It keeps on happening — at accelerating pace! Another head of state — President Mujibur Rahman of Bangladesh — whom I have recently visited, was slain last Friday morning at pre-dawn, in a military coup. Bangladesh is, politically, a new country. It emerged from the very recent Pakistani war as probably the most poverty— stricken and illiterate nation on earth. I learned while there that during the last three or four days of the war, the enemy sought out all the leaders and people of education they could corral together, and executed them before firing squads — so as to leave the country almost destitute of educated people for leadership. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
