Nucleus Cell

I want such an economy where no man will exploit another and every man will get its share, neither more nor less. That is why I was with them who fought for independence of Bangladesh. H. S. Suhrawardy, Sarat bose and Abul Hashem worked for sovereign Bengal free from India and Pakistan in 1946, but the journey could not be successful. After emergence of Pakistan as an independent state, East Pakistan Students League leaders Sirajul Alam Khan, Abdur Razzaq and Kazi Arif Ahmed formed Swadhin Bangla Nucleus Cell under the guidelines of AL President Sheikh Mujibur Rahman in 1962.
They did not stop there. They formed Mujib Bahani to fight for independence of Bangladesh. Sheikh Fazlul Haque Moni and Tafael Ahmad were the other leaders. Mujib Bahini was nationalist.
The foremost mission of Mujib Bahini was to foil counter-revolution in case of necessary after emergence of Bangladesh. But rather instead of that, both Swadhin Bangla Nucleus Cell and Mujib Bahini disappeared. Will Sirajul Alam Khan explain, why?

The Palestine Conflict

The Allied Powers proposed to the Jews to settle in Uganda. But they disagreed and chose Palestine as their home. It was accepted. The Jews landed in Palestine from Europe, former Soviet Union and Africa and drove the Muslims. The Jews expanded their territory several times and finally occupied Jerusalem where is the Al Aqsa Masjid
Hazrat Ibrahim (As) built the Al Aqsa Masjid and Hazrat Soleman (As) beautified it in 10004 BC. But King Nebuchand Nezar destroyed the Masjid in 586 BC. He drove away the Jew priests and elites to Babylon. The Masjid was rebuilt in 516 BC. In 70 BC, General Titas at the direction of Commander-in-Chief Pompeo destroyed the Al Aqsa Masjid and sent the Jews on excile.
From there, the Jews began their 2000 years nomadic life. In 132-135 Ad, The Romans totally freed Palestine from the Jews. In 636 A.D. Muslim General Khalid-bin-Walid launched an expedition to free Palestine from the Romans. To avoid war, the Byzantine emperor’s Viceroy and Church Chief Patriarch Sofronews proposed peaceful handover of Palestine in 637 AD. Everything was going peaceful before the Europeans Christians declared crusade against the Muslims seven times between 1095 and 1291 A.D. But King Salahuddin Ayyubi foiled the crusade.
Thereafter the Abbasid dynasty took control of Palestine after which Turk Sultan Solaiman occupied the territory of Palestine, the home of the most prophets of Allah in 1516 A.D.
