extremist that actually triggered this thread!

:Fin:

So what exactly, does the 160,000 strong Bangladesh Army seek to do in case of a war?

That said, they are free to dream all the wet dreams they want to.
