I have first-hand experience of this type of inhumanity in the name of religion. When I was a boy of 11, the war of liberation in my country—previously East Pakistan and now known as Bangladesh—reached its climax with the annihilation of my Bengali race by the Pakistan army and government, along with their collaborators. The barbaric Pakistan army cracked down on the nation of Bengal under cover of darkness on March 24/25, 1971, indiscriminately killing people until the day they were made to surrender, December 16, 1971.
