The Nation Will Not Forget the Red Revolutionaries Who Turned the Country into a Graveyard

Opinion

During the previous government’s tenure, I was deeply frustrated by the various misdeeds of the Awami League. Whenever I got the opportunity, I openly criticized them. When I heard the news of student deaths in July, I was shattered with grief. At that time, I wrote multiple times, urging that under no circumstances should they be exploited by anyone. I did not support those who spread rumors and labeled people like me as “Razakars of ’24″—because this is not the Bangladesh I wanted.

Now that everything has become clear—where the money came from, and who wore masks to play the Pied Piper’s flute—looking back after seven months, I have no regrets about my stance. I am proud because I did not walk the wrong path like the so-called “educated” class, who sold out the country for their own interests and stood by traitors.

Many of those who once chanted, “The revolution beats in my chest, I am the alternative,” have now fallen silent. They admit their mistakes and have surrendered again, like turtles peeking out of their shells to say, “We were never good, and we still aren’t.” However, I believe that admitting one’s mistakes is not a sign of weakness. Rather, it paves the way for correction.

When the enemies of this country are trying to destroy it like hyenas, if someone realizes their mistake, they must prove it through action. At the very least, to avoid becoming a farce like Mir Jafar, one should admit their mistake—”We were wrong, and now we are on the path to correction.”

Now that it has been irrefutably proven that the July incident was a well-planned terrorist attack, no sane, thinking person will deny it. Except for Razakars and Mir Jafars, no one will reject this truth.

Today, I salute the Red Revolutionaries who turned our country into a graveyard. The nation will not forget your contribution. You have secured a despicable place in history.
