Bangladesh seems to be riding the same path as Iran did in 1979 in which a coalition of centrists, leftists, and Islamists brought down a government. Once accomplished, the Islamists under Ayatollah Khomeini killed or otherwise neutralized their erstwhile partners. Democracy advocates are becoming an endangered species in today’s Bangladesh, and Islamists are on the cusp of power. See my interview about Bangladesh, the NYC mayoral race, and more by Hriday Raval on Bharat TV. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1P_Tcl0FDyc
