Bangladesh home minister suggests Israel behind spate of killings
6 June 2016 Asia
Bangladesh Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan has suggested an Israeli link to the recent killings of secular bloggers and minorities.
He said an opposition politician had met an Israeli intelligence agent and there was evidence of an "international conspiracy" against Bangladesh.
He gave no more evidence. Israel says the claim is nonsense.
Critics say the government is in denial about the killings, most of which have been blamed on or claimed by Islamists.
Mr Khan's comments come a day after the wife of a senior police officer investigating the deaths was shot dead.

(3,967 posts)2. This a-hole minister is himself supporting the killings
He is making ridiculous statements to absolve radical Islamists of responsibility because he doesn't mind that Christians and others hated by radical Islam are being brutally murdered.
I hope no DUers will decide to express their support of this sh*tstain.

(3,660 posts)3. Yah. Israel is well known
For its practise of hiring fundamentalist Muslim peasant gangs as assassins to kill atheists, secularists and moderate Muslims in countries which have essentially zero contact with Israel.
I think Himmler used Murder Inc to knock off some German brewers in Brooklyn just after Prohibition too...
