Bagladesh is becoming another Pakistan & harrasing India
by Chintan Patel on Dec 26, 2006 09:56 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

Our brave Soldiers have laid down their lives for the freedom of Bangladesh, but today Bangladeshi people and some of the political parties of Bagladesh are supporting Pakistan, ISI and other militants group to spread terror in our country. so, the martyrdom of our soldiers have become meaningless.Also bloody politicians of our country do not work properly in this direction.The North-East part of India is becoming another Jammu & Kashmir because of Bangladesh.So, according to me it is not advisable for us to keep a soft corner towards Bangladesh ans We must take some hard steps not only for our own means but also for our great and unforgotable martyrs.

Ok Dude, What year were you born in? Jacob's remarkable treatise on the 1971 war and the historic "Surrender" was published very much while General Aurora was alive. Infact, the book, Surrender At Daaca: The Birth of a Nation by General Jacob was published in 1997 and Aurora passed away in 2006. Meanwhile, there were 9 reprints and Aurora did not have the heart to contest any content of Jacob's famous book, during either of these 9 reprints and during his lifetime. The book was presented to General Aurora on more than one occassion by various top commanders of the army, and yet Aurora didn't have the courage of conviction to contest it.
And for your information, upon reading General Jacob's book, US President George Bush and First Lady Laura Bush sent a personal note appreciation to the war hero- General Jacob in 2006.
The Present British Army Chief, Richard Dannat has this year analysed the winning military strategies, that have been elucidated in "Surrender at Dacca by Jacob" after reading it.
Also, only last week, the historic account has been added to the prestigious House of Lord's library in London.
Now let's hear about your dubious side of the story! Get Real Buster!

And yes, Armchaired Critics like you better shut up on issues like this. The entire top brass of the Indian media and anybody who's done a thorough research on this topic who really got the surrender from Niazi?? Who else, but General Jacob... Ok don't take my word on it..read General Niazi's own account, where he's written that "Jacob forced me to sign the surrender."

Sumeet, a little knowledge is a dangerous thing. Everything that General Jacob said here has already been written in his book, Surrender at Dacca, which was first published in 1997. General Aurora was very much alive then. Did he challenge the book? No. Yet we have people like you, who don't even have a clue about what this is all about, casting such strange accusations about a war hero. what a shame.
