Palestine – Ending Israeli Occupation and Gaza Blockade Immediate Priority

April 12, 2013

By Padmini Arhant

Life offers choices and opportunity to mankind. Human development is entirely dependent on utilizing potential constructively benefitting all that in return generates inner power for pervasive distribution promoting self-sufficiency.

Contrarily using endownments and capability towards destruction inevitably precipitate decline and ultimately to extinction.

Whenever human conduct is dictated by greed adopting violence to achieve aspirations beyond reason ignoring dire consequences, the impact is severe and irreversible on the source.

The art of living is in learning from past mistakes and disavow negativity changing course towards self-emancipation and betterment.

Again repeating the same errors and continuation on detrimental pursuits is defying rationality endangering own survival.

Applying the conditionality on Israel, the regime governed by Zionist doctrine relentlessly targets the base upon which the state exists intensifying brutality against victims i.e. Palestinians with hostility having reached a crescendo dehumanized Israeli authorities and coalition.

Israel upholding the trend in self-righteous egregious actions since inception in 1948 as justification for geopolitical dominance has delegitimized presence in the Middle East through 1967 invasion of Arab land starting with Palestine, Syria, Jordan and Egypt.

Not to mention the deceit and betrayal of benefactor until today – the United States under Israeli attack on USS liberty forced to sacrifice marines denying them due honorable service and subsequently the direct involvement in heinous 9/11 onslaught on American soil.

The massive cover up to protect the war ravenous so-called ally that persistently remains the major liability to American tax payers extracting multi billion dollars – $123 billions a year with only $3 billion in public disclosure while leaving vast majority U.S. citizens in poverty and critical economic condition is a relation flagrantly abusive.

Additionally, the burden on American generation exponentially increased with Israel’s belligerence expended at United States military aid and warfare for regime change shifting the costs in trillions to none other than average American families depriving them of decent life.

Israel’s wanton provocation and ambitions never to come into fruition has peaked with Washington collusion committing treason against United States – the nation they are elected to serve instead depleting national treasury to fight Israel’s wars in the Middle East.

United States sovereignty long undermined and American population conveniently reserved for shedding blood and sweat in the combat zone and failing economy respectively to satisfy hegemony perpetual desire to invade and occupy foreign shores seizing natural resources and exploiting human capital in the domain.

Israeli atrocities against Palestinians from illegal occupation, annihilation and decimation of lives and livelihoods to aggression resulting in several deaths of detainees held under unlawful administrative detention with colonization viz. settlement expansion tops notoriety in human rights violation.

Meanwhile in the beleaguered enclave Gaza, Israeli shelling is ongoing practice invariably aimed at children, women and vulnerable natives in the occupied territory.

Although gruesome oppression involves assaults on Gaza frequently testing United States funded iron dome efficiency despite Palestinian casualty,

The worst trait demonstrated in unilateral illegal Israeli blockade imposed since June 2007 and lately tightened barring humanitarian goods, food supplies and all economic requirements threatening citizens existence.

Gaza residents suffering further exacerbated with Egypt authority demolition of 250 tunnels that was lifeline for the trapped citizens to receive essentials due to Israeli restrictions on fishing, farming and industrial growth affecting unemployment rate in Gaza to 33% – the highest in any standard.

Egypt decision is linked with Israel instigated unrest in Gaza-Egypt border – the Rafah crossing prompting Egypt to flood tunnels preventing Gazans access to bare minimum disregarding their plight.

The problems for citizens in Gaza culminated with United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) assistance withdrawal and closing food distribution depots in the past week.

The killing of Palestinians on daily basis in Gaza, West Bank and al-Quds, East Jerusalem, the capital of Palestinian State exceed much discussed twentieth century holocaust with history repeating itself in Israel crimes against humanity.

Notwithstanding western and gulf regimes complicity in Israeli persecution of Palestinians allows Tel Aviv cart blanche in human degradation policy.

The peace movement and Boycott Divestment Sanctions to raise awareness are praiseworthy,

However, the effective strategy would be to denounce and reject facilitators extending boycott to partners in crime – United States, Britain, CANADA, France, Germany, Australia, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Egypt, Jordan, Turkey and others kowtowing Zionist ideology.

Having exhausted diplomacy and peaceful coercion unsuccessfully on Israel, the leadership and those behind extemporaneous concepts implemented as laws against Palestinians including others in the region,

The state of Israel is forewarned unequivocally on impending stakes ahead in travelling down egocentric hyperbolic lane epitomized in dismissal of universal norms and principles applicable to all without exception consistently declined in adherence.

Israel determination to perpetuate violations not only towards Palestine but also against neighbors in Syria, Lebanon, Iran, Iraq and Egypt for establishment of greater Israel with gulf dictatorships subservience is a suicide mission for Israel and allies conforming to end justifying the means in the imminent non-existence status.

Hence, the only option to avert looming apocalypse for Israel and alliance is to arrest imperialistic quest and abandon ill-fated delusional hegemonic goals for individual and collective salvation.

Israel procrastination and refusal to terminate occupation of Palestine, Golan Heights in Syria and lifting Gaza sanctions together with unconditional release of all Palestinian hostages in captivity would expedite myriad challenges in epic proportion.

World solidarity in liberating Palestine and thwarting prevalent anti-humanity agenda is critical to sustain life, global peace and security.

Tolerance to injustice in Palestine over decades has contributed to widespread overt and covert subjugation across the globe.

International community complacency to Palestinian ordeal could deliver similar experience for them in a matter of time.

Palestinian resistance and peace activists around the world are urged to consolidate efforts leading to Palestinian statehood recognition as a sovereign nation with citizens rights to self-determination and territorial integrity.

Heartfelt condolences to survivors and dependents of detainees died in Israel’s prisons –

The martyrs – Arafat Jaradat, Maisarah Abu Hamdiah and the latest death in Israel’s Nafha prison with name yet to be published per local and overseas report.

Wishing Palestinians freedom from struggles with Almighty God’s grace and blessing for a new beginning and promising future.

Peace to people in Palestine!

Peace to all!

Thank you.

IRAN – Bushehr province earthquake.

Heartfelt condolences to victims’ families on the recent tragedy from earthquake reportedly in Kaki town near provincial capital Bushehr in Iran.

The incident stated to have caused 37 deaths and 850 injured with more aftershocks that accompany major seismic activity.

The local authorities swift response with emergency relief efforts and rescue programs is noteworthy when time is the essence in saving lives during disaster.

Prayers offered for citizens speedy recovery and healing process to resume normal life.

May God bless the people experiencing pain and ordeal in Bushehr province and Islamic Republic of Iran.

KENYA – President Uhuru Kenyatta Assumes Office

Congratulations! To President Uhuru Kenyatta upon being sworn to office on April 9, 2013.

Considering disputes in the electoral outcome and reportedly clashes between respective factions resulted in two deaths, the subsequent clarification from Kenya’s Supreme Court apparently resolved the matter.

President Kenyatta pledge to serve Kenyan republic across the nation is critical to lead Kenya towards progress and prosperity benefitting entire population.

Despite challenges ahead from domestic and foreign origin, Kenyan leadership commitments on political, economic and social reforms addressing corruption and inequality with fair opportunity to all would guarantee greater national development.

Best Wishes to citizens and President Uhuru Kenyatta for a peaceful and successful future.

BAHRAIN – Formula One Grand Prix Event Boycott

Bahraini al-Khalifa Kingdom atrocities against oppressed citizens continue with western powers especially United States and Britain other than gulf ally Saudi Arabia provided artillery and resources for suppression.

Bahrain regime hosting United States fifth naval fleet has been abusing power with brutal reaction including physical and mental torture such as electrocution of medical professionals and humanitarian workers attending to unarmed protesters wounded from state sponsored violence.

Moving forward with scheduled Formula One Grand Prix suggest organizers focus on revenue ignoring oppressors killings and unlawful detention of innocent civilians as well as peace activists since 2011 escalating harsh treatment by the hour.

The Formula One Grand Prix entertainment alongside gross human rights violation in Bahrain on international watch is a serious decline of civilization.

In fact, Formula One Grand Prix participants boycotting the event would impact the authority and draw world attention denied to Bahraini citizens struggling for political freedom over decades going back to Britain installed puppet monarchy.

Bahraini authority with Saudi Arabia, United States and Britain aided ammunitions and personnel enhancing violent crackdown of peaceful dissenters is honored rather than denounced in a bizarre gesture when Britain’s Sandhurst Military School considered equivalent to United States West Point military institution was recently named after Bahraini dictatorship Hamad Bin Isa al-Khalifa in appreciation of $3 million donation to the Royal academy.

The western misplaced priorities contribute to enormous human suffering in their domain and around the world with no consideration for life except individual and hegemony interest.

Bahrain political leadership tactics and extreme measures against non-violent demonstrations seeking long overdue changes not barring dynasty abolition conforming to democratic system deserves effective global action demanding the rulers transfer power to the people instead of lethal force against them.

Bahraini citizens sacrifice would not be in vain. The admirable resolve enduring horrific crimes against them do not deter resistance and contrarily al-Khalifa Kingdom along with coalition collapse is imminent.

Global support expediting removal of authoritarianism inflicting injustice in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, Egypt, Libya, Yemen, Tunisia, Turkey… and last but not the least Israel is paramount for peaceful existence and security.

Wishing citizens in Bahrain end to tyranny for republic state with political independence.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

Syria – Terror Sponsors Defiance is Self-Destructive

April 8, 2013

By Padmini Arhant

The latest reports on terrorist bombing in downtown Damascus identified as al-Shahbander and Sabe’a Bahrat Square claiming 14 martyrs and 146 injured so far is yet another failure from the west and gulf allies to respect life.

They continue to target innocent children and women considering the explosion in booby trap were near Salim Bukhari School, Buaeir Mosque and residential building as per local agency report.

United States, Britain, Israel, France, Saudi, Qatar, Turkey and Jordan regimes sponsored atrocities against defenseless civilians in Syria confirm sponsors desperation in the invitation for self-disaster.

Not to mention the leaderships and operatives behind heinous crimes against humanity in Syria are completely devoid of human elements conspicuous in their relentless terrorism against a sovereign nation.

The western and gulf defiance to ceasefire denying Syrian population respite from perpetual violence signify terror organizers confused origin as democratic nations and civilized society.

Although Saudi, Qatar and Jordan are overt dynasties suppressing domestic uprising on political freedom in their domain,

The remaining members in the group viz. U.S. Britain, Israel, France and Turkey violent conduct exemplify deception committing treason against respective nations they falsely represent with allegiance pledged to war hungry hegemony specializing in annihilation and decimation of states posing no threat to them or the people in the west and Middle East.

Evidently, the holocaust of nearly 80,000 lives including the use of chemical weapons on March 19, 2013 besides over a million refugees scattered across Syrian borders in inhumane conditions is the reality due to foreign intervention.

Again causing more deaths and devastation in Syria only isolate those funding, arming and training terrorists with consequences increasingly becoming costlier and irreversible both individually and collectively for them.

The murder of unarmed citizens through terrorists in western and gulf backed proxy wars face inevitable backlash in alarming proportion against the source.

The underestimation and slight of imminent catastrophe to them is indicative of deliberate ignorance in pursuit of delusional aspirations at western taxpayers and Syrian victims expense.

In other developments rather deterioration in western mismanagement of events,

The Syrian government request to UN for independent investigation on western authorized WMD in Khan al-Asal village near northwestern Aleppo resulting in at least 25 casualties with death toll majority being children and women alongside several sustaining severe injuries manipulated by the west and servile gulf coalition misleading the inquiry against victims i.e. the people of Syria.

Western nations notoriety on WMD is established throughout history.

Iraq war 2003 until now – United States and Britain use of depleted uranium produce generational impact in children born with deformities and women experiencing acute reproductive problems in the course of pregnancy and after childbirth.

Israel performing ritualistic aggression against Gaza in December 2008 – the relentless shelling with white phosphorous verified in UN appointed Richard Goldstone report has endless health issues affecting children, women, youth and elderly from the attack.

Additionally, the patients’ illnesses exacerbated with illegal unilateral Israeli blockade denying Gaza residents medicines and humanitarian goods for the past six years beginning in 2007 and more restrictions imposed making life literally impossible in the beleaguered enclave.

As for United States record in twentieth century – the trajectory involves nuclear weapon on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, WMD in Korean war, napalm in Vietnam and subsequently supply of biological weapons to then U.S. ally, former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein in the eight years war with Iran and Iraqi citizens as well.

Needless to elaborate on Britain’s liberal chemical warfare in the colonial past and present committing genocide at free will with impunity – the tradition maintained well into the new millennium in the so-called modern age.

The hegemony set up United Nations as an organization supposedly an international body has repeatedly served against humanity interest proving lack of credibility and legitimacy to conduct probe on adequately substantiated crime by western and gulf deployed terrorists against Syrians in Aleppo on March 19, 2013.

UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon cowering to western pressure with invented version synonymous to Iraq in an effort to divert findings in Aleppo invariably leading to Britain, France and the rest void UN status as a reliable entity.

This is a major embarrassment for UN especially in a serious matter concerning loss of civilian lives notwithstanding foreign terrorists gruesome tactics in Syria since conflict onset.

UN Chief reluctance to abide by international standard in the determination of specific violation in Aleppo on March 19, 2013 barring western and gulf influence means complicity in western subversion of truth and,

The erroneous decision endangers global peace and security rendering UN dysfunctional.

Hence, the effective measure for UN is to task non-discriminatory and politically unaffiliated ethical committee to review Syrian government provided facts on foreign terrorists massacre using poisonous gas in rockets against Syrian citizens in Khan al-Asal, Aleppo on March 19, 2013 that attracted worldwide condemnation.

UN procrastination or detour in this critical matter could contribute to UN disintegration and ultimate collapse.

Accordingly, the UN authority is urged to pursue the process with integrity and transparency conforming to humanitarian law and UN Charter.

Meanwhile, Syrian community participation with government, national defense and security personnel on 24/7 vigilance promptly reporting suspicious activity, abandoned vehicles and other items would enhance operations in foiling terror plots nationwide.

The extensive search of people and belongings in crowded areas and public sites also important in terror deterrence.

Security check points all over the country – cities, towns, villages is essential to prevent and eliminate foreign terror from Syrian soil.

Heartfelt condolences to bereaved families and prayers for survivors speedy recovery welcoming peace on the horizon.

May God Bless Syria’s citizens and leaderships relieving them from hardships and pain endured with admirable courage and patience.

Wishing Syria everlasting peace, progress and prosperity in abundance.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

Afghanistan – United States Air Strikes Targets Innocent Children and Other Civilians

April 7, 2013

By Padmini Arhant

The latest crime against humanity is the continuous barrage of attacks in Afghanistan deliberately targeting civilian population.

United States military and political leaderships competence or the lack thereof explicitly revealed in the determination to kill defenseless citizens with military might showing no inhibitions in violence committed via funding, arming terrorism and military aggression around the world.

The recent U.S. air strike in Shigal district of eastern Kunal province in Afghanistan on Sunday killing eleven children from the age group of one to eight years old is a cowardly act and clearly displays severe deterioration of human elements among those in position of authority abusing power to self and national destruction.

There is absolutely no justification whatsoever in exhausting defense inventory purely for profiteering and power mongering at the expense of innocent lives overseas while American taxpayers burdened with debt funding illegal warfare to satisfy war machine insatiable appetite.

Not to mention the austerity imposed on American families is a slow death sentence on them with White House declaration to slash Medicare and Social Security – the only remaining lifeline for the vast majority in the United States.

Prolonging the trend borrowed from Europe across the Atlantic, the stranglehold on ordinary Americans is worse than instant massacre offshore by western powers via proxy wars, use of chemical weapons and aviation technology.

The misplaced priority in flying B-52 and B-2 nuclear capable stealth bombers from Air Force base in Missouri to Korean Peninsula costing American taxpayers $5.6 million on that flight alone and,

Funding $62 million directly to al-Qaeda and splinter terror network al-nusra towards slaughter of Syrians clarify utter disregard for life whether in United States or overseas exacerbating human suffering wherever possible.

The U.S. tax dollars expended on drone strikes along with air raids on daily basis again draining $ billions only to produce massive civilian casualties offshore by those claiming to be proud parents and leaders of political, military, economic and academic institutions are misleading the nation they pretend to represent despite treason reflected in unconstitutional, undemocratic and unlawful indulgence.

The circumvention refuting the irrefutable charges against all those responsible for perpetuating violence through terrorism and militarism unfortunately carried out with impunity largely due to complacency within society except some peace activists and humanitarians voicing concern on these issues given the serious human rights violation.

Any society’s silence equivalent to inaction i.e. tolerance to injustice against fellow humans anywhere could not possibly qualify as humane society especially when their nations are the source of terror causing death and destruction world over.

United States, Britain and allies so-called war on terror in Afghanistan lasting over a decade is a playground for military industrial complex and political leaderships unabashedly engaged in experimenting defense stockpiles and military hardware innovation aimed at inhabitants considered dispensable.

United States immediate termination of drone and air strikes in Afghanistan and neighboring Pakistan followed by complete troop withdrawal is mandatory to avert looming calamities affecting contributors as masterminds, architects, willful agents, representatives and operatives behind human plight.

The defiance in this regard would expedite inevitable consequence that is best abandoned to individual and hegemony benefit.

With sincere condolences to victims families grieving the loss of children in the merciless assault,

Prayers offered for the precious souls to rest in peace and survivors with strength and courage to endure ordeal healing over passage of time and imminent peace in Afghanistan.

Wishing the people of Afghanistan permanent peace, political stability and progress in every frontier.

May God bless the citizens of Afghanistan relieving them of all suffering.

Peace to all!

Thank you. Padmini Arhant

Lebanon – New Premier Designate Tammam Salam

April 6, 2013

By Padmini Arhant

Congratulations! To newly selected Premier Designate Tammam Salam of Lebanon.

The Premier Designate has tough challenges ahead; nonetheless unity among political factions in national interest would facilitate transitional government to deliver the requirements on all matter.

Again, Lebanon could lend necessary support to victims in Syria with tighter border control restricting cross border terrorism and flow of weapons that has consumed many lives in the embattled nation.

The refugee situation with thousands fleeing into nearby borders deserves adequate humanitarian assistance.

The families are extremely vulnerable and treating them humanely is important rather than abusing their disadvantaged status.

Lebanon’s Interior Minister Marwan Charbel stated that some political factions in Lebanon are training these citizens as militants to fight alongside terror networks in Syria.

Such activities are reckless and irresponsible considering these citizens were rendered homeless and forced to leave their towns and villages by the foreign backed terrorist groups and they are in fact responsible for death and destruction of innocent lives in Syria.

Those political entities in Lebanon involved in exploiting human plight are not only exacerbating Syrian suffering but also increasing the burden on Lebanese population creating more refugee problems in neighboring Syria.

Instead, Lebanon and other neighbors of Syria working to end conflict is prudent for that would enable Syrians to rebuild the nation ruined by terrorism.

Moreover, once the illegal proxy war is brought to conclusion, Syrians would not risk their lives crossing over to foreign land and experience hostility.

Setting adjacent nation on fire in the belief that would not affect the states in close proximity is a gross miscalculation.

The security of nations sharing border with Syria – Lebanon, Iraq, Turkey, Jordan and Israel as far as Egypt are directly linked with Syrian crisis.

Turkey, Jordan and Israel are contributing to the turmoil in Syria ignoring widespread ramifications to affect them sooner than later.

Although, Turkey and Jordan leaderships remain active in aggravating the Syrian warfare,

Their approach towards victims of senseless violence is not honorable either, since both nations continue to deport desperate Syrians arriving on respective territories and deny them hospitable environment.

Hence, ceasefire in Syria terminating violence and complete withdrawal of terror operatives is the only option for stability across the Middle East with Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Israel, Jordan and Turkey situated in the region.

Premier designate Tammam Salam with significant political experience and public service poised to lead Lebanon through some expected and unpredictable circumstances not unique in election year for any nation.

Lebanon political system overwhelming approval of Premier designate Tammam Salam is promising and maintaining the trend throughout would perhaps lead to effective governance.

Best Wishes to Premier designate Tammam Salam, various political leaderships and people of Lebanon – peace and success in all endeavors to republic and national benefit.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

Lebanon – Political Stability and Unity Key to Defend National Sovereignty

April 5, 2013

By Padmini Arhant

The Mediterranean Middle Eastern nation – Lebanon instability premised on collision in diverse culture and political thoughts remains western doctrine.

Lebanon in particular due to geographic location constantly experiences meddling from the problematic coalition – United States, Israel and Saudi Arabia with intermittent indulgence by France as the previous colonizer contributing to unnecessary turmoil.

The deadly combination anti-democratic strategies strive for puppet governments to advance their objectives against neighboring states Syria and Iran.

Israel and Saudi Arabia espousing radicalism through Zionist ideology and Wahabi-Salafist favored Muslim Brotherhood respectively deploy United States embassy primarily tasked with espionage services utilizing CIA and Mossad specialty in toppling democratically elected governments not excluding assassination of leaders representing viable democracy.

Lebanon political setbacks directly attributed to United States, Israel and Saudi sponsored terrorism going back to assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafiq Hariri in 2006 during Bush-Cheney co-Presidency and,

Subsequently democratically elected government dismissed in 2010 under President Barack Obama administration influencing factions to undermine Hezbollah representation in Parliament.

The latest event involves United States and Israel coercion in Prime Minister Najib Mikati resignation.

Prime Minister Najib Mikati currently heading caretaker government with New Premier nomination underway until national elections called for at the earliest possible.

The recent disturbance for Lebanese government linked with political parties lack of consensus on electoral law and election monitoring committee besides controversy surrounding Police Chief Major General Ashraf Riffi extension of term in office.

Such proposal would allow exception stretching the existing law and set precedence unhelpful to Lebanon now and later.

Moreover Police Chief Major General Ashraf Riffi alleged strong ties with Saudi regime – the root cause of Middle Eastern unrest and quagmire provide opportunity to stir problems in the fragile state.

Internal Security Chief Ashraf Riffi retirement on March 31, 2013 per Lebanon law and handing over to interim chief Brigadier General Roger Salem until new ISF director general appointment is prudent to scuttle unnecessary political and internal clashes over this issue.

In the northeastern part of Lebanon, Tripoli adjoining Syrian border, the flare up between pro-Syrian government and foreign backed terrorists claimed some lives alongside facilitating weapons and terror networks influx into Syria.

Prime Minister Najib Mikati government neglect on border control not sealing the areas exploited by foreign terror groups to enter Syria threatens Lebanon security as well.

Not to mention Israeli regime already demonstrated in this regard flying into Lebanon air space past week – reconnaissance planes and jets in direct violation of Lebanon and international law.

Again, Israel known for such violations repeat incidents with impunity unless nations that are violated safeguard territory with appropriate air defense in terms of radar surveillance issuing stern warnings upon foreign encroachment.

Lebanon after suffering western and Saudi instigated political turbulence and warfare no longer afford prolonging status quo.

Western and Saudi-Qatar determination to destroy nations across Middle East and every other Islamic nation such as Pakistan, even in Malaysia with United States and Saudi funded terrorists in Sabah province are merely tip of the iceberg.

United States, Israel, Britain, France and Saudi-Qatari-Turkey and Jordan alliance in Syria continue to consume lives indiscriminately evident in the assassination of religious scholar and Sunni Cleric Mohammad Said Ramadan al-bouti and grandson along with those attending prayer at the mosque.

Muslim community worldwide and especially Arabs in the Middle East must realize that sectarianism and communal clashes on the basis of Sunni, Shia, Alawite, and various denominations pave way to forces behind polarization to attack the peaceful religion of Islam, the Prophet (PBUH) and desecration of holy sites in Mecca carried out by Saudi dynasty.

Amid confrontation within society, the foreign invaders having manufactured crises justify intrusion under the guise of offering security when the real intention is access to resources and rein control over governance with pro-western government.

This pattern not necessarily confined to Middle East and other Islamic nations, in fact the implementation is pervasive and henceforth defiant nations are primary targets in the neo-colonization of the world.

Lebanon is a secular nation comprising Muslims, Christians and other demography facing consistent threats from Israel muscled with United States artillery and Saudi-Qatar servitude denying peace in Middle East.

However, Lebanon or any nation in similar position could challenge external interference with solidarity pledged to national sovereignty and rights to self-determination rejecting camouflaged western backed elements in political, military and economic establishment.

Hegemony regards entities and resistance movement supporting citizens and protecting national assets as obstacles to their aspirations and accordingly conspires or plots to remove them.

Any nation that succumbs to these tactics surrenders independent status and instead electing leadership that demonstrates courage, integrity and patriotism vowed to maintain peace and social integration critical for survival in the hostile environment.

Furthermore, people power through strong emergence with unified stance across the spectrum thwarts foreign dominance.

Lebanon commitment to protect all citizens as part of mainstream transcending isolation of community or political difference barring terror activities in the country and towards neighbors essential for national unity.

Security is shared responsibility among political, intelligence and military demanding cooperation on territorial matter.

Preventing terrorism with resolve would save civilian lives in Lebanon and adjacent countries fighting proxy war.

Lebanon economy could vastly improve with amicable political settlement, electoral laws conforming to international standard witnessed in 2012 Venezuelan election and declining foreign operatives destabilization agenda.

Israel, United States and Saudi obsession with Hezbollah declaring the democratically elected political members ‘terrorist’ reflective of accusers ambition to debilitate Lebanon intensifying vulnerability for broader engagement in the Middle East.

Lebanon political representation unheeding to western and Saudi pressure alongside assistance to nations dealing with foreign terrorism as well as occupation is extremely important in self and regional interest.

Best Wishes to people and leaderships in Lebanon for multi-faceted development focused on formidability to foreign assertion sustaining progress in all frontiers.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

Korean Peninsula – Peaceful Strategy Only Option to Defuse Crisis

April 4, 2013

By Padmini Arhant

United States having initiated massive troop deployment and nuclear capable B-52 and B-2 stealth bombers, F-22 fighter jets, USS McCain and Decatur naval missile destroyers and anti-missiles in Pacific Island of Guam…in Korean Peninsula,

Notwithstanding contentious illegal economic sanctions along with cyber attacks against North Korea contributed to current standoff and require unraveling with rationale and peaceful strategy.

The situation cannot be escalated any further having reached a crescendo and appropriately demand restraints on all sides to protect lives in the territory and offshore.

First and foremost, lifting unjustified trade embargo and financial restrictions are absolutely necessary to allow North Korean population normal existence.

The whole idea of constricting economies in unlawful and discriminatory sanctions by western powers with no western nation ever sanctioned despite past and present horrendous crimes against humanity exerts supremacy denying countries recognition on sovereignty, territorial integrity and citizens rights to self-determination.

Above all, United States led economic warfare via illegitimate sanctions against any nation is in gross violation of human rights considering slow and painful death inflicted on innocent victims enduring inhumane policy.

The rest of the world obediently following such arbitrary rules share equal responsibility in committing genocide rather than concerted action rejecting prejudice and injustice towards nations that are assumed fair targets in the increasingly hostile environment dominant with powers conforming to hierarchy.

Again having not experienced sanctions ramifications, those behind implementation are directly responsible for human suffering through isolation while exempting them from similar misery regardless of individual and collective trajectory.

Next course to scuttle growing tension with North Korea is U.S. withdrawal of marine and aviation incursion under the pretext of preparation to DPRK threats when Pyongyang reaction emanating from United States interference in reconciliation process between people of North and South Korea.

United States intrusion anywhere causing turmoil is to facilitate rival factions i.e. the so-called allies ammunitions supply not barring nuclear armed fighter jets favoring arms manufacturer in the military industrial complex while ignoring massive civilian casualties in the profiteering and power quest beyond control.

Due to this reckless involvement in sovereign nations internal affairs, the citizens in the victim nations are forced to bear the loss of their loved ones including severe damages to infrastructure not sparing hospitals, schools, universities, church, mosques and public buildings along side destruction of private property leaving millions as refugees witnessed in Syria and Mali repeating Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and Yemen scenario.

Simultaneously, Americans, Britons and other natioals in western society are enforced with austerity resulting in domestic self-immolations and starvation due to fund allocation for sponsoring terrorism in Syria and warfare in Mali killing thousands of children, women and men in the relentless crusade to satisfy oligarchy and imperialists aspirations for foreign resources and land.

Last but not the least, transcending destabilization motto is a necessity in the evolutionary paradigm.

Besides intelligence agencies – CIA, MOSSAD, MI5, MI6 and counterparts, embassy / high commission primarily setup for espionage in addition to ill-reputed United States Agency for International Development (USAID) to sabotage functional democratic system overseas contrary to the acronym claim.

The non-governmental organizations (NGO), certain religious authority plus centers and some false human rights groups are also partners in the mission discrediting genuine members and institutes dedicated to humanitarian service.

On the economic front, trade treaty viz. Free Trade Agreement (FTA), Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), financial offers leading to economy insolvency from IMF, World Bank, ECB, and Federal Reserve…monetary proposals and mandatory loans to perpetuate banking fraud are predominant reasons behind prevalent gloom and doom expected to exacerbate origin and actual beneficiaries unlike taxpayers alone transformed into generational debtors under existing condition.

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un declaration to boost economy is a positive step and reopening Kaesong industrial park generating income to DPRK and families on both sides would be prudent in expediting progress.

Restoring communication channels with South Korea and persistent peaceful negotiations are critical for both nations in national and republic interest.

United States honoring Korea’s sovereign rights in abstaining from counterproductive activities best suited to promote peace.

Best Wishes to citizens and leaderships in North and South Korea for successful peace accord leading to reunification.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

Korean Peninsula – Denuclearization and DMZ Prudent for North and South Korea Existence

April 3, 2013

By Padmini Arhant

North Korea frustration to United States military incursion in Korean Peninsula is understandable.

However, resuming mothballed nuclear reactor including uranium enrichment at Yongbyon facility foment more aggression all around that is favorable to none.

Nuclear options is extremely dangerous and best rejected to protect lives in Korea and United States.

North Korean military and political leadership should realize that direct involvement through peace talks with South Korea alongside communication revival reinstating recently cancelled hotline in the demilitarized zone is vital and effective to neutralize United States fueled nuclearization.

Pyongyang reactionary steps simply provide fodder for aggressor to justify unjustifiable actions and scapegoat victim as provocateur.

Instead North Korean leadership persistent peace efforts initiating dialogue at various levels with South Korean counterpart restoring communication, transportation, reopening industrial complex providing livelihood to both North and South Korean families etc. would decrease unnecessary skirmishes in the territory.

South Korean President Park conciliatory political approach to North Korean leader Kim Jong-un peace overtures equally important to scuttle foreign power enforced hostility against Korean population on both sides.

Reiterating the fact, United States imperialistic quest with substantial military buildup in Asia amid domestic double dip economic recession, anti-American sentiment worldwide and alarmingly high suicides among U.S. armed forces,

The passion for militarism accompanied by nuclear armed artillery squandering millions of dollars in flying B-2 bombers that cost American tax payers $5.6 million past week and F-22 stealth fighter jets is a political decision to appease hegemony.

United States military and political leaderships respect for national sovereignty and citizens right to self-determination without terrorizing North Korea with military might and,

Similarly proxy wars funding and arming terrorists in Syria would perhaps mitigate tension allowing peaceful negotiations in the respective states currently dealing with United States manufactured crises.

Again nuclear status do not deter Untied States led hegemony to undermine countries abroad as witnessed with nuclear states Pakistan, India or for that matter China and Russia.

U.S. infiltration through drone strikes in Pakistan, energy policy restriction for India and Pakistan, anti-missiles to NGO operations in Russia, cyber and currency warfare with China are few of the many wanton provocations presumptuously undertaken to prove United States declining credibility and integrity in the rapidly changing geopolitical dynamics.

North Korea focus in building local economy and strengthening ties with South Korea would be viable response facilitating bilateral relations and any further antagonism from United States would clearly subject the source to imminent withdrawal.

Hence, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un adopting positive and constructive course towards South Korea and accordingly President Park Geun-Hye honoring diplomacy as pledged on the campaign trail would deliver desirable results than pursuing offensive tactics that is potentially catastrophic to Korea’s existence and regional safety.

North Korea avoiding strategies such as nuclear weapons enhancement even for defensive purpose would essentially shift responsibility and burden on United States to retreat and renounce belligerence causing enormous strife in the otherwise resolvable internal sovereign matter between North and South Korea.

Power exercised with violence and warfare exacerbates problems with irreversible outcome whereas peace guarantee unity, security and progress to all.

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un and South Korean President Park Geun-Hye are urged to acknowledge peace ending the foreign instigated nuclear armed militarization of peaceful Korea.

Wishing citizens in North and South Korea amicable agreement on all issues concerning the republic of Korea leading to successful reunification process.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

Korean Peninsula – Peace and not War is the Solution to U.S. led Crisis

April 1, 2013

By Padmini Arhant

United States persistent military incursion in Korean Peninsula is a clear provocation.

The latest maneuvers premised on usual tactics – United States press and media complicity through deception and false propaganda is unnecessary and unaffordable in every aspect.

The notion that wars would revive U.S. economy is a myth considering the status quo attributed to the extravagant military expeditions involving illegal invasion, occupation and decimation of sovereign states around the world.

Notwithstanding phenomenal loss of lives and economic liabilities when American citizens are burdened with generational indebtedness while victim nations generations wiped out to serve hegemony goals disregarding prevalent cataclysmic outcome.

North Korea continues to endure United States military and nuclear threats with B-52 nuclear capable bombers flown all the way from Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri and F-22 Stealth fighter jets under the pretext of missile defense dispatched to South Korea.

The situation further aggravated in moving USS Fitzgerald guided missile-destroyer closer to beleaguered state.

These military activities are carried out over and above crippling economic and financial sanctions, cyber attacks and various provocative actions thus far.

United States deliberate and antagonistic measures against North Korea are counterproductive and best abandoned with complete withdrawal of U.S. presence from the region and world over.

In fact, United States sprawling military bases and sponsoring terrorism primarily responsible for violence and turmoil across the globe.

United States offer to protect South Korea against U.S. instigated warfare is a cliché and reminiscent of 9/11 attack with United States military, intelligence and political establishment collusion to perpetuate terror on Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Libya, Yemen, Somalia, Syria and now towards North Korea.

American taxpayers issued a blank check (cheque) on Afghanistan and Iraq wars.

The combined operations cost them multi trillion dollars skyrocketing national debt and ever since billions are expended in pursuing hegemony agenda depriving United States population normal existence with a staggering fifty five millions on food stamps, significant number of people rendered homeless and dependent on charity.

Again the misplaced priority to consume lives rather than saving them with divestments from militarism into United States economy improving joblessness, infrastructure, health care, education, housing, environment and addressing rising poverty confirms political decisions on war policy reject American plight for Imperialistic aspiration.

United States renouncing violent pursuits would perhaps provide the world opportunity to focus on pervasive national development instead of substantial military spending draining respective states treasury for death and destruction.

U.S. belligerence enforce disproportionate defense budget allocations on developing and developed nations to benefit arms manufacturer, banking and energy industry denying growth in other areas of economic sector essential for survival.

American public demand that government invest resources on economy and national issues over aggression against foreign nations critical in dealing with economic woes and precarious future.

In the Korean issue, United States engagement with North Korea is uncalled for and allowing North and South Korea to reconcile differences would de-escalate tensions in the territory.

North and South Korea are quite capable of resolving the matter with United States non-interference that only exacerbates the problem.

United States war rhetoric is not helpful in the otherwise preventable confrontation.

Nuclear options contemplation is reckless and catastrophic to the region and the world at large.

Political discourse, diplomacy and peaceful negotiations are the only means for reconciliation between North and South Korea.

Any nation in opposition to peace and dialogue misrepresent sovereign and republic status.

United States refrainment from military course and respect for life, national sovereignty as well as rights to self-determination of independent nations is the viable approach to defend national and global security.

The leaderships of North Korea and South Korea are urged to pledge to peaceful settlement to safeguard Korean interests, freedom and national identity.

Wishing the leaders and people of North and South Korea permanent peace and successful reunification.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

Korean Peninsula – United States Exit From Region Critical For Peace

March 30, 2013

By Padmini Arhant

United States and South Korea military drill titled Key Resolve conducted on March 11 until March 21, 2013 involving 10,000 South Korean troops and 3,000 U.S. forces reiterated United States occupation in Korean Peninsula.

The flagrant display undoubtedly create rift under false pretext to protect South Korea when the situation since Korea’s partition has been the other way around with United States provocation against North Korea heightened in the past weeks stoking preparatory response from DPRK.

Despite North Korea’s repeat warnings to cease antagonistic military exercise not to mention economic warfare waged against DPRK population through U.S. illegal sanctions over decades, the recently imposed financial restrictions over and above trade embargo further exacerbate citizens plight.

The latest development also includes United States cyber attacks against DPRK official and government portals paralyzing essential activities along with flying nuclear capable B-52 stealth bomber over South Korea claimed as ‘deterrence’ action are clearly in violation of international law amounting to U.S. belligerence in the region.

Accordingly, North Korea having demonstrated extraordinary patience countered United States provocative measures with revoking armistice between the divided Korea and cancellation of hotline communication in the demilitarized zone.

Instead of de-escalating tensions, the United States signed a treaty with South Korea emphasizing renewal of military presence as well as arms and nuclear proliferation urging South Korea to move ahead even with perceived minima reaction from North Korea.

Considering United States contemporary aggression worldwide,

Notwithstanding sponsoring terrorism in Syria that has caused about 75,000 deaths and more counting with primitive methods like beheading victims and bombings of schools, Universities, hospitals, Church, Mosques and public sites on daily basis has left nearly a million refugees in deplorable and hostile conditions in Turkey and Jordan – the U.S. allies in the conflict.

United States current war mongering policy not barring nuclear threats under the so-called democrat and Nobel Peace Prize winning leadership arguably surpass much criticized Bush-Cheney administration.

Although, the condemnation of Bush-Cheney war crimes is justified still pending accountability due to incumbent authority guaranteed impunity to them pledging not to seek retribution over redemption.

The President as the commander-in-chief bear responsibility in military affairs exemplified in removal of General Stanley McChrystal, the former Chief of U.S. Armed Forces for off the record remark on the administration during the first term.

However, White House remaining defiant on substantial militarization in Asia Pacific alongside relentless drone strikes and proxy wars using terror networks in Syria is indicative of commitment to violence in opposition to peace and diplomacy.

United States political leaderships in the executive and legislative branch failure to adopt peaceful strategies on U.S. led hegemony manufactured international crises is a tradition maintained in the continuation of legacy at huge economic costs and most importantly innocent lives around the world.

The supremacy era is coming into conclusion necessitating the factions – Unites States and coalition to acknowledge changing geopolitical dynamics and paradigm shift in modern perspective rejecting superiority with global focus on equality and respect for national sovereignty, territorial integrity and indigenous society rights to self-determination.

Allowing the present standoff with North Korea to evolve into potential nuclear confrontation would be catastrophic for all and especially the United States given the vast troop deployment in Korean Peninsula and base in Japan.

United States comprehensive and complete troop withdrawal from Korea, Japan and elsewhere is the requirement for world peace and life survival based on past and ongoing turmoil consuming lives, livelihoods and entire planet resources to benefit those whose time on earth is limited yet they are determined to pursue counterproductive policies affecting billions with generational indebtedness and misery.

South Korea on the other hand surrendering sovereignty to foreign power rather than reconciliation with family in North Korea accommodates imperialist agenda to prolong subjugation and dominance experienced by citizens in Seoul and other parts of the country.

The increased violent incidents citing U.S. army personnel abuse taking undue advantage of detrimental Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA) deprives South Korean public any legal course against such crimes – a dilemma paradoxical to U.S. justification on occupation for South Korea’s security.

Hence, South Korean President Park Geun-Hye adherence to campaign promise declining war and unnecessary skirmishes with relatives in North Korea would clarify Seoul priority imperative to both North and South Korea’s existence and people safety.

Simultaneously, North Korea’s Premier King Jong-un frustration is understandable in the adversarial circumstances from aggressor.

Nonetheless equanimity is best suited to stifle desperate tactics favorable to none specifically the source i.e. United States and South Korea.

North Korean Premier Kim Jong-un resistance to foreign intervention would be effective upon initiating direct peace talks with South Korea and,

Similarly South Korean President Park Geun-Hye approach through political dialogue with North Korean leadership for amicable resolution of status quo is the only viable option preventing conventional war with nuclear exchange – an event unequivocally devastating to all sides regardless of military might and capability.

Violence begets violence and an eye for an eye will blind the world prevalent in hegemony loss of vision evidently self-destructive with imminent collapse.

Restraint combined with diligence and rationality on all sides is critical transforming apathy into empathy in respective republic and national interest.

Wishing the leaderships of sovereign North Korea Premier Kim Jon-un and President Park Geun-Hye of South Korea with citizens all together – success in re-establishment of Korea that cherishes peace and harmony with pervasive progress and prosperity conforming to cultural and national identity.

Peace to all

Thank you.
