Ignorant and Egoistic Leaders are a Menace to Peace and World Order
Are political contradictions covered by tyranny of reason to conceal egoistic dynamics? One wonders if America claiming to be the most powerful nation is really a powerless nation afraid of its own future. Logic has its own truth and truth is one, not many. The traditional colloquium of West Europeans and the US appears on a collision course since coming of President Trump, 2nd unexpected term of office. Peace and humanity unity cannot be achieved with weapons of destruction but with intellect and visionary foresight and that looks rare on the European-American political horizon. In clear violation of international law, America kidnapped Venezuela’s leader at gunpoint and Europeans kept silent as if history was not reversed in its standing. What happened to international law and principle of non-intervention of states? Now, it is Iran to embark on for Israeli security, flow of free oil and domination.
Israel is a nuclear power (50-100 arsenals according to the media), Iran does not have the capacity to make a nuke, but it is under redlines set by America and Israel. Both need wars to distract humanity from the real issue of Palestine and the future of Gaza – a devastated strip by Israeli war machines. The Geneva Conventions and the UN Charter failed to protect 2.4 million civilian population of Gaza from crimes against humanity and genocide. America broke its obligation and promise to follow the Charter. The world is divided along ethnic, nationalistic and strategic dimensions and global humanity is its net victim. Global consciousness synthesizes an awakening call to challenges posed by the US leadership and Israeli crimes against Palestinians. Most oil producing Arab leaders are Western puppets, either they need Trump or Trump needs them to shelter wickedness and tyranny. After genocide in Gaza, Israeli would move to larger conquest as the US ambassador claims Israel has the right to all Middle East land. The cult makes its intentions and strategic plans known to occupy the Arab world.
American and Israeli leaders having unbridled ambitions and power unleash violent assumptions of hatred, secret intrigues and animosities and killings overwhelm the daily thinking process, a society - a nation no matter how normal claims to be, cannot function as normal beings to co-exist with their own self, the surroundings - in the human culture and make any positive contributions to human change and progress. Is the psyche of war ingrained in their DNA? God created the Heavens and Earth as a trust to fulfill all human aspirations and to flourish human generations since time immemorial. It was not meant to be bombed and destroyed by sheer ignorance and wickedness. How do We, the People of Human Conscience make these ugly and disingenuous politicians to understand and learn from history and change the course of events into peace and harmony for all of us? The quality of our intellectual consciousness is lost in the world of time and space. Israel would never honor its Oslo Peace agreement disclosed later Professor Francis Boyle and Edward Said (this author) as they advised Yasser Arafat not to sign the Clinton broker deal of peace between Israel and PLO. Vice and virtue cannot be combined in one character. Israel never stopped bombing and killing people across Gaza and West Bank- Palestine.
The Earth is a Living Entity and We, the People are its Natural Trustees
We live on earth that sustains all forms of living things, yet human ignorance and arrogance are at work to destroy the essential foundation of our own lives. The creation of Earth, Moon, the Sun and all working systems are a trust to humanity. Have We, the People, We, the Humanity honored and protected that natural trust and its obligations? In a recent article (“Conflict Beyond Reason: a dialogue to end the war is desperately needed”) https://www.uncommonthought: thisauthor narrated the truth not for geological or meteorological explanations but for the understanding of fellow human beings that the earth spins at 1670 km per hour and orbit the Sun at 107,000 km per hour. Imagine, if this spinning fails, what consequences could occur to the living beings on Earth. Think again, about the average distance of earth from moon is 93 million miles -the distance of Moon from Earth is currently 384,821 km equivalent to 0.002572 Astronomical Units -(https://www.newscientist.com/question/fastearthspin/#ixzz7C8p37S9X). If this God given system of distance between the Earth-Sun and the Earth-Moon were ever to change or slip, there will be no sign of life, human civilizations or habitats left on Earth.When nations and leaders subscribing to political absolutism start acting like God and challenge the sanctity and limits of the Laws of God; historically speaking they become an object of unthinkable natural calamities- earthquakes, wildfires, floods, deaths and destruction.
Life and wisdom are parables of human existence. Imagine! you as an intelligent being incomparable to others, and “God enrich you all that you ask for. But if you count the favors of God, never you will ye be able to count them. Verily, man is given up to injustice and ingratitude.” ( 14: 34, The Quran). To this author, a cataclysmic nature of human intellect is unleashing a highly irrational and unthinkable world of complexity to come to our consciousness destroying all progress and achievements of any human civilization on this planet. Most human intellect knows the basic imperative: “if you THINK intelligently, you could find workable remedies to human problems.”
In Search of a New World Order and Human Unity for Peace
Canons of rationality call for an urgent action to stop war between Russia-Ukraine and the ongoing instigation of war plans against Iran. To protect the mankind from further dehumanization and annihilation, People of new ideas (Idea Men) are needed to take initiatives for political change - indeed a navigational change at this critical moment: a New UNO with people’s leadership, New Global Political Systems of Governance planned and developed by the people of knowledge and integrity and rejecting Hobbesian “wars of all against all”; and producing a rational rebuttal to the war of insanity, torture, political tyranny, inept global leadership and offer a balanced new vision of a world enriched with learning knowledge of rational policy-making and decision-making, human equality, fairness, protection of life and its natural support systems, and the Universe and equal justice for all the living beings on this planet. Global leaders have no sense of accountability to learn from the Two World Wars.
Surely, We, the People could create a better and more sustainable world of today and tomorrow. A natural sense of piety and political wickedness cannot co-exist in one human character as most of the world leaders pretend to be. We must THINK and ACT outside the global box of political wickedness and cult of political allegiance to the few and sickening political minds of egoistic leadership. Time and history are not going to wait for the few insane outrages, phony statements on human deaths and destruction unless we take this challenge in its time and opportunity to make things happen for change and for the best of all mankind. American historian Harry Elmer Barnes ("Perpetual War for Perpetual Peace: A Critical Examination of the Foreign Policy of Franklin Delano Roosevelt and It's Aftermath”), offered this stern warning to American politicians if the US led wars continue leading to man’s annihilation from this planet:
"If trends continue as they have during the last fifteen years, we shall soon reach this point of no return, and can only anticipate interminable wars, disguised as noble gestures for peace. Such an era could only culminate in a third world war which might well, as Arnold J. Toynbee has suggested, leave only the pygmies in remote jungles, or even the apes and ants, to carry on 'the cultural traditions' of mankind."
