So why is this getting such little coverage locally? I
didn’t see any coverage in yesterday’s Telegram or on the CBC News website. I
did an online search but no story surfaced. I do see today a story about Muslim
burial grounds in Torbay but nothing else under the banner Muslim. Even in this
YouTube video there seems to be great reluctance to identify the perpetrators
of violence. Are they Muslims or not? If they were Christians do you think it
might have received mention?
Hindus have suffered a “relentless jihad” over centuries. It continues. Is this jihad coming our way? Silly question.
VOCM carried the story on
Wednesday with a picture of local students. The only reference to Muslim was
connecting the story to an Islamic leader who was sentenced to death earlier
this year.
The MUN students pictured in the stories are seeking support from Canada and the US in order that pressure might be put on the perpetrators in their home country of Bangladesh. I hope it works. Canada released a statement recently condemning the violence. Once again, the word “Muslim” is nowhere to be seen in the article.
