United States – Policy and Partisanship

May 10, 2023

United States

Policy

and

Partisanship 

Padmini Arhant

Subsequent to recent parasitic culture topic, further  questions posed that beckon focus.

United States always leading in political drama,  action, violence, sexual allegations, identity politics viz. Black Lives Matter riots nationwide and alike  anchored on trans mania and much more…has drawn  attention on two latest news reports.

From California: The State authorized and apparently democrat political party created Reparations Task Force submit recommendations among many, the individual monetary compensation in cash ranging from $148,099 to $1.2million to Black Californians claiming victimhood on categorized historical discrimination from 1930 till date per news reports.

The question raised here, would such individual compensation qualify as parasitic culture nurtured by politics?

Response: The discrimination of all kind routinely practiced by mankind towards some or other worldwide is a reality since time immemorial prevalent till date.

The discriminatory legacy from the past and present is a dark history in any nation’s chronicle.

Unfortunately every nation around the world share either less, equal or more on their part on prejudice and human rights violations record.

However, seeking reparation costs for the events in the earlier century linked to those inhabitants at that time to be settled by the present generation largely comprising immigrants from all over the world in a state like California,

Among whom many on their part have something similar if not severe experienced in their or previous generation lifetime is neither practical nor economically possible.

The pandemic having consumed lives and livelihood, Californians are still struggling to recover from the pandemic caused economic downturns with many retail and local businesses shut down permanently with no hope of revival.

Above all, California ranked 4th in the 10 states listed in the United States with highest taxes is fairly excruciating for small medium business and ordinary citizens with average to moderate income.

Under these persisting tough economic conditions, legislating a bill in California State assembly enforcing tax increase and liabilities on current and near future taxpayers to afford the unaffordable reparation amounts on individual basis would trigger economic chaos for the State of California.

Notwithstanding Capital flight and taxpayer mass exodus to other parts of the country with less tax burden is inevitable. 

As such California and United States have come a long way in politics, economics and other areas in addressing African American cause compared to other race having suffered enormously in United States waged wars in their respective nations continued until today.

Likewise indigenous settlers  the Native Americans as original inhabitants of America are barely noticed having been displaced even prior to confederation and the currently discussed historic discrimination against people from Africa.

As a result, the children from the indigenous demography paying enormous price in their strife to preserve distinctive Native American heritage while attempting integration with contemporary America despite little or no resources and inadequate economic opportunities to them.

The State of California and federal programs that are already in place in improving the lives of African Americans in California and elsewhere is a milestone in modern history.

The deficiency might be in directing funds appropriation with transparent oversight that is fundamental in monitoring with necessary adjustments towards complete economic freedom for those at the bottom to all the way reaching middle income family.

Such management alleviating critical problems faced by African American families especially children abandoned by father whether born in or out of wedlock, better schools in black neighborhoods, crime mitigation in inner cities is the priority for collective communal progress unlike handing out tax dollars to individual members of African American identity deepening economic disparity within.

On the other issue – the litigation on alleged sexual harassment and abuse etc. with the jury verdict awarding the plaintiff $5 million according to widely televised and broadcast information on the case is asked whether the development is in semblance with parasitic culture.

Response:

Sexual harassment, abuse, assaults, defamation, caricature and diverse insults, injury and incarcerations against women is nothing new.

The difference is the crime institutionalized in the past 15 years speaking from personal experience including the nuanced narratives in this trial that those running the gamut possess authority to influence arbitrary decision. The judicial process determined by politics delivers accordingly.

Nonetheless, the irony is in other situations sexual harassment, inappropriate conduct, verbal and / or physical violence not barring public execution of the victim gunned down with 25 or more bullets with several rounds of ammunition deploying political might with impunity in the White House periphery in 2013 not even regarded a crime.

The victim in this political crime was not only murdered in public square but was also posthumously accused as someone having suffered from postpartum depression with no medical evidence or drug prescription to treat the ailment.

Again the sexual abuse reported during Presidential election by a victim against then democrat Presidential candidate in 2020 currently serving as the incumbent was subject to media biased trial dismissing the victim as opportunist, delusional and not mentally sound to protect the accused in this incident.

Never mind thereafter then accused as the central public figure, whose public behavior alluding to sexual innuendo and inappropriate touching witnessed worldwide regardless of age not even sparing minors only serving as material for social media and television networks’ absorption or distortion based on political agenda.

Meanwhile, the publicly verifiable misconduct added credibility to the earlier victim’s accusation legitimizing the victim’s account as a staff member in the Senate years of the accused that went tone deaf earlier and later in 2020.

The crime discarded as inconvenient and obstructive to then political goals to declare the candidate winner in the Presidential race in 2020.

These incidents though treated completely differently from one another with overdose of discrimination and misogyny share a commonality and that being women and women’s plight ever remain a fair game for political gains suggesting gross abuse of power at the travesty of Justice.

Not to mention politics laden with partisanship continue to use women as nothing more than servile instruments in the patriarchal orchestra.

The plaintiff in the recent trial awarded $5 million making public statement that the legal outcome is a personal and combined victory of all those women victims in sexual abuse prompt clarification.

Is the plaintiff public affirmation on sharing litigation victory with victims in comparable circumstances limited to abstract empathy or extended monetarily as well?

The sentiment is euphoric in such high profile sensationalized legal battle.

Needless to say, prejudice, misogyny, discrimination and abusive activities against anyone by anybody remaining objective not subjective is ominously abstained in present politics directed judicial exercise.

P.S. The incognito power as faceless operative behind the scenes engaging sycophant corrupt media and crony contingency crying foul using the usual lexicon conspiracy theory etc. are culpable either way.

If any of the publicly witnessed and digitally  documented incidents are conspiracy theory then,

Why are you funneling and squandering tax payer money in judicial theatrics and real crimes such as summary execution of a rape victim Miriam Carey brutally murdered in public square in 2013? 

The patriarchal orchestra owe the audience credible explanation behind abusing women and womanhood as servile instruments in the prolonged charade.

India – Russian bargain and raw deal

April 29, 2023

India – Russia

bargain and raw deal

Padmini Arhant

Indian government’s defense procurement from Russia disproportionately increased since Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 until now.

The economic trade provides Russia the benefit of the best of both worlds in stymieing any western sanctions and simultaneously funding Russian aggression against Ukraine.

Indian government – New Delhi on the one hand claiming political edge over western policy snubbing sanctions in the import of Russian crude oil at huge concessions is far from reality.

Russian President Vladimir Putin having established the motto – no cheap bargains and definitely no freebies with economic partners in Europe or elsewhere, the Russian crude oil exports to India is pegged with Russian defense stock procurement.

New Delhi political dissemination on heavily discounted Russian fuel deal like all other propaganda serve as campaign material with national election in 2024.

In fact, the Russian energy discount is well and over compensated in Russia’s favor with higher markups on defense sales like Missiles and other artillery purchased by New Delhi following Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Russia is able to overcome economic strife with or without sanctions at New Delhi’s deficit essentially providing Russian President comfort zone to prolong military intervention in Ukraine.

In contrast, New Delhi expending taxpayers money on expansive and expensive defense budget largely at the defense force expense with the launch of controversial Agnipath sizably slashing defense personnel recruitment across three divisions – Army, Navy and Air Force besides denying armed forces retirement and medical benefits abandoned long held defense force conventions.

New Delhi’s mega shopping free boosting foreign economies while depleting Indian reserves and current account with imports far exceeding exports is also the administration incentives viz. bribe to foreign heads to corral international support to the head of the Indian government confronted with turbulence at home in many fronts beginning with Adani economic debacle  to Pulwama and Poonch gate on terrorism.

Meanwhile, none of New Delhi’s extravagant defense procurement evidently has deterred China in invasion and incursion of Indian territories and Himalayan terrains nor contained Pakistan’s terror outfits’ skirmishes along the Kashmir and Punjab border.

New Delhi regime economic divestment offshore worsening Indian financial liability to strengthen personal position in political system that has departed from democracy to autocracy is the red herring with 2024 election bugle sounding off trepidation among power and population disillusionment on national status quo.

Singapore – Capital Punishment

April 27, 2023

Singapore

Capital Punishment

Padmini Arhant

The island nation in South East Asia Singapore’s laws are well known domestically and in most parts of the world.

Singapore government’s rule of law on narcotics and any substance abuse subject to capital punishment is prevalent till date.

Those apprehended such as the defenseless citizens as minority and underprivileged social economic background with little or no opportunity to prove innocence is inarguably a tough uphill battle.

The citizen with above outlined profile facing the government as the judge, jury and executioner such as the government legislative body enacting the law, law enforcement and judiciary all combined under governmental authority as appointer and appointees obliging one another either out of fear and / or appeasement leave the accused and defendants entirely at the mercy of the process.

The domestic rules in crimes vary arbitrarily despite the rules such as capital punishment lacking more than adequate reasons beyond doubt prior to executions in violation of international humanitarian laws in the modern age.

Singapore government’s position defending capital punishment in drug offenses citing general welfare and safety of the entire population is a single dimension perspective in the otherwise multi-dimensional dynamics in the drug war.

In all of the problems, the apex i.e. the one at the top most in the pyramid structure directing the rest below reaching the bottom often remain unscathed prolonging status quo in the cat and mouse game.

The narcotics ring attracts those in politics, intelligence agencies, drug lords in Afghanistan, Asia to the Americas and world over, economic sector, entertainment industry, religion and relevantly those facilitating the sales, marketing and distribution as purveyors…all of them remain off the hook letting those falling easy prey to victimization bear the cross so to speak in absorbing the sins of all of the above mentioned culpable sources in society.

Singapore government justifying capital punishment in drug offense to protect citizens in country simultaneously extending the law curbing the origin through inter-governmental agreements would nip the umbilical cord in the first place.

Importantly, Singapore authority shutting down own corridor known as Singapore Hawala involving informal transfer of illicit money not barring narcotics transactions boosting Singapore foreign currency reserves in $$$billions would be rather meaningful and effective in the government measures to safeguard citizens’ interests at home as well as foreign destinations depleting those citizens’ economic status.

Any government’s extreme reactions in capital punishment against the vulnerable and the weakest in society and laxities to corruption criminality within political establishment raise credibility factor.

The government policies being oblivious to corruption such as gross mishandling of citizens’ retirement savings viz. Central Provident Fund (CPF) the law requirement on citizens’ mandatory contributions to fund own retirement, health, education and housing needs…essentially the most critical fund with citizens’ lives dependent on it literally gambled in casino with no recourse and,

Temasek Holdings scandal with extraordinary remunerations to CEO, Mrs. Ho Ching, the next of kin to the ruling power and many other secret yet explosive matter evading transparency and accountability are anything but beneficial to the citizens in the country.

Unfortunately, politics abandoning democracy, free speech, right to life, liberty, equal opportunity, fairness and Justice in the present time is at the precipice of unbridled lawlessness with no checks and balances to question authority on flagrant violations of ethics, corruptions and human rights violations committed as the privilege of power with political impunity.

As always anything abnormal is unsustainable and lead to imminent conclusion of such system.

India – Power is Responsibility

April 25, 2023

India

Power

is

Responsibility

Padmini Arhant

The Pulwama gate in Jammu & Kashmir in 2019 involving 40 or more murder of young personnel of CRPF directly under Indian Central Government, New Delhi intelligence, Defense Ministry, Home Ministry and National Security purview revived by none other than the New Delhi regime in collusion with so-called independent journalism in disguise.

Governorship is a post in Indian politics continued from the colonial era of British Raj.  However, contemporarily the post serve as nothing more than political pawn and weapon for corrupt authoritarian regime in New Delhi to launch cowardly nuanced attack against me (in adaptation of global masters’ strategy) – using various monicker from Tamil Nadu to Jammu & Kashmir and wherever applicable.

What is Governorship in Indian political system?

Under British Raj  in the absence of State autonomy and political representation via legislative assembly brought into political structure post Indian independence, the governor post was created to report to the colonial hierarchy at that time.

Indian politics retained the governor post though appointed by ruling government, originally under  President administration ambit in political system.

The President of India – the appointee through Parliament vote by members from the lower and upper house and states of the Indian Union.

The President prior to the incumbent regime rule was the head and commander-in-Chief of the combined defense force – Army,  Navy and Air Force besides being the head of Governors in the Union Federation .

The President also presided the upper house  – Rajya Sabha governance. The President position in Indian politics was not merely ceremonial like cutting ribbons on events nationwide.

President’s rule is one of governmental functions which is often enforced in Indian states upon state legislative assembly dissolution for reasons varying from ruling power losing majority to any serious political crisis in the state or Union territory of India.

Now the Presidential position and Governorship under the current regime in New Delhi like everything else made redundant. The entire functionaries and institutions from Chief of combined Defense Forces to basically all and everything…brought directly under Prime Minister’s control and absolute authority.

In the above detailed background;

Just a week ago, BJP appointed former governor of Jammu & Kashmir Satyapal Malik suddenly emerges in an interview on devious media channel sharing the Pulwama attack in February 2019 then barely before national election in May 2019 and several political usual corruption details leaving an impression of vague and ambivalent characteristics of the interview providing intended fodder for state channel networks and state recruited social media to raise scripted questions like –

Why is the Governor Satyapal Malik talking about 2019 Pulwama incident now in 2023?

Why did the Governor not resign after Pulwama attack and instead continued obliging ruling regime’s designated governor posts in other regions of the country?

What is the real motive behind the Governor spilling beans against Prime Minister with national election in 2024?

The usual political connivance played by the regime deploying own member of the governance – the governor to smear and discredit none other than the real adversary and staunch political critic – myself incessantly and obsessively pursued by politics for challenging status quo. The convoluted political tactics against me is baseless and debunked effectively on every occasion.

For the recordI’m not and have never been a member of any political party, faction, organization and infrastructure anywhere. My representation is solely and exclusively with the divine mission. The public statement in this regard is an established fact.

Soon after the Governor Satyapal Malik’s interview,  the channel wire presents a male guest apparently American Indian touted actor, activist and issues with New Delhi regime and local Karnataka politics.

The guest scenario in semblance with my profile on origin and nationality etc. except GENDER my female identity in the typical misogynist criminal indulgence replaced with male with occupation as actor in direct contradiction with my genetic and professional details. The other being the regional state of Tamil Nadu substituted with another southern state Karnataka.

The interview focus is the American Indian’s overseas citizen of India (OCI) status revocation. This is a permanent visa granted by Indian government to expatriates of Indian origin. The immigration status lobbied by overseas Indians was actually passed and made effective under former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s tenure.

The same now weaponized by current New Delhi regime against individuals of Indian origin abroad targeted as not anti-India or anti-government rather anti-Narendra Modi.

The regime has set few examples cancelling visa against voices expressing concern on Indian democracy transition to autocracy – precisely legitimizing the voices’ claim through the regime’s undemocratic and political intervention in immigration action.

In that interview the Kannada male actor is specifically asked by the interviewer Karan Thapar to comment about the chief of New Delhi regime – Indian Prime Minister.

The actor responds to that question by certifying the PM as not corrupt and further elaborates on the PM so-called sacrifice of marital and homely material life (?)threading the comment in positive affirmation regardless of the guest purportedly ongoing immigration problem not barring several arrests etc. with the regime according to the interview.

Subsequent to Wire interview of former Governor Satyapal Malik’s leaks on Indian Prime Minister’s advise to Governor Malik to remain silent on the Pulwama murder per the Governor’s disclosure during the interview,

The political maelstrom was expected which was again tactfully contained by the regime with full cooperation and coordination from state managed press and media.

Arguably the heat on Pulwama still on under simmering fire demanding the Prime Minister to offer explanation on dereliction of duty in Pulwama  gate.

The reasonable demand made considering the former State of Jammu & Kashmir demoted to Union Territory for the purpose of New Delhi regime direct authority on all Kashmir affairs – the security in particular under Prime Minister.

In the aftermath of consecutive failures in security only having escalated since Kashmir’s 370 Abrogation transformed into Union Territory under New Delhi regime’s administration,

The Pulwama is just one of many incidents with the latest being in the valley with Indian security forces reported casualties five personnel – four are reportedly from Punjab in the government stated terror attack in Jammu & Kashmir’s Poonch described as dastardly and horrific.

In this context, the channel wire features the guest this time is Amarjit Singh Dulat, the former Chief of Research & Analysis Wing with no specifics on which sector and industry so on…?

The guest Amarjit Singh and the interviewer Karan Thapar in this wire interview squarely blame the Indian military in Jammu & Kashmir as revealed in the image title and briefed as follows:

Kashmir Poonch Terror Attack April 2023 


“The Army dropped its guard” –  implying the Indian military allowed the loss of its own personnel in Poonch terror incident.

The assertions in this interview by both the interviewer and interviewee strongly suggest the military responsible for the lapse while confirming in the interview that military sanitized the passage prior to the terror assault.

There is no mention of the New Delhi regime responsibility in the interview given the Prime Minister’s overreaching consolidation of governance and ministerial portfolios in the One-Man executive role in the so-called world’s largest democracy.

Not to mention the references of acronym PAFF aided by the interviewer Karan Thapar in the expansion as – People for anti-Fascism Front allegedly associated with Pakistan’s terror group Jaish-e-Mohammed in the interview.

Interestingly one of my blog posts titled ‘Silencing Free Speech and Facts is Fascism’ attracted public comment positively in agreement with importance of free speech and facts to protect democracy.

The New Delhi regime’s insane obsessiveness and political sensitivity to articles published on this site and sub-domain not without unruly and undemocratic interceptions in publication to control free speech and freedom of expression is prompting relentless efforts to demonize and discredit factual presentations on issues related to India and humanity at large.

Notwithstanding the channel wire and the interviewer Karan Thapar collaboration with the regime clarifying the journalism in disguise as independent and investigative proved not necessarily as such in the above three interviews featured in the past weeks until now.

The charade is yet another innuendo on my independent position to raise doubts on the well substantiated content of the publications on Indian regime and all matter.

When in fact the New Delhi regime and the media viz. wire seeking public donations for the channel operation are incumbent to comply on checks and balances with integrity refraining from complicity and collusion to jeopardize real independent journalistic reporting and incontrovertible factual data on this site and sub-domain.

Wire and Karan Thapar – Whom are you actually working for?

and

Whom do you represent in these deliberate misrepresentations? 

No matter how the situations are circumvented on wire and assortment media platform, the ruling government in power is responsible to address public demand for explanation on Pulwama to Poonch terror on the regime’s watch as ultimate authority.

All said and done, the buck stops at the highest office on land occupying the position of power as authority with formal title and fanfare. 

Power is responsibility and not privileges and political impunity alone prevalent in the present setting.

The Rise and Demise of Politics

April 20, 2023

The Rise and Demise of Politics

Cashing on Deaths

&

Deceased

Padmini Arhant

The dying politics with death hovering over it traditionally and contemporarily resign to unscrupulous nefarious dealings not limited to usual corruption scandals, in fact comprising killings and corpses in the paradoxical display of cowardice as courage. 

The engagement resurrecting the dead like the Abbottabad mission on May 2, 2011 propagated as assassination of long deceased Osama Bin Laden is a classic example.

Osama Bin Laden passed away in December 2001 from renal failure. The information categorically confirmed by two former heads of state of Pakistan – President and General Pervez Musharraf and (late) Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto.

The dying politics hatching the situation launch Abbottabad mission and deploy young NAVY SEALS age barely 19 – 21 years who in return are not spared either.

The NAVY SEAL entire crew deployed in the Abbottabad fudged mission on May 2, 2011 is callously and villainously disposed in the bizarre chopper incident in the heavily militarized U.S. and NATO occupation in Afghanistan on August 6, 2011.

The killing of the already dead Osama Bin Laden could perhaps only possible by politics with dismal prospects in Presidential election in the United States around the corner in 2012.

Alternatively, in the other so-called world’s largest democracy in the typical habitual copy paste persistence pulls off similar incident involving the nation’s Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) facilitating terror attack on the convoy returning to their designated stations in Pulwama, Kashmir, India.

The slaying of 40 CRPF young personnel via central government aided terrorism in February 2019 barely three months ahead of national election in May 2019 with incumbency viz. Prime Ministership re-election hanging in balance synonymous to the Presidency in the United States in 2012 is emulation of abuse of power.

In Indian episode, the central defense personnel CRPF 40 or more age 19 – 28 years treated as the cattle in abattoir (the slaughter house of livestock) and dispatched to Death Valley for political gains.

Again no difference between U.S. and Indian political game.

The entire young NAVY SEAL in Abbottabad operation disposed in calculated event in Afghanistan on August 6, 2011 three months after Abbottabad theatrics on May 2, 2011 ahead of 2012 Presidential race.

Similarly, Indian 40 or more CRPF in Pulwama  Kashmir conveniently baited with their lives to deceive gullible Indian electorate in May 2019 general election.

The politics owned media on both occasions hailed the action – Heroic and Master Stroke.

The link between incumbent Presidency in the United States 2009 – 2016 and beyond in 2021 onwards until now and Indian counterpart is the so-called democrat U.S. incumbent Presidency outreach exercising unconstitutional undemocratic norm bailing out the accused and implicated right-wing radical fundamentalist foreign Indian leadership in 2014 from arrest warrant in New York for human rights violation in world known Godhra violence in Gujarat in 2002.

The comradery conclusively define politics of the same stock flock together transforming to alter ego regardless of feigned left or right political positions.

The takeaway from these events is dying politics usually with criminal background never miss opportunity to cash in and capitalize on deaths of innocent lives ranging from civilians to defense force such as army NAVY personnel alongside reliance on terror notoriety to prolong power however.

In the process, the dying politics fail to recognize own death prompting underhanded criminal strategy to survive in politics.

Needless to say, the anyhow survival of dead politics in these circumstances endanger sane normal peaceful environment and remain existential threat haunting the nation and political system.

The ghost rising from the grave for the sake of death obsessed politics trying anything and everything to remain in power unequivocally lead such politics to burial ground.

The rise and demise of politics tracing the origin – the graveyard is definitive having authorized and presided over mass graves and public executions fanfare with pride and political impunity.
