Bangladesh Bombing
Rubber Hose wonders why there isn’t more interest in the 400 bombs set off in Bangladesh.
The World Today on the BBC World Service has been reporting on it and posting things like Bangladesh bombs suspect arrested.
The interesting thing in the reporting is that the Bangladeshi government has been downplaying the problem of Muslim extremists in the country. This attitude has angered just about everyone following the controlled explosions.
The Islamic political parties are saying that the government can’t start attacking them having said there was no problem for years. The secular opposition party says that the government was too incompetent to deal with the problem so they ignored it.
It’s nice to know that we aren’t the country in the world with a government disconnected from reality.
