You know Mr. Saddam Hussain was the ally of the US once upon a time.

After the revolution in Iran and the fall of 'Shah' govt, the US became the enemy of Iran and tried to destroy the 'Khomini' govt. As a result it incited Saddam Hussein to fight against Iran. The US also helped Osama bin Laden to fight against Soviet Russia (USSR).-the ideological enemy of the US. Now Saddam and bin Laden are the enemies of the US, as they are not serving it anymore.

Many leaders in Muslim countries are serving US interests. They always try to satisfy their master. The Shiite-Sunni conflict is nothing but making division among Muslims. You know the US tried to divide Iraq into three parts- Shiite, Sunni and Kurdi. Darfour crisis in Sudan is also a conspiracy to make the country a failed state with the help of a puppet government to pave the way for military invasion by the US.

You said insurgents in Iraq are killing Muslims. Why this insurgency is going on? The US occupied Iraq in the name of WMD. But that has not been found anywhere in the country!

They captured Saddam Hussein who was a threat to world peace according to their view. Why are now they staying in Iraq? Guerrillas in Iraq are fighting against the occupation forces like Bangladeshi freedom fighters who fought against the Pakistani army.

What is going on in the name of JMB? The bombers and killers are the enemies of Islam. The enemies of Islam want to destroy the image of the religion.

Sabu and Mamun, University of DhakaThank you, Mr. Akbar, for criticising our comment titled "Enemies of Islam" published in The Daily Star on February 5, 2006. You stated some points; but we cannot quite agree with you. You wrote that the US war on Iraq was not religiously motivated, I agree with you. It is ideologically motivated, you can say it's an extension of the crusade. You may claim it is just for controlling oil, what about Palestine? Israel, the illegal occupant, is killing innocent people in Palestine everyday, why? For oil? Or anything else? Why the US is backing this terrorist state? Obviously, the reason is ideological . We have to go by world politics.
