472 বাংলাদেশের স্বাধীনতা যুদ্ধ দলিলপত্রঃ ত্রয়োদশ খন্ড As human beings and as scholars, however, we call upon our respective countries to express their horror at this systematic extermination of scholars. It cannot be justified by any precedent of international or civil conflict. This was not death stemming from guerrilla action by civilians; this was unprovoked assault on the bodies and minds of individuals who convey the culture of a distinct people. This was genocide in its cruelest and most abject sense. Though our governments may believe themselves limited in actions they can take, there should be no further delay in public recognition than an inhuman deed was panned and executed at Dacca. Full opprobrium should be directed at those responsible. Though our governments may remain silent, we, as scholars, cannot. For whether or not the East Pakistani matter is a civil conflict, it remains our duty to fallen colleagues to express our sense of horror and perhaps, thereby, forestall a continuation or repetition of the ghastly affair.
