Peripheral realities!!

While turning a newspaper, a man said to me “Yaar everywhere people are firing bullets nowadays “. Indeed if you are an avid reader and have a keen interest in world affairs, then you know whether it’s swat valley in Pakistan or Afghanistan or controversial Tibet or Sri Lanka, Bullets are the means for easy solutions. Elite powerful politicians have turned the world into a battle field. A battle field where the perpetrator of crime is so hidden in quarantine and although bullet are being fired blindly to uproot their existence resulting into mass massacre.

To understand let’s discuss something fresh. Recently, invincible LTTE had been buried into the past with death of Prabhakaran. Let’s dig up some ground why LTTE came into existence. Probably Sinhala community (majority) was not giving rights to Tamils (minority which came to Sri Lanka during British rule for working in their tea fields). Tamil women and children were not safe. Young girls were being raped allegedly by army and Sinhala dominated govt. took no action in protection. So Prabhakaran and his colleagues went for organized military actions for achieving Tamil rights and captured north Sri Lankan province which was later known as Tamil Elam” A cease fire agreement was done later which stipulated for no more war. But this is a world where few people always get engaged in evil counterpart, creating unrest for others. Smuggling of drugs, weaponry, animal’s body parts etc. Illegal business was carried out for source of income by LTTE. It had a well developed chain of workers and contacts in every country. The worst Prabhakaran did for Tamil people was use of citizens as suicide bombers. Shri Rajiv Gandhi, one of the beloved PM of India was victim a suicide bomber, sent by LTTE. Many Sri Lankan politicians became prey of suicide bombers till now. As an aftermath, Rajapaksa had to take military action against LTTE but who was the sufferer ultimately? Aam admi. Whether it’s Afghanistan, Pakistan, Lalgarh in India, Sri Lanka, these attacks have resulted a sea of refugees living in destitute and hunger. Their emaciated body with hopeless eyes says the whole story. There are two answers for their situation: one philosophical and one real. Philosophical reason first it was their destiny, real one they accompanied those who took path of terrorism for serving purpose.

After creating annihilation, Rajapaksa in Sri Lanka appeared with smile begging before the world for money to rehabilitate Tamil Diaspora and pledged to advocate their right of equality to fool world. What kind of a business is this!!

Naxalite in India, Taliban in Pakistan want parallel government. Is it feasible? Is their war against corruption is indeed true when their chiefs are having accounts in Swiss banks and their children’s are studying abroad? Are they really serving for purpose they ask for? Certainly not. Everybody understands it’s a private business now .In Pakistan people aspire to be Islamic first and Pakistani later. Is Taliban a solution who are themselves creating problem? Or everybody just wants to get noticed?

Nowadays If you want to get noticed do a fired, plan a bomb blast, give some racial comments etc . Boss you will get noticed. But you will get same in return. Don’t worry.

At the end of the day few will survive and will live with the pain in deep of their heart for loss of their beloved in this battle field created for selfish reasons of few. If we will be lucky enough we can read these news in newspaper and can comment as well as present an analysis as I did above or worst we will be come news someday.
