preading
a strange brand of democracy through armed invasions and active
collaboration of most favoured fundamentalist dictatorship and
theocracies is a shady business we must all beware of. For observers of
world affairs like I, it is both painful and shocking that many of the
leaders of the North American and European nations of the West,
declaring themselves as the champions of democracy, seek to impose a new
era of pseudo-dictatorships and hegemonistic regimes on countries of the
Asian and African continents.
Can a democracy be called democracy if it first
gives birth to and nurtures terrorism, nuclear proliferation and
instability, and then through fraudulent pretenses invades the far off
territories of other nations with the collaboration of most favoured
military rulers heading puppet regimes with the declared mission of
establishing "democratic regimes" there.
But their slip shows. Even when several nations
are victims of disastrous natural calamities, like the Tsunami strike,
they and their embedded media seek to call it the "Asian Tsunami" as if
the Asian nations were responsible for the sin of creating the natural
disaster. It smacked of a sordid effort to politicise a staggering
natural disaster and inject an element of neoherrenvolkism into world
affairs.
It is painful to see that major Western media
leaders like the CNN and BBC would report all the gore and ghastly array
of dead and mutilated bodies of Asian and hold their lenses when it came
to visually depicting fires, quakes and acts of terrorism and
destruction in the Western countries. The embedded journalism, invented
by the Western nations like the United States, and electronic-channel
hegemonies being practiced negatively against non-white and non-Western
nations of the world should disturb not only the leaders of real Asian
democracies but also the real democracy loving people of countries like
the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and France. They should
hold their hegemonistic political leaders accountable for their
misadventure of turning democracy too into a branded product, different
for home use and totally different for export only.
A warning to the people of the world. Please
beware of the double standards of the democracy venders in world of
politics and media. For these venders of fake democracy, humanity causes
no concern. If there are heaps of dead bodies and skeletons as the
aftermath of the terror strikes on the New York World Trade Towers, they
deserve restrained and respectful visual coverage, not to offend the
sensitives of decent people who would revolt at the sight of gore and
ghastly death in cold reality. But the Asian and African blood and flesh
does not attract the same concern and respect from them. And those in
our own country, who blindly follow these Western standards of media and
meddlemanship, are also guilty of betraying public trust and confidence.
It is a pure case of turning democracy too into contraband products like
drugs and fake medicine to earn wealth and power, heroin dollars and
petro dollars. They support dictators, coups and political crooks in
other countries so that their own global trade in democracy should
flourish and remain lucrative. All I want to say is: Beware of this
double standard democracy, it is as poisonous as the national socialism
which once invaded humanity as a scourge under the fake shield of
nationalism and socialism.
