Power – Definition and Interpretation

Power – Definition and Interpretation

Padmini Arhant

 

I would like to discuss on the contemporary events with focus on power. The verbal presentation will follow shortly. 

Power is enticing prompting actions not favorable to many citizens depriving them the individual rights and freedom to live a normal life.

When power is concentrated among few members reining control over the destiny of more than seven billion lives, there are no considerations for people and issues affected by their decisions.

The policy premised on vested interests slight ordinary citizens plight even though they have power and wealth because of these citizens voting them to office, employees in work force and average consumers enabling business success and profitability. In general, the lives of the powerful and influential is dependent on the hard work of the people who are rarely acknowledged as the back bone of the industry and society at large.

Then there are those asserting as Royals whose existence and extravagant lifestyle over generations is paid for and supported by none other than ordinary people labor and service.

How does one interpret power?

In a democracy, power is expected to be in public domain i.e. government of the people, by the people and for the people. When representation in government is shifted from constituents to campaign donors, lobbyists and external demands, the system is subjugated to political ambitions and vested interests. The pledge of allegiance to campaign financiers and ideologues remaining the priority, the electorate needs often neglected or discounted to benefit the bidders in election campaign and special interests.

As for the disenfranchised, less fortunate and isolated demography there is no hope for they are expected to defend themselves in the polarized world with money purchasing power and fame.

Power is worthless and weak when used for intimidation, harassment and elimination of lives being the norm with no courage to accept responsibility. Those fearing the loss of own life and the powerful in particular traveling in bullet proof motorcade flanked with security personnel uninhibited in authorizing the killing of innocent and unarmed citizens in domestic and foreign shores is the irony.

The preference to harm anyone they do not agree with or find them inconvenient is cowardly and adapting the misuse of power reveals the state of mind and insecurity. At such time, the enemy within overwhelm them prohibiting the sense in identifying self as the primary problem.

United States House of Congress passing the legislation yesterday i.e. December 6th, 2017 on gun laws relaxing gun regulations and granting those with permits to freely carry concealed weapons as well as legally travel with firearms to other states obliging gun lobbyist National Rifle Association again clarifies the care and concern or the lack thereof for security of the population they are supposed to protect in public office.

The bill passed with majority Republican and six democrats votes are reckless to say the least given the statistics in gun violence and now United States gun laws promoting mass murder in main street. The voluntary legislation on gun laws is congressional authorization to carry assault weapons threatening the lives of people falling prey to shooting rampage evidenced in American gun violence up until now.

The Congressional measure loosening gun restrictions indicative of arming citizens supposedly to fend for themselves in the otherwise alarming gun ownership.

Does this mean the process is intended to displace law enforcement personnel i.e. the police meant to safeguard citizenry?

Not to mention risking the lives of not only unarmed civilians but also police in serious crime scenes. Those who voted for this bill are expecting every individual to be armed not realizing the effects translated into shooting themselves on their foot with prevalent gun incidents not sparing congress members as well.

When folly reigns human character, wisdom is unheeded much to self-detriment.

This is an example of power exercised to exacerbate issues endangering public safety and legislators seeking prospects to extend term in office.

Whenever the public office is transformed into a platform to exert authority ignoring consequences, the office bearer has no credibility and not suitable to represent the state and the nation anymore.

The latest move announcing Jerusalem as Israel’s capital is abuse of office of the Presidency with little or no regard for other citizens’ rights and blatant violation of ethics denying indigenous Palestinians due legitimacy and sovereign status they are entitled to in the relentless land grab by occupiers.

Anything obtained and achieved through aggression and underhanded tactics are bound to be subject to endless turmoil and never provide satisfaction to those involved due to illegitimate claim leaving them bereft of everything in possession. In the constant motion to gain others share of property and rights, the deterioration in human value among them inevitably defines the ill-fate.

As I have stated earlier, greed, hubris and prejudice consume human soul and anyone affected by these qualities unable to control excess desire and hatred eventually succumb to adverse outcome.

Life is an opportunity to learn and evolve into worthy beings not wither like autumn leaves covered in dust and swept away by the wind.

Finally, I reiterate  the previous statement on the unilateral recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital is null and void. Jerusalem is a holy city for inhabitants of other faiths as well and accordingly their consensus on the sensitive matter is relevant. The established fact on East Jerusalem al-Quds as Palestinian capital remains valid. That being said, the arbitrary declaration of entire Jerusalem as Israel’s domain is irresponsible and illegal.

Power is powerful in spreading peace not violence, saving lives not destruction and exemplifying fairness and equality not bias and discrimination. 

Thank you.

Terror and Terrorism – Origin and Purpose

March 25, 2016

By Padmini Arhant

Terror is the invention to spread fear and violence for greed and ideology driven goals substituting conventional warfare in the twenty first century.

The traditional wars engaged ground troops and air as well as sea operation i.e. the national and international force. Accordingly, the decision entailed congressional or parliamentary approval which means citizens consent.

Although the trend on wars in the past and present century ignored public opinion and continued with policy on invasion and occupation of foreign land,

The citizens’ protest to illegal wars on false pretexts became prominent in the wake of Iraq war in 2003 amid ongoing war in Afghanistan since 2001 at taxpayers’ expense with no end in sight until now.

Project for New American Century(PNAC) conceptualized and implemented in United States experiencing the initial blow on September 11, 2001.

The doctrine espouses launching terror comparable to nuclear attack on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan in the twentieth century to proceed with lofty aspirations in destabilizing nations that are regarded fair game in the quest for economic and strategic dominance.

Having pursued the path of terrorism against United States on fateful day September 11, 2001 with massive complicity within and outside the nation despite the country’s declared super power status on account of nuclear arsenal and military might,

The masterminds, architects, protagonists and catalysts behind PNAC continue on terror track terrorizing the world for failed strategy.

Relevantly, ISIS and ISIL…emergence is linked to al Qaeda in turn created by then National Security Advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski to counter cold war adversary the former Soviet Union.

Later, al Qaeda had become the useful resource demonstrated on September 11, 2001 and made PNAC mission admissible.

Not only the war was waged against United States on 9/11/2001 in order to accelerate PNAC specified agenda, the nations listed in the dossier were systematically attacked and destabilized for intended objective.

Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and Sudan have been forced into eternal turmoil along with Syria besides Yemen in the North African region.

Syria was targeted in 2011 to topple the government headed by President Bashar al Assad deploying diverse means especially terrorism channeled via Libya and al Qaeda imported from Afghanistan and North Africa.

United States and Britain with western ally EU, Israel and Middle Eastern coalition such as Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Qatar, Jordan, Kuwait and UAE has sponsored, funded, armed and trained al Qaeda terror operatives developed under names like al Nusra Front, Takfiri, ISIL, ISIS and Daesh in Syria, Iraq and Libya.

The so called war on terror is essentially war against Syrian people for the sole reason of regime change. United States, Britain, France, Israel and EU with Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Qatar active promotion of terrorism is witnessed in blowback events in Paris, Brussels and cities in Turkey.

Western and Middle Eastern alliance sowing the seeds of terror and nurturing with continuous supply of ammunitions notwithstanding chemical weapons used against Syrian army personnel as well as civilians is the inherent problem that has grown into menace for Europe and Turkey in particular.

EU resolution in 2012 lifting arms embargo that was effective on terror networks in Syria rather than extending ban on weapons delivery to terror groups has led to emboldened terror unleashed in European capitals today.

Furthermore, the western egregious stance on Syria aiding and abetting terror through their partners in the Middle East proliferated terrorism.

Russia’s participation in the terror infested war in Syria aimed at Daesh, Takfiris, ISIL and ISIS ignited tensions between United States and Russia on the significance.

However, Russia having withdrawn air assaults with the exception of maintaining Naval base on Syrian turf in Tartus and protecting Russian interests following fragile ceasefire are recent developments in the war torn nation.

Syria has been dragged into quagmire as part of PNAC proposition. In western domain the term civil war for the international war using terrorism against Syria is rather misleading and disingenuous ignoring PNAC proponents ulterior motive.

The conventions to end Syrian conflict from onset until today are unsuccessful predominantly due to terror sponsors and benefactors’ reluctance to relent to peaceful outcome.

As a result, the innocent children, women and men in Syria are the victims of senseless and merciless bloodshed with nearly 500,000 dead and two million and more refugees in their homeland and offshore enduring abuse and serious human rights violations by those responsible for Syrian catastrophe.

Europe vehemently opposed to Syrian refugee influx regardless of EU and major western nations viz. Britain, France and Germany as chief EU representative contribution towards terror manifestation in Syria boosting terror grid in the five years old Syrian crisis.

Any terror backlash in Europe and Turkey is the consequence of western powers and allies deployment and recruitment of terror factions in Syria with contagion effect on Iraq and Lebanon.

The misinterpretation of the situation in Syria, Iraq and Libya to suit western and allies position is betrayal of trust threatening national and global security.

PNAC is flawed and a disaster for humanity beginning with United States citizens on 9/11 and the rest of the world.  The devious perseverance annihilated scores of lives and made existence for millions impossible transforming nations into war zones preventing the dawn of peace.

Abandoning the ill fated PNAC ambitions and global supremacy would not only be wise but also imperative to avert burgeoning upheaval on the horizon.

In a just world, PNAC exponents and agents would be held accountable for heinous crimes against humanity and those in position of authority committing treason not to mention the breach of constitutional oath to protect the country and people they were appointed to serve during the term in office.

Project for New American Century is the primary source for terror infiltrated actions and stratagem.

Once again PNAC entities are listed for identification and indictment that would exemplify United States as the land of justice.

I offer my condolence to families grieving over the loss of loved ones in PNAC generated terror.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

Colonialism, Nazism and Neo Nazi Evolution

February 28, 2016

By Padmini Arhant

Nazism in twentieth century linked to world war II with the rise of Germany for global conquest.

Nazism related holocaust is widely propagated topic until today.  Holocaust formed the basis for sources to seek solution leading to perennial conflict in the Middle East – Israel and Palestinian crisis.

In an effort to compensate holocaust victims, the measure established a state within a state farther away from geographic location, Germany – the holocaust origin leaving the local population in Palestine stateless in their homeland.

Meanwhile the atrocities against natives and genocide worldwide in colonial era extended at present apparently not significant to end status quo. The reference in particular is Palestine and alike.

Colonialism emerged from presumptuous and self-proclaimed kingdoms asserting expansionism colonized and annexed territories at will with little or no respect for sovereignty and integrity of nations near and far.

The trend continued in contemporary period with similar traits and defined western democracy.

Nazism emanating from workers’ party representation surely was devious subverting socialism concept demanding equitable income distribution in society. 

Nazism flourished in the past century with colonialists’ direct engagement fraternizing relations for vested interests.

Colonial members and oligarchy decisive role as Nazi cohorts somehow not factored in the selective vilification of those frequently cited as Nazi renegade in previous century.

Nazism and colonialism as two sides of the coin engender prejudice and preference to pedigree with Aryan race superimposed on developments in the relevant time not to mention prevalent practice in this regard.

Colonialists courting Nazis deemed tenable in contrast to patriot’s defiance to colonialism committing massacre and gross human rights violations is subject to scrutiny.

Indian freedom fighter Subash Chandra Bose then forming Indian National Army and alleged alliance with Japan during world war II is denounced by colonial representatives at every opportunity.

Juxtaposed rapid transformation post world war II with western powers – United States, UK, France and Israel’s ties strengthened not severed between them and Germany as well as Japan even though Germany was Nazi represented and Japan under Emperor Hirohito adapted authoritarianism.

Japan is now United States ally and second largest creditor while Germany remains NATO partner in hegemony goals and promoted to UNSC P5+1 exclusive club.

Notwithstanding western media and press coverage on Japan’s Emperor Hirohito descendants in modern times no less than adulation parallel to Britain’s Royalty despite events described during Nazism and totalitarianism emulating colonialism reminiscent of dark history.

Indian political class secrecy subscribing to classified information on independence movement leader Subash Chandra Bose existence and demise tantamount complicity to imperialists stance on this issue.

Colonialism and Nazism essentially serve agenda aimed at global dominance.  Neo Nazism targets ethnic diversity and minority groups vulnerable to political gains predisposed in altering demography.

The twenty first century policy is renewed colonialism spreading incessant violence and discrimination through manufactured and fostered terrorism instrumental in destabilizing nations for supremacy.

The counterproductive actions exemplified in terror sponsoring and strategy dedicated to eliminating civilizations is the dichotomy for those presiding over delineation of respective participation in Nazi age.

Colonialism, feudalism, Nazism, neo-Nazism and corporatism share common values – empowerment at the disadvantaged and disenfranchised expense.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

World – Irony and Idiocy (Social Paradigms and Security)

February 22, 2016

By Padmini Arhant

The highlights are social paradigms and security.

Holocaust – The reference is to discriminatory killings of Jewish population in the twentieth century. However, the colonial era genocide in Africa, Asia, Middle East and Latin America not necessarily regarded in the category confirming selective connotation.

Relevantly Israeli authorities’ occupation of Palestine and persecution of Palestinians resulting in destruction of lives and livelihoods for nearly seven decades apparently do not fit the definition either.

Colonialism in the twenty first century targeting race, religion, sectarian, caste and community divide for global dominance promoted as acceptable norm.

Despite propagation on holocaust, Nazism favored in the dismissal of Nazi cohorts’ decisive role as permissible involvement. The trend continued in contemporary Israeli Palestine and Ukraine crisis.

UNSC evolved into P5+1 with the addition of Germany in the absence of Israel’s objection clarifies congruence.

Germany exerting authority as influential power against EU and euro members demonstrated in Greece economic and political affairs.

Furthermore, Germany’s active participation as NATO ally in western interventions in foreign land and unilateral decisions on ground troop incursion in Tunisia under the pretext of training Tunisian soldiers against western sponsored al Qaeda offshoots Daesh, al Nusra Front and other groups summarize hegemonic goals.

Obviously holocaust in these terms is the event of the past with outreach to sources behind much publicized experience prioritized for vested interests.

Elsewhere social unrest is the smoke screen to prevent political establishment policies and activities from scrutiny. The subversion of real concerns in society as anti-government initiatives describes the tendency towards police statehood. 

Security – Citizens held hostage under the guise of national and global security.  The shift from conventional warfare to manufacturing and proliferating terror for hegemony aspirations facilitate gross misuse of power in direct violation of civil rights and basic freedom.

Security is convenient tool for terror organizers in massive surveillance, communication access and intrusive measures with little or no respect for constitution guaranteed individual privacy and citizens act.

Western backed terror outfits are funded, armed and deployed in Syria, Iraq, Libya and North Africa directly and through lackeys in the Middle East – Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Turkey, Jordan and alike in the so-called war on terror.

Terrorism is deplored amid fueling terror with ammunitions and artillery supply to factions for supremacy.

Hosting false flag shooting and terror incidents with 9/11 setting precedence in the United States along with classifying information on various crimes is the strategy to prolong fear, hostility and suppression of liberty. 

Safety is threatened by none other than forces enabling terror by providing resources to terror networks engaged in worldwide operation.

In other settings security is suitable to crackdown public dissent on government performance and burgeoning issues affecting lives in society.

Security is the secret weapon to evade accountability with zero tolerance to peaceful assembly and general dissatisfaction.

The irony in both social paradigm and security is actions paradoxical to disposition verifying duplicity without acknowledgment.

Electing governments pledged allegiance to anti-republic status compromise sovereignty not to mention idiocy in such complicity.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

Face the Truth – Terrorism and State Sponsorship

November 14, 2015

Padmini Arhant

Padmini Arhant

By Padmini Arhant

France – Terror Attacks in Paris

The latest terror attacks in Paris from Daesh Takfiri elements deserves attention in ascertaining facts and examining reality.

The cause and effects apply to any situation. Terrorism contemporarily deployed as means to exert authoritarianism, induce fear and maintain mayhem.

Terrorism experienced worldwide is state authorized and approved activity.

Accordingly, I raise the following questions with explanations for clarity.

  1. Who created al Qaeda?

Al Qaeda did not emerge from nowhere. The leaders of al Qaeda previously Osama Bin Laden and presently Ayman al Zawahiri as western intelligence agencies assets protected with immunity.

  1. How did Syrian Conflict arise?

Western intelligence combined with PNAC (Project for New American Century) strategists and proponents as the masterminds behind September 11, 2001 attacks in the United States chartered the course well ahead that included Syria for destabilization.

United States, Britain, France, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Qatar, Jordan, UAE and Kuwait spearheaded the warfare by recruiting al Qaeda that evolved into al Nusra Front, ISIL, ISIS, Salafi and Daesh Takfiri networks in Syria and later in Iraq.

European Union (EU) fueled terror by lifting ban on arms and ammunitions distribution to terror groups in Syria rather than extending embargo.

The terror operatives up until now are funded, armed and trained by western nations and their allies in the Middle East with complicity from other partners in Eastern Europe and North Africa.

  1. Is it possible for terrorism to exist in the Nuclear age without state sponsorship?

The terror recruits from different parts of the world essentially hired to serve hegemonic goals leaving hundreds and thousands of innocent people dead, millions as refugees in addition to destroying civilizations despite fait accompli.

  1. Would any peaceful nation have normal relations with governments aiding and abetting terror? viz. United States, Britain, France, Germany along with EU ties with Israel, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Qatar, UAE, Kuwait and Jordan. Likewise, Iran with Turkey.

Hegemony is multifaceted aiming for regional and global dominance.

There is little or no concern for catastrophe inflicted on population in war zones with economic interests prioritized over life.

  1. Could any terror network function upon terminating weapons delivery or accessibility to them?

The terror organizations cannot last a day when arms supply to them is prevented across the spectrum.

  1. Who are the beneficiaries i.e. profiteers of violence?

The stakeholders thriving on taxpayers funded salaries, benefits and privileges as well as the so-called royals supported by ordinary citizens’ charity for generations having major investments in defense industry representing the military industrial complex would not have it any other way.

  1. Has bombing nations resolved or exacerbated crises?

The desire for military interventions through air raids notwithstanding troops on ground currently substituted with terror outfits representing different states clarify political status quo and institutionalized crime.

  1. Are institutions and authorities promoting perpetual chaos and bloodshed ever held accountable?

None thus far confirming the state of affairs as the license to kill at political will.

  1. Is there quid pro quo between states, military, intelligence agencies and terror networks in the widespread activity?

Yes. Otherwise it is impossible for terrorism to persist in the militarily superior and nuclear armed era.

  1. Finally, in the well known dragnet global surveillance, how are the terrorists able to commit massacres in world capitals at frequent intervals and the states continue business as usual?

Again, such events are only possible as false flag operations and criminal syndicate involvement.

Ending state sponsored terrorism and dismantling criminal enterprise with diverse collusion is the ultimate resolution.  Anything beyond control would succumb to repeat folly and unsustainable condition.

Never too late to quit counterproductive actions and decisions with blowback on the origin.

I express my condolence to grieving families in the Paris terror incident and wish speedy recovery of those injured in senseless violence.

Thank you.

Syria – Conflated Hegemony Conflict

October 1, 2015

Padmini Arhant

Padmini Arhant

By Padmini Arhant

Syrian conflict has many dimensions with hegemony premeditated scheme to destabilize Syria. The plan implemented in 2011 under the guise of Arab Spring.

The war premised on achieving hegemony goals i.e. toppling governments regarded adversary in the Middle East and elsewhere.  Iraq, Libya, Thailand and Ukraine are examples preceded by nations in Latin America, Asia and Africa throughout twentieth and twenty first century.

United States, Britain, Israel and France along with allies in the Middle East – Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Jordan, Kuwait and UAE involvement since onset devised different strategies to invade Syria.

The principal approach was to circumvent congressional or parliament approval knowing well that would be confronted with public dissent following the deception on Iraq war.

Additionally, disillusionment on 9/11 as insiders collusion with United States allies to accelerate Project for New American Century (PNAC) substantiated in PNAC listing Afghanistan as the initial target among several nations viz. Iraq and Syria.

Hence any direct military interventions would have prevalent hegemony control disguised as democracy prominent.

Citizens protest to hegemony intrusions in foreign land thwarted United States and Britain military actions on Syria.

United States, Britain, Israel, France together with Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Qatar and Jordan sponsored al Qaeda.  The terror network was relocated from Afghanistan to Syria having organized Libya as weapons warehouse to channel arms delivery.

Western nations and coalition in the Middle East declined peace initiatives with EU lifting arms embargo rather than extending ban on ammunitions supply to terrorists in Syria. 

EU decision repercussions experienced now in the refugee influx on EU shores having been responsible for fueling fire.

The western and Middle East allies backed al Qaeda evolved into al Nusra Front in return becoming ISIL, ISIS and now Daesh Takfiri not surprisingly assigned yet another name in the near future.

Western and Middle East armed, trained and funded terror factions were not limited to wreaking terror in Syria. 

They also became cannibals besides committing horrendous crimes like use of chemical weapons, rape, abductions, forcing children to become terror recruits in the four and half years old brutal terrorism unleashed in Syria.

United States, Britain, Israel and France as the origin of weapons cache to terrorists directed Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Jordan to provide comprehensive support to terror camps to decimate Syria.

The western powers and coalition sabotaged Geneva peace accord on more than two occasions to end bloodshed in Syria posing illegitimate demands on the population for Syrian government to step down despite Syrian electorate overwhelming mandate electing the incumbent power in the internationally monitored and appraised Presidential as well as national election.

United States, Israel and Turkey launched air raids in Syria with U.S. and Israel air attacks laden with nuclear components repeating combat operations similar to Iraq and Gaza respectively.

United States backed terrorists were behind chemical weapons massacre in incidents verified and confirmed in the U.N. investigation.

In a bizarre twist, instead of disarming terrorists in possession of biological and chemical weapons, Russia and United States subjected the victim Syria to stockpiles disposal under UN agency purview.

Meanwhile, Israel the major weapons of mass destruction (WMD) stockholder having used against Gazans in 2008-2009 shelling and supplied terrorists in Syria never probed or expected to comply with so-called international law.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu traveled to Moscow to express personal gratitude to Russian President Vladimir Putin on Syrian disarmament.

U.S., Britain, Israel, France and alliance – Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar notwithstanding Lebanon drawn into quagmire.  The terror infiltration in Syria until today with spill over effects in Iraq has left nearly 250,000 dead and millions as refugees in Syria alone.

Turkey citizens have also been hit with terrorism due to Turkish authorities overt engagement in aiding and abetting terror against Syria and Iraq. 

Turkish Premier Recep Tayyip Erdogan close relationship with Iran irrespective of Turkish administration role in proliferating terror explains political and economic interests prioritized over humanitarian issues and regional security.

Not to miss the opportunity amid chaos Germany occupies Turkey with Patriot missile installation and western defense contingency in Turkey stated as necessary for missile management.

Similarly, hegemony trump card Russia occupation of Syria in the Mediterranean coast Tartous with the Russian naval base and the latest airstrikes claimed as wiping Daesh Takfiri on western counterpart behalf is exploiting Syrian political trust in advancing hegemony agenda.

Russia having recently annexed Crimea from eastern Ukraine predominantly to maintain Russian strategic advantage in Black Sea and overture to Caribbean nation Cuba with debt forgiveness in exchange for Russian military base corroborate hegemony multifaceted expansionism in the One World government and New World Order.

The former Soviet Union presence in Afghanistan essentially revived in the current extension of United states and NATO military permanence.

Russiathe key member representing hegemony with veto privilege at unipolar UNSC exemplifying military options in Syria perhaps exhausting defense inventory to replenish reserves other than promoting military industrial complex stock value.

The terror manifestation via hegemony terror recruitments  that began to debilitate Libya, Yemen and other parts of North Africa facilitating mayhem in the Middle East is a convenient situation to justify aggressive maneuver.

Hegemony waged Syrian and Iraq war creating, manufacturing and fostering terror clarifies exalted organized crime against humanity.  States bankrolled terrorism asserted as political leaderships license to kill innocent children, women and men anywhere.

Not to mention hegemony colonization through pervasive terrorism substituting conventional warfare.

Hegemony apocalyptic ambitions contribute to alarming rise in death toll and humanitarian disaster in Syria, Iraq, Libya, Ukraine and wherever hegemony footprints are detectible i.e. almost worldwide.

The terror networks survival is dependent on financing, artillery procurement and logistics made available by none other than hegemony.

Upon terminating terror groups lifeline, the activities would substantially diminish without the need for exhibiting aerial military might.

Hegemony duplicity in classifying militancy into moderates and extremists to suit policy fall short on facts deepening fallacy.

The terror operatives are instructed and led by hegemony authorized organizations and affiliation.

The real commitment to expunge terrorism would commence with the source and catalysts held accountable for heinous crimes and atrocities against unarmed civilians in Syria, Iraq, Libya and elsewhere.

No terror outfit could possibly exist without hegemony and proxy governments complicity in the nuclear age and superior information technology era.

Regardless, conclusion of protracted warfare in Syria, Iraq and Libya with the exclusion of bombs, missiles and air assaults that invariably produce massive destruction of infrastructure and civilian sites is prudent.

The global sanctions on weapons transportation or transfer to terror elements combined with terror shelters demolition and freezing terror benefactors undertakings is the preliminary step towards stifling terrorism.

Addressing the root of all evil fomenting terrorism would cease terror existence.

Hegemony and terror domains exit in entirety is the saving grace marking turbulence and tribulations expiry.

Syria, Iraq and Libya or for that matter any other nation on earth could no longer be subjugated under false pretexts to prolong dying supremacy and parasitic tradition.

The counterproductive measure on regional and global dominance best abandoned with resources divested in improving lives in the domestic front and international cooperation on universal economic development would guarantee global peace and progress.

Wishing peace and stability in every aspect to citizens in Syria, Iraq and Libya.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

India – Hegemony Run Political Establishment

September 20, 2015

By Padmini Arhant

In the previous segment, snapshot on hegemony backed regimes were presented to review reality.

Although the earlier topic only covered few among several worldwide, the facts confirm status quo.

Similarly, India apparently independent nation regardless of dominion republic declaration clarifying non-termination of foreign rule prevalent in proxy governance.

Hegemony strategy premised on control over entire political establishment bid on all factions for win win situation in the so-called election with foreign and domestic illegal funding serving political office bearers, campaign donors and incognito rulers’ interests through beguiled electorate vote.

Indian elections attract donations from myriad sources creating prime time to liquidate black money not barring counterfeit notes printing to bribe voters besides overseas funders viz. Ford foundation, Saudi Arabia and alike involvement up until now.

The political system with prominent political parties at the national and regional level forging alliances alternate positions as ruling and opposition while maintaining agenda to protect each other from accountability on corruption and criminality.

Tax revenues become personal wealth and used to gain political mileage.

For better understanding – the two major political parties Congress and BJP cited in the example.

In hegemony political screen play, direction and production – the common scheme is developing poster-figure (poster-boy) to camouflage duplicity.

With Congress Party – hegemony choice to head Indian government was former World Bank member and economist Dr. Manmohan Singh promoted as Mr. Honest and Mr. Clean later turned out to be otherwise in Coalgate scam and remaining oblivious in 2G spectrum scandal.

Finance, Defense and Foreign Affairs appointments are hegemony authorized and hence World Bank ex-officials viz. current President Pranab Mukherjee, then finance minister P. Chidambaram in key posts were least surprising due to allegiance to external authority.

Congress Party British Raj representative A.O. Hume founded Congress originated in pre-independence India retained dynasty until today.

The Congress Party led United Progressive Alliance (UPA) term I and II (2004 – 2014) was progressive on explosive corruption scandals from top to bottom i.e. the High Command to lowest order enabling hegemony operated foreign banks and tax havens flourish at Indian population expense.

Organized crime syndicate funneled financial institutions under Congress Party chief Sonia Gandhi and UPA finance minister P. Chidambaram not to mention BJP complicity considering inaction as chief opposition sums up political collusion. 

Cash for votes not only on campaign trail but also extended in Parliament with BJP theatrical performance in an effort to absolve responsibility is a serious blow to democracy.

Congress survival rocked not from BJP or any other political group strength.  In fact, the self-inflicted damages with massive corruption unfolding despite political parties and hegemony owned media cover up, the fox could no longer hide in sheep’s clothing scenario emerged on Congress and allies’ corruption deals paving the way for hegemony alternative – BJP and coalition.

BJP – Bharatiya Janata Party with British Raj fostered RSS also dating back to colonial era like Congress is hegemony’s other wing.

Hegemony prepared to roll the dice favoring BJP candidate.  Politics finds strange bedfellows in the ambiance of adversary becoming an ally and vice versa.

Indian state Gujarat former Chief Minister Narendra Modi was hegemony approved candidate in the bogus Gujarat re-election in 2012 against pseudo contender supposedly representing common man basically to stifle average citizens’ representation.

Hegemony policy and advise to power hungry political class to ride on targeted individual’s back while the entity isolated and shunned from reference in sheer violation of free speech and democratic rights justified under false pretext is indicative of fearing expeditious self-collapse.

The piracy and plagiarism evident in copyright infringement with ideas, solutions, phrases and style from PadminiArhant.com presented as their own not to mention identity theft speaks volume on the political and personal character.

Furthermore, imitation of positive contributions without due acknowledgment is fraudulence and forgery constituting punishable crime in a civilized society in addition to burdening self with irreversible karmic effects.

Alternatively, caricature by paid actors using offensive material and platform is desperate times seeking desperate measures eventually hurting the catalysts and source. The contrived conduct poorly reflects on the promoters’ background and political embodiment.

Above all spying and 24/7 surveillance including eavesdropping and intrusion in private residence with little or no respect for other’s life is indecency and perversion emanating from political insecurity.

On the contrary, the political circle and everyone connected to them depleting national income and thriving on taxpayers funded salary and privileges not excluding sprawling mansions live discreet life cloaked in secrecy when they deserve to be on public radar.

In other activities placing the gun on other’s shoulders unleashing provocative and inflammatory sentiments is a cowardly gesture and do not necessarily safeguard the façade for what lies underneath is explicit in legacy and ongoing trend.

All actions have serious repercussions without exception.

Hegemony and delegates in Indian politics as Muslims half-brothers feign identity denying undeniable relationship with indifference to warfare imposed on people of Islamic faith worldwide.

The incumbent Indian administration recent borrowed remarks on terrorism is a cliché and disingenuous in light of latest abstinence on UN vote rather than unequivocal yeah endorsing Palestinian rights to file complaint on Israeli authorities’ atrocities with International Criminal Court of Justice.

Simultaneously Indian political apparatus at hegemony behest slight real freedom fighters like Netaji Subash Chandra Bose deemed imperialists enemy.

Juxtaposed the functionaries unduly glorify late Indian President A P J Abdul Kalam perhaps because of latter acquiescence to foreign manned Indian government’s unsavory stratagem.

Hegemony and Indian political contingency convoluted disposition is self defeating in the heightened absurdity.

The uncanny resemblance in hegemony remote rule in India cannot escape attention.

Hegemony projected ex-Prime Minister Manmohan Singh with emphasis on integrity to keep Congress headed UPA in power.

Now the 66 years old Prime Minister Narendra Modi is hegemony’s poster person to advance foreign agenda.

Nonetheless fake image and personality is a hard sell requiring hyped marketing. Anything unauthentic inevitably fizzle more so with those inclined to despotism verifiable in history serving as testimony.

Likewise, hegemony loyalists P. Chidambaram holding finance ministry during Congress tenure and same portfolio awarded to BJP’s unsuccessful candidate Arun Jaitley in the national election is pre-determined decision mocking democracy.

Not long ago hegemony slated BJP as fundamentalists, hindutva and saffron party refusing then Gujrat Chief Minister Narendra Modi travelers visa to visit United States quoting Godra communal violence as the factor.

Now in the well known political flip flop hegemony extending unprecedented rating lauding Modi governance is misnomer ignoring significant failures enumerated below.

Indian Parliament Monsoon session stymied and pronounced complete washout in the domestic front and foreign affairs – the critical high level talks between nuclear neighbors India and Pakistan – National Security Advisors meeting cancellation explains the lack of initiatives and misplaced priority.

Farmers plight with suicides that began in Congress fronted UPA duration escalated at present and war veterans hunger strike to receive fair pensions initially resisted authorizing police intervention to disperse peaceful assembly.

Modi Sarkar or government dubbed Mercantile Modi not without reasons with India’s wealthiest and leading industrialists Mukesh Ambani and Gautam Adani exerting influence and their delegations regularly accompany PM overseas tour.

Modi administration in return exchange partiality with requests to United States to list the moguls from economic, entertainment and political field in VIP category exempting them from security protocol applicable to ordinary citizens within and outside United States.

Indian political structure adapts United States political pattern with Wall Street drafting legislations through intense lobbying alongside special interests like AIPAC, NRA, religious zealots and institutions for imperial aspirations remaining firm on their respective ideology much to national and international detriment.

Viewing through Indian prism, the political parties predominantly represent the rich, famous and powerful in society.

Indian politics using caste and religion for communal divide is standard practice inherited from colonial ruler.

NDA and BJP trust deficit with Muslim community in India stems from Gujarat and Ayodhya incidents no less than counterpart Congress response towards Sikhs and Sri Lankan Tamils aiding previous Sri Lankan President Mahinda Rajapaksha brutal crackdown following former Prime Ministers Indira Gandhi and Rajeev Gandhi assassination.

The political tactic to address this problem is indeed uniquely deceptive.  BJP cohort All India Majilis-e-ltte(?)had-ul-Muslimeen (AIMIM) – the Hyderabad based party flamboyant President Asaduddin Owaisi and sibling Akbaruddin Owaisi are BJP leadership and RSS sponsored canons exacerbating the existing authority credibility.

Whenever politics engage in Machiavellian approach aimed at end justifying the means, these are ominous signs for precipitous decline.

The analogy using Congress and BJP applies to regional political parties with prolonged rule enforced via flawed electoral process.

Indian political chronicle too consists assassination conforming to violent removal of leaders especially Mahatma Gandhi – pioneer of peace and non-violence raising poignant question on the price the nation expected to pay upon insiders committing treason to appease foreign power.

India’s freedom from oligarchy, dynasty, religious extremism and antiquated caste orientation preserved to facilitate hegemony dominance is paramount to experience pervasive progress in the country with vast potential.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

Jewish Holiday – Happy Rosh Hashanah & Yom Kippur 2015

September 16, 2015

By Padmini Arhant

Rosh Hashanah – The Jewish New Year emphasis on celebration and serious introspection is a clarion call for positive development.

The Jewish tradition – Rosh Hashanah followed by Yom Kippur recognized as High Holidays with 10 days in between two events known as Ten Days of Repentance is an interesting and relevant theme.

Yom Kippur significance providing opportunity for Repentance from the beginning to end of the holiday to reflect and reform besides peace with others could be utilized to bring unnecessary conflicts and prolonged crises to conclusion.

The importance of festivals is adherence to message exemplified throughout life accepting humility with genuine commitment for greater good rather than self interest.

Israel’s cooperation on Palestinian statehood with acknowledgment for every citizen’s birth right to be free and exercise political rights in their homeland would confirm the orthodox sect and Israeli authorities respect for Judaism and religious philosophy.

The best way to honor faith is to demonstrate principles in action.

Never too late to renounce negative trend and mend ways for peaceful resolution.

Happy Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur!

Peace to all!

Thank you.

United States – Conflicting Policies And Contradictions on Human Rights Violations

July 23, 2015

By Padmini Arhant

United States declined Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari request for arms to combat Boko Haram militant group during recent meeting at the White House on July 20, 2015.

Boko Haram is Nigeria’s nightmare wreaking havoc in daylight as well.

Nigerian President Buhari briefing on the militant faction Boko Haram incessant violence since 2009 having claimed at least 10,000 innocent lives and abductions of women and girls in large numbers did not receive White House empathy.

Accordingly Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari reaction to White House position is United States aiding and abetting Boko Haram.

United States exemplary record in this context cannot be slighted due to significance of the issue.

Palestine:  United States with Congress approval of annual $3 billion in military aid besides monetary assistance to ally Israel prolong violent occupation with continuous oppression, persecution and killing of children, women and men in Palestine.

Egypt:  United States $1.4 billion annual aid allows for U.S. direct control over Egypt military and political affairs suppressing human rights in Pharaoh land.

Libya:  The North African nation is a weapons warehouse to United States and western sourced stockpiles with Saudi Arabia and Qatar as chief distributors to terror operatives in the Middle East and North, Central, East and West Africa.

Yemen:  United States supplied F-16’s and diverse military hardware with armory to Saudi Arabia relentlessly used to decimate oil rich impoverished nation.

Bahrain: The Gulf state headed by Al-Khalifa regime hosting United States naval fifth fleet is a regular recipient of conventional arsenal from United States through Saudi Arabia and Britain’s defense contracts for use in the violent crackdown of pro-democracy movement up until now.

Syria:  United States sponsoring terrorism with ammunitions cache channeled via Croatia to Saudi Arabia reaching terror networks conflated with Qatar and Turkey arms provisions perpetuate conflict in Syria giving birth to al Nusra Front, ISIS, ISIL from the original al-Qaeda spreading across to Iraq, Lebanon and beyond.

Afghanistan:  Taliban and al-Qaeda access to arms and ammunitions made available from poppy cultivation and dealing with drug lords under United States and NATO operation.

Pakistan:  United States latest agreement on arms flow to Pakistan is to maintain the nation as terror haven subjecting Pakistan citizens to hostile conditions besides cross border tensions and incidents involving neighbors on all sides viz. India, Iran and Afghanistan.

Latin America:

South America: Colombia:  The South American nation with oil reserves and producer of gold, silver, platinum, emeralds and coal is United States military base. Colombia lately became the launch pad for United States predator drones in the region.

United States intelligence agency instigated killings of Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) leaders and FARC retaliation sabotage peace talks with Colombian government.

Caribbean & Central America:  United States extensive military and intelligence presence predominantly to topple democratically elected governments notwithstanding drug trade is the bedrock for corruption and political instability.

North America:  Mexico:   United States fast and furious program under incumbent administration facilitated weapons flurry to Mexican drug cartels prompting massive bloodshed and population exodus along the border.

United States intelligence apparatus linked to latest event with drug lord el Chapo – Joaquin Guzman escape from maximum security prison causing embarrassment to ruling government is self-explanatory.

United States traditional indulgence and sprawling activities having increased at an alarming rate,

The White House response to Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari plea to contain Boko Haram, stating United States law prohibits arms sales to nations that fail to tackle human rights– is a comedy mocking tragedy and highlights United States conflicting policy worldwide.

The solution to Nigeria situation is for government to intercept and prevent arms procurement by Boko Haram and affiliates with tough measures blocking delivery passage alongside pursuing militant group to surrender and end external forces backed terror outfit.

Contemporary dogma on war and terror is to promote extremism and militancy not barring cannibalism witnessed in Syria defining decadence era conclusion.

Military might presumed right only to discover the idea was not bright.

Peace to all!

Thank you.
