China - say no to Olympics!

The recent Tibet violence is slowly spreading to other districts and towns in China and should give the Communists there some off for thought to see the countless thousands who are not very happy with the governance so say the least. That said,it would be a mockery to write off the current Tibet violence as a public relations disaster. It shows at the very least the amount of discord that is prevalent in this Buddhist capital, one that no matter how much the communists may try to whitewash it as something else. It is quite evident that the communist rule has been very harsh on the Tibetans living there and then to say that the Dalai Lama, his holiness, was behind all this is just typical of the kind of behaviour that one may expect from the current Chinese government.
The fact of the matter is that the current government and the style of governance is not exactly loved in China or out side of China either. The neighbouring countries like those of Japan,Taiwan and India well know the risk and the danger that China poses to the whole world. China must understand that in order to develop further and to be considered developed, it must get rid of its dependence on the age old policy of fear and intimidation and must start embracing the concepts of free speech and religious tolerance. Until and unless this happens, the other countries would soon become developed long before China has. Take a look at Japan,in spite of its connection to the war time atrocities, today Japan is accepted as a widely developed country and one that is also highlighted as a model of development. Take a look at India, with so much baggage and so much poverty, India is growing much faster than all the other developed countries put together and is already three quarters of the way to getting that label 'developed'. China,on the other hand,if it keeps on suppressing its own people, would soon find itself in very hot waters, not the kind that one would find at a spa, but one that preempts a revolution. All I can say to any Chinese reading this is to batter down, because a storm is indeed coming and it is heading for the Chinese mainland!

Vote Obama, Not Clinton!

It is that time of the year again when all the crazies come out of the basements and try to entice us with a truckload of sweet nothings. But the one candidate that has come out on the top and seems to be sincere of the whole bunch is none other than Barack Obama. This guy certainly seems to be the one to lead the United States out of Iraq and into the golden future.

I for one would not advocate choosing Clinton, let us not forget all the baggage that goes with them. I have to say that piece where Hilary almost broke down in public seems to be too good to be true. Let us not forget that this is the woman who is supposed to have stood by her husband in spite of his cheating ways, and all for the sake of power. The Clintons have proved again and again that they would do anything for the sake of power and as such, should be given the shove to, when it comes to the nominations!

Russia and China block the Iran sanctions!

This is not exactly a surprising news, is it? Both Russia and China have enormous economic capital invested in Tehran and they know that if the U.N were to apply any economic sanction of any kind on Iran, they both face huge losses as well as the loss of lucrative oil contracts.
This does bring into the question of the 'Multi polar' world versus that of the 'Unipolar' one. Is the United states right in waging an economic war on a single country and expecting all the other nations to follow its lead? Many people may have something very strong kin nature to say to the United states, especially with the way that its foreign policies are being run. The way it is going, it is only a matter of time before the United states sees that it has no friends whatsoever in the International community. Both Russia and China are totally against the imperialistic attitude of the United states. What is more they both together with India are trying to fashion up a multi polar world, one that does heed to the rules of the book. Where the Unites states is concerned, it has long since thrown the book out of the window along with Jimmy carter. The United states has made it clear that it has no intention of being a 'hall monitor' but instead plans to be the bully. And do you want to take an educated guess who is in its headlights, Iran, right in the center of this storm that is yet to blow!
