Global Issues with Impact on Population – Part 1

June 10, 2015

By Padmini Arhant

The topic is a reflection on the Contemporary Ruling Class Declining Supremacy And People’s Odyssey For Freedom.

1. RegionNorth Africa

Yemen – Saudi Arabia invasion with United States, Israel and other western allies support killing scores of people is a sign of decadency caught in a whirlpool with aggressors heading towards pitfall.

Libya – Hegemony message to the people having transformed the nation into terror haven following the fall of the western ally, the despotic regime is stability possible only under iron fist rule conforming to imperial doctrine.

Egypt – Authoritarianism being hegemony hallmark, the citizens deposed governments and chieftains are not only protected but also reinstated to remind Egyptians that birth of democracy would be aborted at the cost of their lives and livelihood.

Tunisia – The move towards democracy subsequent to overthrow of yet another western ally and autocratic ruler consistently disrupted with political assassination of people choice leader confirming hegemony preference for repressive governance.

Sudan – The oil rich nation and the largest country split into two states – Sudan and South Sudan in accordance with divide and conquer imperial strategy.

South Sudan – Hegemony installed government and opposition pitted against each other leaving thousands dead and millions fleeing villages and towns for survival.

Sudanese plight persists beyond Darfur ethnic cleansing.

Morocco, Algeria and Western Sahara – Hegemony with key allies like Saudi Arabia, Qatar and alike funded terror networks infiltration – al Qaeda and offshoots presence in these countries maintained to sabotage peaceful existence.

—————————————————————————————————

2. RegionWest Africa

Mali – Gold, ivory and other goods comprise the main resources of the nation. UNSC P5+1 authorized military intervention by the former colonizer, France under the pretext to rescue nation from civil war having removed the earlier government through military coup besides curbing the natives – Tuareg tribes from seeking fair living conditions as indigenous groups and citizens of the West African nation needlessly brought under hegemony shelling boosting defense stockpiles demand.

Mali was also a victim of biological warfare – with the outbreak of deadly Ebola virus claiming many lives in that country.

Ghana – Also known for possession of precious metals gold, ivory and minerals – sharing impact from political turmoil in neighboring Ivory Coast renamed in the European occupancy as Côte d’Ivoire with hegemony approved political factions behind prolonged instability.

Ivory Coast economic fortune – oil and gas, fresh water, fertile agricultural land and pineapple plantations among many natural resources that deprives the people from preventing foreign i.e. hegemony interference in political affairs.

Burkina Faso – The nation remains constantly under siege post assassination of the popular leader Thomas Sankara for defying hegemony intrusion. The nation found with abundant minerals and marble attracts direct western involvement.

Nigeria – Another oil wealth state forced to contend with hegemony created Boko Haram terror outfit to conduct false flag events and disrupt normal life nationwide.

Nigerian leadership compliance with hegemony directions confirms influence over politics, economy and social problems contributing to religious confrontations between Christians and Muslims along with tribal feuds persisting to stifle national unity.

Niger – Hegemony chosen territory to invade Iraq in 2003 is not necessarily excluded from hegemonic goals due to oil and mining enrichment.

Senegal and Sierra Leone – The French colonies then and even now with France extensive engagement throughout West and Central Africa cannot be ignored. Sierra Leone in the aftermath of worst genocide is profitable to arms dealer and weapons supply from major powers in exchange for oil in Africa.

Sierra Leone affected with ravaging civil wars and Ebola epidemic is the result of hegemony policy to incapacitate effective self-governance in Africa.

Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Gambia, Mauritania, Liberia, Togo, Island of Saint Helena, Sao Tome and Principe are faced with United States, EU and Pan African cohorts fomenting corruption and chaos via war zones for economic and strategic dominance.

The people in all of the above destinations are the victims of hegemony quest for global supremacy.

Poverty, hunger, disease, illiteracy, despair and destitution is deemed the destiny to benefit the profiteers of violence, greed and feudalism.

The segment will resume with focus on all nations in different regions of the world.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

Yemen – Houthi Movement and Hegemony backed Invasion

March 29, 2015

By Padmini Arhant

The North African nation rich in oil resources after terminating hegemony installed dictatorship under former President Ali Abdullah Saleh for more than three decades followed by exiled President Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi – yet to be relieved from oppression with external control over political, economic and national issues.

Houthi movement inheriting the founder leader Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi name and political cause and subsequently with leader Ansarullah martyrdom to free Yemen from foreign intrusion is targeted by western backed regimes to maintain hegemony style repressive governance.

Houthi uprising invigorated with hegemony role in destruction of lives and decimation through terror attacks and authoritarian rule via puppet governments thus far.

Hegemony authorized Saudi invasion in coalition with Gulf Cooperation Council to deter Yemen from political freedom expedite aggressors demise.

The ongoing Saudi attacks against Yemen with hegemony approval is a desperate act to prevent similar revolution in Saudi Arabia and across Middle East even though the end of despotism and totalitarianism beginning at the helm i.e. hegemony is near. 

The use of brute force against vulnerable population in Yemen or elsewhere is the trend ignoring irreversible impact on the source and catalysts in the greed-motivated violence worldwide.

The latest Saudi assault at hegemony behest reveals insecurity with the culmination of fear and rage dictating illegal intervention to gain access over Yemen’s economic endowments and political system.

Such indulgence is indicative of arsonists’ fate in self-immolation. Those seeking satisfaction from others suffering eventually succumb to detrimental course.

Yemen citizens across the spectrum coming together to defend sovereignty and territorial integrity critical in bringing belligerence and corrupt forces dominance to conclusion.

The recent developments in Yemen call for popular defiance to foreign occupation in the form of proxy representation for permanent subjugation.

Saudi Arabia and the rest involved in military and terror operation in Yemen lack credibility considering legacy in denying democracy besides human rights violations in the domestic and international domain.

Hegemony and contingency unequivocal fall accelerated with interference and instigation of unrest in every part of the world.

Those committed towards ruinous strategy to own peril are delusional in perceiving sinking as sailing on calm waters despite debilitating status to rough seas turbulence.

Independence is persisting struggle world over and complicity in the surrender of nation to hegemonic goals continues to contributors’ decline. 

Yemen’s solidarity to liberate nation from regional and foreign adversarial engagement is paramount and people pledge to protect national interests important to thwart hegemony ambitions to exacerbate crisis.

In the absence of integrity and human values, hegemony and allies in Yemen warfare rely on deception to justify death and devastation endured by civilians in the country.

Anything counterproductive ultimately leads to the origin dissolution and vanquished in accordance with natural law.

Yemen could overcome challenges with determination to prevail in the conflict. Arab community unanimous rejection of their governments’ cooperation with Saudi Arabia and hegemony could avert tension escalation in the region.

Likewise western society dissent on warfare under false pretexts is imperative for global peace and security. 

Wishing Yemen republic success in restoring peace and political stability.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

CAR – France Illegal Invasion Along With AU And UN Intervention Exacerbate Crises

January 18, 2014

By Padmini Arhant

The unnecessary communal clashes between Muslims and Christians in Central African Republic has provided false pretexts for former colonial power France to invade the nation enriched in mineral resources with UNSC authorizing African Union and UN troops presence in the war torn country.

Since France illegal intervention in Central African Republic on December 5, 2013 similar to operation in West African Mali and North African Libya in 2012 and 2011 respectively, the situation in foreign powers invaded states has deteriorated contributing to humanitarian crises and political turmoil.

Yet the western proposal to deploy more military personnel continues with EU now considering sending 1000 forces to Central African Republic to foment further violence.

The imperial agenda to militarize African continent claiming to restore law and order proved catastrophic at national and regional level notwithstanding destabilization justified as democratic means creating chaos and confusion wherever and whenever possible.

Central African Republic in semblance with neighboring states has invited problems prompting foreign interference rather than seeking reconciliation within setting aside political and religious differences in entire population interest.

The Seleka fighters having ousted former President Francois Bozize and President Michel Djotodia recent resignation evidently promote colonial aspirations declaring CAR   – failed state in the inability to end externalized internal conflict.

Any nation dealing with bloodshed from sectarianism and ethnic confrontations need to prohibit weapons supply to rebels,  militias and terror networks while adopting non-violence strategy for resolution with legitimate opposition unlike foreign backed  disingenuous representation. 

The doctrine to settle disputes among tribes, minority and majority segments with foreign aggression involving military outfits and air raids designed to favor prominent powers defense industry vying to escalate tensions in war ravaged nations through constant flow of arms and ammunitions to all sides in the form of generous military aid.

Central African Republic Parliament preparing to elect transitional leadership exercising diligence in choosing interim government pledged to national unity could be instrumental in averting foreign occupation.

The prolonged combat attributed to rising death toll and massive displacement of people fleeing villages and towns in the ongoing unrest.

The trend to subjugate nations cares less about civilian casualties and human suffering resulting from foreign intrusion espousing dominance for unlimited access to natural endowments.

Central African Republic infighting obviously facilitates foreign expansionism leading to surrender of sovereignty.

Instead members from Muslim, Christian and other denominations recognition of national strength remaining in solidarity and accordingly unanimous agreement to disavow hostility amongst them could be the preliminary step towards saving lives that in return would guarantee peace and stability.

The political system demonstrating sincere commitment to citizens’ safety and improving economic conditions utilizing national wealth could deter domestic and foreign threats to topple governments engaged in positive development.

Corruption being integral part of dysfunctional political performance, earnest measures introducing transparency and accountability without exception is fundamental to initiate and implement reforms across the spectrum.

Again political disturbance often emanating from parallel powers quest for global control could be thwarted identifying elements responsible for disruption and appropriate approach to prevent precedence in the near future.

The people in North Central African country – CAR deserve peaceful existence with national potential to alleviate poverty, hunger and various economic as well as social woes that are self-inflicted allowing foreign imposition of rules undermining independent status.

Best Wishes to Central African Republic in overcoming challenges with unified resolve and acceptance of national diversity as an asset not liability in republic empowerment.

Peace and Prosperity to Central African Republic!

Peace to all! 

Thank you.

South Sudan – Internal Conflict With External Influence

December 18, 2013

By Padmini Arhant

The ongoing clashes among Sudan People’s Liberation Army (SPLA) rivals in Jonglei state capital Bor military camp resulting in 19 civilian casualties and an estimated 500 deaths along with 13,000 or more forced to flee the town is regrettable and those behind the violence bear responsibility.

Political disagreements cannot be resolved through innocent bloodshed and disputes are to be settled via communication and peaceful negotiations rather than targeting citizens of the country.

President Salva Kiir and opposition leader Riek Machar demonstrating leaderships by advising respective troops, political groups and loyalists to refrain from violent confrontations could restore relative calm and stability to the volatile situation.

Any major political differences and concerns over national issues like widespread corruption and economic problems exchanged in people assembly following appropriate procedures would be productive and perhaps lead to positive outcome sparing population and nation from spiraling turmoil.

The former deputy Riek Machar militarily challenging incumbent leader Salva Kiir evidently threatens national security not to mention the humanitarian suffering involving members of both ethnicity i.e. Nuer and Dinka representing the two leaders in the burgeoning crises.

South Sudan constant engagement in warfare deprives people the opportunity to experience freedom and the nation from economic growth despite the oil resources in possession.

Political ambitions to claim or remain in power do not guarantee self-satisfaction especially when the strategy is premised on undemocratic militaristic course with citizens forced to pay the price.

Moreover, such government formation would have difficulty winning public trust and confidence due to lack of credibility reflective in the means to accomplish goals.

The external influence in the conflict could not be ruled out conforming to the contemporary trend fomenting political chaos to facilitate weapons supply to all sides until eventual destabilization. 

President Salva Kiir and opposition leader Riek Machar as well as SPLA commanders are urged to renounce fighting and instead return to civil discourse exemplifying sincere commitment to citizens safety and national interest.

The contenders vying for office could always prove eligibility utilizing the democratic process with electoral mandate confirming legitimacy unlike the prevalent measures to seize authority.

South Sudan leaderships and warring factions reconciliation is critical ending the internal unrest to maintain law and order with national defense force safeguarding territorial integrity and citizens safety.

President Salva Kiir administration and opposition leader Riek Machar collective efforts diffusing tensions in the troubled areas of the country could prevent escalation nationwide.

South Sudan cannot afford to evolve into Darfur and peaceful resolution is the only alternative to save the nation from civil war. 

With condolences to bereaved families and prayers for the victims affected in the recent setbacks,

Wishing people in South Sudan peace and recovery from deteriorating political condition.

Peace to all! 

Thank you.

South Africa – Tribute to Leader Nelson Mandela

December 6, 2013

By Padmini Arhant

Heartfelt Condolences to the family and citizens in South Africa on the passing away of South African leader and former President Nelson Mandela.

South Africa like the rest of the nations in the continent and the world under colonialism experienced slavery and discrimination denying the population life with dignity.

During the foreign rule in the mineral especially diamond rich nation, the occupiers treated natives with bias depriving them the right to exist let alone have fair opportunity in their homeland. 

South Africa then became the epitome of apartheid with segregation and subjugation policy.

Whenever atrocities and crimes against innocent citizens reach optimum the end result leads to aggressors’ exit or authoritarianism expiration.

The foreign rulers human rights violation and violence creating hostile environment for locals stoke national sentiments to protect individual and society from further abuse.

Synonymous to most colonized nations, South Africa needed strong leadership and a patriot to inspire compatriots to rise to the occasion and free the nation from status quo.

These qualities along with deep concern for social equality and justice were the fine attributes of the leader Nelson Mandela remaining steadfast in the freedom struggle including imprisonment lasting nearly three decades not without hardships and extreme conditions exemplified dedication to just cause. 

The influence of Mahatma Gandhithe non-violence and civil disobedience pioneer eloquently protesting apartheid in South Africa promoted peaceful movement against injustice and with South Africa’s leader Nelson Mandela adopting peace in the relentless pursuit for independence led to foreign occupation conclusion.

South African leader and the first democratically elected President Nelson Mandela will be remembered for extraordinary contributions in the liberation of the country and people challenged with prejudice and disenfranchisement under foreign authority. 

The former President Nelson Mandela as the leader continues to be the indomitable spirit in reviving hope to the oppressed and marginalized being the vast majority across the globe.

May God Bless the departed leader’s soul to rest in peace.

Peace to South Africa!

Peace to all!

Thank you.

Egypt – Peaceful Reconciliation in National Interest

August 18, 2013

By Padmini Arhant

The latest development in Egypt with army decision to exercise restraint in crowd dispersal operations and Muslim Brotherhood leaders on their part to cancel nationwide demonstrations for security reasons is the way forward to extinguish fire ignited in the burgeoning crises.

Egypt was unnecessarily subjected to turmoil otherwise averted sparing innocent lives all around.

Nonetheless national reconciliation forum inviting all groups for constructive participation could produce viable outcome.

The key factors are transparency and inclusivity facilitating people choices in governance barring external interventions reflected in status quo would prevent event recurrence.

Public referendum on electoral process and constitutional framework prohibiting abuse of power in all branches of government including army interception in civilian rule is the preliminary step towards preserving democracy.

Egypt citizens have suffered enough and now is the time for leaderships in the army, political system and civil society to create opportunity via peaceful engagement in rebuilding the nation long deprived of economic growth and development.

The arduous journey faced with obstacles due to foreign and regional control could lead to destination i.e. republic governed democracy upon Egypt exercising self-determination rights that is inalienable to all citizens on earth.

National subjugation by foreign powers happens with complicity among members in position of authority.

However, the tradition need not continue considering negative consequences from such cooperation hindering real progress.

Instead the leaderships pledging to defend sovereignty along with sincere commitment exemplified in resolving issues prioritizing national interest would guarantee prospective future.

Egypt population deserves breakthrough from violence and political impasse posing impediments in the path to peace and functioning democracy representing all in the country rather than selective majority.

The solutions to problems lie in sharing common goals with mutual respect and understanding that could ease tensions necessary for general consensus on national policy such as constitution amendment, political and economic reform as well as social inequality.

Egypt modern civilization has great potentiality to implement changes and achievements made possible only through peaceful means allowing diverse ideas to strengthen democratic foundation.

Once again, the leaders across the spectrum are urged to disavow counterproductive strategies, renounce violence and adopt peace initiatives for multidimensional recovery.

Wishing Egypt citizens and leaders success in restoring calm and stability critical for national endeavors.

Peace to Egypt!

Peace to all!

Thank you.

Egypt – Peaceful Resolution To Political Crises Save Lives And Restore Stability

August 14, 2013

By Padmini Arhant

The casualties reported in recent clashes between pro Morsi supporters and security personnel are regrettable and evidently not in Egypt interest.

Prolonging stalemate unnecessarily foment violence and discord that could otherwise be ended with agreement on national reconciliation forum.

The western and regional powers funded and manufactured confrontation is yet another display of anti-peace strategy embarked on favoring sectarianism over secularism using religion as means to polarize society.

United States appointment of ambassador Robert Ford to Egypt perceived counterproductive and clarifies ongoing unrest considering the emissary trajectory in deployment of death squads in disguise to create rivalry and escalate tensions among groups in the western orchestrated destabilization agenda.

Egypt leaderships in the interim administration and Muslim Brotherhood are obligatory to avert foreign exploitation of political standoff the nation could do without to save lives and lead the country towards civil engagement.

Any reluctance to amicable settlement would prove the parties loyalty to sources behind destruction of the state for hegemonic goals with loyalists abandoned later upon achievement.

The immediate priority to prevent bloodshed is to identify the terror agents working on foreign forces behalf and apprehending them for investigation and lawful action.

Both sides bear responsibility to disavow ties with national foes fostering chaos and carnage for undue advantage aimed at further subjugation of people.

The current situation provides opportunity to external and internal elements against Egyptian liberation holding the entire population hostage to political crises.

Western leaderships in partnership with dictatorial regimes sponsor governments amenable to proxy governance implementing hegemony policies in domestic and foreign affairs.

United States at Israel’s behest authorized Egypt military SCAF to assume power in 2011 post Mubarak ouster and introduced then Presidential candidate Mohamed Morsi representing Muslim Brotherhood as the viable choice in the so-called democratic election held amid violent crackdown limiting the possibility for suitable options in the first electoral process.

Subsequently the nation submerged in continuous turmoil with ex-President Morsi and Muslim Brotherhood failure to address security problems and political reform.

The government inefficiency prompted peaceful demonstration demanding effective measures on core issues confronting the nation.

The deposed Morsi administration lack of remedial response to burgeoning political and economic challenges combined with misplaced priority to recruit Takfiris in terrorism against Syria essentially led to status quo conforming to Unites States and allies stratagem.

The caretaker government under SCAF and former President Morsi represented Muslim Brotherhood aided and promoted by United States espouse doctrine not necessarily in Egypt benefit.

Egypt belongs to all Egyptians regardless of individual identity and accordingly fair political representation imperative to alleviate legitimate public concerns on relevant issues unlike foreign introduced or aligned factions emergence seizing opportunistic moment to mantle of power having not participated in overthrow of oppressive Mubarak rule or delivering justice to victims of persecution.

Egypt in solidarity rejecting outside intervention in sovereign matter and exercising self-determination rights is the way forward to establish republic governed democracy devoid of militarism and fundamentalism.

Any political groups and entities declining peace and constructive discourse to bring hostility to conclusion obviously not pledged to national service.

The leaders on all sides are urged to set aside differences and grievances with a determination to heal the nation and enable multidimensional recovery.

Patriotism best demonstrated in defending not compromising national sovereignty.

Best Wishes to Egypt citizens across the spectrum for a successful political outcome encompassing the needs of nation at large.

Peace to Egypt!

Peace to all!

Thank you.

Egypt – Crises Resolution For Republic Rule

August 10, 2013

By Padmini Arhant

The former President Morsi supporters ongoing sit in protests contributing to political impasse rather than ending the dispute.

In the western and regional partners manufactured Egypt crises,

The clear intentions are to prolong unrest and deny Egyptians self-determination rights to their political future.

The western powers – United States, Britain, Israel and EU along with regional allies Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE and Turkey interventional policies serving respective vested interests care less about Egypt citizens and more about reining control over North Africa and Middle East.

Israel using United States taxpayers funded annual aid $1.5 billion to Egypt military keen on preserving Camp David accord whereby Egypt expected to remain subservient and continue subsidized gas supply to Israel at Egyptians expense.

Additionally cooperation with Israel in maintaining Gaza fortress blocking passage on Rafah crossing to beleaguered Palestinians across Sinai Peninsula is enforced with instigated violence and terror attacks on Egypt soldiers and security personnel.

United States obstinacy to proceed with controversial military assistance i.e. $1.5 billion to Egypt at American families costs considers the quid pro quo convenient to usurp power in the region.

Britain as the imperial relic having introduced Muslim Brotherhood to scuttle democratic aspirations favors proxy governance under the guise of democracy or alternatively military appointed administration protecting western engineered coup d’état leaving the nation in eternal turmoil.

EU positioning as intermediary between Egypt military SCAF and ousted President Morsi essentially fulfilling hegemony demands on strategic dominance despite EU failure to resolve myriad problems confronting Europe.

Meanwhile, Arab states like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, Kuwait and Turkey striving to defend oppressive rule in their domain offer generous monetary contributions as incentives including suggestions to prevent functioning and meaningful democracy in Egypt.

The false propaganda on secularism alluding to Zionism, imperialism and affiliates concept requires clarification due to political factions deliberate misuse of the term secular circumventing concerted efforts to destabilize target nations.

The fact of the matter is anti-secularism among forces espousing specific political and religious agenda perhaps the binding factor in stifling republic governance in Egypt and elsewhere.

The commonality between Zionism accused of Judaization of Palestine and similarly those propagating Islamization of nations and territories is they share hegemonic goals geared towards polarization and stratagems premised on subversion with religion as means for authoritarianism.

Although the two identical groups superficially poised at odds against each other, the striking resemblance in approach to undermine secular states pose imminent threat to peace and security anywhere.

The religious dogma and imperialistic quest together have two choices for people seeking democracy and political freedom and they are fundamentalism tied to religious doctrine in contrast with original teachings of sacred texts and the other being institutionalized politics dictating rule of law to suit ambitions at national detriment.

As a result, the dichotomy of heterogeneous society represented across the spectrum and the so-called republic comprising majority and disenfranchised demography pave way for unrest related to social injustice and human rights violation.

Evidently the latter provides plutocracy and theocracy opportunity to deprive citizens the real democracy through self-governance.

Egypt regardless of religious composition endures oppression under plutocratic maneuvers deploying militaristic and fundamentalist tactics and,

Arguably deserves government pledged to serve all transcending barriers and most importantly courageous enough to stand up to sources behind political mayhem and reject ideology driven representation creating a wedge in society.

Pro- Morsi camp stalling governance and economic activity exacerbates Egyptian suffering in the uncompromising stance apparently beneficial to national foes and not the nation at large.

Instead the participation in national reconciliation forum with a referendum from Egypt electorate on political reform barring regional and foreign interference would demonstrate patriotism and true commitment to the nation.

The interim government bears responsibility in restoring calm and stability by refraining from use of force in crowd dispersal techniques that otherwise perpetuates stalemate.

Egypt political destiny is to be decided by entire country and dependent on citizens’ willingness to move forward in solidarity with national liberation from status quo as the foremost priority.

Best wishes to Egypt citizens in reclaiming sovereignty and establishment of people power leaving behind none in progress and prosperity.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

International Political Event – Presidential Election And Inauguration

August 4, 2013

By Padmini Arhant

Pakistan – Presidential Election

Congratulations! To President Mamnoon Hussain elected to represent Pakistan.

Pakistan’s democratic experience is not without trials and tribulations especially post election resulting in political factions dissatisfaction with electoral process.

Pakistan stability is linked with containing violence emanating from terror networks and anti-democratic forces funding Takfiri elements aimed at national and regional destabilization.

The leadership commitment in ending United States drone strikes producing civilian casualties would determine public trust on the incumbent power.

Upon eliminating militancy and extremism premised on fundamentalism, sectarian clashes and cross border terrorism could perhaps be laid to rest.

Pakistan uphill battles comprise combating corruption and recovery of national income held in overseas bank accounts through tax evasion.

Additionally, building economy to improve living conditions is not unique to Pakistan.

However, the political dynamics with foreign interference under the guise of military aid hinder economic revival.

Hopefully the current government headed by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and President Mamnoon Hussain would introduce effective strategies to redress burgeoning violence restoring calmness and peace necessary to reach milestones in national goals.

Wishing Pakistan citizens and President Mamnoon Hussain dawn of peace and tranquility.

———————————————————————————————————

Iran – Presidential Inauguration

Iran – Congratulations! To President Hassan Rohani on the Presidential inauguration as 7th President of Iran.

Under the newly elected Presidency, the Iranian electorate choice for reformist candidacy over others is a mandate for moderation.

The voters’ aspirations to evolve and emerge from constraints and convictions are dependent on developments in the near future.

United States and EU unlawful sanctions exacerbates mainstream normal existence with access to medicines and other essentials restricted due to financial blockade disabling payments processing and transaction facility for free flow of trade in international market.

The unilateral western decisions lacking in fairness and legitimacy unnecessarily targets innocent victims across the nation.

Nonetheless, Iranian resolve in enduring arbitrary rule is evident in efforts exploring options to overcome crises.

Inflation and higher unemployment draw attention amongst various challenges in the economic front.

In other areas of governance, the common problems shared worldwide such as corruption and mismanagement in different branches of government pose impediments to real progress.

With hopes and expectations, the nation looks forward to fresh beginning and optimism in domestic and foreign relations minimizing tensions for positive outcome.

Best Wishes to people of Iran and President Hassan Rohani in addressing issues of the nation.

———————————————————————————————————-

Zimbabwe – Presidential Electoral Dispute

The re-election of ruling party Zanu – PF governed by long serving President Robert Mugabe once again contested by opponent Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai.

The contender declining to concede in the latest national polls could be resolved in independent re-assessment of voting mechanisms with appropriate measures to avoid prolonged disputes now and later.

Despite previous experience in 2008, the top electoral official resignation in disapproval of existing polling method and inconsistency reveals the election commission lack of coordination and preparation.

Had inherent flaws been identified earlier and addressed effectively, the status quo might be different and any disagreements may not be related to voting irregularity.

Nevertheless, leaderships vying for power seeking amicable settlements could save lives with mass support behind peaceful reconciliation.

Zimbabwe leaders rational approach in national interest could deliver viable solution.

Good Luck! To Zimbabwe electorate and leaderships in finalizing political victory via communication and dialogue rather than confrontation.

Peace to all

Thank you.

Egypt – Ending Violence And Restoring Stability Paramount To Resolve Political Crises

July 29, 2013

By Padmihi Arhant

The ongoing clashes between the supporters and opponents of former President Mohamed Morsi in Egypt having claimed 150 lives and left 5200 wounded so far is deeply regrettable and against national interest.

The latest incident on July 27th in Nasr city of Cairo involving pro Morsi sit-in members and other factions resulting in 72 civilian deaths is tragic considering aggressive altercations impairs sensibility and rationale endangering lives all around.

Egypt is a mature nation with rich cultural heritage and civilization.

There is urgency for citizens to comprehend that local and foreign instigated unrest weakens national ability to focus on burgeoning issues confronting the nation.

Muslim Brotherhood led by ex-President Mohamed Morsi efforts to reverse political outcome at the expense of naive demonstrators more likely unaware of motives behind persistence clarifies misplaced priority and quest to remain in power regardless of such insistence proved in national jeopardy.

Simultaneously, the Supreme Council of Armed Forces (SCAF) headed interim government initiatives to deal with protests would be effective in refraining from using any force or violent means that only exacerbates situation than otherwise.

Egypt revolution in 2011 accomplished general aspiration in removal of more than thirty years old authoritarianism and iron fist rule denying political rights, economic opportunity and social justice.

However, largely due to foreign power remaining in control over Egypt military and political establishment with United States $1.55 billion aid primarily for geopolitical dominance in the region,

Egypt independence struggle continues and could be gained in declining external interference through monetary and military assistance essentially facilitating western proxy governance to subjugate population.

Since Mubarak regime ouster in February 2011, United States directed administrations alternating between SCAF and Muslim Brotherhood or Islamist Salafi evidently not people choice representation with misuse of authority and failure to govern effectively by them.

Egypt like any other sovereign nation under foreign usurpation exercising self-determination rights in solidarity transcending barriers is the preliminary step towards liberation.

The current turmoil foments divisions among citizens despite similar experience in suffering and sharing same vision for republic rule.

Egyptians across the spectrum coming together in national spirit renouncing violence and pledging to resolve issues in harmony barring domestic and foreign elements counterproductive intrusion is the cornerstone for functioning and meaningful democracy.

Those who politicize events for personal and ideological advantage ignoring loss of lives and mislead the nation towards destruction violate public trust and do not represent national goals.

Egypt citizens seeking United States and other regional power like Saudi Arabia exit from national politics and defense management is critical in the freedom movement.

The consolidated action in changing governments at the national level with exterior sources retaining strong influence over whoever comes to power in the so-called democratically elected process is a losing battle and render martyred sacrifices in vain.

Having identified the root of the problems along with chief contributors and agents,

The people response is to forge national alliance rejecting anti-republic and anti-national infiltration from within or outside to move forward with republic governed political system.

Egypt mass has already demonstrated to this effect in January 2011 that delivered them victory with deposed Presidency of Hosni Mubarak and,

Subsequently the developments were maneuvered from powers abroad with regional collusion depriving Egyptian electorate the fundamental rights to self-governance in a democracy.

The immediate concern is to terminate bloodshed and restore security across the country.

When the nation is unduly subjected to political confrontations, the environment creates a perception of power vacuum and provides fodder for terrorism as witnessed in Sinai Peninsula spreading to the city square.

The caretaker government role is critical in adopting peaceful strategies such as delegating interior ministry to deploy peace corps rather than military personnel on the streets with a national forum organized to redress political grievances inviting diverse perspectives observing calmness and civility towards one another.

National defense forces commitment to citizens ‘safety and territorial integrity while being recipient of foreign military funding pose conflict of interests and undermine national sovereignty.

Egypt military solemn oath to defend the country intertwined with allegiance to foreign financiers of national institution stifle guaranteed protection.

Hence leaving behind such traditions that are contradictory to fulfilling sovereign duty would greatly improve defense command relations with newly elected civilian authority in the near future and beyond.

Notwithstanding the military transformation in this regard not only earn them national respect and confidence but also eliminate destabilization prospects from entities utilizing their investments for this purpose.

Likewise, the political organizations whether Muslim Brotherhood or al-Noor Salafi party espousing fragmentation and discord using religion as a platform subscribe to national foes agenda.

Besides imposition of Sharia law may be suitable to some even amongst majority but not necessarily to all in a society comprising other segments of different faith viz. Coptic Christians and alike.

The essence of democracy is civil liberty with choices for citizens devoid of state infringement.

The measure would generate tolerance and mutual understanding important to preserve national unity.

Muslim Brotherhood prolonging rallies apparently detrimental to their political survival and nation at large. The MB leaderships are urged to bring social disturbance to conclusion preventing further escalation of tension.

Egyptian discernment alongside promoting awareness in the region with limited access to information is the way forward in realizing common dreams for a government of the people, by the people and for the people.

Wishing Egypt citizens unified strength for patriotism to overcome challenges with flying colors.

Peace to Egypt!

Peace to all

Thank you.
