Political hoodwinking
A Mawaz, Dhaka
The political leaders are very much aware that politics of bluff does not pay in the long run. But still the gambling instinct prevails (in the ambitious breed), because the risk is worth the trouble; as the potential gain is directly proportional to the risk involved. Another option is misplaced patriotism of colonialism overseas.History records that the past sham ideologies failed in the case of visionary groups, and the dictators failed in the case of personalities. More recently, the false foreign affairs propaganda by powerful international cartels have been duping world opinion with holistic approaches, hiding the real intention, which is economic exploitation and control in the long run (the debased survival of capitalism). The poor and the deprived rose against the rich, and the September 11 suicide bombing of New York could be an example of things going wrong. The show of might on both sides does not match: on the one side is the might of modern military power; on the other the self-sacrifice of an individual for a purpose claimed to be noble. It is a war of disparity power vs poverty. It was a good excuse to launch the imperialistic military programmes in Afghanistan and Iraq. The former was for opening the route to the sea for oil from the CIS in the future; while in Iraq there were two main targets: annihilate the military might of the strongest Muslim nation in the world; and, to control the vast energy reserves in Iraq. There is an old example, why oil-rich Iran was liquidated in ten years by the Western forces (Saddam was a partner). The additional negative motivation was to let artificially created Israel to survive, remembering that the Jews control the US economy to a large extent . Bush and Blair have now started paying the price for the false propaganda unleashed on Iraq (and earlier). One is facing the pre-election music in the US, and the other's political rating has gone down. Rationally, Japan and EU are in the slow lane (and sinking slowly), and the lone US is seeking pasture in vast Asia, isolated by two vast oceans on the East and West. Note the migration room effect Nature does not like segregation, on the bast soft skin colour and dollar. Cheating one's own self has a rebounding effect of returning to the source, spiritually speaking. Besides, Baghdad is the spiritual center of Pir Ghausul Azam. The vibrations of the place are sacred. Regardless of the length of the argument list, one cardinal point stands out, is it the beginning of the end of the rich White civilization? The sign wave of Economy is turning back East. This century of the new millennium is for Asia, and the next century for Africa? (the spiritual dispensation has to be democratic). What is on the warpath is the spirit of self-preservation, on either side.
