A New Cold War, Between the People’s Economy and Political Economy, A Weapon of Nuclear Sanctions’ Its Effect on the World Economy is Like Radiation

 

 

  A New Cold War, Between the People’s Economy and Political Economy, A Weapon of Nuclear Sanctions’ Its Effect on the World Economy is Like Radiation

Economic ties bring countries closer together. It is not a question of increasing the influence of one country in other countries, economic survival is equally important to all. Nord Stream 2 will not  increase Russia's influence in Europe, it will become the common economic interest of Russia and Europe

 

  This man, Vladimir Putin must be doing something good since the four presidents of the United States have imposed so many sanctions on him that no one in the history of the world has ever imposed such sanctions. President George W. Bush imposed sanctions on him, then-President Obama adds more sanctions on him, its diplomates were expelled from the United States. Then-President Trump broke the records of Bush and Obama by imposing more than a dozen new sanctions on him. President Trump also expelled his diplomats from the United States. Now, within 100 days of his presidency, President Joe Biden has imposed tougher new sanctions that will make it harder for him to survive politically. Now, what is the difference between interfering in the elections of a country and overthrowing the government by imposing strict sanctions on that country? These are the political sanctions of the United States on which the President has his stamps.

  The US foreign policy establishment considered Boris Yeltsin to be the most popular president in post-communist Russia. Who was always drunk, he was the first democratic president of Russia, under Boris Yeltsin Russia was in such a bad political and economic shape that Russia would probably not be in such a bad shape after World War II, during the reign of Boris Yeltsin, Russia was in a state of extreme lawlessness and chaos, looting Russia’s national assets, the government did not have the money to pay the salaries of government employees and its arms forces? The separatist civil war in many Russian caucuses had taken a terrible turn, bombs were exploding in Moscow. The foreign policy establishment in the United States believed Russia would no longer be in the club of world powers. Under these circumstances, Vladimir Putin entered Russian politics, President Putin quickly overcomes the situation in Russia. Terrorism was over in caucuses. Chechnya, which was devastated by the civil war, was rebuilt, economic activities were restored in Chechnya, now Chechens are living in peace. President Putin brought economic stability to Russia. The oil and gas industry developed tremendously. Cold War debts to Russia were paid off. $80 billion was returned to Germany. President Putin did so in the first few years of his rule, Russia’s economy was on par with the United States and Europe. Russia’s foreign reserves would be $700 billion, Russia became a major trading partner of Germany. Russia was granted membership of the Group of Seven. Russia’s fastest-growing economy has been put on hold by economic sanctions.

  The US economy has been hit hard by the irresponsible wars, and now the economies of other countries, especially China and Russia, are being hurt by economic sanctions. Economic sanctions are a kind of nuclear weapon, it is used against few countries but almost every country in the world affects its radiation. US economic sanctions on China and Russia are in its foreign and defense interest. They have nothing to do with the interests of 180 countries of the world. The United States has imposed economic sanctions on Iran only in the interests of Israel and Saudi Arabia. Israel has its own interests and has used Saudi Arabia and the United States. The United States imposes sanctions on countries, companies,  banks, that do dealing with Iran or any country which is under US sanctions. On the other hand, voices are being raised against this influence of the United States on the world economic system, and there are demands for an economic system in which their economic interests are also protected.

  The main reason behind the US tensions with China and Russia is that they are trying to replace the 70-year-old system with a new world order in which trade can take place in more than one currency. This view is also being agreed upon in the European Union. The world 70 years ago was the world of developed industrialized countries, in which the natural resources of poor countries were plundered and exploited. Their raw materials were not given a fair price, developing countries at the time called it an unfair trade. China was one of the developing countries. The globalized world of the 21st century has overtaken this exploitative world and today the United States and other developed industrial countries are pushing for fair trade with China.

  It is a matter of thinking, a closer look at the world map reveals that China’s trade and economic policies are not about plundering, these are  bilateral  economic development policies ‘our economic growth is your economic prosperity.’ The results of China’s fair trade in America's unjust wars for 40 years seem unfair to the United States.

For Pakistan, the Best Policy is to Stayed Away from Afghanistan’s Internal Politics, Close the Border with Afghanistan Until There is an Agreement Between the Kabul Government and Taliban

 

For Pakistan, the Best Policy is to Stayed Away from Afghanistan’s Internal Politics, Close the Border with Afghanistan Until There is an Agreement Between the Kabul Government and Taliban

 

After twenty years, America is leaving Afghanistan in many chronic problems for the Afghan people, a strong warlord, corrupt systems, drugs trafficking mafia, corruption in government, culturally divided country, America did not win the war and did not fix Afghanistan.

 

How close is America Pakistan military to military relations, after 9/11, President George W. Bush called on President General Pervez Musharraf to clean religious extremists in Pakistan’s military and ISI, who were supporters of Bin Laden and al-Qaeda. President Musharraf had expelled them in large numbers from the army and ISI.

Now, 18 years later, following the January 6 attack on the Capitol Building, the army Chiefs have ordered an investigation into extremists in the US military. These extremists are white supremacists, neo-Nazis, and black life matters. A significant number of veterans took part in the January 6 attack.

  With the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan, Pakistan is being brought back on the radar of Afghan politics. The Afghan Taliban is trying to give a new lease of life to its relations with the Pakistan army and ISI. The balance sheet of support and opposition to the Taliban shows only Pakistan’s deficit. Pakistan is being punished for being too close to Afghanistan. Pakistan has also realized the benefits of distance from Afghanistan, after the US withdrawal from Afghanistan, Pakistan should close its borders with Afghanistan until there is a lasting political agreement between the Taliban and the Kabul government. It would be a great injustice to dump the humiliating failures of the United States and NATO in Afghanistan on Pakistan.

  The United States and Pakistan has been involved in Afghanistan since the 1980s. in 1990, The United States abandoned landmines for Afghans and jihadi landmines for Pakistan. The United States had turned its back on this global tragedy, what would be the political map of Europe if the United States left Germany at the end of World War II? The wrong policy and irresponsible attitude of the world power is a terrible disaster for the world. Pakistan suffered terrible consequences in the 80s, 90s, and then after 9/11. The world is misinformed and disinformed by the American media that the United States has not been able to eradicate the Taliban because of Pakistan’s role in Afghanistan.

  The two US commanders-in-chief and their subordinate commanders are responsible for making the Afghan war the longest war in US history, their wrong policy and bad planning play a big role in this. President George W. Bush’s national security team failed to devise a strategy to end the Afghan war quickly. Little did these ignorant know that the Americans they were fighting in Afghanistan were trained by the CIA, and they drove Soviet troops out of Afghanistan, and with that training, they will pull American troops out of Afghanistan. The Taliban were weak in October 2001, it was quite easy to remove the Taliban from power in 13 days, but the Taliban had organized for a long war with US forces in 13 months. In October 2001, President General Pervez Musharraf advised President George Bush to negotiate with the Taliban and resolve the Afghan issue as soon as possible. Condoleezza Rice, President Bush’s national security adviser, rejected the offer, saying the war in Afghanistan would continue until the Taliban were eliminated. This irrational policy set the stage for a long war in Afghanistan. The United States fought for 20 years in a country that was the worlds’ poorest. It had already been ravaged by wars for 20 years, first with Soviet army, and then civil war among themselves, for a global military power like the United States, 20 years of war in Afghanistan and then defeat was a disgrace. If President Obama was determined to win the Afghan war at all costs, President Obama had succeeded in this mission, he would have changed the Afghan policy of the Bush administration and worked with Pakistan in the same way that President Reagan worked with Pakistan on the Soviet military issue in Afghanistan in the 1980s.

  But ironically, after the visit of Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon to India, the inclination of US policy towards India had increased. On the Obama administration’s radar, Pakistan had the issue of nuclear weapons. Israel, India and the United States were intended to somehow snatch nuclear weapons from Pakistan. The covert activities of Israel, India, and the United States had intensified in Pakistan, terrible bomb blasts were taking place in the cities of Pakistan, military installations were being attacked. The army and ISI offices were attacked, several high-ranking military officers were killed, they attacked and destroyed a Pakistani AWACS plane near the Gulf. There was a 14-hour fierce battle with foreign terrorists at the naval base in Karachi. Evidence of India’s involvement in these attacks in Karachi and in Pakistan was given to the Obama administration but the response was always cold. The United States could have relations with India against the interests of Pakistan, but why could not Pakistan have relations with the Taliban in its own interest? In the end, the United States had to compromise with the Taliban. The United States had enlisted the help of Pakistan to bring the Taliban to the negotiating table. Now let the world know whether the US has lost the Afghan war because of Pakistan?

  President Trump asked Pakistan for help in ending the Afghan war, President Trump was serious in ending the war, Pakistan also helped seriously. President Trump kept India away from these efforts. President Trump if not completely, but at least succeeded in ending the Afghan war.

New Name of Anti-Semitism: Benjamin Netanyahu, in Ten Years He Damaged Jewish State Tremendously, He has Lost Popularity among Israeli People, He has no Credibility in the World, He is not Peace Maker, He is Peace Breaker, He has been Indicted in Serious Corruption Cases, in the Court of People, People are Demanding “Netanyahu has to go, ten years are enough.”

 

 

New Name of Anti-Semitism: Benjamin Netanyahu, in Ten Years He Damaged Jewish State Tremendously, He has Lost Popularity among Israeli People, He has no Credibility in the World, He is not Peace Maker, He is Peace Breaker, He has been Indicted in Serious Corruption Cases, in the Court of People, People are Demanding “Netanyahu has to go, ten years are enough.”

 

Eighteen years ago, President George Bush had said no talks with Chairman Yasser Arafat, Palestinian bring new leader. Today President Joe Biden should have supported the Israeli people’s “Netanyahu has to go.”

   If Saddam Hussein had said that we would not allow Israel to have nuclear weapons, it is a threat to our security and survival. Israel has occupied the Arab land with conventional weapons and if Israel has nuclear weapons, it will occupy all of Arabia, and if Saddam Hussein had carried out a cyberattack on Israel’s nuclear facility, and assassinated an Israeli nuclear scientist, what would have been the reaction of the United States and European countries?

  Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been in power for ten years. What has Prime Minister done to promote peace and human rights? Looking at the political map of the Middle East, one can say Israel is a Pseudo democratic state, and in the region, nobody is interested to adopt Israel’s style political system. Prime Minister Netanyahu has destroyed many Arab countries. Palestinians have been displaced and confiscated their land settlements have been built on their lands. Hamas and Hezbollah has been declared terrorists for resisting Israeli military occupation and aggression. The Arab King, the Crown Prince, began to look like a paper tiger, Prime Minister saw it as the best opportunity for peace with the weak Arab leaders, but perhaps no peace with Arab peoples. Keeping tension in the Middle East and making peace with Kings and Crown Princes is not a good solution to the chronic conflicts.

  If after World War II peace and stability were considered necessary in half of Europe and half of Europe was deprived of peace and stability, would there be peace in Europe? What would be the map of peace and collective security in Europe? Reconstruction and Economic stability was important in Europe, on which collective security was established. Collective security was a successful system in keeping peace in tensions between two different ideologies. Collective security systems can also be adopted in the Middle East. This will allay the nation’s security concerns.

  Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sees the Middle East only in Israel’s security. There is no leader in the Middle East to counter this narrow-mindedness of Prime Minister Netanyahu. In ten years, the situation around Israel is one of Prime Minister Netanyahu’s worst political failures. The Prime Minister has lost his credibility. The Prime Minister has failed to win a majority in Israel’s four elections in two years. Israel’s diplomatic relations with four Arab countries were not hailed by the Israeli people as a major victory for Netanyahu. In any democracy in the world, when the president or prime minister is indicted on corruption charges, he separates from the government and clears his name by going through the judicial process. But Prime Minister Netanyahu, who has been indicted on serious corruption charges, remains in office in Israel’s democratic system, manipulating Israel’s judicial system. Netanyahu is still in the prime minister's office and is now seeking a majority with the help of other parties to become prime minister for the fourth time. During the election campaign, thousands of Israelis demonstrated at Prime Minister Netanyahu’s residence, chanting “Go Netanyahu Go.” We hope President Joe Biden Protects the democracy in Israel.

‘An international embarrassment,’ One, Gun Violence in America, Two, America’s Weapons are Killing Innocent People in the Middle East; Weapons are Number One Enemy of Humanity

  Gun violence in the United States and the sale of weapons to countries in unnecessary wars around the world are similar issues. Gun violence has risen dramatically in the last 20 years, at the same time, new fronts of war have opened in the world. There were protests all over the world against wars and whenever people in the United States died in gun violence, there was a lot of talk about making a strict law against the sale of guns. But the supply of weapons was not cut off during the wars, nor was anything done to control guns in the homeland. Iraq was invaded to destroy its weapons. After destroying old weapons, new weapons were first given by the Bush administration to various militia groups in Iraq. When the new government of Nouri al- Maliki, Prime Minister was formed in Iraq, Bush administration started selling arms to it. Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki used US weapons to eliminate militias from Iraq. Weapons from Iraq were reaching North Africa, West Africa, and the Horn of Africa. The United States has said that if US troops leave Afghanistan, al Qaeda and ISIS will enter Afghanistan and then attack the United States and its allies from there. But Iraq was no different from Afghanistan, weapons from Iraq were reaching al-Qaeda’s subsidiaries in Africa. Terrorist attacks were being carried out with weapons in African countries, innocent civilians were dying. The governments of these countries were asked to eliminate terrorists. The Obama administration provided $ 500 million in weapons to the government of Ali Abdullah al-Salah in Yemen to fight al Qaeda, but the weapons disappeared from the government’s weapons storage. The CIA was conducting operations against al-Qaeda in Yemen at the time, but it did not know how the $500 million in weapons had disappeared. Perhaps, the Houthis used these weapons in the war against Saudi Arabia. Israel and United States have repeatedly accused Iran of supply weapons to Houthis.

  There were not as many weapons in the Middle East during the Cold War as there were in the Middle East 25 years after the end of the Cold War. The war on terror was a bonanza for weapons. The war on terror was a two-way street. The terrorists were being armed on one side of the street, and terrorists were being eliminated on the other side of the street. Nearly $1 trillion has been spent on wars in 25 years, $1 trillion was earned by arms manufacturers, now President Biden is asking for a trillion dollars to build infrastructure, putting the United States in this situation, its power is falling on every front in the world. President Biden should impose a 40 percent tax on weapons manufacturers, in regions where conflict and tension are becoming dangerous to humanity, there should be a strict ban on the sale and supply of all kinds of weapons.

  In a report by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute states that ‘International arms deliveries were flat between 2016 and 2020, more than a decade of increases was coming to an end. The United States, France, and Germany were the world’s biggest exporters, but Russia and China were lagging in exports. For the first time since 2001-2005, the demand for delivery volumes of major weapons between countries has not increased significantly in the last five years.’ According to the SIPRI report, but arms imports in Middle Eastern countries increased sharply, from 15 percent in 2011-15 to 20 percent in 2011-20. Saudi Arabia was the largest arms importer in the world. Its arms imports rose 61 percent and Qatar’s 361 percent.

  The United Arab Emirates has agreed to buy $23 billion worth of weapons from the United States, including 50 F-35jets. Qatar is the largest US naval base in the Middle East. It is a small country with a population of about 2.9 million. But the 361 percent increase in its arms imports is staggering. A country’s arms imports have increased by 361 percent, while an African country with a population of 50 million has no resources to import more than 2 percent of its medicines.

It Took Prime Minister Narendra Modi Three and Half Years to Respond to Prime Minister Imran Khan that ‘India desire peaceful relations with Pakistan.’

 

 

 It Took Prime Minister Narendra Modi Three and Half Years to Respond to Prime Minister Imran Khan that ‘India desire peaceful relations with Pakistan.’

 

Pakistan Army Chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa: “it's time to bury the past with India” This mindset concept should change that Pakistan Army does not want good relations with India. The fact is this, Hindu extremists do not want any relations with Pakistan. It was the Hindu extremists who assassinated Gandhi for recognizing the establishment of Pakistan.

Prime Minister Imran Khan, addressing 74th UN General Assembly, Sept 27, 2019

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, before coronavirus lockdown

 
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, after the end of the lockdown


  In his first address after becoming the Prime Minister, Imran khan had politely said to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, “Let’s sit down and talk.” We have suffered a lot of controversies, now liberate the region from confrontation and work together for the economic development and prosperity of the people of both countries. When there is economic development in the region, the security threats of nations diminished. Neither Pakistan will be a threat for India nor India will be a threat to Pakistan. Our economic interests will be paramount, Prime Minister Imran Khan had expressed goodwill views for India. Which was praised in the political and media circles of India. It has taken Prime Minister Narendra Modi almost three and half years to respond to this sincere goodwill of Prime Minister Imran Khan. Even with the speed of a freight train, Prime Minister Modi’s response should have come to Islamabad in three months. However, this is India where the pace of peace, human development, and goodwill decisions with neighbors are always slow.

   Time has proved that the thinking of Indian leaders was wrong, and the decisions were wrong. Indian leaders believed that the war on terror would be a long one and that Pakistan would remain the epicenter of that war. This was a great misunderstanding of Indian leaders, every offer of Pakistan to work together against terrorism was rejected by Indian leaders. Pakistan has saved from terrorism without the help and cooperation of its elder brother India. Many more people have died in India from the coronavirus than from the number of people killed by terrorism in Pakistan, those who died from terrorism in India, the Indian government immediately blamed Pakistan. Now the thousands of people who have died in India from the coronavirus should blame their incompetent government. The government is also hiding the figure of the death toll, lives would have been saved if the Modi government had the administrative ability, a country of one billion people is never locked down for months. India’s economy has been hit hard by the coronavirus, 12 million small businesses have closed forever, 20 million people are unemployed. How soon India’s economy recovers depends on how soon government controls the coronavirus.

   Before the coronavirus, Muslims in India were dying from the Hindu extremist virus, occupied Kashmir had been incomplete lockdown, phone service, the internet was shut down. Newspapers were shut down. Businesses were closed. The Modi government had tried to destroy the economy of occupied Kashmir with these actions. The Modi government was torturing the Kashmiris financially and the Indian Army, which was stationed outside the houses of the Kashmiris, was torturing them mentally and emotionally, countless men from thousands of Kashmiri families were missing. The government was not providing any information about them. International human rights organizations and Amnesty International was barred from visiting Kashmir. In India, on the other hand, Hindu extremists were waging a terror campaign against Muslims in densely populated cities in India. Thousands of Muslims were killed because of Hindu extremist terrorism. Muslim businesses were being looted; the history of Gujarat was being repeated against the Muslims. China has a human rights issue on the radar of the United States and the West. The way in which the human rights of Muslims in India, especially in occupied Kashmir, are being violated, is called India a democratic country. Today’s India is Mahatma Gandhi’s India, nor is it Jawaharlal Nehru’s India.

   When Vice President Kamala Harris was a senator, she strongly condemned the Modi government’s policy against Kashmiris and asked the Modi government to stop all actions against Kashmiris and restore their rights. Kamala Harris is from Tamil Nadu, and she is aware of the history of the Indian Army’s treatment of the people of Tamil Nadu and she will see the Indian army’s treatment of Kashmiris in the same history. The Indian government is not happy that the daughter of Tamil Nadu has become the vice president of the United States. if Pakistan pushes Kashmiris and puts them behind the vice president to raise the issue of serious human rights violations by the Indian government in Kashmir from every platform. ‘Kashmir Life Matter’ is also an issue in occupied Kashmir, while ‘Muslim Life Matter’ is also a problem in India. The rise of Hindu extremism in Modi government is as dangerous as white supremacy in the United States, and there is neo-Nazism in Europe. Democracy has eroded in India under the Modi government. Freedom of the Press is attacked by Hindu extremists. Last month, two university professors were fired under government pressure for criticizing the Modi government India is sliding towards Hindu extremism in the watch of America and Europe. Pakistan’s close ties with China and new ties with Russia are helping keep Pakistan on the path to democracy. The thinking of the Pakistan Army has changed dramatically. Army Chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa’s recent statement reflects the thinking that “We feel it is time to bury the past and move forward.” Before, General Pervez Musharraf in military uniform had gone to Delhi to sign a peace deal with Janata Party‘s Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee, but at the last minute, Prime Minister Bajpayee backtracked on a peace deal with Pakistan, as Prime Minister Bajpayee had to get threat from Hindu extremists for signing the peace agreement with Pakistan. The mindset concept that Pakistan’s army does not want peace with India is wrong. In fact, Hindu extremists do not want peace with Pakistan. Gandhi was assassinated by Hindu extremists for recognizing Pakistan.

  Prime Minister Narendra Modi has become a prisoner of Hindu extremists, Prime Minister Modi’s hair has grown, his beard has grown. Prime Minister Imran Khan’s speech in the UN General Assembly, three years ago is in front of him, India has become dominated by Hindu extremists, and now they are looking to Prime Minister Imran Khan, how to get rid of this domination? Prime Minister Imran Khan is more popular among India’s peace-loving citizens than Prime Minister Modi, and they expect Prime Minister Imran Khan to bring peace to India and the region.
