Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Bangladesh: Muslims brutally slaughter 70-year-old Hindu priest, leave his head nearly severed

Jun 7, 2016 10:18 am By Robert Spencer

“When you meet the unbelievers, strike the necks…” (Qur’an 47:4)

“Experts say a government crackdown on opponents, including a ban on Bangladesh`s largest Islamist party Jamaat-e-Islami following a protracted political crisis, has pushed many towards extremism.” Yes, of course, that’s what the “experts” always say: that jihad terror activity is the fault of non-Muslims. If only Infidels would be nicer to Muslims, all would be well. If the government would just stop cracking down on Jamaat-e-Islami, everything in Bangladesh would be fine — that is, if the government stops resisting Sharia supremacists, and instead surrenders utterly, the violence will stop. The solution is easy!

“Hindu priest Ananda Gopal Ganguly slaughtered by ‘Islamist militants’ in Bangladesh – These brutal details will shock you,” Zee News, June 7, 2016:

Dhaka: It’s yet another brutal murder in a series of attacks on minorities by suspected Islamist militants in Bangladesh.

In a shocking incident, a 70-year-old Hindu priest was slaughtered by unidentified attackers in western Bangladesh on Tuesday.

The body of Ananda Gopal Ganguly was found with his head nearly severed in a rice field near his home in the village of Noldanga in Jhenidah district.

Reportedly, the priest left home this morning saying that he was going to a Hindu house to offer prayers.

Later farmers found his near-decapitated body at a rice field.

“It was too early to point fingers at any group, but added that ‘pattern of the killing is similar to ones carried out by local Islamist militants in recent time’,” the area’s deputy police chief Gopinath Kanjilal said.

Bangladesh is reeling from a wave of murders of secular and liberal activists and religious minorities that have left more than 40 people dead in the last three years.

Ganguly is the 11th person to be killed in the last ten weeks with most of the attacks being claimed by Islamic State jihadists` group.

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina`s government has blamed homegrown Islamists for the attacks, rejecting claims of responsibility from the IS and a South Asian branch of Al-Qaeda.

Experts say a government crackdown on opponents, including a ban on Bangladesh`s largest Islamist party Jamaat-e-Islami following a protracted political crisis, has pushed many towards extremism.

    Does anyone really care for Hindus? Many Hindus get killed but there are only outrages about Muslim killings.

    There are attempts to whitewash images of Muslims,hug them on the streets,welcome them with roses only to be raped.Hindus will never be so cheap to stand in the street to ask people to hug them.They will never lament the absence of any film projecting them in a positive manner but will always be projected in a negative fashion thanks to various main stream newspapers,channels and Indian journalists themselves for reasons known to them.

      I care about Hindu’s a peaceful loving sect to both man and beast. I just want to moslems slaughtered by the millions for all the damage they have done for the last 1435 years. During Ramadam we will see nothing but slaughter every where. May this gentle Brahmin rest in peace.

        Thanks graveimage.

        There was no self pity involved but a question for everyone about this love for the”peaceful religion”.

        • gravenimage says

          Jun 7, 2016 at 7:20 pm

          No, I didn’t think this was self pity–we should *all* be concerned about this Muslim savagery.

      Ah, yes. Another example of the legendary courage of the ” Lions of Islam ” I wonder how many Muslim scum it took to bring this frail 70 year old man down ??????

    • linnte says

      Jun 7, 2016 at 6:52 pm

      I care! Hindus, Buddhists both offer our World much wisdom. I can’t imaging the grief felt by the Hindu community with the horrendous murder of this priest. And your grief also Concerned Indian! An example for others….imagine if this happened to the Dali Lamma? World wide protests would be held. So very unnecessary and sad.

      • Concerned Indian says

        Jun 7, 2016 at 6:58 pm

        Thanks ,Linnte.Please note my reply to Vivienne.No self pity but a statement of facts.There is such a huge sympathy for Muslims all over that I wonder why this appeasement is necessary.Why are the refugees even necessary?With many groups being oppressed the world over,why these are selectively accepted?It’s sheer selfishness on the part of the Left.Regards,

          Most Western people I know care, but they find it so upsetting they won’t dwell on it. I feel that is wrong, because we should get angry.

          We are our brother’s keeper.

    The world has no choice but to eliminate these monsters of Islam or we will continue to hear these kinds atrocities from them!!

    • Concerned Indian says

      Jun 7, 2016 at 7:02 pm

      Jaladhi,soon all news about their atrocities will be suppressed.The host nations with their Islamophile Leftist Govt.s must be squirming in their chairs over the press leaks of rampant rapes and violence perpetrated by the scum.They will be soon declared a peacefully integrated community despite the ligers or tions that they may produce.

    Why don’t we simply separate the demonic verses and associated Hidaths out and point out their demonicness? We can compare them to the “golden rule” verses lifted from the Torah and New Testament. Easy as pie.

    • gravenimage says

      Jun 7, 2016 at 2:04 pm

      Easy as pie? Unfortunately, Muslims have no interest in following the Golden Rule. It is, in fact, un-Islamic.

  4. Ex-muslim says

    Jun 7, 2016 at 12:41 pm

    The mass-killings of Hindus, Christians, Atheists and other non-muslims will only increase during the unholy month of Ramadan. Those undefended minorities should sell their properties and move to India before they got slaughtered by muslim jihadists.

    • gravenimage says

      Jun 7, 2016 at 2:05 pm

      India is not entirely safe, either–but it is much safer than Muslim-majority Bangladesh and Pakistan.

    • The Satanic Verses says

      Jun 8, 2016 at 12:27 pm

      I can understand the desire to seek sanctuary in a safer country however it just achieves the Islamist’s objective of ethnically cleansing the society of non-Muslims and if this keeps happening over generations we will keep fleeing until there is nowhere left to go.

      Ideally, the righteous must stand against Islamic brutality and our societies should support them rather that what we currently do… ignore, downplay and submit to the Islamist threat.

    Muslims have already slaughter over 80 Million Hindus, Sikhs and Buddhists. Lives don’t matter to them. Including their own or their families.

    • Jaladhi says

      Jun 7, 2016 at 1:40 pm

      Muslims have infinite apatite for murder and genocide as their demon god needs sacrifice of human beings every day. Or he wouldn’t be happy!

        Dead right but you Lawrance of Arabia was in love with his butch moslem arabs. Bloody man has a lot to answer for. No wonder he was kicked out and committed suicide – idiot man. At fifteen I thought he was the dishy Peter O’Toole in the movies by David Lean.

    Bangladesh: Muslims brutally slaughter 70-year-old Hindu priest, leave his head nearly severed
    ………………………….

    This *poor man*. This is how Muslims “celebrate” Ramadan.

    If you can’t tell, it’s ramadan.

    Repeated episodes of brutally murdering “Hindus” and Buddhists in Bangladesh (i.e., former East Pakistan) are taking place with the tacit approval of current Bangladeshi government in power in Dacca.

    Because, this is a simple fact that Bangladeshi govt. does not execute Muslim bastards convicted of murdering “Hindus” and Muslim bastards are not fearful of any punishment for repeatedly murdering “Hindus” due to that legal fact alone.

    There’s “Enemy Property Law” in Bangladesh, which says that for Muslim bastards to take over any real-estate property or small-business of minority “Hindus” is perfectly legitimate.

    Many of you on this Jihad Watch website probably haven’t heard of any such “Enemy Property Law” before my writing here about that today!

    Like in any Muslim-majority country, non-Muslims in Bangladesh (i.e., former East Pakistan) started to disappear from jobs, from localities, and from their ancestral properties since 1947 A.D.

    Many non-Muslims fled for life, many fled to save families’ little fortune, many fled to protect their vulnerable family members, many simply became destitute street-dwellers in neighboring non-Muslim-majority countries and, quite obviously, so many non-Muslims were systematically murdered by Bangladeshi Muslim bastards!

    I convey my profound respect to Jihad Watch website owners for routinely chronicling the ill fates of “Hindus” in Bangladesh (i.e., former East Pakistan) when not many Western media even bother to notice anything even when, with running government’s tacit approval, Muslim-majority population routinely and systematically commit ethnic cleansing of minority non-Muslims such as “Hindus” in Bangladesh (i.e., former East Pakistan).

      At least India has the good sense to erect a huge fence bordering Bangladesh. Pretty sad, when it’s due to your neighbour wanting to murder you.

    Why was he killed? There is only one reason – the quran demands death of every non muslim. May this good man rest in peace.

    • Concerned Indian says

      Jun 7, 2016 at 8:41 pm

      Ms.Bridgette,

      It’s not about being Hindu or Christian.It’s about intolerance which passes of as freedom to practice one’s religion.Only the Peaceful,Pious believers of a zombie book are allowed that.

      I am born Hindu but mind well ,we were happiest when we were not told about our religious denomination,nationality and any other restrictive factor.I write here not as a Hindu or Indian but as a human who observes huge amount of hypocrisy,unnecessary love for the cowards who attract sympathy by showing a dead child either lying face down or in the arms of a rescue worker( which you can see by dozens in the Indian subcontinent and any other third world nation and one can’t be proud of that.

      We as human and humans alone should stand together and shout the loudest otherwise it will be considered the right wing nationalists alone are against these matters.You will soon notice that there will be no reports accessible about rapes in Europe and that there is “peace”That is what that cult means by that.

      • mortimer says

        Jun 8, 2016 at 1:59 am

        Islam is the most intolerant religion…Allah tells Muslims it’s their duty to humiliate, murder and mutilate the disbelievers.

        80 million Hindus were murdered by the Islamic death cult, the largest religious genocide in history.

  10. a fool says

    Jun 7, 2016 at 8:28 pm

    “Thou shall not kill!”
    “He who lives by the sword shall perish by the sword.” The Muslim Jihadists will all die as they lived, then, they will all enter Hell! In Hell there is neither Light nor Heat (Warmth), because they belong to God! “God is Light in Him there is No Darkness, none at all!” Muslim Jihadists are Evil, there is No Light in them! They live in darkness, so they will die and enter into the Everlasting Darkness! God have mercy on them, help them to turn around and be saved by the Blood of Christ! Amen!

    No normal human beings would want to be an Muslim ~~ a religion that is build on Hatred, that they take great pride in killing! They couldn’t stop try to kill by meaner and more mean ways! Their passion is to figure out how to kill by more and more mean ways for the Victims to suffer more and more pains… There is LOVE within those souls! Where God is absent, there is the Lack of LOVE! None other religions on earth seeks to do what the Islam does and promotes with Such Sick PRIDE! Only Satan along seeks ways to destroy what good and beautiful! They have nebither LOVE nor FORGIVENESS!
