Talk:Bangladesh UN Peacekeeping Force

Vandalism/ POV Commentary

I have deleted the POV commentry without ani citation or refference. The edits soul purpose was to humiliate and disrespect the highest contribtingarmy to the United Nation. 88 lives have left their family to protect the lives of nationals and race that have noting to do with them. These 88 lives till date, gave their life NOT FOR MONEY, but to defend and honour HUMANITY.

Yes there are rotten apples in every basket, but that doesnt justify the work of thousand lifes of so many that were lost to serve the United Nations Peaceforce.

• Firstly: The rules of engagement for UN Peacekeepersare not of peace enforcement. UN Peacekeepers are not at first expected to ever fight. As a general rule, they were deployed when the ceasefire was in place and the parties to the conflict had given their consent. They were deployed to observe from the ground and report impartially on adherence to the ceasefire, troop withdrawal or other elements of the peace agreement. This gave time and breathing space for diplomatic efforts to address the underlying causes of conflict.

• Secondly: In Rwanda, at the time the contingentof UNAMIR of a pathetic 3oo UNPKs not only included Bangladeshis but Pakistanis, and Canadians. The Belgians left following UN's failure to provide more soldiers. Canadian Armed Forces General Romeo Dallaire was put in charge of a United Nations peacekeeping force during this 1994 genocide. His proposal called for 5,000 soldiers to permit orderly elections and the return of the refugees. The soldiers were never supplied and the killing began. The UNAMIR had been able to rescue Prime Minister Faustin, who was now at the Force HQ.[17][18]

You are strongly requested to get more details before resorting to POV commentry with deceptive statements without knowing the right facts. --Incognito1980 17:08, 25 May 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Incognito1980 (talk • contribs)

The POV is clearly in dispute. You have disregarded all complaints. In fact, Paul Rusesabagina, in his book An ordinary Man, specifically states the failure of the Bangladeshis. Also, there is no need to boldenj the number 88. Finally, tthe presentation of only the positive side is, in fact, a violation of neutrality. 76.200.118.133 (talk) 20:51, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

Rwanda MUST be discussed in this Article!

Unflattering though it may be, there is first hand testimony, courtesy of Romeo Dallaire of the lack of performance of the Bangladeshi soldiers, and this should be in the article.

All it takes is a bit of Google, and you'll find lots of snippets from Dallaire talking about the refusal to follow orders, the deliberate sabotage of their vehicles, etc. etc.

This article as it is, does not serve any scholarly purpose. Its partisan and biased and not much good to anyone. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.236.37.188 (talk) 04:23, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

Dead source

Link #3 is dead http://www.ittefaq.com/issues/2010/07/09/news0737.htm. Is there an alternate source for the figure of percentage of forces contributed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tahnok (talk • contribs) 04:05, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

propaganda

Part of this article is total crap which sounds as if it has been written by some propaganda department in Bangladesh. 46.114.141.221 (talk) 18:09, 10 June 2021 (UTC)
