Nation is Indispensable

Not the Transition Power

The nation regardless of political system is indispensable and not transitioning power is a forgotten fact among power quest politics.

The fad in contemporary politics citing their head as critical and that the country would collapse without them is proven otherwise by Iran.

Despite Israel’s elimination of top leaders and Chief in Iran’s political, intelligence and military ambit, Iran defiantly defending national sovereignty is in a way a legacy from the martyred leaderships chartered course and roadmap for the survivors in the present generation to be passed on to their progeny.

Contrary to self-adulation among those political heads especially in a democracy consumed in presumptuous affirmation of them being irreplaceable prompting undemocratic means to prolong power and authority in living and upon demise is a conundrum for the people and nation they represent in vain.

No leadership as political head is the be all and end all of any nation.

Unfortunately, the intense power mongering misguide political minds with such impression of them being the savior of the nation and the people.

The misconception that neither nation nor people would function in the aftermath of the power centric exit is not the case with any and all nations.

Amidst reality, the belief amongst power mongers in contradiction to their destructive and detrimental track record screaming at them and the nation as deterrents to peace, progress and prosperity is a dilemma for the people and the world.

India and Israel as the so-called democracies exemplify in this regard. Their current leaders in living and upon death continue to claim their nation’s survival is directly linked with them as the head of the country.

Israel continuing to hide the deceased PM Benjamin Netanyahu in Iran’s missile strike is a significant portrayal of Israel lacking in ability to exist with acknowledgment of the irrefutable situation on the Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu’s casualty.

Similarly, in India – the supposedly largest democracy in the world hopelessly tout the most controversial and self-invested head Narendra Modi in the third term of political tenure against constitutional norm.

Somehow among 1.5 billion Indian population, the country is made to feel bereft of appropriate chief to head the nation and resigned to status quo as a fate.

Is it the majority in Israel and India’s choice to declare themselves incompetent and ineligible to appoint or replace their nation’s chief proven a liability and disaster for them and the neighbors in the respective regions?

Or,

Is it presided by the external diktat and discretion for selective few interests?

Whatever it might be, the world continues with or without them. None are paramount.

In fact, it is much better in the absence of counterproductive contributors like them enabling the rest living to learn a lesson not to tread on their path of self-centered power impulsively dragging their nation and others in kamikaze operations like interventional warfare against neighbors near and far and failing that drowning the nation too often in serious crises.

At the end of the day, no political figure, power, party and military as well as nuclear might is above and greater than a nation and its republic. The truth is without neither the aforesaid is irrelevant.

Regrettably, the bad ones never leave and persist on being the obstacle preventing the nation from leaving the blunders behind.

The world is part of the cosmic determined time and space orbit that revolves around the Sun and not the other way around.
