United States – Congressional and State Elections 2011
May 21, 2011
By Padmini Arhant
Special election scheduled on May 24, 2011 in New York 26th Congressional district is on spotlight with the race between the Republican candidate Jane Corwin and the Democrat Kathy Hochul reportedly in dead heat predominantly due to GOP plan to overhaul Medicare and Rep. Paul Ryan’s controversial budget.
Democrat contender Kathy Hochul is presumably neither self nor special interests-funded and projected to be a fierce fighter for working class given her impressive track record as the Erie County Clerk and having previously worked for Congressional members John LaFalce and the late US Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan distinctively confirming Washington experience compared with her opponents in the election.
In semblance with the dilemma experienced by mainstream representatives against lobbyists’ funded political opponents in any election,
The disproportionate money factor is a major challenge for the determined and dedicated political aspirant, Kathy Hochul.
Unless the tradition is broken with massive voter interjection rejecting such candidacies, it would be extremely difficult for any genuine leadership to emerge at the local and national level.
As stated earlier on numerous occasions, politics run by corporate power and multinational influence is formidable with the political mandate easily swayed through smear campaigns distracting public from electorate-concerned issues.
Reiterating the previous statement in this regard, people have the power to enforce the change necessary beginning with invalidating the money power right from the campaign trail to the Congressional halls and chambers that has successfully undermined democracy rendering the electoral process a mere formality.
Democrat nominee Kathy Hochul is favored to counteract the multi-faceted representation in Congress on various issues and apparently committed to her constituents in NY-26 district including the people across the state and the nation.
The voters in New York 26 Congressional district are requested and urged to pay attention to the prevalent trend with campaign promises made to the people remaining a political rhetoric,
While the pledge to campaign contributors fulfilled in legislation prepared and drafted by none other than the relevant industry and foreign interests.
Please come forward and contribute to Democrat Kathy Hochul campaign for meaningful democratic voice in Congress conspicuously missing among the majority responsible for the status quo.
The democrat Kathy Hochul’s triumph in the red district could make history given the election in the constituency won by republican candidates with the exception of three democrats’ success in the past century.
Democrats, Republicans and Independents alike have a unique opportunity to elect the democrat Kathy Hochul in promoting the average American cause.
Please extend your generous support with affordable donations to democrat Kathy Hochul’s campaign for a landslide victory on May 24, 2011.
Similarly the state of Wisconsin is set for recall elections in July 2011 with six Republican members failure to address the state problems and,
Instead launched attacks on workers and middle class families – the contemporary political scapegoat for lawmakers sworn allegiance to campaign financiers.
Wisconsin Republican candidates against ordinary citizens are endowed with political cash machine operated by veteran election maneuverers like former political adviser to Bush-Cheney administration, Karl Rove and Koch Brothers in addition to corporate money supply.
Their agenda has been to eliminate middle class and push the lower income families to the lowest economic strata.
Sadly, they have achieved their goals widening the gap between the haves and have-nots.
Republic rule has been systematically replaced with corporate and finance sector dominance buying elections through investment in political campaigns ensuring phenomenal returns on specific industry oriented matter much to the population detriment.
The question is directed to the victims – the people in the state of Wisconsin, Ohio, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey…and across the nation.
The top 1 percent deriving economic prospects at the remaining population expense having become the norm,
What would it require to energize the voters with real power in restoring the government of the people, for the people and by the people?
Indeed there is greater urgency to reverse the process – only possible through active voter participation to reclaim fair income distribution and equality in many aspects.
Electorates can no longer be complacent to the systemic abuse of democratic system increasingly exploited by various business and political factions focused on self-interest than citizens’ or national interest.
Therefore, the electorates in New York 26th Congressional district could potentially alter the course in a positive direction by casting their vote for democrat Kathy Hochul and,
Likewise electing Progressives against Republican lawmakers recognized for their crusade to protect the wealthiest and disenfranchise the rest is paramount to revive economic and political viability.
Please exercise diligence in the democratic right by electing leadership loyal to voters and not sponsors of the individual political career with vested interests.
Best Wishes and Good Luck to Democrat Kathy Hochul of New York 26th Congressional district, Progressives in Wisconsin, Ohio, Michigan, New Hampshire and other parts of the nation for a glorious electoral outcome.
Thank you.

New World Order Defiance
May 16, 2011
By Padmini Arhant
The shadow government in control of world affairs remains defiant in defending the actions thus far despite causing immense suffering to humanity.
While upholding self-righteousness and assertions to privacy on public matter, the members defending the U.S. raid in the alleged killing of Osama Bin Laden and the Bush-Cheney administrations’ policies confirm their loyalty to secret society.
The insinuations and attacks enacted in the recent U.S. operation in Abbottabad, Pakistan aimed at the truth seeker is beneath human character exhibiting belligerence thereby expediting the pseudo empire’s inevitable downfall – witnessed in history since time immemorial.
Further denigrating ancient religion on the U.S. Senate floor is an affirmation of the member’s allegiance to New World Order germinating intolerance to other religions, race or ethnicity.
Simultaneously expecting collusion to the catastrophic agenda is anything but democratic.
New World Order derived from imperialistic feudalism has successfully reined control over the global resources and territories through illegal invasion and colonization with the continuous trend in polarization and truth subversion to benefit the privileged few at the rest of the global population plight.
The current demand for cooperation towards status quo to advance human and planet annihilation is declined beckoning civility rather than hostility on airwaves and other medium at disposal.
Moreover the bizarre caricaturing and typecasting is mirroring the sponsors’ personal image as well as characteristics depicting desperate times seeking desperate measures.
Besides bankrupting the U.S. economy with adverse impact on the world economy,
New World Order roadmap has only led to Death Valley with relentless wars without justification and at worst false premise resulting in horrendous loss of lives, carnage and destruction.
The latest circumvention on the mock CIA interrogation in the alleged U.S. elimination of Osama Bin Laden in Pakistan is a formality refuting reality especially with CIA investigating CIA involvement.
Similarly the officials from Bush-Cheney administration currently deluding 9/11 facts in the corroboration are yet another attempts to deflect from the masqueraded truth behind the horrific homeland terrorism.
Across the Atlantic, the International Court of Justice issuing arrest warrant to Gaddafi is welcome and a refreshing course in dealing with the Libyan regime atrocity towards civilian population leading to mass graves.
However, concurrently declaring the Libyan dictatorship dismissal of ICC Warrant raises credibility factor in the development debilitating ICC power as the international judiciary against leadership demonstrably irresolute nonetheless portrayed otherwise.
Indeed a litmus test for the International Court of Justice used at NWO will – whether toppling Lebanon’s democratically elected government or rejecting the UN appointed Goldstone report on Israeli and Hamas war crimes following 2008 Israeli attack on Gaza.
Likewise in Egypt, the army rule under Supreme Council operating with substantial U.S. military aid is NWO direct implementation arguably reinstating authoritarian rule in the post Mubarak crackdown on peaceful civilian protesters.
The tradition to diminish republic empowerment is visibly vigorous threatening the functioning and emergence of democracy worldwide.
Reiterating the earlier call for universal dissent against New World Order – responsible for systemic abuse of power, wealth amassment, military aggression evolving into nuclear threats and above all,
Impunity to political establishment in the License to kill discretionary power without any moral or legal implications.
Notwithstanding gross human rights violation via torture, renditions, waterboarding, detainees without due process and,
Targeting certain ethnic minority in the civilian society with wiretapping, surveillance, harassment at the airport…under the guise of national security and Patriot Act.
Ironically the reverse surveillance and acute monitoring of these entities and their activities is pertinent for it would unequivocally save lives and protect humanity from potential disasters given the trajectory and refusal to submit evidences for public scrutiny.
The revelations could perhaps unveil real identity behind the unpatriotic decisions.
Whenever there are double standards exempting the explicit crimes from any investigation or accountability and,
Contrarily subjugating the transparent and honest demeanor,
It exemplifies the contemporary society’s regress to medieval period.
Persistence in this regard would be futile for all things must end in order to adapt to the evolutionary process.
Life and freedom suppressed in the so-called democracy governed by forces sworn to secrecy and discreet policies is hegemonic with serious ramifications in semblance to pre-World War II.
It’s time to renounce the parallel government – an overcast hindering bright sunshine effectively endangering life on the planet.
Hence it is incumbent upon the voices for democracy world over to galvanize in restoring liberty, opportunity and social equality for all.
People possess the power to promote progress in every aspect. The dormant society is an easy access for dominance.
Please act now to end the pervasive violence, economic disparity, political upheavals and social injustice once and for all attributed to ‘classified’ and clandestine activities under New World Order.
Peace to all!
Thank you.

May 14, 2011
By Padmini Arhant
When the political establishment in the so-called democracy is protected with impunity and exempted from any accountability, the political system could no longer be identified as the republic rule.
The mainstream press and media as well as certain networks in cohort with political power decision to defy public demand in bringing the culprits behind 9/11 to justice,
Illegal invasion of Iraq under false pretext that has claimed thousands of U.S and coalition troops’ lives not to mention the millions of innocent civilian deaths and displacement.
Similarly Osama Bin Laden died a decade ago and the recent alleged elimination through extrajudicial execution in a unilateral decision without any evidences,
Hence severely lacking in credibility is slighted making a mockery of democracy.
New World Order sworn to secrecy convene meetings in secret locations barring journalists and press corps from the public domain with the NWO media personnel to cover the event and,
The members representing the powerful wings of political, economic, mass media, military, intelligence, royalty…formulate policies on global matter without the world population knowledge or consent.
The premium membership provides exclusive privileges like high profile and key positions in the international organizations such as IMF, World Bank and United Nations.
Notwithstanding government leaderships regardless of the political system represented in the United States, EU, Middle East, Africa and Asia.
Most importantly the value added benefit from NWO membership is derived from –
Authorization to illegal invasion and occupation of foreign land,
Reserve the right to kill in a underworld style,
Toppling democratically elected governments for political and strategic advantage with IMMUNITY as these actions are never even recognized a crime.
NWO is a conglomerate comprising powerful forces thus far responsible for the status quo.
Obviously the objectives being dominate the world as a shadow government undermining and depriving citizens meaningful democracy across the globe.
NWO aim evidenced in the surreptitious and blatant attacks to amass world resources for distribution among the few amid causing death, chaos and carnage is tolerated by those complacent and apathetic to the vast majority plight.
It is poignant to highlight the United States and allies’ role in the systematic military aggression and use of force in various parts of the world under NWO chartered course to establish one world controlled by the nexus group having successfully derailed economic prospects, political stability and suppressing social equality through unpopular governments appointed against electoral mandate and virtue of royalty viz.
Afghanistan, Iraq, Egypt, Yemen, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Jordan …to name a few.
New World Order economic pursuit is diversified and reflected in energy, finance, agriculture, health, education etc.
Health insurance and health care industry reining control over the health care legislation in the IUnited States unfolded during the health care deal between the industry and the White House that guarantees 30 million mandatory subscribers to the health insurers facilitating exploitative incentives with no premium caps on the subscription.
Social Security privatization as seen in France Pension plan with extended retirement age much against public revolt is already making its way through in the U.S. Congress.
Energy policy designed and developed by the energy behemoths in the oil, mining and nuclear industry much to the environment disaster are granted unlimited access to conduct offshore deep and shallow water drilling including hydrofracking, mountaintop removal for mining, nuclear power plants without safe disposal of nuclear waste – despite catastrophic impact on life and the habitat.
In the United States, the energy industry especially the oil companies, coal and nuclear sectors are currently in the process of receiving tax subsidies per the latest Congressional hearing.
Elsewhere the energy minister is erroneously the environment minister strongly defending the coal, oil and nuclear industry.
Challenging the energy industry against planet destruction has been a daunting task for the environmental groups.
In fact the environment organizations coming together as a single indomitable force is necessary to save the planet from ruin.
The fragmented environment organizations unified measures would be formidable in achieving the desired goals than otherwise.
With respect to foreign policy – The U.S. State department has conspicuously moved away from the real purpose of restoring peace, diplomacy and democracy.
On the contrary the track record exemplified in espionage, coup d’état, illegal wiretapping and advice to conceal evidences in national and international issue viz. Osama Bin Laden alleged killing in Abbottabad, Pakistan.
The Defense department and Intelligence agencies maintaining synonymous trajectory worldwide in the supposed war on terror and violation of civil liberties with utter disregard for life and international law exhibited in the prolonged detentions without due process in Guantanamo bay, torture, renditions, mercenary operatives in occupied territories overseas resulting in the local population calamity and embarrassment for the nation.
Congressional lawmakers and judiciary alike until now have not taken any initiative to inquire, investigate and indict anyone with the justice department under White House concerted declaration to extend ‘classified’ information indefinitely claiming redemption and not retribution in the matter to absolve them on prevalent wrongdoings.
The pattern continues with the political class particularly the executive branch systemic abuse of power on national and global issues refuting ground reality and rejecting the request for transparency.
Former President George W. Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, White House political adviser and Confidante Karl Rove, Former CIA Director George Tenet, Former U.S. Secretaries of State Gen. Colin Powell, Condoleezza Rice, Attorney Generals John Ashcroft and Alberto Gonsalez…
Not excluding the Military Commanders and Intelligence officials serving at that time are –
Required to stand trial for 9/11 truth behind horrific attacks.
Prolonging Afghanistan war under the pretext “Hunt for Osama Bin Laden” after knowing and admitting that CIA aided leader Osama Bin Laden was dead in Dec 2001.
Illegal invasion of Iraq under false premise.
Vice President Dick Cheney for Halliburton related various corporate and war crimes.
Bankrupting the U.S. economy generating global economic depression.
Ex-Prime Minister Tony Blair – a staunch advocate for Iraq war promoting the agenda that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction proved not to be true.
Abu Ghraib, Guantanamo bay, torture, renditions – the torture authors Professor John Yoo, Judge Jay Bybee for their contribution in the treatment of combat and non-combat prisoners held in different detention cells in the United States and foreign soil.
NSA wiretapping, surveillance and private citizens personal data infiltration through Patriot Act.
Ironically, the crimes have been consistently committed by authorities at the helm posing a major security threat to citizens world over.
International Court of Justice is selectively utilized at NWO will. If not, justice would have been served to the millions victimized in the absolute authoritarianism disguised in myriad format.
In the present administration – Beginning with the Office of Presidency,
President Barack Obama for Health Care Scandal and dismissal of the public plea to clarify on the pact with Health Insurance industry – 30 million mandatory subscribers with penalty imposed on Health Care law non-compliance to become effective partially in 2012 and entirely in 2014. At the same time no restrictions on premium hikes against health insurance industry.
Expanding wars and troops deployment in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Yemen and now Libya on unsubstantiated grounds.
Refusal to ban landmines and unwilling to ratify the international treaty.
Collusion with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for permanent troops presence in the Palestinian State of West Bank, Gaza and East Jerusalem thereby halting the Israeli-Palestinian peace process.
Bush-Cheney doctrine confirming NWO motto continued on economy, environment, foreign policy and warfare.
Skyrocketing national debt at $14.3 trillion burdened on middle class and lower income America.
Yet unwillingness to contain extravagant defense expenditure and coherence with opposition to Bush tax cuts extension for the wealthy.
Corporations exporting jobs overseas rewarded with consul positions at the White House.
Coup d’état against democratic governments – Honduras, Ecuador, Lebanon…
North Korea peace talks conveyed through former U.S. President Jimmy Carter ignored and instead approved provocative military exercise with South Korea on the Yellow Sea escalating tension with the nuclear nation.
Turkey threatened with possible coup during the Flotilla crisis involving Palestine.
Iraq – Permanent military base contemplated with the appointment of pro-Iranian government headed by Prime Minister Nouri Al-Maliki leading the nation to bloodbath and sectarian violence.
Iran facing potential nuclear attack in the emphatic Presidential statement underscoring all options considered to desist Iran’s nuclear ambition rather than addressing nuclear proliferation predominantly emanating from the hierarchical nuclear proliferation treaty affecting the nuclear and non-nuclear states.
Proposal on U.N. Security Council reconfiguration with memberships from Brazil, Japan, India, South Africa, Norway, Germany, United Arab Emirates and Turkey in addition to the existing five-member panel abandoned.
Enabling military rule as opposed to civilian government in the post Mubarak Egypt.
Bahrain, Yemen and Saudi Arabia – Reservations on political uprisings compared with overwhelming anticipation in Syria fostering rumors on CIA intrusion rather than upholding a uniform policy in the region.
Libya – deliberation and procrastination to recognize citizens represented Transition Council in Benghazi emboldened Libyan dictatorship with the situation evolving into NWO long time aspiration – military invasion of Libya to sustain direct ownership on oil fields.
Osama Bin Laden resurrection to life and the purported killing in the no-evidence necessary entitlement proclaiming Presidential discretion as the rule of law.
Vice President Joe Biden – alliance with White House on Health Care, Foreign Policy and environment issues.
U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton – The U.S State Department prominently engaged as the espionage epicenter and,
Incidentally availing Wikileaks as the tool to create drifts and confusion in foreign government rule per covert arrangement in the extradition charges repeal against the founder Julian Assange.
Orchestrating coup d’état in Honduras, Ecuador and Lebanon, launching NWO preferred leaderships in the regions regarded economically and politically vital for dominance.
Defense Secretary Robert Gates – in the implementation of NWO warfare across the Middle East and Islamic nations.
Attorney General Eric Holder – Diligently administering the White House policy on reprieving Bush-Cheney administration litany of evidence supported charges.
Intervention and influencing judgments in civil matter at the White House behest.
Military Commander Gen. David Petraeus for protracted wars in the absence of reasonable justification.
Unless these entities actions and decisions attributed to pervasive humanitarian crises are investigated in a judicial and Congressional impartial hearing in public view with appropriate findings typical to the application of law against ordinary citizens,
The judiciary and Congress are rendered ineffective for failing to exercise the checks and balances in reinstating republic rule.
Their complacency and to a great extent complicity in the reluctance to restitute democratic values by allowing extraordinary executive power until now is expediting democracy’s decline.
The seemingly democratic representation at the executive and other branches effectively serving as the NWO leaderships for global monopoly through parallel government set up to function as single indomitable force to reckon with.
If the twentieth century witnessed the fall of iron curtain in the former Soviet Union and the Berlin wall in the then Communist East Germany,
It’s time to peacefully and non-violently demolish undemocratic proxy empire New World Order and the Council on foreign relations (CFR), the counterparts in Europe and elsewhere in the twenty first century with worldwide protest to cease clandestine activities and insist the members – the governments and the rest to disavow allegiance to secret society.
Hesitation in honoring the legitimate terms would categorically reveal the facade.
The conglomerate having successfully revived pre-World War II repressive era through violence, oppression, persecution and most relevantly endangering civil rights and political freedom in the perceived democratic but realistically non-democratic governance.
Since the call to dismantle New World Order largely discarded and possibly smirked,
It is incumbent upon the citizens in civil society to rise against double standards delineating the privileged political class with special protection from interrogation or prosecution while the average mainstream population subject to the maximum culpability.
Global revolution is paramount to abolish the paradox system favoring the perpetrators of crimes against humanity and punishing the innocent as ‘collateral damage,’ causing widespread poverty, hunger, disease and,
Economic despair triggering political upheavals heightened by social injustice.
New World Order existence is conclusively harmful to peace and harmony due to the discreet society’s pledge to wage wars and maintain universal discord for individual gains.
The international community cannot afford to remain dormant with the mushroom cloud about to permeate across the sky.
Therefore bringing down the New World Order responsible for global misery is a priority and preliminary step towards democracy revival.
It is incumbent upon every citizen to safeguard democracy with liberty and justice for all.
Please remember the planet survival is dependent upon the inhabitants’ dedication and commitment to steer the respective nations’ future in a positive direction contradictory to the present time – diminishing to the point of no return.
Citizens’ active participation in policy-making is quintessential much to the governments’ dissent.
Considering significant percentage of policy makers as elected representatives trend periodically demonstrated in their misplaced loyalty to special interests, unscrupulous internal and external sources for assorted reasons excepting national and republic interest.
Please act now and preserve your rights – born to be free and not in bondage by deterring the forces against humanitarian and environmental cause.
Silence and inaction are the worst foes to democracy.
Solidarity movement around the world for common good is vital to realize political independence that would eventually deliver economic prosperity, social equality and global peace.
Peace to all!
Thank you.

President Barack Obama declared the alleged killing of Osama Bin Laden during the U.S. raid in Abbottabad, Pakistan a week ago with Presidential speech, statements and CIA director interviews raising more doubts due to incongruences pronouncing the inherent contradictory presentations thus far.
In the absence of evidence prior to and after the alleged shooting of Osama Bin Laden – an established CIA asset ‘died’ December 13, 2001 acknowledged by Pakistan Presidents and United States government as well as central intelligence forces,
Notwithstanding news articles confirming on Dec 26, 2001 that Osama Bin Laden is deceased.
Pakistan Observer reporting the death at the same time.
Prominent Egyptian newspaper Al-Wafd reported Osama Bin Laden’s death and the funeral rites.
Foxnews.com – Wednesday December 26, 2001:
Report – “Bin Laden Already Dead” and
Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf – ‘He died of Kidney failure.’
Israeli Intelligence in 2002 reiterated “Osama Bin Laden dead and all new videos are faked.”
Further, Osama Bin Laden kidney ailment and dialysis treatment were published and broadcast by U.S. New Channel – CBS news (presented in the blog post Featured Video).
Then the article By Anthony Simpson – The Guardian, Thursday 1 November 2001
“Two months before September 11 Osama Bin Laden flew to Dubai for 10 days for treatment at the American hospital, where he was visited by the local CIA agent, according to the French newspaper Le Figaro.”
In 2001 – the French newspaper Le Figaro is reported to have claimed per intelligence sources close to Osama Bin Laden that ‘Osama Bin Laden ordered kidney dialysis machine in 2000.”
Most relevantly – According to The Telegraph,
By Toby Harnden in Washington, 12.01AM GMT 28 Dec, 2001
US casts doubt on Bin Laden’s latest message –
The recording was dismissed by the Bush administration yesterday –
“As sick propaganda possibly designed to mask the fact the al-Qa’eda leader was already dead.”
Osama Bin Laden death in 2001 was obviously well known among the intelligence, army, political and media circle – the conglomerate in control of the world affairs.
Now the question arises about the artful manipulation of facts, truth subversion to prolong foreign occupation and warfare not to mention the resurrection of Osama Bin Laden to life through fake videos and subsequent alleged death in the recently asserted American operation.
Most importantly, the Presidential discretion along with the key cabinet colleagues viz. U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Defense Secretary Robert Gates recommendation defying the request to produce evidence in public matter is a dismissal of democracy.
As for the press and media commentary – ‘Osama Bin Laden Killed in U.S. raid’ is acceptance of the purported action made complex with operation conducted in deliberate blackout eliminating every possible image and statements lacking in credibility is suggestive of the privilege granted to the powerful political establishment regardless,
While such benefit of the doubt not extended to mainstream population in a democratic society.
Ref; The Telepgraph.co.uk Thursday, May 05, 2011
Osama Bin Laden dead: Black out during raid on Bin Laden compound
“The head of the CIA admitted yesterday that there was no live video footage of the raid on Osama Bin Laden’s compound as further doubts emerged about the US version of events.
Leon Panetta director of the CIA revealed that there was a 25 minute blackout during which the live feed from cameras mounted on the helmets of the US Special Forces was cut off.
A photograph released by the White House appeared to show the President and his aides in the situation room watching the action as it unfolded. In fact they had little knowledge of what was happening in the compound.
In the interview with PBS, Mr. Panetta said “Once those teams went into the compound I can tell you that there was a time period of almost 20-25 minutes where they really didn’t know just exactly what was going on. And there were some very tense moments as we were waiting for information.”
Complacency and complicity are the major threats to democracy promoting abuse of power at the helm expected to epitomize transparency rather than refuting reality especially in the purely circumstantial based operation as revealed by the CIA director Leon Panetta resulting in loss of lives.
More details in this context will be presented shortly.
Thank you.

US Raid Operation and the Alleged Burial of Osama Bin Laden
May 3, 2011
By Padmini Arhant
Since the declaration of Osama Bin Laden death, the real issues at stake are yet to be addressed by the White House.
It is extremely important to release the raid operation images revealing the alleged fatality of the terror mastermind Osama Bin Laden claimed to have been witnessed in real time by the United States President and privileged audience i.e. Secretary of State and Defense Secretary along with selective members.
Further, presenting the unedited real time documentary on the raid operation with the terror leader Osama Bin Laden in action and the subsequent alleged death should be a no brainer considering the target’s significance and the worldwide anticipation to view the most wanted terrorist live picture.
Additionally real time visual content on burial of Osama Bin Laden reportedly 6′ 4″ in Height purported to have taken place in a sea rather than the land in violation of ethical and environment protocol also required in order to substantiate the bizarre stated ritual supposedly performed prior to presenting the evidence to the world at large.
Meanwhile assertions on the intelligence diligence despite Pakistan’s complicity to the terror leader residency is yet another debate lacking in credibility due to the CIA operatives deployed in Pakistan under previous and current administration as paramilitary forces and,
The procrastination in tracking down the terror leader’s whereabouts suddenly unfolding in a neighborhood not far from the Capital Islamabad leading to the controversies deserves valid explanation.
Besides United States and NATO presence in Afghanistan and Pakistan over a decade notwithstanding the status as the most sophisticated intelligence as well as the formidable military force on earth –
Inabilities to either locate or apprehend the terror leader reportedly a resident of ABBOTTABAD, Pakistan (1 hour away from Islamabad) for five years is suggestive of serious intelligence failure and the reluctance to act earlier than the chosen moment in time.
Hence transparency in disclosure with the video footage of the entire activity primarily consisting Osama Bin Laden is essential for public scrutiny.
Not only the American citizens but also the international community would benefit from the candid presentation given the profile of the terror leader Osama Bin Laden and the suffering endured by millions across the globe.
Democracy thrives with accountability enforced from the top bottom in a society.
Thank you.

May 2, 2011
By Padmini Arhant
Better late than never that Osama Bin Laden is now declared dead.
The 9/11 victims and thousands around the world have waited patiently for the truth,
Not to mention the U.S and coalition forces’ sacrifices along with millions of Afghan lives lost in the more than a decade old war yet to be brought to conclusion.
There can be no more procrastination in troop withdrawal. The withdrawal scheduled for 2014 obviously requires review and meaningful justification.
Perhaps it is time to bring troops home and divest the exorbitant defense expenditure to address domestic issues such as creating jobs, universal health care through single payer system, infrastructure and green technology.
Iraq war was waged on false premises.
It was vehemently claimed – the then Iraqi President Saddam Hussein was involved in 9/11 attacks in addition to possessing weapons of mass destruction proved otherwise in the yet another warfare seeing no end in sight.
Furthermore the latest revelation on Iraq according to the report from the Associated Press on April 10, 2011 is suggestive of the fact to examine the truth behind every major declaration.
Pentagon’s second thoughts on Iraq withdrawal –
“The U.S. wants to keep perhaps several thousand troops in Iraq, not to engage in combat but to guard against an unraveling of a still-fragile peace.
This was made clear during Defense Secretary Robert Gates’ visit Thursday and Friday in which he and the top U.S. commander in Iraq talked up the prospect of an extended U.S. stay.
How big a military commitment might the U.S. be willing to make beyond 2011?
“It just depends on what the Iraqis want and what we’re able to provide and afford,” Gates said Thursday at a U.S. base in the northern city of Mosul where U.S. soldiers advise and mentor Iraqi forces.
He said the U.S. would consider a range of possibilities, from staying an extra couple of years to remaining in Iraq as permanent partners.”
Despite eliminating the Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein executed on December 30, 2006 the troop deployment perpetually extended with contemplation for permanent base as revealed in the cited report.
Afghanistan is not any different in that scenario considering the possibility of any troop withdrawal scheduled not until 2014.
With Osama Bin Laden existence laid to rest realizing the resurrection to life only possible by the divine power as known to the global society in the return of Christ, a joyous celebration on Easter Sunday,
The protracted war strategy in Afghanistan deserves public disclosure and the means to provide for the prolonged commitment especially in light of opposition towards Medicare funding and several key issues related to improving average Americans’ lives.
Notwithstanding the lingering government shut down threats from budget disagreements based on disproportionate spending alongside generous tax cuts to the wealthy and specific tax evading corporations exporting American jobs overseas,
While their CEO retained as the White House Counsel Chair on Jobs Creativity and Competitiveness in the backdrop of sluggish economy, rising inflation and higher unemployment.
Transparency and accountability in governance would serve in national interest besides enhancing the respective political decisions credibility.
Evidently truth will continue to prevail regardless of the challenges in establishing peace and justice.
Thank you.

Libya – Leader Muammar Gaddafii’s Last Opportunity
May 1, 2011
By Padmini Arhant
Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi reportedly lost his family members – sixth son Saif Al-Arab and three grand children in the latest NATO air strike.
Any loss of life is deeply regrettable and condolences are conveyed to the grieving family on the tragedies experienced by them.
However, the Libyan leader since uprising escalated unprecedented violence against own population leading to the status quo.
The shroud of sorrow on the Gaddafi family today were long endured by Libyan people under the leadership’s tyranny and oppression unleashed over four decades especially in recent response to citizens’ peaceful plea for Gaddafi government’s resignation in order to realize real political freedom.
Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi and loyalists remain defiant and unwilling to honor the national will by stepping down from office despite the personal loss proving the individual priority i.e. to cling on to power regardless of massive bloodshed, chaos and destruction causing immense grief all around.
Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi’s desperate attempts to extend power under false propositions that were previously not fulfilled and unlikely to happen at present or in the future demonstrates the leadership seizing every available situation to self-advantage.
Such governance having failed to win the citizens’ trust and confidence can never prevail in prolonging power against national and international dissent or poignantly deliver the promise.
Therefore it is important for the leader Muammar Gaddafi and his family to accept reality by quitting from power and prepare to permanently leave Libya not forgetting the consequences of earlier refusal resulting in family deaths largely attributed to the leadership’s presumptuous decisions ignoring population plight.
As for the supporters – Gaddafi family and leadership have no gratitude and bound to be let down sharing similar outcome considering their attitude towards own family displayed in the obstinacy to move forward with the political agenda.
The unwavering loyalty to the violent regime rather than the people would accordingly deliver the end justifying the means.
The security personnel and others backing the regime are urged to pay serious attention to the unfolding events not sparing the offenders’ lives revealing the inescapable fact that violence begets violence and eye for an eye would only make the world go blind.
All those behind the embattled leadership crumbling from the helm to the bottom have no option but to lay down their arms and ammunition for the tide is turned against them.
Underestimating the developments would be naïve and rejecting the inevitable defeat is denial that could only expedite the regime’s expulsion.
Hence allowing wisdom to guide the moral engagement through immediate surrender by renouncing power and presence in the country could perhaps alleviate the regime’s burden on crimes against humanity.
Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi and heir apparent notwithstanding the rest of the government have the unique opportunity to reconcile terms with the people in their acknowledgment of the Gaddafi era coming to conclusion.
It is a non-negotiable and unequivocal demand seeking the regime’s rapid exit from the nation with the accumulated wealth in their possession to be withheld for national investment.
The courageous Libyan people sacrifices will not be in vain with every life lost in the political struggle cherished as the beacon light for an independent and prosperous Libya.
Please do not lose hope with freedom on the horizon.
Best Wishes to the resilient Libyan revolution for a glorious victory in the political liberation.
Thank you

Syria – Violence Against Pro-Democracy Movement
April 28, 2011
By Padmini Arhant
Political uprisings throughout Middle East and North Africa reveal the common characteristics in the dictatorial regimes – brutal crackdown, eleventh hour false reform pledge to defuse uprising, characterize protesters as traitors when the profile fits the decadent rulers having held the population hostage for several decades.
Not to mention their subservience and loyalty to external sources with vested interests competing against the determined pro-democracy movement.
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad inherited power from his father the former President Hafez al-Assad prolonging the dynasty rule since February 22, 1971.
Syria an ally of Iran, the adversary of Israel and Lebanon’s influential neighbor is confronted with people’s revolution currently sweeping across the region demanding the end to tyranny and oppression spanning over half a century.
Again the governments failure to recognize and acknowledge the public rejection of constitutional monarchy via dynastic governance, military coup and totalitarianism,
Notwithstanding the emergence to power through deception and exploitation of citizens’ trust revealed in broken promises are the reasons behind the prevalent political crisis causing trepidation among the corrupt and authoritarian regimes flagrantly backed by similar forces against meaningful democracy.
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s violent measures directing armed security personnel and supporters to attack non-violent demonstrators that has claimed many innocent lives is yet another desperate strategy in following Iran, Libya, Yemen, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia…but regrettably not learned from the consequences of such tactics in Egypt and Tunisia.
Anti-government rally in Syria being no different from events in other parts of Middle East is citizens’ revolt against authoritarianism primarily seeking the incumbent governments ouster in a non-negotiable and unequivocal term to facilitate the democratic system onset under republic rule.
The shadow government comprising nefarious representations successfully reins control over democratic and autocratic societies with relentless engagement in debilitating the rise of people power across the globe.
Accordingly the belligerent leaderships responsible for their own citizens’ deaths are divided in their allegiance to factions with synonymous traits and agenda targeting the people and policies favoring national interest.
For instance, Egypt, Jordan, Yemen and Bahrain leaderships protected as strategic allies for military operations while the nations with oil resources are safeguarded as key economic interests.
Therefore the interventions witnessed thus far – the procrastinated actions and deliberate miscalculations costing pro-democratic activists lives compounded with negotiations to extend regime power through heir apparent in Libya is a huge credibility factor undermining the revolutionaries’ victories in the respective nations.
Syria on the flip side falls in the same category due to the leadership alliance with Iran perceived to be the dominant player and the western allies’ regional foe despite the irrefutable commonalities between them – viz. submission to foreign powers and domestic repression.
Hence Iran’s guidance to Syria and the shadow government supported regimes resisting political transformation in the region is presumptuous for the revolutions commitment to prevail in the republic rule establishment can no longer be derailed through bloodshed and unscrupulous means.
The casualties suffered in the capital Damascus, central cities of Hama and Homs, coastal areas of Latakia and Banias, the northern cities of Raqqa and Idlib with the worst massacre in the southern province – Daraa confirm the governments’ irrational and inhumane approach to retain authority.
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad renouncing power by stepping down from office immediately along with the loyalists departure to avoid further civilian deaths would prove the leadership’s genuine regard for Syria’s sovereignty.
Any leadership authorizing the use of live ammunitions against the population in the twenty first century is lost in the medieval times and,
Accepting the reality of violent era coming to conclusion with their dismissal from power by the people would perhaps lessen the burden on them in the inevitable judgment for crimes against humanity.
The brave patriots in Syria are commended for their steel resolve and perseverance to achieve political independence. The martyrs’ sacrifices will not be in vain with republic success on the horizon.
Good Luck! To the people of Syria for a glorious triumph in political liberation leading to social equality and economic prosperity.

Yemen – GCC Deal and President Ali Abdullah Saleh Resignation
April 26, 2011
By Padmini Arhant
After months of street protests predominantly by the youth population and now with the rest of the nation behind the anti-government rally,
The GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council) brokered deal offers President Ali Abdullah Saleh’s resignation in 30 days and impunity from prosecution for any crimes.
It is a standard proposal from the embattled leaderships seen thus far in the Middle East and North African political uprisings.
Accordingly the demonstrators have strong doubts about the Yemeni President’s word on leaving office considering the broken promises earlier that has led to the regime extension over thirty-three years.
Furthermore President Ali Abdullah Saleh possible transfer of power to the Vice President Maj. Gen. Abd al-Rab Mansur al-Hadi (appointed by the President on October 3, 1994 – again over sixteen years in office),
Amid expressing inhibitions on several scenarios such as – potential military coup, insisting on transformation through ballot boxes and referendums – strategy that does not fit in with more than three decades of autocratic power and last but not the least,
Al Qaeda infiltration and Islamists from the Islah Party seizing power in the country on the brink of collapse.
First and foremost the incumbent President Saleh’s forecasts is actuality emanating from political oppression, economic depression and social repression under the present government.
Had the country been democratic with republic rule representing the entire nation, Al Qaeda, militarism and fundamentalism would have no place for the people would ensure that internal and external forces not seize their freedom, opportunities and equal status from them.
Therefore it is important for President Saleh to recognize the failures of his government since the existing problems in every frontier is aptly attributed to the decades old system centered on the political leadership and fewer party loyalists’ self-interest implemented in the agenda depleting national resources.
President Ali Abdullah Saleh can no longer convince the beleaguered nation desperately deserving a sea change in the political, economic and social environment benefitting all rather than the powerful and the affluent groups in the society.
Younger generation have dreams and aspirations to build their nation to conform to the twenty first century in every aspect. The feat could not be accomplished with political independence denial.
President Saleh in the latest speech advised the youth to form a political party and challenge the ruling government in the election.
Although the belated suggestion to set up political party is motivating, the timing implies the political maneuver to let the quest for democracy dissipate with the expectation for situation reversal i.e. political governance under President Saleh.
Protesters anguish and mistrust against the GCC mediated offer is justified due to the key elements in the agreement viz. President Saleh departure from office delayed by 30 days and immunity granted to all those involved in violence against unarmed civilians reportedly claimed 130 lives until date.
People’s decision is clear in this regard seeking President Ali Abdullah Saleh to step down immediately and not in 30 days. The terms are non-negotiable and the wealth accumulated during the entire period to be retained for national investment and not personal acquisition.
The military in Yemen is urged to safeguard boundaries and territories in addition to citizens’ lives as opposed to aiming for political power,
Notwithstanding extending support to President Saleh government or any partisan groups threatening national security.
The fundamentalism cannot survive in the political evolution began through educated youth movement having attracted remaining citizens from across the country with the activists in southern city Taiz and capital Sana focused on modern society establishment in the post political freedom.
President Ali Abdullah Saleh honoring the republic will by renouncing power in entirety would be a dignified exit as the inevitable developments could neither be stalled nor stopped across the region and elsewhere.
No leadership could assert authority through use of force and insist on continuing in power despite the bloodshed and economic severity affecting the nation.
The government resistance to political dissent only exacerbates the crisis facilitating stalemate serving none especially the defiant authorities in power for history is testimony in the past and recent times that velvet, jasmine and lotus revolutions have prevailed in ending decadent rule setting a precedence in synonymous cause.
Yemeni citizens are commended for the courage and patience in their effort to political liberation. The determination to succeed is evident in their relentless pursuit for democracy. Staying on course to achieve the goal is quintessential in the political struggle.
Every individual pledged to restoring sovereignty is a formidable opponent to the authorities and the martyrs’ sacrifice will not be in vain.
President Ali Abdullah Saleh term in office is effectively over and clinging on to position against people consent is anything but democratic.
Acknowledgment of reality is the peaceful and viable solution to the ongoing political standoff between the deposed leadership and the people.
Best Wishes to the people in Yemen for a resounding victory in political emancipation leading to social progress and economic prosperity.
Thank you.

With the contemporary world in shambles, there is greater need for understanding and solidarity to promote peace, freedom and progress especially in the oppressed regions deprived of basic human rights.
The deficiency in empathy towards human suffering is attributed to preoccupation and prioritization of personal interests compounded with the survival of the fittest instinct prevalent in the present environment.
Compassion and selfless dedication to humanitarian cause was the moral essence of Jesus Christ message exemplified in action.
Lord Jesus perseverance in exercising God’s will to restore hope and bright future is a testament to mankind upon adherence to virtuous life.
