Politics with strange philosophy

1) Do you realise that it has been reported on the BBC that millions of Bangladeshis have been left homeless and possibly without food and water because of the recent floods? Do you seriously think it is so important to those people, who at this very moment are without shelter, food, water, etc. that Sheikh Mujib or Ziaur Rahman declared independence?
2) Do you realise that Bangladesh has been ranked first among the most corrupt countries in the world? I challenge you to explain to the rest of the world that you couldn't pay attention to all the corruption because you had more important matters to settle: who made the call for independence 33 years ago?
There are so many more things I could ask, I could just go on and on. However, I really want our politicians to reflect on these issues.
