Bangabandu, Vs. Mousalini of Italy, Striking Similarities: Please Read!
Abid Bahar
 
Shahidul Alam's analysis of Bangabandu's Fourth Amendment stated below is correct but  is only the tip of Bangabandu's "dictatorship." The use of Mujib dress, Mujib Bahini, lal bahini, rakhi bahini and other paramilitary forces, the extreme hero-worship tendency among its followers, indiscriminate killing of the opponents, arresting even elderly statesman Bhasani, favouratism to its party members,  I found so many other similarities with Mousalini, the Italian leader and Spain's Francisco that when I found out I personally  was shocked (I was a former Mujib -lover)and have been writing eversince about the sickness. 
 
 I asked myself, howcome so many similarities in a country far away from Europe. The answer I found is in political Science such a political trend is called Fascism. Mousalini even did similar things like Bangabandu did, the latter standing in the parliament, declared that he couldn't use "Lal Ghora,"which he actually did but he wanted it to be more severe on the opponents. 
 
There are so many similarities between Bangabandu's BAKSAL and Sadam's bath party, their boys carrying guns at the university, and now Africa's Mugabe a former freedom fighter, IDI Amin, another freedom fighter, it is unthinkable. Unlike them, after the 7th March Speech, Bangabandu actually collaborated with the Pak Army and stayed the entire period in Pakistan. He never talked about why did he surrender.  If Bangabandu's AL didn't have the theoritical backing/blessings from our West Bengali and the Delhi based Dadas that AL is a "progressive force", civil  society, fighting against Nizami, Bangabandu the father etc, etc.propaganda by the pro-Indian powerful media, he would be labelled as one of the fighters for democracy who betrayed the nation to turn into a dictator. In Europe the above are called the Fascist leaders.
 
For the sake of knowledge, Social Scientists have to identify this trend and the father of this trend in Bangladesh. It was this type of extremism that led to Mousalini's death, and the end of Francisco. Like Bangabandu, to unite people in the independent Bangladesh he also used extreme nationalism causing the alienation of the tribals.
 
Hasina carries the legacy of Bangabandu. Hasina's AL with its Shaschasevok bahini and its alliance (which is practically the BAKSAL) continues the trend..
Fascism's another characteristic is to give more importance to the party interest to gain power than give importance to national interest. Hasina's year round hartal to tire the nation, caused the cancellation of 1996 election that led to the first coming of the care-taker government and again in 2007 the chaos led to 1/11  and the army backed caretaker government. 
 
(1) Please check the following videos to see that until this trend is not discredited, Bangladesh will have no future! It is infactious, nowadays everybody is doing it.
(2) I want the readers to also check the similarities between Mujib and Mosoluni.  We live in an independent country, the Fascist chaos of madness against order must be stopped.

Subject: Sheikh Mujib: A people's dictator

 

I think Sheikh Mujib's biggest gift is "fourth amendment". He declared himself a president without election and without term limit. A president for life!

 

Life could be very short. If only he knew.

 

 

Pls read following from a research paper.

 

The fourth amendment has completely changed not only the body, but also the philosophy and character of the original constitution. Articles protecting citizen rights, liberties and freedom are now riddled with limitations, exceptions and qualifications. Parliament Passed the Fourth Amendment without any debate. All 294 members voted in favor. It took less than an hour, to change the physical and philosophical character of the whole constitution. This amendment:

 

(1) changed the system of government,

(2) empowered the President to appoint Ministers who are not Parliament Member.

(3) made the Prime Minister into the President and Members of the Parliament was deemed to be elected by the people,

(4) stated that parliament members elected today shall continue for a term of five years,

(5) no term limit was placed on the President,

(6) Made the impeachment procedure to remove the President, but made the

procedure so difficult that it would make impeachment nearly impossible,

(7) stated that the impeachment of the President will need the assent of two-thirds members and the impeachment will need three-fourths members of the Parliament,

(8) restored the absolute veto power of the President;

(9) created the post of a Vice President,

(10) gave the President power to appoint a Vice President,

(11) stated that a Council of Ministers will be responsible to the President,

(12) Curtailed the independence of the judiciary and took away the power of the Judicial branch to enforce fundamental rights,

(13) President to appoint and remove the Chief Justice, High Court Judges, Judicial Officers and magistrates;

(14) abolished all Political Parties and introduced one party system;

(15) politicized civil servants,

(16) created Compulsory Village Cooperative Society,

(17) curtailed fundamental rights, liberties and freedom of the Press,

(18) Increased the number of districts to 61 and empowered the President to appoint Governors in each district.

 

The fourth amendment is in effect a new constitution altogether. This amendment effectively eliminated all signs of "separation of power". It centralized all power, without any checks and balances, in the hands of the President. It made the Parliament a "rubber-stamp body", a body made up of "elective representatives" in theory but "unrepresentative" in reality.
