FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT OF THE HINDUS OF BANGLADESH
MESSAGE FROM ZEMIRA ELI NATAN
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
INTERNATIONAL UNITY FOR FREEDOM AND EQUALITY

Advocate Rabindra Ghosh has contacted me just this morning with alarming news.  Minorities in Bangladesh are suffering  increased abductions and forced conversions particularly of Hindus in Bangladesh.  This form of ethnic cleansing is occurring globally where Hindus reside in Muslim Countries and also in regions heavily populated by Muslims.  Advocate Rabindra Ghosh has made an appeal to spread the awareness regarding  this very dangerous situation that is causing Hindus to suffer needless humiliation, destruction of their communities and a threat to their very lives!  No one should ever be forced to convert to any religion that is not his own!  Complaints must be registered and shared with the International community for immediate action to end these atrocities at once!  Hindus have endured too much over the centuries as well as my own Jewish people.  This kind of destruction cannot be restored!  Action is required to ensure the safety of those vulnerable to such violation of the very spirit of humanity!  Advocate Rabindra Ghosh  needs every support for his very important work to protect Hindus in increasingly dangerous situations!  The people will no longer tolerate ethnic cleansing, destruction of Holy Shrines, Forced marriages and Forced conversions to Islam!  Every case will be shared with International Civil Liberties Alliances, and International Human Rights Organization, Journalists and Activists who will fight to stop this from ever happening again!  Jews and Hindus share a common history of Ethnic cleansing!  It is long overdue that these crimes against humanity stop!  IUFE DEMANDS JUSTICE FOR THE VICTIMS OF ABDUCTIONS, FORCED MARRIAGES AND FORCED CONVERSIONS TO ISLAM!  The International Community is put on Notice!  Spread the word and help stop crimes against humanity from reoccurring!  Bring tangible assistance to communities that have been routinely destroyed by Muslims who refuse to live with others in Peace!  May this be a course of action for all who are victims of racism, religious intolerance, incitement to violence and attacks on religious minorities!  Thank you to all advocates, activists, educators and journalists who willingly go to battle for the sake of Humanity!

CASES THAT HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFUL FOR BANGLADESH MINORITY WATCH ARE SHOWN HERE.  MANY CASES ARE STILL PENDING THAT NEED EVERYONE'S HELP!

Facts in Brief: -


The victim Ms.Toma Joydhar, the student of Class Seven, who  happened to be within her  Bara Basail High School appearing for examination; but on 02.12.2014 at about 11 a.m. one unidentified person introduced himself as one of  the friends of  victim’s family  that her maternal uncle was waiting for her outside the school; Ms. Toma went out from the school gate for searching her relatives on good faith, but the perpetrators all on a sudden compelled her to board the motor bike and fled away with the victim from the place of occurrence within a twinkle of an eye.  Thereafter the news of kidnapping has been published in the national daily “ Jugantor” on 8th Dec,14 and other media dated 5th of December,14.

Investigation: -


As per verbal request of victim’s family I, on behalf of BDMW communicated with Md. Sajjad Hossain- Officer in Charge of Agoiljhara Police station at Barisal over cell phone who did not confirm the news of abduction as he said no person on behalf of victim family came to lodge any First information report before his police station.
I also contacted with victim’s family (Ms. Bina Joydhar (17)- Cell number -01781251784 elder sisters of victim) over phone she cried and seek our help for rescue of their minor sister from the forceful possession of Mohammad Jashim Gharami of Madaripur District.  They also helped providing me the cell number of the local UP Chairman and also requested us in writing to take appropriate measures to rescue their minor victim. I accordingly again contacted with Officer in Charge of Agoiljhara Police station, Local Chairman of the Union Parishad & requested him to take cognizance of the case and take necessary steps to arrest the perpetrator and to rescue the victim girl. O.C. promised me to recover the victim after filing the case against kidnapper.
Accordingly Md. Sajjad Hossain-Officer in Charge very shortly arrested the perpetrator and rescued the victim and took necessary steps to forward the perpetrator as well as the victim in the court of law as per law to ascertain the age of the victim girl. In the meantime necessary medical examination of the victim is going to be completed.

Action:  

Police took action against the perpetrator after accepting F.I.R. from the mother of the victim as per our request for taking necessary steps for recovery of the victim. ( Agoiljhara PS. Case No. 04/111 dated 12.12.2014 under section 7/30 Women and Children Repression Act,2003)  They arrested the perpetrator on 13.12.14from Madaripur District and rescued the victim on the same night. I, talked with Md. Akkas Ali –Sub Inspector of Police who informed that  perpetrator has been sent to jail custody and the victim has been sent for medical examination at Barisal District today (14.12.14)  

Recommendations:


Bangladesh Minority Watch demand:-

a)      That the minor victim should be handed over to the father and mother as per law.
b)      That the perpetrators should be brought to book as per law of the land
c)       That there should not be any discrimination against Minorities of Bangladesh.
d)      The minority victim should be protected from forceful conversion by using dubious mechanism swearing affidavit or other method.
e)      The Police officers responsible for tracing out the victim as per our request should be rewarded.

Un message aux Juifs vivant à l'extérieur d'Israël de David Ben Gourion Ecrit par Zemira Eli Natan
























Zemira Eli Natan







Directeur Executif






 Unité internationale pour la liberté et l'égalité








Les Juifs de France ont été fiers de leur nation historiquement et dans le présent. Les juifs sont restés en France malgré l'antisémitisme. Ils ont été loyaux citoyens en France et ont obéi aux lois du pays. Ils gardent leurs coutumes dans leurs maisons et ne jamais forcer leurs croyances sur ne importe quel autre citoyen de la France. David Ben Gourion fait le point qui résonne avec chaque Israélien. Tous les Juifs se ils veulent être juif tout doit aller en Israël. La vie en Israël ne est pas facile, mais la vie est meilleure pour ceux qui sont religieux et pour ceux qui ont un fort sens de la nation. Israël est une nation indépendante de toute nation hôte. Les Juifs sont devenus citoyens français devant les Arabes ont fait en Algérie, au Maroc et d'autres pays. Ce est très certainement une source d'agitation, même pour les Arabes vivant dans ces pays et en France aujourd'hui. Les Arabes se demandent ce que ce est sur les Juifs qui ont fait les Français leur donner d'abord la citoyenneté? Se pourrait-il qu'ils étaient fidèles à leurs compatriotes et loyal à la nation de la France? Se pourrait-il que les Juifs jamais forcé leur volonté à d'autres comme le font souvent les Arabes? Les communautés juives en France ont subi une attaque du terrorisme en France. Beaucoup sont dans la crainte de rester en France tandis que d'autres refusent de quitter leurs maisons. Les Juifs ont une histoire en France bien avant l'arrivée des nazis à Vichy. Cette histoire était une des communautés juives florissantes. Maintenant, quand les Juifs viennent en France, ils sont accueillis
Shalom





Il a eu une présence juive en France depuis au moins le Moyen Âge au début. France était autrefois un centre d'études juives, mais la persécution a augmenté le Moyen Age portaient sur, y compris plusieurs expulsions et retours. La France a été le premier pays en Europe à émanciper sa population juive pendant la Révolution française, mais, en dépit de l'antisémitisme de l'égalité juridique reste un problème, comme illustré dans l'affaire Dreyfus de la fin du 19ème siècle. Pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, plus d'un cinquième de la population juive ont été déportés et assassinés dans les camps de la mort. [7] La France a la plus grande population juive en Europe et la troisième plus grande population juive dans le monde (après Israël et les Etats-Unis). La communauté juive en France est estimée à partir d'une population de base de 480,000-500,000 [1] [2] [3] [4] pour une population élargie de 600 000. [5] [6] La communauté juive française se trouve principalement dans la métropole les zones de Paris, Marseille, Strasbourg, Lyon et Toulouse. [citation nécessaire]

Aujourd'hui, les Juifs français sont pour la plupart séfarade et Mizrahi qui venait d'Afrique du Nord et la région méditerranéenne et couvrent un large éventail d'affiliations religieuses, des communautés ultra-orthodoxe haredi à la grande partie de Juifs qui sont entièrement laïque.

Kibbutz Sde Boker 8 Janvier, 1964

Pour Dennis Lipkin-Salutations

De votre lettre, je ai compris que vous connaissez l'hébreu, donc je vais écrire en hébreu.

Il est vrai qu'il est possible pour un Juif qui vit à l'étranger (en dehors d'Israël) pour être une personne décente et savante honnête tout comme il est possible qu'un Juif qui vit en Israël peut être une mauvaise personne injuste et ignorant. Toutefois, si un Juif veut être vraiment un Juif complet, il est possible que dans la terre d'Israël.

Aux États-Unis, le Juif est surtout un «Juif sabbat» par opposition à un «sabbat Gentile". En d'autres termes, un Juif temps partiel vivre de façon étroite et limitée.

Seulement en Israël est-il un Juif tout le temps et dans tout ce qu'il choisit de le faire.

En Amérique, le Juif vit une vie qui est de 99% américain et ce est le même pour un Juif britannique ou un Juif français.

Seulement ici, en Israël, il est 100% juive parce que tout ici est juif: Le champ est labouré et semé par les Juifs, les bâtiments sont construits par des Juifs, les routes sont pavées par les Juifs, les arbres sont plantés par les Juifs, les livres sont imprimés par Juifs, et le bébé de son enfance entend la langue hébraïque et est exposée au judaïsme.

Tout est trempé avec le judaïsme, la matière et le spirituel, et il n'y a pas d'esprit sans matière et aucune question sans esprit.

En Amérique, le physique et le spirituel que les Juifs sont impliqués ou sont 99% bénéficient pas juif.


Un Juif qui veut être juif dans tout ce -doit viennent ici en Israël

The Unjust Detention of Kamran Simon Saif By: Zemira Eli Natan

Zemira Eli Natan
Executive Director
International Unity for Freedom and Equality


Kamran Simon Saif with Esther Kramer
Kamran Simon Saif
A Pakistani Christian in Detention


Many of our friends within our coalition are very familiar with Kamran Simon Saif, a Pakistani Christian who has been detained at Rotterdam in the Netherlands  for not  carrying proper identification with him while crossing the border.  After he spent many months detained in the company of potentially dangerous detainees in Rotterdam, his case remained unheard at the IND.  His advocate submitted more than enough evidence  to the IND as  pertaining to his true identity.  They detained him for months even after submitting that proof!  He is now being transported from Rotterdam to Amsterdam!  This is a two hour journey from the home of Esther  Kramer his beloved friend and companion.  She works tirelessly to visit him regularly to ensure that he is in good health during his detention and to be his hope and his strength.  Her daily work  in publicizing his detention  and also her sacrifice to save him from the humiliation and danger of being deported back to Pakistan, a land where killing a religious minority  is done without remorse , especially a Christian is beyond what many who have the ability to are doing to keep him free from detention and deportation.  His case is not a difficult one.  It has been proven time and again.  Yet, the IND is still not satisfied!  An effort  was made to submit papers to members of the European Court to demand that Kamran Simon Saif be set free.  The advocate handling his case refused to return calls and refused to release his file so that a proper defense could be prepared for Kamran.  The lack of response from church leaders is shocking that this young man is not so much a concern that they could actually allow him to be deported back to a land where his entire family has a fatwa against them.  Where is the logic , the sanity , the justice and the reason behind releasing Muslims who destroy, rape, and insist on violating the rights of people in Europe while demanding their own rights?  IUFE was shocked to learn that Simon was being moved so quickly and also that his access by phone is being denied to him!  The Link below  is the location that Kamran Simon Saif is being detained:


https://www.dji.nl/Organisatie/Locaties/Detentiecentra-en-uitzetcentra/Detentiecentrum-Noord-Holland/#paragraph2

  They are transporting him as this article is being written.  I ask the International community to make contacts with leaders who can press the IND to release Kamran into the care of Esther Kramer who is his life companion and trusted helper.  To allow him to be deported back to Pakistan would mean the end of his life for certain!  This case will be shared with Civil Liberties Alliances and Human Rights Organizations to demand Kamran Simon Saif's immediate release!  This detention is not unlike what occurred in the Holocaust where detention was common for those the Nazis termed as criminals!  To see that something like this is currently acceptable by the IND is shocking!  Especially since that history was  told to everyone as "NEVER AGAIN" .  It cannot happen ever again!  This gifted, talented young author whose poems and music that many of us cherish,  is not a candidate for detention!  It cannot be accepted that such a person is detained while Muslims who actively commit serious crimes in the Netherlands walk free!  Never can we accept it!  Nor shall we accept it! The demand  is very clear!  Release Kamran Simon Saif!  Grant him asylum in Netherlands!  He must have access to the outside world by phone and by Internet!  It cannot be accepted that he is cut off from his community who love him and cherish his friendship.

Human Rights 365 Advocate Veerji Kolhi Leads March for International Human Rights Day Dec 8-12 By: Advocate Veerji Kolhi and Zemira Eli Natan

Zemira Eli Natan
ExecutiveDirector
International Unity for Freedom and Equality

Shanti Prayer in English
Dedicated to the True Activists to fight every single day to protect the inalienable Human Rights of Indigenous Peoples

Om May we all be protected
May we all be nourished
May we work together with great Energy
May our intellect be sharpened
(May our study be effective)
Let there be no Animosity amongst us
Om Peace (in me), Peace in Divine Forces

The theme of Human Rights 365

"  I call on states to honor their obligation to protect human rights every day of the year.  I call on People to hold their governments to account."

UN Secretary- Gerneral   Ban Ki-moon

This year's slogan Human Rights 365 encompasses the idea that every day is Human Rights Day.  It celebrates the fundamental proposition in the Universal Declaration that each one of us, everywhere is entitled to the full range of Human Rights, that Human Rights belong equally to each of us to bind us together as a global community with the same ideals and values.

Excerpt From  The Statement of the High Commissioner of Human Rights

United Nations
Zeid Ra'ad al Hussein

"  All Human Beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.":  is perhaps the most resonant and beautiful words of any international agreement.  The Universal Declaration of Human Rights promises to all the economic, social political, cultural and civil rights that underpin a life free of want and fear.

These Human Rights are not country specific.  They are not a reward for good behavior, or particular to a certain area or social group.  These are the inalienable entitlements of all people, at all times everywhere, 365 Days a Year.

They are the rights of people of every color, from every race and ethnic group; whether or not they have disabilities; citizens or migrants; no matter their sex, their class, their caste , their creed, their age or sexual orientation..."

Certainly every civilized human being stands for these principles.  As a Jew  and as an Israeli American  I  cannot say that this holds true for my people.  I am a member of an indigenous People whose land is frequently up for negotiation with a group of non indigenous people who seek to destroy mine.  I believe in every tenant and principle that these statements hold, but I am very concerned that they are not put into practice on many levels.  I see another member of an indigenous people, Advocate Veerji Kolhi whose work speaks for itself in the struggle to uphold these principles.  I see his Holy Hindu Shrines destroyed.  I see the women of his people being raped, forced into marriages before they are of proper marriageable age, and forced to convert to a religion that is not their own.  I see my Nation of Israel  being denied the rights that are guaranteed to them under the Universal Declaration of Human Rights but Most of all by the G-d's own Promise to my people.  I see discrimination running rampant  upon Jews and upon Hindus  in India and in Pakistan, and I am not seeing the Justice and tangible assistance occurring to rebuild these shrines, restore these devastated communities, or the returning of dignity to those whose basic rights are being denied.  I will never stop standing for these principles and will never stop my work to join in these efforts to bring about change in this world.  I will stand forever with Advocate Veerji Kolhi and other True Activists like him  to make these  issues become known to the international community.  I am not ashamed nor am I ever afraid.  I love my Nation Israel and above all, I love my G-d.  Truth is power over deception.  I wait for the promises to become a reality!  When I see the change and the restoration of the basic Human rights mentioned in these statements,   I will know for certain that our work is not in vain.

A Point of Clarification In Response to False Accusations made by Upananda Brahmachari Editor of Hindu Existence By: Zemira Eli Natan



Zemira Eli Natan
Executive Director
International Unity for Freedom and Equality


Today I spent most of my day being bullied by the editor of Hindu Existence.  His accusations stated that IUFE is a false organization.  First of all, IUFE is not a registered organization yet.  It is however and International coalition comprised  of members from all over the world including India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Europe and the USA.  IUFE's contacts are advocates and professionals working on the ground to solve problems such as Love Jihad, Forced Conversion to Islam, Destruction of Religious Shrines, Places of Worship and Deities, and Medical Camps for areas afflicted by drought or flood. WE HAVE COLLECTED NO DONATIONS FOR THIS WORK,  ALL OF THIS WORK IS DONE WITH FUNDS FROM THE OWN POCKETS OF OUR PROFESSIONALS.   At one time Mr. Achintya Das, who Mr. Upananda Brahmachari possibly works with or perhaps may even be another fake profile of Achintya Das whose other alias at the time of this coalition's formation was Visal Rana, worked online as an Administrative Director  working from his laptop from his home.  There was never an agreement to pay Mr. Achintya Das a salary for any work done for this coalition.  This coalition and its members who are advocates, activists, and humanitarians working for this cause is volunteer based only.  Mr. Das however wanted to earn a profit.  He proceeded to continually make decisions that were not authorized and it was never agreed that he make any executive decisions for this coalition, hack my email accounts and the account to IUFE blog along with his girlfriend Karishma Randeria.  He  had me send him money to do work for this coalition which was never done.  He claimed not to received this money and then bragged to a friend that he took the money because he felt he should have been paid a salary, and also received a camera from Advocate Veerji Kolhi!    Since Mr. Das could not accept this situation he proceeded to photo shop my photos taken without my expressed permission, claim that I was in a relationship with him and slander my name to contacts of which Mr. Upananda Brahmachari , Editor of Hindu Existence is one of them and again quite possibly a colleague or fake profile and spread false details of the personal life of Advocate Veerji Kolhi and myself on the internet  and private message.  Mr. Upananda Brahamchari wasted much of my time after repeated requests that he stop his behavior immediately.  Yet Mr. Upananda Brahmachari shared with me details of Mr. Achintya Das allegations and accusations against me!  Mr, Achintya Das opened an Unauthorized chapter of IUFE  in India which is no longer in existence to collect money for his personal agendas.  You can see that effort in the link below where I announce the illegal activity of Achintya Das and his girlfriend Karishma Randeria.  I, Zemira Eli Natan endured being called a phycho, a nymphomaniac and a fraud that exploits Hindus for profit while living an extravagant lifestyle by Upananda Brahmachari, Editor of Hindu Existence.  I am posting this  as clarification to my members and my friends who actively work with me on these issues!  I am being falsely accused!  I am a legitimate person working on peace building efforts between Israel and India and I am an admin for LIKE FOR ISRAEL INDIA on FACEBOOK .  I have no ulterior motives to exploit anyone!  However, I have been harassed and falsely accused!  I do NOT share my photos without my expressed permission and if they are on Facebook they are not to be taken without my permission!  Mr.  Das has falsely identified himself as an executive director which he is not and www.iufe.org is no longer in existence!  This is a false link! Any chapter of IUFE  in India is a fraudulent organization and I am requesting that NO money be sent to this false organization in India.  IUFE is based in the USA and I am its only Executive Director!  Thank you to all my readers and all my colleagues for your tireless efforts and your continued membership which by the way is FREE!  

I hope this brings clarification to my members and colleagues as to why I am very shocked that anyone could behave this unprofessionally when there are people who need our work!  People whose communities have been devastated!  This coalition is NOT a forum to marry a girlfriend, buy her a house and a car, and slander the good name and reputation of legitimate people working for causes that help humanity and bring peaceful coexistence within an international community!  The link below reveals my post in 2013 as to the reason I disassociated with Achintya Sundar Das aka Visal Rana .

The correct and authorized link to this coalition:s blog is:

www.internationalfreedomequality.blogspot.com

The correct and legitimate name of this coalition is INTERNATIONAL UNITY FOR FREEDOM AND EQUALITY

It a shocking experience for a community to come to their place of worship only to see it torched to the ground.  Advocate Veerji Kolhi spent more than a week in Tharparkar to help the Hindu Community who are afflicted by drought in the area.  To his dismay he arrived in the Tando Muhammad Khan District of Sindh near Hyderabad only to find a Holy Shrine torched and vandalized.  In my conversation with Advocate Veerji Kolhi he explained to me that this shrine is ancient and historical to the Hindus of this region.  The people wanted to leave their homes as a result.  Advocate Veerji Kolhi spoke to Hindu leaders and assured them that despite these attempts to force the owners of this land away that they will remain on the land of their Mother.  The community is devastated after this experience.  There are few options available.  Advocate Veerji Kolhi  is not unlike my own people Israel  who refuse to relinquish their ancestral home.  "  It gives them what they want if the people will leave their homes, and I will not allow this.", says Advocate Veerji Kolhi.  Many friends are supporting his position on this issue.  Others are very concerned for his safety and the safety of all Hindu communities effected by this and many other crimes against humanity.  My concern is that this kind of destruction and devastation is accompanied by abduction of Hindu girls who are forced into marriages with older men and forced to convert to Islam.  I am also concerned that these people whose lives are centered on the worship of their Holy places  and the peaceful community which they unselfishly share with everyone are continually harassed and without mercy or concern for their welfare by their government, are ignored and left to constantly live in fear, lack of resources and without hope of recovering from this devastation.  Our advocates are their only representatives and those in the International community including their own who raise the voice for Humanity and the protection of their rights.  IUFE demands the protection of these indigenous people and that their rights to practice their religion freely, live without harassment and abduction, and full citizenship and participation within their society be upheld.  IUFE further demands punishment to the full extent of the law for any desecration of Holy Shrines or Vandalizing Hindu Deities. IUFE demands the full protection of our Advocates working on these cases and protecting the health and safety of these communities. The International Community must also join us in this demand.  These are serious violations of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and require immediate attention by the Government of Sindh and Pakistan and all Civil Liberties Alliances and Human Rights organizations!
