We know who left the country. And many were Bengalis from West Bengal, sent from Calcutta. It was she who sent them - Mrs.[Indira] Gandhi.

Even to get Yahya Khan to reason was an impossible task - it only made you lose your temper.

We(Pakistan) will eat grass, even go hungry, but we will get one of our own (Atom bomb).... We have no other choice!

If the people wanted my head I would bow without demur. If I had lost the confidence or respect of the people I would not want to live. The tragedy of the drama is that the very opposite is true.

[Yahya Khan ] had given me an appointment for the following day. And, days later, General Mohd Umar revealed to me that he'd resorted to this stratagem so that I'd stay in Dacca and see the efficiency of the army. I give you my word of honor that all this is true.

[Mujib Rahman] is mad, mad! And they're all mad, the press included, who repeat after him, Three million dead, three million dead! The Indians had let out the figure of one million. He came along and doubled it. Then tripled it. It's a characteristic of the man - he'd done the same for the hurricane.

[Tikka Khan] made his appeal with loudspeakers, and still he came to know of only four cases. Shall we multiply by ten and make it forty? We're still far from the senseless figures spread around by Mujib [Rahman] and Indra Gandhi.

What can you say of a leader who starts drinking as soon as he wakes up and doesn't stop until he goes to bed? You've no idea how painful it was to deal with Yahya Khan. He was really Jack the Ripper.

Image
The fact is that when you talk about Mujib [Rahiman], everything seems so incredible. I don't understand how the world can take him seriously.

Pakistan was once called the most allied ally of the United States. We are now the most non-allied.

Image
I tried to explain that there was a great difference between me and Mujib [Rahiman]: he was a secessionist and I wasn't.

To build a country, [Joseph] Stalin was obliged to use force and kill. Mao Tse-tung was obliged to use force and kill. To mention only two recent cases, without raking over the whole history of the world.

A regime which puts in a bunker the highest law in the land does not have the moral authority to say that nobody is above the law.

Mujib [Rahman] talks at random, depending on his mood and the disorders of his sick mind.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Image
I don't say it in the Indian fashion that is hypocritically. I say it sincerely because, instead of hatred, I feel great compassion for Mujib Rahiman.

Yes, there are circumstances where a bloody suppression is justifiable and justified.

There's only one man really responsible for those events - Yahya Khan. Both he and his advisers were so drunk with power and corruption they'd even forgotten the honor of the army.

Image
I've known him since 1954 and I've never taken Mujib Rahiman seriously - I understood from the very first moment that there was no depth to him, no preparation, that he was an agitator breathing a lot of fire and with an absolute lack of ideas.

If things do not change, there will be nothing left to change. Either power must pass to the people or everything will perish.
