Actions and Responsibility

Taliban are attacking Afghan police and military forces in Afghanistan.
Tehreek e Taliban Pakistan (TTP) are attacking police and military force in Pakistan.
Police and military are usually for protection of common people. But when they are attacked regularly, they no longer remain able to protect common people. Then we see the rise of crimes and other social evils.
Any movement or force who considers fighting with police and military forces bears the responsibility of every crime and social evil after their arrival.
But one problem is that these militants probably don't understand these responsibilities things. They are very simple minded, like zombies who refuse to think and consider the situation.
Most of the time, they have their own agenda and they will do any thing in their power to fulfill the agenda, no matter how many people die. While other times they follow some leaders blindly and do every kind of good and bad works on behalf of those leaders. They don't care who bad their actions are, they just follow the leaders.

If US Iran Nuclear Deal Fails

American politicians and media are trying their best to derail the US Iran Nuclear Deal. There are several reasons, but the sense of American superiority is playing a major role, the sense that Americans do anything they want.
When we look at the concerns in speeches of American politicians and talks on American media, we can easily see that the deal is between Americans and Iran. The P5 + 1 is only a show.
Americans are dragging around the other nations only to show that it is supported by others as well. But the other nations are silent.
If the deal fails, then the Iranian people will suffer, and the responsibility will be on extremist politicians of USA and irresponsible propagandist American media. At this point, Iranians are ready to reduce nuclear enrichment capability but then they will be forced to increase it as there will be no point. Iranians will suffer because they have rectified NPT and they are not allowed to benefit from it in any way.
Americans are shouting that the world should not trust Iranians who say that nuclear weapons unethical. But should the world trust Americans who were making a lot of noise about Iraqi WMD in 2003 and then attacked Iraq and found nothing? Americans know that the world has no other choice but to comply with Americans.
The world already distrust Americans after the Snowden spying scandal, and how Americans handled that. It has already started to affect American economy as the world no longer trusts American technology companies and products. The failure of US Iran nuclear deal will make the Americans even less likable and trustworthy to the world. And the world will try to come back on Americans in future in any way they find practical.
USA is giving the world an impression that it doesn't care about anyone and anything as long as its interests are involved. USA is losing its status as a champion of democracy and human rights. USA is also destroying its soft power by playing in hands of extremist politicians, religiously and racially motivated Israeli Jewish government, and religious extremist Saudi government. Americans are losing a lot by playing in wrong hands but they don't realize it and it is becoming very expensive to recover.

Power Projection is Aggression in Polite Words

I am reading a comment on an article by Armchair Officer who say:

The US military invading countries like Iraq and Afghanistan isn't deterrence, it's basically just power projection.

We can see that Power Projection is a very nice little technical term, with no bad connotative meanings. Does this means that aggression is not a bad concept anymore? Or is attacking weaker nations is no longer morally questionable by the technical-policy makers of the Western world?

Good Human Nature

It is human nature to hate felony and love good deeds. In almost all movies made, novels written, and stories told, heroes are depicted as good doers and the antagonists as bad people.
In conflicts between groups of any size and structure (whether they are two individuals, families, teams, armies, states, countries, continents, or worlds), each party sees the other as bad, and therefore the war is to reduce the bad influence of the other party.
This shows that human nature by itself is good. It only needs to be properly guided and managed to resolve conflicts.
If each party in conflict thinks out of the box and considers the views, points and the reason behind the war of the opposing party, then the conflicts can easily be resolved peacefully.
For the resolving conflicts peacefully by considering the views of the other party, farsighted leaders and politicians are required. This also needs education in common people so that they can think for themselves and humanity, their present and their future.

Allegedly Sponsoring of Terrorism by Iran and USA

On the website of Republican Senator from Arkansas, Tom Cotton has released a statement on incoming US-Iran nuclear deal. The statement summary is here on his website.
In the statement, he calls Iran an adversary (enemy) while claiming: terror-sponsoring, Islamist Iranian regime. This statement seems to be far fetched when we see the role of Saudi-e-Arab, USE, and Qata in the region, all of which are very close allies of USA. They are the ones funding ISIS in Iraq which USA itself has described a terrorist organization. Even in Yemen, they are bombing Al-Houthis but are not touching Al-Qaeda there. And don't forget that Al-Qaeda was responsible for 911 attacks.
The Senator Tom Cotton is also presenting USA as an angel who has never supported any terrorist ever, or USA is currently not supporting any terrorists at this time either. It is USA who has been arming Syrian rebels against government which resulted in a bloody civil war. It was also USA who armed and supported Libyan rebels against government which has buried Libya in in a deep fog of civil war. And don't forget about dropped high-tech weapons to ISIS by US, Baloch rebels in Pakistan, and secret support of Jundallah against Iran, and open unconditional support of any Israeli action against Palestinians whether its new illegal settlements of foreign Jews or carpet bombing civilians.
On this point, the "honorable" Senator might say that every country has to support anyone for its interests. But when USA is doing it then it is ok, but when others are doing it while making USA unhappy, then it is not ok. This is called American logic. Anything that is good for Americans is ethical and anything that goes American interests is illegal.

China in Afghanistan after USA

I just read an article China’s power play in Afghanistan written by Ahmed Rashid.
Ahmad Rashid talks about the retreat of USA from and Chinese entry into Afghanistan.
It talks that China is trying to bring peace in Afghanistan by pulling different parties in the conflict together. The parties are Taliban, Afghan Government, and Pakistan. China wants to do investment in Afghanistan in minerals.

China is trying to bring peace to a region destroyed by USSR, and then again by USA. USA first came to Afghanistan with no homework about the Afghan culture and mindset and failed miserably.

This time, the Afghan discussion has parties of Taliban, Afghan Government, Pakistan who has influence on Taliban and a long spurious border with Afghanistan and has millions of Afghan refugees for more then three decades, and China.

In past USA tried bringing India into the equation and Pakistan out while knowing that India has even no border with Afghanistan, but failed. Its purpose was to reduce Pakistani influence. Now even USA is not in the Afghan discussions.

USA also refused to negotiate with Taliban, and tried to completely destroy them. They failed and now Taliban is still a force and USA is flying out. On the contrary, Chinese are considering Taliban as a major player and think that there will be no peace in Afghanistan and the region without Taliban agreement.
USA played the game of guns and refused to bring everybody to tables and now China is doing the table bringing.

USA focus was on security while economy and social issues were not in its main policy. On the other hand, China wants peace and security for economic and social well-being of everyone in the region. If China succeeds in bringing peace and prosperity to Afghanistan, then it will show that the world is going into a positive direction after USA decline as a super power.

Chinese approach for the region is very different from that of USA. China wants peace at its west and trade with the region, and a trade route to adjacent regions. On the other hand, USA wanted to show to the region its power and superiority. Chinese approach has good news for everyone in the region, while the American approach brought only misery and destruction.

One other point about Chinese approach is that it is not intervention in the internal issues of other countries. It is a dialog for asking others to get their things together and work for welfare of the people in the region. Chinese even don't care who rules the Afghanistan. On the other hand, USA approach was direct and indirect intervention in internal affairs of every country in the region. If any country talked against Americans actions in the region, bad consequences were waiting for them. Americans acted like bullies from outside. If anyone who Americans didn't like had government in a region, then Americans tried very hard to oust them, even if it meant military invasion and economic destruction in the region.

Lets hope that Chinese struggle in the region for peace are successful.

Cultural Privileges and Responsibilities

The current western culture is considered more advanced and civilized. One major factor is mass education and tolerance for opposite opinions.
When western intellectuals talk about other cultures and nations, they emphasize the two points. When a culture is considered superior, then there is also a need for the other cultures to embrace the values of the superior culture.
Western politicians and intellectuals are talking to spread the good values of western culture all over the world. It was the Bush Senior New World Order, export of democracy by Bush Junior, defeating evils of communism and the current war on terror: all are the spread of good values of western culture.

In the mean times, Western politicians and intellectuals ignore a few thing:

• With privilege comes responsibilities.Any wrong step on Western side reduces good perception of the their cultural values.
• Wrong decisions of current politicians and good decisions of past politicians in West points to the decline of the good values in western culture itself with time.
• Most of the time, Western countries sacrifice the good western values on their national economic and political interests. This leads to the perception that western cultural values can't pragmatically guide a country in their political and foreign policies.
• The above point also tell the world that Western nations usually don't care much about the good Western values when it comes to political and economic interests.
• One can also say from the previous points that the Western cultural values are in danger not from competition from other cultures but from the policies of West itself.

Killing without a Fuss

Americans kill people of different nationalities through drone strikes and apparently nothing happens. There are no major discussions and debates about the legal issues of killing others without a due process.
But during that killing spree, when they kill an American citizen, then something happens. A legal debate starts about the procedure through which they kill Americans. Still no proper debate about killing non-Americans.
I am a non-American and I fear that some day Americans will kill me and then they will synthesize some story about me and prove me a bad guy, possibly dangerous to Americans interests. The current blog post can also serve a starting point for Americans to start with.

Friends at Gunpoint and Fair Game

Friends at Gunpoint and Fair Game

Americans are strange. They make friends at gun point and then expect a fair game. How can Americans expect Pakistanis to be their true friends when the only options for Pakistanis are to either comply or going to stone-age.

Photo modified after obtained from http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2014/05/22/restaurant-with-no-weapons-no-concealed-firearms-sign-robbed-at-gunpoint/

Pakistan agreed to comply with Americans and agreed to provide logistics, airspace, airbases, and other supports. Pakistanis demanded expenses in providing the supports as it was difficult to bear all the load on its own. Strangely, Americans called the expenses paid to Pakistan as aid.
Americans provided aid in past but the channels were not clear and the American aid money ended in American and European banks by corrupt administrators. And this is the case with almost all developing countries.
Americans were going to leave Afghanistan behind with all its problems and run away, like in all Americans wars after WWII. Pakistan was the country supporting several million Afghans for several decades and Pakistan is the country to deal with the future Afghanistan. Americans would run away and leave everything to Pakistan. Pakistan has to keep relations with all parties in Afghanistan intact in order to deal with them properly in future, when America is gone from Afghanistan.
Americans are asking Pakistan to deal with Afghans as Americans want, while Americans are not going to be here for long. They wanted Pakistan to stop negotiations with militants and blaming it for double game, while Americans were later trying to bring Taliban to negotiations table themselves in Qatar. Americans were asking Pakistan to forget about the past history and deal with Afghans as short-sighted Americans want.
Americans were in Afghanistan to finish Taliban and they failed. You can't completely destroy by weapons and wars a big organization motivated by ideology and possessing large support of local population. Americans were failed and they lost trillion dollars war. They had to blame someone for their failures. And they found Pakistan an easier scapegoat. That is why Pakistan was blamed as playing double game and is responsible for failed for American war in Afghanistan.

Contradicting own Ideologies

Separation between church and state: this means keeping religion as a private matter of a person and not involve the state in religious matter, and not letting religion involved in state matters.
USA constitution is very clear about this.
There are several measures to ensure this.
But when we look at the Israel and USA policies to each other, we see a stark contradiction in the policy of keeping state and religion separate.
The very existence of Israel is based on a combination of religion and racism.
Israeli policies to its neighbors and other minorities have a major impact from Judaism. 
The unconditional support of Israel by USA is solely based on care for religion and race.

But one can say that the above contradiction is due to the problematic politics in USA.
This explanation raises another question:
USA is a preacher of democracy and good governance and transparency.
When its own politics leads it against its own ideology, then how credible is the USA own democracy.
If its own democracy is not so good, then why preach to others and even trying to export the democratic system to other countries, like into Iraq and Afghanistan?

Losing Mojo in a Bad Way

Almost all USA allies joined China in development of Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), despite intensive diplomatic pressure from USA. This event hints to some points:

• USA declares China as a rival and enemy openly.
• USA most allies don't like dictation from USA on most issues, particularly China issue.
• China is winning the game of attracting USA allies despite US struggle against it.
• When UK joined the AIIB, it was a very strange event, because it never took any major step or agreement without USA permission since the WWII.
• China apparently doesn't want to confront USA on any major issues, but USA wants and trying to find ways to engage China.
• China states that the AIIB is for development of infrastructure in developing countries, in which task the major USA led organizations like IMF, World Bank, and Asian Development Bank have failed.
• Unintentionally, USA also delivered a message to the developing world that it is not interested in development in other countries if it is not in support of direct US financial interests.
• The above point will damage the soft power of USA in all over the world.

To improve the soft power, USA needs to reverse the side-effects of its behavior regarding the Chinese AIIB. For this,

• USA can endorse the AIIB openly.
• USA can also provide some funding to AIIB, and some guidance and technical help for its proper operations.
• It can find out some scapegoats in its government and blame them on destroying the good image of USA in front of the whole world.

Natural Alliances

Natural and Perfect Alliance based on Genocide of Local Population

In thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, Europeans got into Americas and Australia.
They performed a perfect genocide of the local population.
The genocide was so perfect that within a two to three centuries, the indigenous people became a very weak minority.

Fast forward to current age:
Immediately after second world war, extremist and racist Jew (not all Jews) all around the world came together in Palestine in a very systematic way.
With the help of European powers, they established the state of Israel.
They tried to perform genocide of the local population, but geology and geopolitics didn't allow it.
The remaining local population escaped from the genocide to the neighboring countries.
After one decade of Israel creation, the European powers backed off a little.
USA from North America, which is the region of a perfect genocide, became an unconditional ally of the state of Israel.
USA is an unconditional ally of Israel, but Israel is not an unconditional ally of USA. Isn't it strange?
Now a days, in USA, the white supremacists, mostly Republicans, are the main supporters of Israel. One can say that the failed genocide of the local population by Israeli Jews attracts sympathy from the white supremacists of USA whose forefathers had performed a perfect genocide. And this makes USA and Israel natural and perfect allies.

Taking Risks in Others Wars

 Blaming American Soldiers and Officers for Avoiding Risks

Thomas E. Ricks

Thomas E. Ricks from foreignpolicy.com writes in this article that American soldiers and officers were not willing to take risk in wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, and that is the reason Americans lost the wars.
Thomas E. Ricks is probably from rich white elite class with no child in military.

Almost everybody will take a risk if own homeland is attacked. That is why Iraqis and Afghans didn't let the USA succeed in the war, because they were taking a lot of risks, because America had attacked their countries.

And no body will take risks in wars whose main beneficiaries are blood-sucking elites. When Americans attacked and captured Iraq and Afghanistan, it was not that Iraqis and Afghans had attacked USA. No. Americans were talking about attacking them for several years and at last they captured and invented some excuses to carry out the long wished attacks. Americans were very eager to test their new weapon systems and powerful army.

But, we can all see now that the attacks didn't gained for Americans what they wished. Because the motive of the attacks were false. They American solders and officers were deceived by American politicians, journalists, intellectuals and elites. American soldiers and officers were pushed into two wars with no clear moral justifications and objectives. And clear moral justifications and objectives makes everybody to take huge risks.

Americans spent hundreds of billions of dollars on weapons in Iraq and Afghanistan. They used very little on destroyed infrastructure construction and public welfare of the war struck people of Iraq and Afghanistan. Even the very little resources USA used on the people of subjected countries, it was consumed in corruption while Americans were watching.

Iraqi and Afghan people knew that Americans were there for destruction only and for no good reason and intentions. American soldiers and officers also knew this. So, this guilt was enough for the soldiers and officers to avoid taking risks, because they are also human and they also have families.

Should America be Trusted

Should the World Trust USA

America conducts drone strikes through its secret intelligence agencies in several countries killing score of innocent people along with the extra-judicial killing of the ones they want. America don't care what UNO and the world says about this.
Americans tried to export democracy to Iraq and Afhganistan and they are now in worst civil war.
Americans spy on all the world, even its closest allies, and don't intend to stop this.
They steel business secrets from companies in their friendly nations in Europe to advance their own industry and blame others repeatedly for doing the same act.
Americans support religious extremists in Saudi-e-Arab because of money while preaching secularism and liberalism and democracy to the world.
Americans support Israel unconditionally based on race and religion and money and talk to the world about secularism and multiculturalism and civilization only to attract brain-drainage.
Americans support every dictator who suppresses his people and provide financial incentives to Americans. Americans close its eyes on any human-rights violation if money is involved.
Americans produce the biggest per-capita green-house gases and pollution in the world, and their politicians claim that the global warming is a hoax.
Americans have the most advanced nuclear weapon program in the world, and their nuclear weapons annual budget is not reducing with time. They have dedicated their biggest super computers to nuclear weapons program. In the mean time, they impose their policies on any country they want. Then at the end, they tell the other countries that nuclear weapons are bad and no country should try to get them. And if they try, America will bomb them.
USA is a bully. It will tell you to be either his ally in a specific task or get ready to be bombed to the stone age.
USA has its hundreds of thousands of military personal in several countries around the world, to secure its interests. But it has minimum forces as part of UN Peacekeeping  force.

American people are good people but they are brainwashed and kept in dark. They claim to not trust Iran with nuclear technology while it is saying to be not interested in nuclear weapons. It needs nuclear technology for energy production to reduce pollution due to oil burning for electricity. But Americans are ready to bomb them if they don't give up.

Now, a few questions should be asked from Americans and the world:

• Can America be trusted?
• Should the world trust USA?
• Is world safe from USA?

Media Brainwashing and Polls

Media Brainwashing and Polls in American Population

Almost all America media outlets repeatedly tell Americans that Iran is bad, Iran is deceiving, Iran is untrustworthy, Iran is terror-sponsor, Iran is dangerous, Iran is this and Iran is that. American people hear this from so-called scholars and experts who take huge sum from the media to tell the people that Iran is bad. By the way, is Iran really bad? Who knows and who cares?
At the end, American media conduct polls: Do you trust Iran?
Obviously, answer will be No.
By the way, in the poll, those people are asked who will not be able to locate Iran in the world map. 
There is only one image of Iran in Americans mind, and that is what the media tells them. So, they don't trust Iran.
Isn't this brainwashing? 

War of Drugs in Afghanistan

Taliban had completely stopped opium cultivation and product in their time, but when USA and NATO arrived, the opium cultivation and production started again, and now Afghanistan is the biggest opium producer. USA and NATO couldn't stop even the opium production, while Taliban were successful in stopping the ugly drug production. Some people say that it was USA which restarted opium production to handle the re-rising Russia by infecting its population. And it is not a big secret that the biggest victim of Afghan opium is Russian population.

So, a few questions arise:

• Why couldn't USA successfully stop opium production?
• USA spends hundreds of billions of dollars each year on fighting Taliban, but couldn't' provide economic incentive and alternatives to Afghan population to not cultivate opium. Why?
• Taliban were successful in stopping opium production, but USA arrival restarted it. Was this happening with USA consent? 
• The biggest victim of Afghan opium is Russian population. Isn't it provide a strong argument that it was USA to stop Russia from rising by infecting its population with drugs?
• Why westerns media thinks that USA is an angel and can't be the drugs producer?
• Even if the USA is not the drug producer in Afghanistan, can it be completely cleared from the blame?

Pakistani Double Game with USA

USA had threatened Pakistan to send it to stone age if it didn't comply with specific demands from USA at start of the so called War on Terror in 2001. To USA amazement, Pakistan agreed to every demand. A few years later, USA started complaining about double game from Pakistan by helping some Taliban groups in secret.
Some questions arise:

• Was Pakistan really playing a double game?

• Pakistan was forced in the war it didn't want. Wasn't a double game expected from Pakistan?

• Pakistan was held at gun point, why would USA not expect a double game, or stab-in-back from Pakistan?

• Why USA didn't do anything major to stop Pakistan from the double game?

The double game costed USA the whole mulit-trillion dollar war in Afghanistan. The Taliban, who were fighting with primitive weapons, could not be properly defeated in more than 13 years of war. USA and NATO forces fought in Afghanistan for more than 13 years, and spent trillions of tax-payers dollars, but didn't got much.
USA and NATO couldn't even stop the opium production in Afghanistan which had restarted after their arrival.
So, the whole war on terror in Afghanistan was a complete failure. And apparently, USA didn't tried to save the war at all.
