Prophets of Doom : Warmongers?
By- Pamarty Venkataramana
Every War has several fathers and patrons. Peace only has midwives.
War-casualties are a foregone conclusion.
Spoils of War are often little metal badges worn on sleeves or broken limbs and crippled systems. Society is a mere onlooker.
No War in era of advanced and developed Nations claiming first rights over the Planet can be justified.
The ends cannot validate the deadly means adopted. This is the reason why in the ongoing so-called #UkraineRussiaWar giants such as notably the #NATO bloc or the #USA and #SaudiArabia have not participated in the theatre of War, at best acting as cheerleaders for their perceived underdog.
All populations of the remaining comity of nations live in constant fear : none has a direct control and nobody can let self-interest be surmounted by others’ sufferings.
The hypocrisy of #OneWorldOneHumanity is clearly visible when the haloed body of the United Nations Organization can neither predict nor pre-empt or order ceasefire of such an unfortunate War.
Russia is a superpower like the United States, or China. Not in terms of economic prowess essentially but by virtue of the most powerful nuclear war heads they possess and the power of Veto which these countries enjoy in the gamut of power-play.
As such, enough thought must have definitely been applied by its Head of State before launching the military operation.
Tensions were simmering since long between Russia and it’s erstwhile cousin-State, Ukraine.
It was not as if the victim-country was caught unaware and attacked all of a sudden.
The long-drawn parleys and failed efforts speak of obstinancy,double-speak and mule-headedness on part of leaders who are screaming hoarse now.
Genocide was the charge and war-atrocities are the counter-charge.
Transparency was lacking and so was political will,either on account of a lack of political experience or maturity on part of accidental leaders who get sprung on to the centre-stage of so called democratic-societies.
Ukraine’s Head of State is a classic example of being caught in a web of subterfuge and empty euphemisms of bloc-politics. Those who had guaranteed Ukraine of nil attacks when it had signed and given up on its huge stockpile of nuclear weapons have been unable to both prevent as well as join shoulder-to-shoulder in this beastly conflagration.
War-mongers. So, who are they? These are the Prophets of Doom.
In a bid to sell their ever-improvised arms, ammunition and highly sophisticated weapons, they bribe Politicians,Bureacrats and Lobbyists.
They build up a paranoid hysteria of budgetary allocations for defence sector far exceeding vital agricultural-sector.
They instigate and induct hyped-up commentators as payroll-spokespersons in television-debates to engage or indulge in mass-hypnosis of common public.
Such is the DNA of the prophets who thrive on mayhem, broken will power and a fragmented society.
Thus,religion is but a label.
Those who so foment trouble are not to be praised or worshipped but castigated in no uncertain terms.
Shun those who preach violence but do not let these black sheep of civilized humanity to go scot-free. Nail them to help create a new world order and allow fallen societal-mores to breathe afresh, all over, again.
The United Nations General Assembly must resolve to declare any ‘religion’ that dictates manslaughter and genocide on grounds of not following the religion of a bygone era’ s prophet,as being Inhuman and Unlawful.
So, ban it.
A vast majority of war-mongers would become invisible and all Earth would once again begin to co-exist in harmony,only dreaming of conquering far-off Planets, instead of tracts of Mother Earth.
War-mongering should end. Stop all hostilities. Peace be unto all of Mankind.
