Ukraine – The Playground for Power Game

January 25, 2022

Ukraine – The Playground for Power Game

Padmini Arhant

When there are hegemonic goals in play as witnessed throughout twentieth and twenty first century, the strategic interests are dominant over mythical democratization of nations around the world. 

The twenty first century has already presented far too many sequences in this regard using democracy as pretext to invade and destabilize nations in different parts of the world. 

The real threat to democracy and democratic systems are not the ones defiantly against the idea of democracy and individual liberty for such mindset is adamantly clear about authoritarianism as the open legitimate authority to rule and control the population. 

In fact, the doctrine endangering democracy and undermining democratic principles is the presumptuous concept of western democracy as idealistic and promoting western democracy in non-western regions of the world despite western democracy subjugation to globalists and deep state agenda in the west.

The unequivocal reality is reflected in status quo with western elections like in the United States subject to tech giants arbitrary censorship of public information on candidacy and political scandals.  The western media and press in pace with tech oligarchy spare no opportunity to bar and ban truth and facts from the public domain. 

The tradition installing pro-western governments and regimes in power regardless of adverse ramifications to citizens of any nation and geopolitical dynamics in the region to exclusively benefit western aspirations in every respect has failed and proved counterproductive thus far. 

The western military and political interventions in Ukraine like in many parts of the world were no different in outcome i.e. toppling governments causing chaos and catastrophe leaving the population of those nations in worst political, economic and social crises. 

Case in point – besides the twentieth century intrusions in Korean Peninsula, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia in South East Asia, Latin America, Africa and the Middle East experiencing irreversible deaths and devastations lasting several generations until now.

The twenty first century western invasions – United States and NATO alliance in the invasion and occupation of Afghanistan, Iraq in 2001 and 2003. The trend followed in Libya, Syria, Yemen, Sudan, Mali and Ukraine in 2010 – 2016 were major military and political aggressions in foreign land.

The color revolutions such as the undemocratic Orange revolution in Ukraine in November 2004 until January 2005 was just the beginning of western overt foothold in Ukraine politics.

The repeat scenario in Kiev maidan square in Ukraine in February 2014 triggered by EU economic deal fallout with then incumbent Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych government prompting United States’ direct involvements rallying the protestors in foreign soil was a preview of the western authorized militant takeover of the sovereign nation in 2014.

The western interference was further extended into the removal of the sitting Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych visibly in world view at gun point from office capturing global dismay. 

Notwithstanding the participation of fascists in the demonstrations in 2014 and neo-nazi government usurped to power entirely at United States and European Union behest hardly fit the definition of pro-democracy.

The United States bipartisan role in Ukraine in 2014 and thereafter with prominent political figures like the late Senator and former Republican Presidential candidate John McCain alongside the United States State department’s Victoria Nuland representing then democrat administration of President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden inciting the unruly mob on maidan square in Kiev, Ukraine in 2014 forced then ruling government of President Viktor Yanukovych to flee Ukraine seeking refuge in neighboring Russia.

The political corruptions exposing ties between United States highest office holders, their family members and Ukrainian political members as well as oligarchy is an open secret that barley attracted media and United States Congress attention or interest.

Ukraine as a nation along with the people are in the crossfire with democracy having no relevance to forces in confrontation aiming to establish specific strategic and economic influence.

The western democracy campaigned in favor of self-determination to sovereignty and territorial integrity is yet to demonstrate policy in action unlike the events unraveled in Kiev, Ukraine in 2014. 

On the other side, the Russian Federation troops deployment and military incursions around Ukraine is overzealous political decision in requirement of restraints replaced with rational approach.

The Russian President Vladimir Putin and Russia’s focus on peaceful negotiations, diplomacy and dialogue with western trading partners in Europe as consumers of Russia’s natural gas and United States representatives committed to peaceful resolutions averting protracted warfare would be welcome among Ukrainian and Russian citizens held hostage in the unnecessary conflict.

Any nation’s greatness is achieved in resolving and ending rising tensions with those near and far rather than engage in diffusion.

The two vastly nuclear powered Russia and the United States along with European allies working towards de-escalating situation in Ukraine is paramount for Ukraine sovereignty and stability.

The global peace and security is also a matter of great concern with the ongoing developments in Ukraine involving Russia and the United States as well as allies in the region.

Importantly, the pandemic related health and economic calamity having wreaked havoc on humanity, the warfare has no place or the option in the misguided political disagreements.

The military operations are costly and deadly with irrecoverable loss in lives and economic liability.

Ukraine’s sovereignty and independence is legitimate and merit recognition barring external coercion and hostility.

Ukraine commitment to transparency and fighting corruption within and outside with foreign sources would alleviate economic struggles for the citizens having suffered long enough from political instability caused by foreign meddling.

The citizens in western and eastern Ukraine as one nation and citizens in Russia deserve peaceful co-existence maintaining good economic, political and cultural relations benefiting each other and the rest in eastern Europe.

Finally, Ukraine or any other nation in the world could no longer be the playground for power game among political thoughts vying for regional and Super power status.

Wishing peace, progress and prosperity over stalemate bringing relief and recovery for the people in Ukraine and Russia.

Switzerland – WHO, WEF, UBS

January 17, 2022

Switzerland – WHO, WEF,UBS

Padmini Arhant

WHO – World Health Organization, Geneva, Switzerland. The international health body is yet to contain the global pandemic COVID19 extended into COVID22 with no short supply of inter-continental variants and mutants wreaking havoc in human lives thus far.

Meanwhile, profiteers raking fortune from the mandated vaccine and pandemic treatments are laughing all the way to UBS, Switzerland and tax havens in exotic shores feigning unfamiliarity with the idea of contentment. They are breathlessly making a killing from the bio-engineered virus caused breathlessness consuming lives and debilitating healthy lifestyle of mankind.

WEF – World Economic Forum, Davos, Switzerland unabashedly announced Great Reset absent relevant details to configure global financial system.

The WEF cardinal rule is aimed at the ordinary average citizens in the world  i.e. 99% will own nothing in financial assets is the public statement from the WEF founder Professor Klaus Schwab at the forum in 2019 and 2020. 

The 99% rights such as individual liberty, economic opportunity and financial security are effectively null and void.

Juxtaposed the 1% possession and entitlement to global resources and natural endowments to prolong for eternity.

WEF’s  Great reset was not possible without global economic shut down.

The WHO mismanaged COVID19 evolving into global pandemic conveniently necessitated world wide economic freeze linked to pandemic lockdown and the rest fell in place like a jigsaw puzzle.

UBS – Though publicly stated as not an acronym, the UBS is world renowned swish Swiss bank attracting legal and overwhelmingly illegal money from all corners of the world. The capital flight into the Swiss economy from diverse channels and entities as well as individuals unable to bury the illicit wealth in their domain park the funds at UBS and alike.

The trend depleting national treasury around the world in tax evasions and various unscrupulous nefarious transactions reach the high security nuclear stealth vaults at UBS and similar safe havens world over.

The pervasive corruption culture predominantly behind global poverty, hunger and disease in the otherwise plentiful planet earth thrives in the creation and mobilization of assets largely from developing nations into the developed world.

As a result, the super wealthy status is a matter of  transforming the regions with rich economic resources and human capital freely accessible for exploitation and excoriation. The tradition continued over centuries now exponentially capitalized by 1% representing the exclusive club in the world. 

The super rich competition is maintained within the trillionaire and billionaire circle with the rest of the population categorically informed about owning nothing in their name except debts and taxes remaining the irrevocable obligations in life for the 99% in the world.

Switzerland, the european nation and non– European Union (EU) member and neither a member of European Economic Area (EEA) proudly declared neutral state in warfare has also retained neutrality in fomenting and fostering corruption.

The Swiss financial system is the trend setter in this regard with majority world population deprived of basic to fair share of economic means in the unaccountable transfer of wealth by the rich, famous and powerful from different nations in the world.

The commonality in WHO, WEF and UBS  is besides Switzerland in geographic location, the three powerful organizations and institution representing health, economy and finance respectively – the lifeline and oxygen of human survival are instrumental in exacerbating human suffering with unmitigated crises experienced in the pandemic, economic and financial meltdowns adversely affecting human natural immunity compromised with unnatural events.

The fundamental change in these organizations renouncing corruption and restoring ethical functioning with transparency and accountability is the only way forward for global progress and prosperity.

The WHO assuming autonomy independent of any foreign governments’ influence and incentives is the preliminary step towards earning credibility as the world health body.

The WEF relinquishing control over nearly eight billion population destiny to benefit selective few amongst selves is the precursor for sustainable global economic growth and development.

The 1% economic status is directly tied to 99% stable and affordable living. 

Last but not the least, the UBS and other havens  rejecting unlawful illegitimate funds around the globe and myriad sources ranging in backgrounds not barring corruption, criminality, extortion, trafficking and smuggling etc. would exemplify Switzerland and European commitment in combating systemic corruption, the foremost element denying human population existence with basic needs and healthy social economic environment.

The individuals and companies from developing nations exposed in massive corruption scandals as well as implicated in bankrupting public savings in financial institutions are currently guaranteed safe passage to and refuge in Europe with impunity.

The European Union action in collective responsibility to curb corruption enacting extradition treaty with nations across the globe would detoxify the toxic activity crippling lives all around.

Where there is a will, there is a way!

India – Security Breach and Election Rally

January 16, 2022

India – Security Breach and

Authority Mind Set 

Padmini Arhant

When terror attacks are launched against any specific targets anywhere in the world, the terror groups wherever they are claim responsibility and let the world know of their present action.

There are also terror groups who have issued warnings to nations big and small of their future intentions perhaps extending courtesy to their potential victims of the forthcoming terrorism. The gesture creating the impression on terrorists’ resolve is unique.

In contrast, the highest government home ministry in the executive branch responsible for the safety and security of citizens and nation at large including the  head of the nation as Prime Minister is in hibernation and absolved of any accountability in the security breach matter.

The ruling BJP government in New Delhi via state run media is preoccupied in propagating information shifting blame on anyone regarded a fair game except them, the central authority’s interior ministry with entire national and PM security related apparatus directly under their control.

The odd developments preceding the security breach episode in Bathinda, Punjab is noteworthy.

The BJP government’s home minister in New Delhi reportedly commented to BJP colleague, the Meghalaya governor Satya Pal Malik on the Prime Minister’s mindset. The message arguably attracted  citizens’ attention.

The home minister in New Delhi raising questions on the incumbent Indian Prime Minister’s state of mind with above reference upon being taken into confidence by Meghalaya Governor on PM’s apathy to the tragic deaths and sacrifice of 700 or more farmers in the nearly two years peaceful non-violent march in the capital and northern states of India is an internal confirmation out in the open.

The security breach controversy in Punjab on January 5th again directly involving the home ministry in New Delhi is not beyond reasonable doubt in public mind regarding the relation between the home minister and Prime Minister in the capital New Delhi.

Usually the government key figures as the first and second in line with the latter aspiring to succeed in the immediate future are witnessed time and time again.  Sometimes, there are situations with conflict within two most powerful positions in government surface with inferences to mental and cognitive ability.

The Punjab security incident and the Prime Minister’s remark on surviving the event expressing politicized gratitude to interim Punjab Chief Minister further serve as a self-endorsement of the mindset statement proving the central government home minister’s view.

In a nutshell, the cat out of the bag pose predicament in any event management and damage mitigation.

Often times, something out or leaked from the direct source in government project a clear picture of reality for public notice.

Is God in Danger?

January 7, 2022

Is God in Danger?

Padmini Arhant

Update Jan 8, 2022 – The Indian media viz. India Today news debate titled ‘Who is to be blamed’ on the alleged security breach of BJP leadership and India’s PM in Bathinda, Punjab election rally.

The Indian media India Today host – Rajdeep Sardesai in the program reported the crowd gathered on the flyover where the VVIP convoy guarded with special protection guards and beefed up security were not protestors i.e. farmers in Punjab.

The program reports that they were in fact BJP supporters planted on the scene.”

The BJP ministers and those trending with the allegation on PM’s security breach are either oblivious   or resigned to selective politicized narrative on Punjab farmers and civilians gathering posed potential threat to PM’s layover on the overpass for 20 mins on that day.

The media account on BJP supporters brought over to the site near PM convoy creating unnecessary controversy to malign Punjab voters is apparently not politically convenient for the ruling party.

These reactions and activities are hardly surprising in the contentious political environment.

India’s incumbent PM’s political rallies since 2014 and until now are largely organized with mandatory public attendance.

The attendees especially the so-called Dalits and poorer sections in Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Rajasthan and all over India are brought to the rally venue by force beating them using brute force and intimidation that are well documented and available in public domain.

Accordingly, the BJP supporters presence on the flyover near PM’s convoy and not Punjab farmers or ordinary folks in Punjab as purported by BJP rank and file as well as cabinet ministers adopting appeasement strategy resonate with BJP’s routine policy.

Something is not right in the Hindutva system, New Delhi, India. 

The self-proclaimed God claim to have emerged from Kedarnath cave in what was constitutionally designed as SECULAR INDIA ominously transformed into rabid ideological fundamentalist political governance in New Delhi, India apparently in grave danger. 

The presumptuous God as the head of the government crying foul over alleged security lapse in the northern state Punjab amid heavily contested election campaign unravel two important things among other issues. 

The self-declared God ironically tainted with communal riots and minority cleansing legacy continued until today should have experienced premonition on any forthcoming life endangering incident to self and others well ahead of time. 

In that respect, the travel plan could have been cancelled thwarting the much propagated endangerment to life of the so-called God aka the political head of the nation. 

Another being, the political figure touted God could have fearlessly engaged with the frustrated farmers crowd branded protestors and alleged assassins without blowing the matter out of proportion in the election season. 

Again, those habitual of recycling failed strategy continue to expect different results regardless proving  stupidity as permanent mantra. 

On August 30, 2018 there was a similar propaganda on the alleged assassination of God designated as the nation’s chief leadership in New Delhi, India.

At that time utilizing the insidious policy, the central government deployed crony sycophantic media accused the government’s targeted individuals such as human rights activists, authors, writers and environmentalists among civil society advocacy groups as potential assassins. These civil society members were arbitrarily detained denying them habeas corpus with many held in undisclosed detentions till today is the reality. 

The hullabaloo over the politically anointed God’s life threatened by farmers and disenchanted citizens gathering in a reasonably distant area away from the VVIP’s convoy in Punjab disrobe the self-canonized God’s image. 

The ground situation in the entire charade confirm the citizens as electorate in Punjab declining the ruling national party chief’s visit for electoral gains rather than acknowledgment of dismal performance in resolving farmers grievances, mishandling of the surging pandemic and severe economic crises affecting population across the spectrum nationwide. 

The real God would have prior knowledge about any ill-omen individually or collectively and act accordingly without hue and cry witnessed at present. The theatrics conclusively verify political opportunism. 

The repeat episodes from 2018 and now in 2021 categorically corroborate assassination of facts and status quo rejecting asserted political expediency.

Authoritarian Despotism Case Study

December 28, 2021

Authoritarian Despotism Case Study

Padmini Arhant

What leads to authoritarianism?

There are several factors that leads to authoritarian rule in a system.

The first and foremost is weak or lack of opposition to incompetence, corrupt and criminal activities in government and leadership.

No checks and balances is the cornerstone of authoritarianism.

The constitution is made irrelevant and inconvenient under authoritarian power.

The economy is segregated into the poorest, poor, lower income and middle income comprising the work force with these groups classified as mere working class and among them the middle class are taxpayers. 

Juxtaposed, the upper middle class, wealthy and super rich stash wealth offshore, deplete national treasury in tax evasion and money laundering. This group become the authoritarian stalwarts in quid pro quo. The hierarchy in society premised on social economic status enable authoritarian rule.

The media, press and communication outlets become the voice of the dictatorial leadership heading the failed government. There are overt and covert operatives with mainstream conventional media representing and protecting authoritarian flagrant violations.

Whereas the other touted as the so-called independent and investigative media is another wing of authoritarian regime to mislead public in nuanced narratives and by far the ardent promoter of authoritarianism with false accounts on the leadership so-called popularity and charisma in contradiction to ground reality. The blatant fabrication is aimed at adding insult to human intelligence.

The successive defeats in big state elections, the fear of losing upcoming elections based on electorate disillusionment with leadership at national as well as local government prompting postponement of state assembly elections would not be happening at the height of any leadership’s immense popularity and irresistible charisma projected by the media circus favoring authoritarianism.

The old adage – it is better to deal with the devil you know than the devil you don’t know.  The devil in disguise is a major threat in any situation aptly applicable to the above mentioned deliberate deception and deceit.

Anything out in the open is at least visible. In contrast the insinuations and innuendoes from the so-called independent media claim to delineate from mainstream are the intimate bed fellows hard wired with authoritarianism in the wireless digital era. Accordingly, with all form of communication channels including the social media under control, the rise of authoritarianism is no longer veiled in euphemism.

Additionally, the systematic control and takeover of institutions beginning with judiciary, government agencies such as intelligence bureau, income tax, the central reserve bank and financial institutions are brought under the executive branch purview and direct authority. The absolute rein over these organizations further enhance and energize authority in silencing dissent.

In other words, the constitutionally empowered autonomous body are dismantled and centralized under the leadership at the helm.

The civil servants are delegated to propaganda and constant misinformation to condition public mind on taxpayers funded government dissemination and indoctrination.

Above all, the dangerous move ominously raising the red flag is when the executive branch in a Parliamentary system unilaterally shift the military command from the President to Prime Minister’s ambit. The civilian leadership posing in military camouflage outfit could not be a mere fashion statement.

The most common trait in dictatorial governance is targeting a particular demography, pawn religion as political ideology, subvert constitution governed secular democracy to fundamentalist, radical rhetoric arousing majoritarianism.

The political twists and turns of twenty first century authoritarianism compared to previous century of Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Benito Mussolini, the combined dictatorial regimes in Latin America, Africa, Middle East and Asia is the glaring transformation of democracy into fascism today.

In the past century, the dictators enforced authoritarian rule gradually with convincing socialism, communism and majoritarian rule.

In fact the idea of socialism, communism and pluralism veneered underlying coarse rough crude fascism in the making. These concepts were conveniently misused to subjugate population.

Without a shadow of doubt, the imperialists and major economic stakeholders’ direct and indirect involvement in the creation and nurture of dictatorial powers worldwide contributed to extensive authoritarian rule lasting several decades into the twenty first century continued until now.

The difference between then and present time is  transparency. The modern day witness and aware of oligarchs appointed and approved governments typically puppet regimes installed to serve oligarchy feudal system antithetical to constitution, secular pluralist democracy and capitalism with real market economy.

In terms of economic system, the contemporary trend overwhelmingly favor and positioned as monopolists economy displacing the capitalism defined competitive market economy.

The ongoing developments are far worse than in any other time. The global elites – the tech giants owned social platform arbitrary censorship of facts and truth in public domain is the fact of life despite free speech infringement.

The cancel culture evolving into intrusion and invasion of individual rights, life and privacy is carried out as prerogative. Notwithstanding restrictions on decisions related to personal health, lifestyle and well being is the latest law. 

Apparently, the individual liberty to exercise discretion on all things concerning personal life is no longer private matter. Instead it is entirely left to powerful groups in health industry and various dealers, shakers and movers in global syndicate. 

Politically, the authoritarian government transcending to autocracy with elections reduced to formality or even better deferred and delayed to suit individual interests especially when the odds are against incumbency is yet another sign of unpopularity, impropriety and carte blanche authority in full view. These are clear omens initiating 24/7 propaganda to mitigate image damage and event management. 

What is the role of academia, religious consortium and influential civil society in the manufacture of autocracy?

Unfortunately there are divisions in this respect as well.

One section of society presumably representing any or all of the above specified groups are very active in exalting autocracy such as drawing parallels from the past authoritarian style even it happened half a century ago to justify current autocratic rule. Again the reminder about the past authoritarianism invariably fails to note fatal consequences to that effect.

In other issues, they go further and normalize autocrat perversions via Pegasus and variety spyware with references from western activities rather than condemning the lewd indulgence not boding well for any civilized society and a make-believe democracy. It is plain complicity in elevating autocracy.

The other group conversely choosing to remain silent spectators entirely in self-interests is a do nothing segment until own experience dawn on them. This category falls under complacency.

Either groups do more harm in their respective ways than imaginable.

On the other hand, the rare righteous voice against autocracy is often under relentless attack from all directions for standing up to cronyism buttressed authoritarianism.

Upon righteous prevailing in the interception of autocracy, the complicit and complacent parties cited above would be in forefront to enjoy the benefits and fruitful outcome completely sidelining and rejecting righteous function in the entire cause. Such response is routine and hardly surprising. 

The opportunists and wannabes massive collusion in the rise of despotic dictatorial regimes inevitably fall together in the zero-sum game of democracy vs. dictatorship since time immemorial. 

There is glimpse of hope provided the republic repudiate autocracy neutralizing ravaging autocratic environment.

Africa – Equatorial Guinea

December 26, 2021

Africa – Equatorial Guinea

Padmini Arhant

Source – Public Domain – 60 Minutes Australia on Equatorial Guinea further elaborate status quo.

It’s interesting to note that apparently not all authoritarian regimes in the world are bad in the eyes of global syndicate comprising corporate conglomerate from diverse economic sector worldwide. 

The oil companies for example like the counterparts in multinational operations appear to have no qualms with dictatorial governments, military junta, despotic leaderships…leading in oppression, persecution and gross human rights violation in the country they rule as a law unto themselves. 

As for the oil giants – the tradition to dig in the oil rigs sparing change in the form of royalty paid to puppet regimes installed as governments with rampant exploitation by oil behemoths trickled down to the population is regarded a fine setting. 

The global resources and natural endowments gifted by nature for survival and sustainability of all living species on earth amassed among the selective few is the norm.

The practice deserting overwhelming majority in generational debt and endless misery is the unfortunate depressing tale well into the twenty first century. 

The gluttonous greed has no boundary or limit. The policy is to seize any opportunity to excoriate earth endangering lives for exclusive benefits and privileges of the offenders as entitlement in the dark age. 

The exploitative behavior is resigned to all for me and none for you dogma feigning unfamiliarity and no acquaintance with satisfaction. The contentment factor is not in the equation in the over consumption and absorption of fortune at the native population expense. 

The appalling apathy to life other than own amongst exploiters engaged in ravenous deprivation is the last straw in human value degradation. The mega profiteers’ unconscionable indulgence ignoring the victims i.e. the citizens’ excruciating plight in the country with valuable oil and mineral reserves depleted by foreign corporation and their appointee as the head of the nation is definitely not unique to Equatorial Guinea alone. 

The commonality in dictatorial governments is rather than eliminating or alleviating poverty, they invariably attempt and authorize hiding impoverished conditions by prohibiting filming of the slums by domestic and foreign media. Alternatively, to create false impression divest public money i.e. taxpayers funds to raise a wall to veil economic reality in the poorer neighborhoods of the city. 

The global control by corporations viz. the oligarchs and their representative governments are primary contributors in expanding the gap between haves and have-nots diminishing hope and expectations among the lower income, the poor and the poorest denied better present and future. 

The pattern is established world over through greasing palm and grinding poverty co-existence with the nation’s leadership turning the back on own people abandoned to their ill fate.

Unless and until the corporate dominance and oligarchy rein over politics, economic and global affairs cease or at most contained, the human lives in most parts of the world would continue to bear no significance to political rulers and economic stakeholders defiant in maintaining status quo. 

Equatorial Guinea President Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo abuse of power, corruption and execution of opposition members might be least concerning to oil companies like Exxon Mobil and western partners in the profit game.

However, the selective western strategy to accept certain dictatorial systems as viable partners to suit economic interests and isolate any other as threat to humanity cast credibility issue in western position and assessment of democracy and humanitarian cause. 

The unequivocal fact in all of the above situation is the victims and victimizers leave the world without exception and only their deeds determine the onward destiny

United States – The Great State of Texas Unprecedented Action

December 25, 2021

United States – The Great State of Texas Unprecedented Action

Padmini Arhant

The great state of Texas headed by Governor Greg Abbott, state legislature and American patriots’ relentless efforts to contain the border crises in the absence of federal actions or interest merit attention and appreciation. 

The border issue is not limited to Texas alone or any other states only for that matter. The open border invitation from the current Biden-Harris administration in the White House impetus unmitigated disaster in many fronts for the entire nation in the United States. 

The border across Mexico is the gateway for drug cartels, human traffickers, arms smugglers…variety of unscrupulous nefarious activities hurting population seeking asylum in the United States as well as importantly endangering safety and security of states sharing the border and United States in entirety. 

The combined actions of Texas governor Greg Abbot administration, Texas state legislature along with other authorities in Texas state, besides national guard, coastal guard, border patrol agents risking their lives to prevent the above mentioned illegal trespassing and contraband is commendable

In contemporary politics, the elected leaderships in governance leaving politics behind over real challenges confronting the state and nation are rare and out of question.

That being the case, the Texas government under Governor Greg Abbot and others’ concerted coordination prioritizing citizens and national interests above all and securing the border is refreshing and unprecedented in the highly politicized climate never missing any opportunity on issues and situation as potential electoral advantage. 

The southern state Texas leading the way in protecting own citizens and the rest of the country in this regard i.e. containing cross border intrusions expanded into major threat is an effective measure. 

The White House Biden-Harris administration heeding United States citizens’ concerns as residents in Texas and other states in similar cross border quagmire could alleviate burden on the state like Texas abandoned to deal with national emergency alone. 

The lone star Texas brave and bold engagement with the border wall and relevant humane intervention to save lives all around is extraordinary and valuable. 

Thank you.

India – Politics Endangering Life

India – Politics Endangering Life

Padmini Arhant

The latest incident involving ruling BJP government Union Minister for State, Home Affairs – Ajay Mishra’s son Ashish Mishra in Lakhimpur Kheri, Uttar Pradesh accused of murder of four farmers and a journalist in addition to three more victims including 2 BJP workers adding to a total of eight fatalities in the gruesome voluntary manslaughter using a SUV driven by the accused in the incident.

The Indian Supreme Court directed Special Investigations Team have reported the following on the Lakhimpur Kheri Case.

The incident was a planned conspiracy. The four farmers were mowed down by the accused Ashish Mishra driving a SUV on October 3, 2021 killing four more individuals in the deliberate assault on peaceful dissenting farmers protesting the BJP’s anti-agrarian laws in the country. 

The background of the accused – Ashish Mishra is the son of Union Minister of State for Home Affairs, Ajay Mishra representing the BJP ruling government. 

“The public profile of the politician is – Ajay Mishra is a Member of Parliament in the 17th Lok Sabha. He is the current Minister of State in Ministry of Home affairs, Government of India. He represents the Kheri constituency of Uttar Pradesh and is a member of the Bharatiya Janata Party political party.”

Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government cabinet minister Ajay Mishra remains intact in his position despite the serious charges against his son in Lakhimpur Kheri case. 

This is not an isolated incident related to political party members causing civilian deaths with no repercussions to their political status in a system declared a democracy. 

On February 23, 2020  – the violence erupted against non- violent peaceful assembly of citizens on Citizenship Amendment Act, the controversial CAA passed by the BJP government in New Delhi.

The peaceful demonstration with men, women and senior citizens on CAA voicing their concerns on the legislation passed by the BJP government in December 2019 turned into a major tragedy. 

The participants in this instance were attacked by unruly mob instigated by interestingly yet another Mishra, the BJP Minister Kapil Mishra remaining in power until today.

The BJP Minister Kapil Mishra on public platform in New Delhi openly threatened the peaceful protesters on CAA adding they would be dealt with harsh force.

As stated the violence against the public on anti-CAA protest resulted in 53 casualties with majority among them reported as Muslims and others were the so-called Dalits of the Hindu caste based outcasts. The severely injured in this violence range from 200-250 and 2000 or more families reportedly displaced without any compensation or rehabilitation. 

The independent fact finding committee initiated by Delhi Minorities Commission (DMC) last year in 2020 concluded the violence on February 2020 qualified as pogrom after taking into account credible public testimonies and legal course reviewed complaints filed in the aftermath of the terrible communal onslaught. 

Similarly, Pragya Singh Thakur aka Sadhvi Pragya, is an Indian politician and Member of Parliament of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). representing Bhopal  Madhya Pradesh is another member in the category of politicians with criminal record.

The BJP MP Pragya Thakur accused of terrorism in 2008 Malegaon blasts case with ongoing trial on the matter is a sitting MP in the BJP ruling party. 

On the glamor front, Indian politics’ close ties and alliance with Indian cinema and sports recruiting film and sports personalities is a common trend across the political spectrum. 

The BJP MP from Mathura, Uttar Pradesh in the Central ruling government –  bollywood star Hema Malini’s direct involvement in hit and run manslaughter on July 2nd, 2015 caused the tragic death of a three-year-old child, reportedly a passenger in the car critically damaged in the head on collision with the bollywood actress public funded Mercedes Benz on the national highway junction Agra – Jaipur that fatal night.

The injured family with a child battling for her life in the car hit by the bollywood actress’ Mercedes Benz on the highway were abandoned by the Lok Sabha MP, supposedly the political representative of Indian citizens in the Parliament.

According to eyewitnesses – the accident clearly resulted from over speed of the bollywood actress vehicle. The bollywood actress Hema Malini insisting the driver accelerate to minimize travel time landed the driver and his family in indefinite misery with the driver booked and arrested for the fatality in the accident. 

Meanwhile the bollywood actress was absolved of any wrongdoing and to add insult to injury, the actress tweeted and reported to glamor enamored media that the deceased child’s family were at fault for the fatal accident.

There was no apology or remorse from the bollywood actress BJP MP Hema Malini on this preventable civilian death and collateral loss to others’ such as the driver and family’s plight. 

Last but not the least, the Bollywood star Salman Khan’s drunken driving leading to hit and run manslaughter claiming a pedestrian’s life and several injured is treated as a freak accident due to star studded factor.

The demised pedestrian’s family losing an earning member is a legal case with no end in sight. The Bollywood star Salman Khan is provided immunity by the ruling BJP government with the court case on this issue serving as the laughing matter on judiciary process. Not to mention the apathy to victims and lifetime impact on the victims’ family. 

These evidences suffice on the politics’ attitude and actions towards public, the citizens empowering them with political power and stardom.

Obviously, the ordinary citizens’ life bear no significance or relevance to those abusing the privileged status granted by the same people as electorate and audience in the political and social theater. 

Until today none of these individuals implicated and involved in these crimes with fatalities have been affected in terms of their political and celebrity status.

The political parties faking their pledge to defend average citizens on campaign trail continue to enjoy political impunity with no harm to their powerful disposition despite the latter harming and hurting public with no legal, political or social ramifications on crimes committed at will.

In the assessment of ethical, moral and humanitarian grounds, the question is appropriate.

Who needs such people endangering life with no regrets?

The worst of all them as chief representatives in politics and entertainment remain the existential threat to general public safety and well being.

The RSS run political party BJP with these members as their representatives is conveniently resigned to do nothing policy. 

Contrarily, the fundamentalist ideology rescue these individuals’ criminality with religious shroud chanting Jai Sri Ram, a blasphemous trait without a shadow of doubt in the contemporary tradition.

The only option and alternative is for the citizens as voters to remove them from office through ballots and reject politics proved detrimental to republic security.

Korean Peace Agreement

Padmini Arhant

The leaderships in North Korea Kim Jong-Un and South Korean President Moon Jae-in agreement on declaration to end Korean war between North and South on December 13, 2021 is a welcoming beginning in the dawn of peace in Korean Peninsula. 

The formal agreement between the two nations i.e. North and South Korea to bring the prolonged conflict that was paused on armistice until now transitioning into conclusion of warfare is fair and appropriate.

Now moving forward the long overdue permanent peace treaty would transform the hope of Korean families on both sides in North and South into reality.

The leaderships in Pyongyang and Seoul decision to move away from warfare and proceed towards peace merit recognition and appreciation.

Though the accord weighing in on numerous factors understandably reached in principle in the present time, the leadership from North Korea – Kim Jong-un and South Korean President Moon Jae-in accelerating the process into practicality would be direct acknowledgment of Korean citizens essentially the families on both sides of the great nation of Korea. 

There is no doubt the people in Korea especially the citizens with relations on both sides of the country have suffered enormously and the people in North Korea in particular have endured tremendous challenges up until now. The economic plight of North Korean population could be alleviated in improving and fostering better ties with South Korea in every respect.

Similarly South Korean citizens could experience peace and tranquility without the dark clouds of warfare and uncertainty hovering over the peninsula. 

The news is also cordial for the neighbors like Japan and the entire South East Asian region deserving normal environment for economic activities and overall peaceful engagement all around. 

The responsibility and maturity is reflected in the much anticipated approach with expectation among citizens for consistency and continued efforts in perseverance eventually leading to successful reunification of Korea. 

Once again, the leaderships in North Korea Kim Jong-un and South Korean President Moon Jae-in maintaining peaceful discourse in the development of strong partnerships in all fronts would benefit the people in Korea in unison. The peace initiatives and involvements on both sides would eventually deliver the desirable outcome – Korea as one nation sharing the strengths and prosperity. 

Best Wishes on the Peaceful Reunification of Korea!
