Pakistan’s Bogus War on Terror

War on Terror! What buzz word this has become in the post 9/11 world? May be one is forced to think whether there was no terror before that. Or this has got more prominence because terror has hit the big daddy. Now we shall leave it for the individuals to come to their own conclusions. Since the beginning we hardly had convincing rationale to believe how the accidental super power could buddy up with a notorious failed state for this dangerous game. Why laden was leading a happy life in Pakistan? No body could give reasonable answers till date. Additionally no body wanted to know the answers, because it is an open secret that Pakistan is the mother of all terror and a haven for buddy terrorists. But it still claimed that it is morally upright and a serious peace lover.

The actual and ugly face Pakistan was seen when Shakeel Afridi was jailed for 33 years. The Doctor who helped to capture the top terrorist, by running a fake vaccination drive. Justice is delivered after the laden’s killing. But shouldn’t we be rewarding the one who was instrumental in capturing laden. The bounty in INR was 125 crores I suppose which was announced for the one who captures or provides information to capture laden. But he did not deserve 33 years of prison sentence. Recently Afridi disclosed how he was treated in jail by ISI, but let’s not forget that more than 80 % of the terrorist plots are hatched in Pakistan or has links to this rouge and failed state. In public it claims that it does not need military aid of America to survive on the contrary it decried when Kerry Lugar bill passed, this is worst than double standards. When people cannot live peacefully especially minorities and inflation, unemployment, other evils plague this unfortunate country, the rulers always debate and discuss on how they could line their pockets with the military aid. Forget about being either welfare or policy state it is under the clutches of tyrants. For more than 6 decades this Islamic state has been trying to destabilize this Hindu majority and a secular country as Islamic invaders have tried and been trying to convert this country a 100 % Islamic country, but they can try forever with out success. It’s time for the ubiquitous empire to wake up and take that unpleasant decision to stop funneling the tax payer’s money and demand tangible results from Pakistan for the money it has spent till now.

Anders Breivik : Conflict of Moral Intentions and Immoral Actions

It always amazed me the level of convictions these two young men had. But the substance on which they had allegiance is totally different. One is Extreme patriotism, the other one is extreme religious fanaticism and fundamentalism. Where as one wanted to save his country from distortion and the other wanted to de-stabilize a neighboring nation state. With respect to Anders Breivik’s act of killing more than 70 people motive sounds to be moral when it is juxtaposed with Kasab’s. An interesting point for us to note is how the legal systems reacted in both these cases. Anders is undoubtedly a patriot and wanted to save the whole continent from an eventual degeneration. Though I do not subscribe to the means he employed to fulfill his objective but I have due respect for his intentions. Unlike Kasab he did his own study and came to conclusion or identified the deep malice of the whole continent. Generally this is a result of uncontrolled/unguided reading I suppose? But the Pakistani Terrorist was indoctrinated and was told that his family will be given some money as a favor to his martyrdom. Now Pakistan being a failed state, there is an utter disregard for people’s development. Apart from Allah mongering there is no genuine attempt to improve the life standard of ordinary mortals. I would not talk much about Kasab or Pakistan much out here as I feel I might end up wasting a lot of ink.

Richard Millet just pre-empted what I thought. Ie., Breivik gave to Norway what it deserves. Let’s not forget that the Ottoman Empire spread from the modern day Spain to frontiers of India and swayed the whole North Africa and the cultural distortion it carried out too much for normal person to understand in a short time. I have glanced around 100 pages of European Declaration of Independence Doc 2083. And you cannot deny even a single statement out there; all that is written is indeed a monumental truth. I know many have questioned his scholarly ability to compose such a document, but that is not what we should be discussing but the actual substance. And his sympathy towards Hindus is natural. The prophetic religion’s main aim was/is/will be to establish a Islamic caliphate in this world and the blood thirsty Jihadists are working round the clock to accomplish their goal with full confidence and conviction though no body is sure when that will happen. Now the argument is are all those who are against this fanatic jihadism are standing up together for a formidable defense. The answer is certainly no. May be he wanted to wake up the whole Europe in general and Norway in particular from a deep slumber and gather the attention. But what he failed to realize is that it is only in video games when people/enemies are killed there is no impact and gives pleasure to oneself with out harming any real human beings, I am not talking about Ra-One movie by the way. By murdering innocents he blurred the distinction between him and the jihadis. The another fact which this European savior has failed to notice/realize is that for the current state of world affairs, let it be racism, political instability and many other issues Europe is responsible. He must also have tried to let every one that Europe is at fault first and the violent Jihad seemed to have taken birth to counter crusaders. Scholars have agreed that Christendom and Caliphate’s intention is to rule the world based on a common code. When different competing actors wanted to rule this world, violent quarrel is consequential. When a society is oppressed or in danger from external forces, the oppressed or those in danger must rise up to the occasion and defend. After being relieved from Europe’s tyranny, every body has learnt being more civilized at least in public. So in an era like this the dubious methods employed by Breivik are indeed uncalled for.

Yes. Violent Islam is a threat to the whole world’s stability. But this does not seem to be an appropriate response. The sheer number of Islam followers is increasing because any form of contraception is considered as a sin. On a lighter note may be until the time Indians and Chinese are there the counter balance is assured. I opine that governments must bring uniform laws to control birth rate. Through this dangers of multiculturalism can be over come. There may be many other best ways; it is for the adept political scientists to comment. I am admiring the manner legal proceedings have concluded, and the judiciary is in the verge of pronouncing the number of years for which he must be imprisoned, which might be up to 21 years and in worst case for life he should be in jail.

In a way I see no difference between Breivik and Kasab because both are mass murderers. But one had moral and the other had immoral intentions. I am only subscribing to the moral intentions though not the actions or means employed. 

Quota in Promotions : A Cruel Joke ?

The word quota has gained more prominence since 2004. Quota for oppressed communities. Dr. Ambedkar really had genuine intentions when he said all this SC ST identity must be ridden off with in 10 years after passing the constitution. For most of the period after the political independence the country has been ruled by Congress and the backwardness still exists there is no denial. So there is a direct relation between Congress rule and non-development. The divisive politics played by Congress has cost this country a lot. But if we have to ask ourselves a question what is reason for the non-improvement of these oppressed communities? With no doubt it is due to our Grand Old party’s love with communal politics and the apparent benefits it has acquired by playing this.

Suddenly how they have decided that they have to provide quota in promotions. 2014 is an election year and we are at the fag of end of 2012, not sure if congress has started the campaign for 2014 elections. Let’s see then if these tricks would work. All remember what happened with UP elections, where congress started the campaign much early but drew flak and the trump card used was 4.5% minority quota. Cannot forget the darling of congress who tore up the manifesto of SP and did many ludicrous things, but the voters gave a fitting response. But by voting in SP voters have helped congress in a way, pity you citizens. Coming back to our original question is it reasonable to promote some body because he/she is from certain community? My conscience says no and people must be appraised based on their traits and their achievements which sounds to me quite appropriate and more than any thing else it is scientific. It’s an open secret that the quota in promotions is indeed a political stunt. This is worst than the spoil system (Please search for “spoil system” in web). We all know how USA suffered due to this patronage or spoil system. With the fearless patriots manning the key constitutional offices for e.g.: CAG congress thinks it cannot do its regular work i.e., corruption in governance. So creating a class of stooge would serve its purpose and to do that best method seems to be quota in promotions. While the trait rating system is prevalent in many western nations, it is a low point here that loyalty takes a front seat instead of professionalism and traits, more than any thing else results produced by the bureaucrats must be taken in to consideration.

No demanding problems of the day which country faces cannot gain attention of our underachiever prime minister, let it be dwindling economy, National security or other begging problems. But he some how picked up this irrelevant task to divert the attention of the country. And parties like BSP and SP do not want to miss this opportunity to draw some political mileage. No surprise that Washington Post called him a “Tragic Figure”. Every ruling party would try and implement new schemes or announce new schemes only when the elections are nearing. Let me take the example of DMK in Tamil Nadu with respect to helping people to build concrete houses, i.e., those who currently live in huts. This activity picked up speed only after 4 years of ruling. The intention is nothing but return of favor from voters in the upcoming elections which was round the corner and we know what response DMK got in elections in 2011. Narendra Modi is indeed an exception on aspects like these. Time has come for PM to prove every body wrong that he is not a somber personality but a decisive man and start concentrating on the most demanding and begging issues which the nation faces today, instead of picking up a non issue like this. And declare to this world by his actions that he is not a tragic figure indeed.
