[chottala.com] GLOBAL HUNT OVER PADMA SCAM

GLOBAL HUNT OVER PADMA SCAM

M. Shahidul Islam in Toronto

North American investigators have now gone beyond the allegedly direct
perpetrators, already charged, and the suspect beneficiaries of the
bribery scandal of conspiracy to collude in over billing of works in
Padma Bridge and reported advance payment to the tune of $35 million
by Montreal-based Canadian Consultancy firm SNC-Lavalin. They are now
digging into the background and character of suspected distant
beneficiaries and sources of finance of asset-building and transfers
of all possible beneficiaries or indirect.

A distant beneficiary's police records of minor nature have also been dug up.
The records, as learnt from a reliable source, show that the distant
suspect was arrested on June 14, 1998 in Tarrant County, Texas, and
charged on two counts of carrying an unlicensed handgun and one count
of driving while intoxicated; followed by a conviction for drunken
driving, imprisonment for 120 days, sentenced to 24 months of
probation and $500 fine. He was also charged on February 6, 2000 with
reckless driving and possessing a radar detector in Hanover County,
Virginia; followed by one day incarceration and fine. He was again
arrested on March 19, 2000 and charged with reckless driving in
Fairfax County, Virginia; followed by a suspended 30-day jail sentence
and 12 months probation along with a $400 fine. Next he was charged on
April 29, 2001 with speeding in Rappahannock County, Virginia. After a
gap of 3 years he was again charged on May 20, 2004 with speeding in
Arlington County, Virginia. It is unclear what relevance these records
may have with the SNC-Lavalin case.

More relevant to the case might be the fact that a suspect with very
high-level connections in Bangladesh and her spouse have been involved
in high-spending dubious dealings over the following assets.

1. A single family home at 456 North Bay Point Way, Jacksonville,
Florida; purchased from previous joint owners Merrill and Priscilla
King.
2. A single family home at 845 York Way, Maitland, Florida; purchased
from previous joint owners David and Elizabeth Cocchiarella.
3. A single family home at 2065 W 119th Avenue, Miramar, Florida;
purchased from Pulte Home Corporation.

Investigators are also tracing the source of funds used for paying
outstanding mortgages for two luxurious homes owned by the same
people: one at 3817 Bell Manor Court, Falls Church, Virginia, and, the
other at 4823 Martin Street, Alexandria. In addition, assets of about
half- a- dozen corporate entities owned by the same people are being
looked into under the ongoing probe into the alleged kickbacks from
the Padma bridge scam and possible other corrupt practices.

[chottala.com] Sheikh Mujibur Rahaman�s Secret Visit to Agartala





 
 

January 11, 2012

Sheikh Mujibur Rahaman�s Secret Visit to Agartala

Sheikh Hasina�s visit to Agartala on Wednesday will occasion a trip down memory lane for three elderly men who can still remember how fifty years ago her father Sheikh Mujibur Rahaman made a secret foray into this city after crossing over to Khowai in West Tripura district-for the first and the last time to meet the then Chief Minister Sachindra Lal Singha. Only a few top-notch in the administration knew about the secret visit and fewer still knew that he spent a full November night in Agartala Central Jail. And that visit was five years before famous Agartala Conspiracy Case of 1968 which ultimately set the stage for the Bangladesh Liberation War. Of course, Sheikh Mujibur Rahaman was not involved in the Agartala Conspiracy Case-though he was implicated and made Accused No-1 � but at that time he did not come to Tripura.

He came only once and that was in 1963.�Though the specifics of his meetings with Sachindra Lal Singha will never be known because both Singha and Mujib are long dead and gone, there is no doubt that the �Bangabandhu� was testing the waters to secure Indian help for his cause.��Yes, of course I have seen Sheikh Mujib when he came to Khowai. But that was long ago, perhaps 50 years ago. I was then employed in the SDO office and I saw Sheikh Saheb entering into the SDO Sir�s residence, part of which was his office then�, said the 86 years old man as he sat straight on his bed.�Satya Deb, a former Class IV staff of Smarajit Chakrabarty, the then Sub Divisional Officer of Khowai, West Tripura is among the three living men who had seen Sheikh Mujibur Rahaman during that secret trip to Tripura.�It was if I correctly remember in November 1963-according to some it was cool November 3 afternoon-when Sheikh Mujib crossed over the border�, said Arun Bhattacharjee, then a clerk at the SDO Khowai office.
�The way all involved maintained hush-hush and the alacrity in which the entire visit was handled it became clear to us that it was a top secret visit by Sheikh Mujib. Then SDO was Smarajit Chakrabarty and evidently he was alerted by the higher ups. Sheikh Mujib crossed the border through tea estate in the afternoon along with three persons. Then we did have only two jeeps, one belonged to SDO and one to BDO.��It was indeed a top secret visit of Sheikh Mujib to India believed to have been for seeking New Delhi�s help for some sort of movement that Bangabandhu was planning even as early as in 1963. He had met the then Chief Minister Sachindra Lal Singha, who was his friend, and had asked him to help in this regard.��I remember SDO Sir asked the then Khowai police station OC Sudarshan Kar to remain alert and then went off to receive him in the border without saying anything to anyone. Within half an hour the SDO came back with his jeep TRA 54. And he was accompanied by three others, one among them was Sheikh Mujib�, said Bhattacharjee, who can still clearly remember the visit.The jeep went straight to Chakrabarty�s office and they just slipped hurriedly into first the SDO office and then at the back of the office in his Chakrabarty�s drawing room. �It was then I saw Sheikh Saheb. He was wearing Punjabi Pyjama and a shawl was wrapped around his upper part. He was a tall man. I saw three others but did not recognize them�, said Satya Deb. Some sources said, Mujib was then accompanied by editor of Ittefaq newspaper of the then East Pakistan Tofazzul Hussain and two other reporters.�Abhijit Chakrabarty, youngest son of the SDO said, �my mother Rama Chakrabarty told me she had prepared coffee for them�.Soon Sachindra Lal Singh�s younger brother Umesh Chandra Singh arrived Khowai as speacial emmisery of the Chief MInister and immediately all of them in two jeeps � one of them of the SDO and one of the BDO sped towards Agartala.
�Interestingly driver of SDO�s jeep Haripada Das came to our headclerk Birendra Kumar Bhattacharjee and requested him for some money as he would need to buy petrol as he would have to take �some Bangladeshi VIPs� to Agartala. �God knows how many times I have to run. so I need some money for petrol, Haripada told the head clerk who in turn told the cashier to give him the money, said Bhattacharjee.��I still remember soon after Sheikh Mujib crossed over there were hectic military movements in East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) border. We could see Pakistani military and para-military jeeps wildly moving and deployment being done. Obviously they came to know Mujib would be crossing over to Tripura on some secret mission but they were late.�Mujib and his three associates arrived Agartala and went straight to Chief Minister�s residence at 12�30 am at night. Within a day seven more close associates also arrived in Agartala. In Agartala while Mujib was made a guest of Singh�s sister Hemangini Devi in Arundhuti Nagar. Others were housed in two other places- one being the Colonel Bari at the city heart. According to veteran journalist JItendra Paul, who was a close associate of Singh said the Chief Minister had got a call from Prime Minister Jawhar lal Nehru not to keep Mujib and others in his official residence and they might all have been �armed� and that they �sneaked; into Indian territory illegally.
It was after a series of discussions with Mujib, Tripura Chief Minister Sachindra Lal Singh accompanied by Chief Secretary B Raman flew to New Delhi to meet Prime Minister Jawhar Lal Nehru.�I met the Prime Minister personally as Chief Secretary stayed at the Foreign Secretary�s office chamber. We discussed Indian helps for Mujib�s movement. But Nehru was not ready at that moment since only one year ago we had Indo-China war�, according to a written statement given to a Bangladeshi reporter by Singh some months before his death. As the talks failed Mujib was visibly sad. But the problem arose as to how they should return home. Decision was taken that they would be pushed back. �I was then SDO Sadar (Agartala). At the instruction of the Chief Minister and Chief Secretary I received Mujib at a city area and took him Agartala Central Jail�, said KP Chakrabarty over telephone last year to this writer last year. As Mujib went to jail and a case for �intrusion� was registered against him, the then District Magistrate and SP met Mujib in jail.
�My father Nani Gopal Kar Bhowmik was the Superintendent of Jail and according to Jail code he was also present during the meeting. But he did not divulge me what transpired in the meeting�, said Manish Kar Bhowmik, and eminent senior layer of Gauhati High Court. �Chief Minister also came to meet Mujib in jail. But that at that time my father was not there. Mujib stayed a full night in Agartala Central jail and a sentry by the name of Abu Taher was posted to attend him�, Kar Bhowmik added. Next day Mujib and three of his companions were �officially� pushed them back to East Pakistan through Kamalasagar border crossing the Salda river. �This was the only time Sheikh Mujibur Rahaman came to Tripura. And it still remains a top secret and not many were at all aware.

My Comment: Bangladesh's judiciery under Hasina rule playing a "double standatrd" game. If any incident goes aghainst the interest of ruling regime or ruling party's cadre are involved in any incedent ,
their(Judges) hands arte tied but if government wants to punish the opposition they become most obedient servants of the government. In this'burning case case', Justice Naima Haider and Justice Mohammad Khurshid Alom Shaorker showed
enough courage to deny the government's wintention of sending the bus buring case to a rapid jusstice tribunal(Druto Bichar Adalat)
In another incedent ruling party's stident cadres burned the historic stident hall at Sylhet and no action has been taken not a single hostel burner chatro league
cadre was arrested not charged. My understanding is that , the Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina doesnot approve any action against her 'Golden Boys" who burned the Sylhets historic MC
College Hostel with impunity.
We Bangladeshis became used to to watch such double standard for the last three and half years of Awmi misrule. Inshallah good days are coming when Awami Jaheliot will end
in Bangladesh aghain.

BDR tragedy: the RAW connection!



From:

RAW-এর অগোচরে বাংলদেশের কোন ঘটনাই ঘটানো সম্ভব নয়। আর RAW জানা মানে AL জানা। আসলে BDR-বিদ্রোহ ঘটনা একটা সংবদ্ধ প্রচেষ্ঠার ফল। এখানে পুরো ঘটনার জরিত ইসরাইলী গোয়েন্দা সংস্থা মোসাদ, RAW, AL, এবং জেঃ মইন ইউ গংরা। এই বিদ্রোহ ঘটনার নিলনকশা তৈরী করেছে ইসরাইলী গোয়েন্দা সংস্থা মোসাদ। অনেক আগে থেকে শুরু করে ঘটনার প্রথম দিন পর্যন্ত তা বাস্তবায়নের কাজ করে গেছে RAW । তারা একটা সংগবদ্ধ কিলিং স্কোয়াড পাঠিয়েছিল। কিছু BDR জওয়ানদের সাথে নিয়ে ঐ কিলিং স্কোয়াড বেশিরভাগ হত্যাকান্ডের কাজ তারা প্রথম দিন দুপুরের মধ্যই সেরে ফেলে। হত্যাকান্ডের পর RAW-এর কিলিং স্কোয়াডটি আলোচনার নামে মন্ত্রী-এমপিদের সাথে আসা RAW-এর কালো কাঁচের শেড দেওয়া গাড়ীতে করে পালিয়ে যায়। এবং RAW-এর কাজ মূলতঃ এখানেই শেষ। এরপর আত্তসমর্পনের নামে নাটক শুরু হয়। এই নাটকের মধ্যদিয়ে সারা রাত থেকে শুরু করে পরদিন দুপুর দুইটার মধ্যেই ঘটনার সাথে সরাসরি জরিত BDR-রা পালিয়ে যায়। এদের পালানোর সুবিদার্থে পিলখানায় মন্ত্রী-এমপিদের ঘন ঘন আসা-যাওয়া, অযথা কালক্ষেপন এবং আশে-পাশে মিটিং মিছিলের ব্যবস্থা করা হয়। আর জে: মইন ইউ গংরা তার নিয়ন্ত্রিত গোয়েন্দা সংস্থাগুলোকে বহু আগে থেকেই রাজনিতিবীদদের পিছনে লাগিয়ে দিয়ে নিরবিঘ্নভাবে পরিকল্পনা বাস্তবায়নের সুযোগ করে দেয়। এবং পরিকল্পনামাফিক গত দুই-তিন মাসে কর্নেল গুলজারের মত বেশ কিছু চৌকশ ও দেশপ্রেমিক সেনা কর্মকর্তাকে BDR-এ বদলি করা হয়।বিদ্রোহের দ্বিতীয় দিনে তার নির্দেশে হাসিনার বাসভবনে সেনা মোতায়েন করা হয়। তার জানা ছিলো যে, তার এবং সরকারের বিরুদ্ধে হয়তো কু করার চেষ্টা হবে, তারপর পাল্টা কু হবে। এই কু-পাল্টা-কু এর মাঝখানে আরও অনেক সেনা অফিসার (হতে পারে সেটা এইবারের চেয়েও অনেক বেশি) মারা যাবে। এর মধ্যেই RAW-এর পরিকল্পনা মত একদল আর্মিদের হাতে খালেদা, মওদুদ আহমেদ এবং মাহমুদুর রহমানদের মত লোকদের হত্যা করা হবে। সাধারন জনগনকে বুঝানো হবে যে, আর্মির উপর প্রতিশোধ নেওয়ার জন্য BDR-বিদ্রোহ তারাই ঘটিয়েছে। যার কারনে বিক্ষুব্ধ সেনাসদস্যদের হাতে তাদের নিহত হতে হয়েছে। তারপর খালেদা হত্যাকান্ড ও কু-এর সাথে জরিত থাকার অভিযোগে অনেক সেনাসদস্যকে কোর্ট মার্শালের মাধ্যমে মৃত্যদন্ড দেওয়া হবে। এবং এরা হবে BDR বিদ্রোহে সেনা কর্মকর্তাদের মত সবাই দেশপ্রেমিক সেনা কর্মকর্তা। এইভাবেই বাস্তবায়ন ক্লিন করার কাজ।তারপর শুরু হবে রাজনৈতিক হানাহানি। সেটা নিয়ন্ত্রন করার জন্য Indian সেনাবাহীনির সাহায্য চাওয়া হবে। এর মাধ্যমে বাংলাদেশের পরিণতি হবে সিকিম। India এই পর্যন্ত সন্তষ্ট থাকতে চাইবে। কিনতু মোসাদ, সিআইএ তাদের পরিকলপনা আরও অনেকদুর এগিয়ে নিয়ে যাবে যার মাধ্যমে বাংলাদেশের সর্বশেষ পরিণতি হবে আফগানিস্তান।যাইহোক সেনাবাহিনীর দেশপ্রেমিক সেনাকর্মকর্তাদের চরম ধৈর্য ও বিচক্ষনতায় এই পরিকল্পনা শেষ পর্যন্ত বাস্তবায়ন করা সম্ভব হয়নি। তবে সেই সম্ভাবনা এখনো উরিয়ে দেওয়া যায়না।তবে এইবার খেলা অন্য স্টাইলে শুরু হয়েছে। তদন্ত তদন্ত খেলা। সেনা সদস্যরা চাইলেও জেঃ মইন থাকাকালীন BDR-বিদ্রোহের ঘটনার সুষ্ঠ তদন্ত কখনোই হবেনা। তদন্তের নামে প্রহশন হবে। প্রথমে জামাত-বিএনপি কে টার্গেট করা হবে। তাদের জরিত করা সম্ভব নাহলে শেষ পর্যন্ত JMB বা অন্য কোন আন্ডারগ্রাউন্ড সংগঠনকে দায়ী করা হবে। তারা খুশি হয়েই এই দায়দায়িত্ব নিতে চাইবে কারণ এরা মূলতঃ 'র'-মোসাদেরই সৃষ্ট। কাজেই সত্য ঘটনা কোনদিনই প্রকাশ পাবেনা। বরং হতাহত সেনাকর্মকর্তাদের পরিবারকে নগদ অনুদান, চাকরী, খাওয়া-পড়া ইত্যাদি ব্যবস্থা করার মাধ্যমে সেনাবাহিনীকে সন্তষ্ট রাখার চেষ্টা করা হবে। অন্যদিকে জনগনের দৃষ্টি ভিন্ন খাতে প্রসারিত করতে নতুন কোন ঘটনার জন্ম দেওয়া হবে।এরপর কথিত জংগী মোকাবেলার জন্য ভারতের সাথে টাস্কফোর্স গঠন আরও তরান্বিত হবে। এই ক্ষেত্রেও বাংলাদেশের অবধারিত পরিণতি আফগানিস্তান।অনেকে মনে করতে পারেন, নিজ দেশের সেনাবাহিনীর বিরুদ্ধে আওয়আমীলীগের এই ষড়যন্ত্রে জরিয়ে লাভ কি এবং এতবড় রিস্ক নেওয়ার ক্ষেত্রে তাদের যুক্তি কি। লাভ ও যুক্তি অবশ্যই আছে।ঘটনাচক্রে জেঃ মইনদের ষড়যন্ত্রের শিকার হয়ে সেনাবাহিনী AL-কে ক্ষমতায় নিয়ে আসলেও AL কোনদিনই সেনাবাহিনীকে তাদের বন্ধু মনে করেনা। বরং সবসময় তাদের হুমকী মনে করে। এই কারনেই ক্ষমতায় আসতে না আসতেই সংসদের প্রথম অধিবেশনেই সেনাবাহিনীর বিরুদ্ধে তারা অপমানজনক বীল পাশ করেছে, যাতে এই বারের ভুল সংশোধন করে পরবর্তী নির্বাচন সুষ্ঠ করার ক্ষেত্রে সেনাবাহিনী কোন ভুমিকা না নিতে পারে। আর তাছারা 2021 শাল পর্যন্ত ক্ষমতায় থাকতে হলে দরকার একটা লেংড়া নুলা সেনাবাহিনী ।নিহতদের পদ পুরনের মাধ্যমে সম্ভব হবে হাসিনার ছেলে জয়ের পরিকল্পনা অনুযায়ী গড়া সেই সেকুলার সেনাবাহিনী। অন্যদিকে নতুন অফিসার নিয়োগের মাধ্যমে রক্ষিবাহিনীর মত পোষা BDR বাহিনী। শুধু লাভ আর লাভ। আর এদিকে ভারতের সামনে আগ্গাবহ বাংলাদেশের হাতছানি। আমেরিকা-ইসরাইলের টার্গেট সব সম্ভাবনাময় মুসলিম দেশে সন্ত্রাসের বিরুদ্ধে যুদ্ধের বিস্তার ঘটানো। এবং আফগানিস্তান-ইরাক বানিয়ে তৈল-গ্যাস-বন্দর দখল করা। নিজ নিজ স্বার্থে সবাই যেন একই সূত্রে গাথা।আর ঝুকি নেওয়ার কথা বলছেন? ঝুকি নেওয়া আওয়ামীলিগের জন্য এক ধরনের নেশা। কমপক্ষে 2021 সাল পর্যন্ত ক্ষমতায় টিকে থাকতে তারা যেকোন ঝুকি নিতে প্রস্তুত। আর তারা ভাল করেই জানে সেনাবাহিনীর বর্তমান অসহায় অবস্থার কথা। জেঃ মইনরা খুবই দক্ষতার সাথে সেনাবাহিনীকে গনবিচ্ছিন্ন করেছে। তার চক্রান্তে সেনাবাহিনী সাধারণ জনগনসহ জাতীয়তাবাদীদের দীর্ঘদিনের আস্থা হারিয়েছে। এ অবস্থায় সেনাবাহিনী কোন ভাবেই তাদের উপর প্রতিশোধ পরায়ন হতে পারবেনা। তারপরেও যদি কিছু হ্য় তাহলে ভারত-আমেরিকা উদ্ধার করার জন্যতো আছেই। কাজেই চিন্তা কি।এ অবস্থায় সম্মানিত পাঠক ভেবে দেখুন আমাদের করনীয় কি? আসন্ন বিপর্যয়ের কবল থেকে আমাদের এই প্রিয় মাতৃভূমিকে রক্ষা করতে কি করা উচিত।

Declassified US documents on Bangladesh coups in 1975

We do not know what message the US Embassy in Dhaka had sent to the State Department after the Pilkhana massacre. We will have to wait for another 30 years to get full text of the official message from the US Embassy.

However, I can share with you the message the US Embassy in Dhaka had sent after the August 1975 coup. This declassified document confirms Sheikh Mujib was warned by the US about the coup but he simply brushed the information aside.

The Embassy also provided early analysis of the August 15 coup against President Mujibur Rahman. It tentatively predicted that the United States would enjoy greater influence under the government of new president Khondakar Mushtaque Ahmed.

The Embassy had also provided a narrative account and analysis of the military unrest and resulting coup of November 3, 1975.

-----------------------------------------------

Telegram 5470 From the Embassy in Bangladesh to the Department of State, November 10, 1975, 1010Z

1. IT MAY BE USEFUL TO OFFER A CAPSULE SUMMARY OF THE CHAOTIC EVENTS OF LAST WEEK IN BANGLADESH WHICH SAW THREE DIFFERENT GOVERNMENTS, MUCH KILLING, AND THE AVOIDANCE OF CIVIL WAR, WITH ATTENDANT POSSIBILITY OF INDIAN INTER-VENTION, BY THE NARROWEST OF MARGINS. THIS ACCOUNT IS SECRET. THE CONFRONTATION BETWEEN BRIGADIER MOSHARRAF, CHIE FOF THE ARMY GENERAL STAFF, WHO HAD BEEN EMBITTERED BY HIS FAILURE TO SHARE IN THE PROMOTIONS RECEIVED BY SOME OFHIS COLLEAGUES AFTER THE ASSASSINATION OF PRESIDENT MUJIB BY THE MAJORS ON AUGUST 15 AND WHO WAS ALSO BELIEVED TO BE ON A LIST OF ARMY OFFICERS TO BE INVESTIGATED WHICH HAD RECENTLY BEEN DRAWN UP BY THE MAJORS, BEGAN IN THE EARLYHOURS OF MONDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 3.

WE DO NOT KNOW POSITIVELY WHETHER MOSHARAFF WAS THE ARCHITECT OF THE CONFRONTATION, AS MANY CONTEND, OR WHETHER, AS ONE GOOD SOURCE HAS TOLD TOLD US, HE SIMPLY WENT ALONG WITH SUBORDINATES WHO WERE DETERMINED TO END THE SPECIAL ROLE OF THE MAJORS IN THE MOSHTAQUE GOVERNMENT, A ROLE WHICH HAD RESULTED, AMONG OTHER THINGS, IN THE HARRASSMENT OF SOME OF THE MILITARY OFFICERS. THIS SOURCE ALSO HELD THAT ONE OF MOSHARRAF'S OBJECTIVES--ALTHOUGH HE WAS UNDOUBTEDLY MINDFULOF THE PERSONAL GLORY THAT MIGHT AWAIT HIM--WAS TO TAKE CONTROL OF HIS SUBORDINATES' PLANS IN SUCH A WAY AS TO AVOID MAJOR BLOODSHED.

3. MOSHARRAF AND HIS ALLIES QUICKLY TOOK CONTROL EARLY MONDAY MORNING OF THE ARMY CANTONMENT AS WELL AS MOST OF THE CITY OF DACCA AND PRESSED THEIR CONFRONTATION WITH THE MOSHTAQUE GOVERNMENT BY FLYING A MIG FIGHTER AND ARMED HELICOPTER OVER THE CITY IN A SHOW OF STRENGTH WHICH WAS ALSO INTENDED TO INTIMIDATE THE TANK CREWS LOYAL TO THE GOVERNMENT. AGAINST THIS BACKGROUND, MOSHARRAF LEVIED FOUR DEMANDS ON MOSHTAQUE:

1) THAT MOSHARRAF REPLACE MAJOR GENERAL ZIAUR RAHMAN, HIS PERSONAL RIVAL, AS CHIEFOF STAFF; 2) THAT THE MAJORS BE RETURNED TO REGULAR ARMY DISCIPLINE; 3) THAT THE TANK FROCES LOYAL TO THE GOVERNMENT BE DISARMED; AND 4) THAT MOSHTAQUE REMAIN IN OFFICE.

OUTGUNNED AND APPARENTLY INTEND ABOVE ALL ON AVOIDING BLOODSHED, WHICH WOULD ALSO HAVE INVITED INDIAN INTERVENTION, MOSHTAQUE EVENTUALLY YIELDED AFTER NEGOTIATING DURING THE COURSE OF A LONG DAY A COMPROMISE WITH MOSHARRAF BY WHICH THE MAJORS AND SOME OF THEIR COLLEAGUES, TO WHOM MOSHTAQUE WAS INDEBTED FOR HIS PRESIDENCY, WERE PERMITTED

SECRET

SECRET PAGE 03 DACCA 05470 01 OF 02 101306Z

TO DEPART BANGLADESH.

BEFORE THIS COMPROMISE HAD BEEN REACHED, THE MOSHTAQUE GOVERNMENT HAD CALLED ON THE ARMY FORCES AT COMILLA TO COME TO ITS AID BUT HAD BEEN REFUSED ON THE GROUNDS THAT THE COMILLA COMMANDER WOULD ONLY RESPONDTO THE ORDERS OF THE CHIEF OF ARMY STAFF (WHO WAS THEN UNDER ARREST)OR THE CHIEF OF THE GENERAL STAFF (I.E., MOSHARRAF).

4. THE CONFRONTATION BROUGHT ANOTHER BLOODY RESULT WHICH,WE HAVE GOOD REASON TO BELIEVE, HAD BEEN PART OF AN EARLIER CONTINGENCY PLAN TO BE CARRIED OUT IN THE EVENT THAT MOSHTAQUE WERE TO BE KILLED, I.E., THE MURDER OF HIS FORMER COLLEAGUES IN THE AWAMI PARTY LEADERSHIP WHO WERE NOW HIS POLITICAL ENEMIES--FORMER PRIME MINISTER MANSOOR ALI,FORMER VICE PRESIDENT SYED NAZRUL ISLAM, FORMER PRIMEMINISTER, FINANCE MINISTER AND INDIOPHILE TAJUDDIN AHMED, AND FORMER INDUSTRIES MINISTER KAMARUZZAMAN. THESE LEADERS WERE KILLED, EVIDENTLY AT THE ORDER OF ONE OR MORE OF THE MAJORS, EARLY MONDAY MORNING AT DACCA JAIL. THE EVENT ADDED A NOTE OF MYSTERY TO MOSHARRAF'S ACQUIESCENCE LATER IN THE DAY TO THE DEPARTURE OF THE MAJORS, ONE VERSION HAVING IT THAT MOSHARRAF DID NOT YET KNOW OF THE DEED WHEN THE PLANE LEFT DACCA AT MIDNIGHT MONDAY.MANY OBSERVERS ALSO NOTED THAT ONE EFFECT OF THE MURDERS WAS TO REMOVE THE LOGICAL LEADERSHIP OF ANY PRO-INDIAN GOVERNMENT.

5. WITH THE EXPLOSIVE SITUATION DEFUSED TO A DEGREE BY THE DEPARTURE OF THE MAJORS, NEGOTIATIONS BETWEEN MOSHTAQUE AND MOSHARRAF CONTINUED ON TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY, RESULTING IN MOSHARRAF'S DESIGNATION AS CHIEF OF STAFF LATE TUESDAY NIGHT, AND EVENTUALLY IN MOSHTAQUE'S RESIGNATION EARLYTHURSDAY MORNING WITH THE SIMULTANEOUS ANNOUNCEMENT THATA NON-POLITICAL FIGURE, CHIEF JUSTICE A.S.M. SAYEM, WOULDBE APPOINTED PRESIDENT. SAYEM WAS SWORN IN ON THURSDAY AND PROMPTLY DISSOLVED THE PARLIAMENT. REPORTS, WHICH WE ACCEPT, WERE RIFE THAT THE CABINET HAD ALREADY RESIGNED IN PROTEST AGAINST THE MURDER OF THE FORMER GOVERNMENT LEADERS.

6. BUT IT NOW BECAME CLEAR THAT MOSHARRAF'S ASSUMPTION OF POWER IN THE ARMY WAS UNPALATABLE TO MOST OF HIS FELLOW SECRET

SECRET PAGE 04 DACCA 05470 01 OF 02 101306Z

OFFICERS AND ENLISTED RANKS, BOTH BECAUSE GENERAL ZIA EVIDENTLY HELD A MUCH WIDER POPULAR FOLLOWING AMONG THE MBUT ALSO, AND VERY IMPORTANTLY, BECAUSE MOSHARRAF WAS WIDELY SEEN, WHETHER ACCURATELY OR NOT, AS AN INSTRUMENT OF INDIAN POLICY. THIS PERCEPTION WAS BUTTRESSED BY THE PRO-MUJIB PROCESSION ON TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY'S HARTAL TO PROTEST THE KILLINGS AT DACCA JAIL. THE LOWER RANKS REVOLTED IN THE EARLY HOURS OF FRIDAY MORNING, QUICKLY OVERTHROWING THE MOSHARRAF FORCES AND, ACCORDING TO VIRTUALLY ALL ACCOUNTS, KILLING MOSHARRAF. EXTENSIVE FIRING WENT THROUGHOUT THE CITY ALL NIGHT AND ALL DURING THE DAY FRIDAY, MOST OF IT CELEBRATORY AFTER MOSHARRAF WAS OUESTED. ONE AUTHORITIATIVE SOURCE HAS TOLD US THAT ONLY ABOUT THIRTY WERE KILLED IN THE OVERTHROW; OTHER REPORTS HAVE REACHED US WHICH PUT THE FIGURE IN THE HUNDREDS.

7. THE SUCCESSFUL REVOLT OF THE LOWER RANKS NOW BROUGHT ANEW PROBLEM, THE RAMPANT INDISCIPLINE OF THE ENLISTED MEN,MANY OF WHOM NOW TURNED ON OFFICERS AGAINST WHOM THEY MIGH THAVE GRUDGES AND OTHERS BEGAN PRESENTING DEMANDS ON THE ARMY LEADERSHIP FOR A BETTER DEAL IN THEIR FUTURE TREATMENT.WIDESPREAD REPORTS WERE CURRENT THROUGHOUT THE WEEKEND THAT LARGE NUMBERS OF MILITARY OFFICERS HAD FLED OR WERE ATLEAST STAYING AWAY FROM THE CANTONMENT OUT OF FEAR OF THE RAMPAGING SEPOYS, AND SEVERAL REPORTS REACHED US OF THE MURDER OF MILITARY OFFICERS AND OF THEIR WIVES.

8. MEANWHILE THE POST-MOSHARRAF GOVERNMENT TOOK SHAPE IN A MEETING EARLY FRIDAY MORNING BETWEEN GENERAL ZIA,MOSHTAQUE AND PRESUMABLY OTHER PRINCIPAL AIDES. MOSHTAQUE WAS OFFERED THE PRESIDENCY A NEW BUT DECLINED ON THE GROUND THAT, IN THE STILL EXPLOSIVE SITUATION, THE COUNTRY REQUIRED A NON-POLITICAL, NON-CONTROVERSIAL PRESIDENT.CONSEQUENTLY THE DECISION WAS REACHED TO KEEP JUSTICE SAYEM IN THE PRESIDENCY AND TO TURN OVER TO HIM AS WELL THE FUNCTIONS OF CHIEF OF THE MARTIAL LAW ADMINISTRATION,

SECRET PAGE 02 DACCA 05470 02 OF 02 101246

A ROLE WHICH HAD BEEN FILLED BRIEFLY BY GENERAL ZIA. WEWERE POINTEDLY ASSURED THAT THESE ARRANGEMENTS ENJOYED FULL SUPPORT BOTH WITHIN THE MILITARY AND WITHIN THE POLITICAL LEADERSHIP SO THAT THE WAY WAS NOW CLEAR FOR THERESTORATION OF STABILITY IN THE COUNTRY.

9. AS OF MONDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 10, THE SITUATION HAD RETURNED TO AN APPARENT NORMALCY, WITH INTERNATIONAL AIR SERVICE RESUMED ON SUNDAY, BUT THE GENERAL UNEASINESS WAS STILL BEING FED BY REPORTS OF CONTINUED KILLINGS AMONG THE MILITARY AND OF POSSIBLE INDIAN ACTIONS ALONG THE BORDER.THE PROSPECT WAS FOR, AT BEST, A CONTINUED STATE OF TENSION AND UNCERTIANTY.

10. COMMENT. THREE CONCLUSIONS IMPLICIT IN THE ABOVE ACCOUNT SHOULD BE UNDERLINE. THE FIRST IS THAT THE ACTIONS OF THE MAIN PARTICIPANTS IN THE COUP AND COUNTER-COUP APPEAR TO HAVE BEEN NON-POLITICAL, EXCEPT IN THE SENSE THAT MOSHARRAF HAD THE ADDITIONAL DISADVANTAGE OF APPEARING TO BE PRO-INDIAN. THE ARMY FORCES WHICH OVERTHREW MOSHTAQUE AND THE MAJORS APPEAR TO HAVE ACTED PRIMARILY OUT OF A SENSE OF GRIEVANCE AGAINST THE MAJORS. THE COUNTER-COUP WAS THE WORK OF LOWER RANKS WHO FAR PREFERRED ZIA TO MOSHARRAF AND WHO WERE ALSO CONCERNED WHRE MOSHARRAF'S LOYALTYMIGHT LIE. WE HAVE NO REASON TO BELIEVE THAT ANY OF THE REGIMES OF THE PAST WEEK WERE ANTI-AMERICAN, PRO-INDIAN, OR PRO-SOVIET IN CHARACTER.

11. THE SECOND IS THAT WE HAVE NO EVIDENCE THAT INDIA WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY OF THE WEEK'S ACTIONS.

12. THE THIRD IS THE CONFIRMATION OF HOW STRONGLY AND PERVASIVELY ANTI-INDIA ANTIPATHIES ARE FELT HERE-FROM THE TOP OF THE LEADERSHIP TO THE LOWEST GROUPS OF THE SOCIETY. ALTHOUGH WE HAVE NO EVIDENCE THAT MOSHARRAF WAS PRO-INDIAN, AND SOME THAT HE WAS NOT, HE WAS WIDELY IDENTIFIED AS SUCH AND THE WILD CELEBRATIONS HERE OF HIS OVERTHROW CARRIED DISTINCTLY ANTI-INDIAN OVERTONES.

The Secretary’s 8:00 a.m. Staff Meeting
Friday, August 15, 1975

THE SECRETARY OF STATE - HENRY A. KISSINGER

P Mr. Sisco

AF Ambassador Mulcahy, Acting
ARA Mr. Rogers
EA Mr. Zurhellen, Acting
EUR Mr. Armitage, Acting

S/S Mr. Borg, Acting
S Mr. Bremer

SECRETARY KISSINGER: Let's talk about Bangladesh.

MR. ATHERTON: Well, it was a remarkably well-planned and executed coup for Bangladesh.

SECRETARY KISSINGER: What does that mean? Is Mujibur alive or dead?

MR. ATHERTON: Mujibur is dead; his immediate clique, which was largely family, nephews, brothers.

SECRETARY KISSINGER: I get good advice from INR.

MR. HYLAND: He wasn't dead when I talked to you.

SECRETARY KISSINGER: Really? Did they kill him after some period?

MR. ATHERTON: As far as we know -- I can't say we have got all the details. But the indications are that the plan was to kill him. And they simply surrounded his palace and went in and killed him. That is as far as we know now.

SECRETARY KISSINGER: Didn't we tell him that last year?

MR. ATHERTON: In March we had lots of indications --

SECRETARY KISSINGER: Didn't we tell him about it?

MR. ATHERTON: We told him at the time.

SECRETARY KISSINGER: Didn't we tell him who it was going to be, roughly?

MR. ATHERTON: I will have to check whether we gave him the names.

MR. HYLAND: We were a little imprecise on that.

MR. ATHERTON: He brushed it off, scoffed at it, said nobody would do a thing like that to him.

SECRETARY KISSINGER: He was one of the world's prize fools.

MR. ATHERTON: But it seems that the coup leaders are in complete control.

SECRETARY KISSINGER: Who are they?

MR. ATHERTON: They are military officers, middle and senior officers, who are generally considered less pro-Indian than the past leadership; pro-U.S., anti-Soviet.

SECRETARY KISSINGER: Absolutely inevitable.

MR. ATHERTON: Islamic. They have changed the name to the Islamic Republic --

SECRETARY KISSINGER: That they would be pro-U.S. was not inevitable. In fact, I would have thought at some turn of the wheel they were going to become pro-Chinese, and anti-Indian I firmly expected. I always knew India would rue the day that they made Bangladesh independent. I predicted that since '71.

MR. ATHERTON: I think our biggest problem is going to be to avoid too close an embrace.

SECRETARY KISSINGER: Why -- because they are friendly to us?

MR. ATHERTON: I think they are going to want us to come in with promises.

SECRETARY KISSINGER: The principle being we only embrace on the sub-continent those who oppose us. What is the principle?

MR. ATHERTON: I think our principle ought to be we are giving about all the aid we can really give or Bangladesh can really absorb.

SECRETARY KISSINGER: Before we implement it, let's check that. I know we can't do a huge increase in aid. But I think if people who think they are pro-U.S. come to us and then get a technical lecture that unfortunately we can't do any more -- there must be some maneuvering we can do on food aid and some token increase in aid.

MR. ENDERS: We can do a little more on food aid.

SECRETARY KISSINGER: I would like them to get it, if they are indeed what you say they are, which I don't know.

MR. ATHERTON: These are all the initial indications.

SECRETARY KISSINGER: Then they ought to get a friendly reception.

MR. ATHERTON: I think the immediate question is how we comport ourselves with the new government. It seems to me despite what the memo says which we sent you, which I didn't have time to go over carefully this morning -- I think we ought to simply respond to any overtures.

SECRETARY KISSINGER: What did the memo say?

MR. ATHERTON: It says we ought to hold off on a decision on recognition. But I don't think that needs to be posed as that sharp a question.

SECRETARY KISSINGER: We ought to recognize.

MR. ATHERTON: I don't know what recognizing means in this case. I think we simply --

MR. SISCO: Just continue. That memo said also we have to check all this with the Indians, as if to give the Indians a veto. I certainly don't agree with that.

MR. ATHERTON: I think it would be useful --

SECRETARY KISSINGER: We certainly shouldn't go to the Indians.

MR. ATHERTON: I think there might be some merit in an exchange of views with them.

SECRETARY KISSINGER: After we have done it. We will not even discuss establishing contact with the new government with the Indians. After contact is established, we would be interested to hear their views, as long as they clearly understand that they cannot tell us what to do, and as long as they cannot go to the Bangladesh and tell them -- and then ask Bangladesh for their views, so that they can be transmitted to us.

MR. ATHERTON: I fully agree.

SECRETARY KISSINGER: Which is what India would dearly love to do.

You better let me see any approaches.

MR. ATHERTON: I think we have to prepare a telegram today, and we will clear it with you, on what we say to the Indians. And the Pakistanis are important. There will be some move towards Pakistan.

SECRETARY KISSINGER: I also want to see you for a few minutes on a sober instruction to Bhutto, and some of his ideas on commitments. Okay.

SUBJECT: PRELIMINARY COMMENT ON THE COUP IN BANGLADESH

1. THE EVENTS OF THE FIRST TWENTY-FOUR HOURS GIVE PROMISE THAT THE COUP WHICH BEGAN AT 0515 LOCAL TIME ON AUGUST 15 WILL NOT BE CHALLENGED. THE OATHS OF FEALTY TO THE NEW GOVERNMENT SWORN BY THE SERVICE CHIEFS, THE HEADS OF THE PARAMILITARY BANGLADESH RIFLES AND RAKKHI BAHINI ANDTHE HEAD OF THE POLICE BRING ALL ARMED ELEMENTS INTO SUPPORT OF THE NEW REGIME.. THE PUBLIC HAS DISPLAYED NO PARTICULAR JIBILATION AT THE FALL OF MUJIB BUT RATHER ACALM ACCEPTANCE, AND PERHAPS SOME SENSE OF RELIEF. THERELATIVE EASE WITH WHICH POWER HAS BEEN TRANSFERRED SUGGESTS ABOVE ALL THE DEGREE TO WHICH MUJIB AND THE BANGALEES HAD BECOME ALIENATED FROM ONE ANOTHER, THE BANGALEES FROM MUJIB BECAUSE OF HIS FAILURE TO MEET THEIR ASPIRATIONS AND HIS APPARENT DESIRE TO HOLD POWER LARGELY FOR PERSONAL AGRANDIZEMENT AND DYNASTIC REASONS, AND MUJIB

CONFIDENTIAL

CONFIDENTIAL PAGE 02 DACCA 03964 161135Z

FROM THE BANGLAEES AS HE GREW MORE ISOLATED FROM OBJECTIVE COUNSELS AND BEGAN TO SUFFER THE CLASSIC PARANOIA OF THE DESPOT. THE QUICKENING TEMPO OF SHEIKH MUJIB'S EFFORTS SINCE EARLY JUNE TO INSURE HIS STRANGLEHOLD ON POWER,TOGETHER WITH THE GROWING INFLUENCE OF HIS NEPHEW SHEIKHMONI, DOUBTLESS MADE THE COUP PLOTTERS CONCLUDE THAT NO FURTHER DELAYS IN TAKING ACTION WAS POSSIBLE. THAT INDIA'S INDEPENDENCE DAY WAS CHOSEN MAY HAVE BEEN MERELY INCIDENTAL, BUTWE NOTE THE COINCIDENCE.

2. IT IS TOO EARLY TO OFFER ANY SURE OPINIONS ON THE DIRECTION OF EVENTS. THE NEW CIVILIAN GOVERNMENT UNDER KHONDAKAR MUSHTAQUE AHMED SEEMS LITTLE LIKELY TO AROUSEANY SENSE OF ENTHUSIASM. ALTHOUGH PURGED--BY DEATH OR EXCLUSION--OF THOSE WHO WERE CLOSEST TO SHEIKH MUJIB, IT IS STILL A COLLECTION OF OVERLY FAMILIAR FIGURES WHO ARE IDENTIFIED WITH THE POOR ADMINISTRATION OF POST-LIBERATION BANGLADESH. CLEARLY, ITS COMPOSITION IS INTENDED TO SUGGEST THAT BANGLADESH UNDER MUSHTAQUE WILL OFFER CONTINUITY, BUT ALSO THAT THERE WILL BE GREATER MODERATION. MUSHTAQUE'S RADIO ADDRESS LATE ON AUGUST 15 (DACCA 3955) SUPPORTS THIS VIEW, CONDEMNING AS IT DOES THE DOMESTIC CONSEQUENCES OF SHEIKH MUJIB'S RULE BUT CLEARLY SUGGESTING THAT IN SOFAR AS FOREIGN AFFAIRS ARE CONCERNED, BUSINESS WILLBE MUCH AS USUAL.

THERE IS ALREADY SOME EVIDENCE THAT THE NEW GOVERNMENT WILL WANT TO STRENGTHEN ITS TIES WITH THE MUSLIM WORLD, INCLUDING PAKISTAN. AT THE SAME TIME,MUSHTAQUE'S WELL-KNOWN ANTIPATHY TO INDIA NOTWITHSTANDING,THE NEW REGIME WILL NOT WANT TO AROUSE UNDUE SUSPICIONS ON THE PART OF INDIA, CLEARLY COGNIZANT OF THE IMPORTANCE OF PRESERVING AN ADEQUATE MEASURE OF GOODWILL ON THE PART OF ITS IMPOSING NEIGHBOR. (PERHAPS ONE REASON FOR THE COMPOSITION OF THE CABINET, WITH ITS EXCLUSIVE RELIANCEON OLD FACES, IS A HOPE TO DEMONSTRATE TO INDIA ITS BASIC CONTINUITY.)

INSOFAR AS THE MAJOR POWERS ARE CONCERNED, MUSHTAQUE HAS STATED HIS GOVERNMENT'S DESIRE TO ESTABLISH"CLOSER AND FRIENDLY RELATIONS WITH THE BIG POWERS LIKETHE UNITED STATES, THE SOVIET UNION AND CHINA." THIS WOULD SEEM TO MEAN MORE BALANCE IN ITS RELATIONS, AND THUS SOME DIMINUTION IN THE INFLUENCE OF THE SOVIET UNION.

CONFIDENTIAL

CONFIDENTIAL PAGE 03 DACCA 03964 161135Z

3. THE EVIDENCE SO FAR SUGGESTS THE POSSIBILITY THAT OUR OWN RELATIONS WITH THE NEW GOVERNMENT COULD TURN OUT TO BE ON AN EVEN MORE CORDIAL BASIS THAN THEY WERE UNDER MUJIB. THE NEW PRESIDENT HAS IN THE PAST BEEN STRIKINGLY OVERT IN SUGGESTING HIS "PRO-AMERICAN" ATTITUDE; MOREOVER,THE FIGURES IN THE OLD REGIME WHO WERE KNOWN FOR THEIR LEFTIST AND ANTI-AMERICAN VIEWS (SHEIKH MONI AND SAMAD,EXAMPLE) ARE NOW GONE. THE POSSIBILITY IS ALSO STRONG THAT THEY WILL LOOK TO US FOR EVEN LARGER AMOUNTS OF AID--MUSHTAQUE HAS ARGUED WITH US BEFORE THAT WE ARE THE ONLY ONES WHO CAN TRULY HELP BANGLADESH--SO THAT OUR PROBLEM MAY WELL PROVE TO BE ONE OF TEMPERING THE NEW REGIME'S EXPECTATIONS OF US.

4. WE CANNOT PRESENTLY JUDGE THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MUSHTAQUE'S GOVERNMENT AND THE MILITARY. WE NOTE WITH INTEREST THAT EVERY OFFICIAL STATEMENT STRESSES THE ROLE OF THE ARMED FORCES IN THE TAKEOVER. WE ARE TOLD THAT THEY MILITARY ARE AT PRESENT ENGAGED IN PREPARING MARTIALLAW ORDERS WHICH WOULD, IF THE PAKISTANI PATTERN IS FOLLOWED, SERVE AS BASIS LAW OF THE COUNTRY. WHETHER THIS MEANS A GROWTH OF TENSION BETWEEN THE CIVILIANS AND THE MILITARY WE CANNOT YET SAY, BUT WE WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THAT ONE OF THE FIRST STATEMENTS BY MUSHTAQUE WOULD HAVE BEEN A PROMISE OF A NEW, MORE LIBERAL CONSTITUATION THAN THAT IMPOSED LAST JANUARY BY MUJIB. THE CIVILIANS PROBABLY HAVEA MOMENTARY ADVANTAGE IN LIGHT OF THEIR EXPERIENCE; MOREOVER, IN THE AFTERMATH OF THE MILITARY'S SUCCESSFUL OUSTER OF MUJIB, WE ARE LEFT WITH THE IMPRESSION THATTHE COUP PLANNERS PREPARED FOR LITTLE BEYOND THE EVENTITSELF.

HOWEVER, THE MILITARY--AND BY THIS WE MEAN THE YOUNGER OFFICERS WHO PLANNED AND LED COUP--DID WORK THE OVERTHROW OF SHEIKH MUJIB, AND WE SUSPECT THAT,HAVING TASTED BLOOD, THEY WILL WANT AT THE VERY LEAST TO EXERCISE SOME MEASURE OF INFLUENCE OVER THE COURSE OFEVENTS. WE HAVE NO REASON TO LOOK FOR BANGALEE QUADDAFI SAMONG THE COUP PLANNERS; RATHER, AS MEMBERS OF THE OLD,SERVICE-ORIENTED MIDDLE CLASS WHICH WAS THREATENED BY SHEIKH MUJIB, THEY MAY PROVE A MORE MODERATE FORCE THAN HAS BEEN SEEN IN EAST BENGAL SINCE PAKISTANI PERIOD. CONFIDENTIAL

CONFIDENTIAL PAGE 04 DACCA 03964 161135Z

5. ONE POINT TO BE EMPHASIZED IS THAT, WHILE THE OVERTHROW OF SHEIKH MUJIB WAS SUCCESSFUL, IF BLOODLY, A GREAT DEAL REMAINS TO BE DONE. MUSHTAQUE'S SPEECH IS SIGNIFICANT LARGELY FOR ITS GENERALITIES AND ITS ECHOES OF EARLIER AWAMI LEAGUE RHETORIC, BUT CONCRETE ACTIONS HAVE SO FAR BEEN FEW. WE ARE NOT SURPRISED THAT THE DEGREE OF DIRECTION DISPLAYED SO FAR IS LIMITED FOR WE HAVE EVERY REASON TO THINK THAT THOSE PRIVY TO THE PLANNING OF THE COUP WERE SMALL IN NUMBER AND THUS THE OPPORTUNITY FOR PREPARING ANY ELABORATE PLANS FOR THE GOVERNACE OF BANGLADESH WAS VERY SMALL.

HOWEVER, UNLESS EARLY STEPS ARE TAKEN TO DEMONSTRATEVIGOR AND WILL, THE ADVANTAGE NOW HELD BY THE NEWREGIME WILL BEGIN TO DIMINISH, AN WE MAY CONFRONT AN UNSETTLED--AND UNSETTLING--SITUATION AS CONTENDERS FOR POWER EMERGE. NO ONE NOW ON THE BANGLAEE POLITIICAL STAGEHAS KIND OF COMMANDING PERSONALITY WHICH SUSTAINED SHEIKH MUJIB FOR SO LONG. THE CIVLIAN GOVERNMENT FALTERS, WE MAY FIND THE MILITARY CONCLUDING THAT IS MUST AGAIN SAVE THE NATION.
