Wow, so Indians are saying that Bangladeshis (their allegation) deserve to be murdered and their bodies danced on. LaRgEsT DeMocRacY iN tHe WoRlD........

Most people who supported the Taliban do so because they're happy that the US lost. Very few of their supporters would ever want Talibani style rules in their own country.

To be fair, Israelis are not forbidding Israeli girls and women from education, destroying their own universities, government and educational institutions, and setting their own people to be a poor, weak and ignorant nation. Any sane country (including Muslim countries) would rather normalize...

The Bangladesh arms industry is in its absolute infancy. Some military-owned factories manufacture small arms and ammunition under license, and assemble some vehicles. Bangladesh doesn't have any indigenous design for any arms as far as I know. However the government has recently started to...

Bangladesh had a troublesome Islamist party named Jamat-e-Islami. They couldn't win any votes above 5-10% but played a negative role in radicalizing the people through propaganda. The current ruling secular-nationalist party Awami League came into power in 2009 and used their controversial role...

The ancient Greeks had a homosexual unit, the "Sacred Band", it was reportedly their best unit.

Its over. The Taliban have gotten what they have fought for. Now to see what they do with power.
