Bangladesh is not exactly a safe country for anyone who dares to think differently as several bloggers have been murdered by Islamists for promoting "atheism" or denigrating the "one true religion".

Asianews reports

The religion of Bangladesh “is Islam. Anyone who pronounces offensive comments against it or against the Prophet Muhammad, will be prosecuted according to the law ” stated Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina yesterday. She was speaking at a gathering of madrassas [Koranic schools] in Dhaka. “I know that on social media – she added – there is a lot of propaganda. Pay them no attention “….

From the stage, Hasina said that in Bangladesh “there is no place for Islamic militancy, terrorism and corruption. Bangladesh wants to show that Islam is a religion of peace and wants to be a peaceful, prosperous and developed country “. Finally she recalled that Saudi Arabia is providing donations to build 560 “model madrassas” and has invited everyone to pray for the general elections, which should take place in the last week of December.

All this comes at a time when an innocent Christian woman is being hounded by Islamists calling for her death in Pakistan.

One has to wonder why they are so afraid of their religion and it's founder being criticised. Could it be simply because Islam does not stand up to scruitiny? 

The actions of the clerics in Pakistan suggests that these bearded old men are afraid of losing their power and influence over the masses if people actually thought freely about the "religion of peace" and realised what a violent fraud it really is.*

*Just like every other religion before some SJW/lefty prat shouts "Islamphobe" or "racist" at me.
