Islam in the subcontinent overall is hellish. Pakistan is little better than Bangladesh. I wonder if it is cultural or specific to the conditions there. Unlike the Middle East and Maghreb, there is one gigantic polytheistic religion Muslims have to live side by side with, and shirk is probably the most detestable thing in Islam.Bengali Muslim radicals and even semi-moderates are a completely different kettle of fish compared to the ones we see in the middle east. I travel to that part of the world quite often for business and i am telling you, minority religious groups (even within Islam), atheists, gays, transexuals live in fear. Outside of thrashing Hindu villages and temples, how many atheists been murdered in Bangladesh in the past 2 years? just google. Even the moderates hate atheists but they dont act out in public like that but secretly they are happy if atheists get murdered.I asked one of them once about what does he think of the atheist murders and he replied "ofcourse its a tragedy but honestly they should not be speaking up against our religion in public, if you disrespect god you will pay the ultimate price". I was shocked to hear that, i was working with this bloke , highly educated and so on, but it doesnt look like he is too concerned about the human rights violations there, he needs to find a legitimate excuse for the radicals.
