NYT says attack on Bangladeshi Hindus is revenge by Muslims

Hindus being attacked for supporting ‘Awami League’, says anti-Hindu news portal ‘Scroll.in’

New York (USA)/ Delhi – Jihadi radical Muslims have unleashed attacks against Hindus in Bangladesh. Many Hindus have been killed and hundreds of Hindu houses and shops have been looted and set on fire. Many temples have been set on fire and some Hindu women have also been raped. Meanwhile, the western media has done anti-Hindu reporting. The New York Times (NYT) has termed the violence against Hindus in Bangladesh as ‘revenge of Muslims’, while the anti-Hindu Indian news portal Scroll has blamed the violence against Bangladeshi Hindus on Hindus in India.

Following is the reporting by NYT on the violence in Bangladesh

The headline of the article itself read ‘Hindus in Bangladesh Face Revenge Attacks After Prime Minister’s Exit’. By this, NYT wants to say that the Islamic radicals were wronged by the Hindus in the past, which is now being retaliated against.

Hindus are not being attacked because the attackers are radical Islamists, but because they are supporters of Sheikh Hasina. By this NYT wants to say that this attack is not religious but political in nature.

‘Scroll.in’ holds Hindus in India responsible for anti-Hindu violence in Bangladesh

Scroll said,

Anger against the authoritarian Awami League Government continues to manifest itself in violent incidents even after the regime was successfully ousted from power. Every overthrow of power is followed by violence and there is nothing unusual about it.

The right-wing Indian media is making the situation worse by showing news of violence against Hindus in Bangladesh. In fact, Hindus are also responsible for the violence perpetrated by Islamic radicals and people of ‘Jamaat-e-Islami’.

Rioters are attacking Hindus because they want to loot.

Editorial Perspectives

  • This is the latest example of how the anti-Hindu global ecosystem operates ! What else can you expect from such media which always looks down on Hindus and calls them terrorists, rapists, intolerant, etc. ?
  • If the Indian Government wants to present itself as a ‘Hindu Government’, then it should ban the website of ‘New York Times’ in India, and also ban ‘Scroll.in’ citing them as India-haters !
  • If the logic of revenge is applied everywhere, will these anti-Hindu media say that ‘Gujarat riots were the revenge of Godhra massacre by Hindus’ ?
