Politics of Arms

One of the highest incomes of the Great US comes from its Arms factories. Many a great leaders like Kennedy , Lincoln have supposedly lost their lives over this.

At a time , when tensions between two countries are high, and almost on the brink of war, some manufacturers might already be rubbing their hands in glee.

It is surprising, that two great countries, like the US and UK have got only words for the Indians, who are sufferers due to the terrorism, and on the other hand, they are funding Pakistan with terror combat aids worth millions of dollars. It is surprising, that the people of Pakistan, US and UK are turning a blind eye towards this. This money, part of which will be pocketed by the politicians, the balance will be routed back to these countries, to buy arms and ammunition. By "combating terrorism", what exactly can one mean while giving the fund. This money is not going to be used by Pakistani's to educated their people, nor is it going to be used to eradicate poverty. When it comes to "combating terrorism", it will mean purchase and upgradation of its stock of weapons. And for US and UK, they get back their money, their stocks are exhausted, and they get to play BIG BROTHER. So ultimately they lose nothing, and gain a lot. After all, can a country in Recession, give away millions of dollars in funding, without batting an eyelid.

US has always supported such countries, and then, when the juice has been drained from them, when they know that now, these countries are totally bankrupt, they attack these very countries by saying that they are world enemies. They have a heavy artillery of weaponery...weapons of mass destruction....etc etc. The examples have been there for all to see. Iraq and Afganistan, Vietnam in their backyard....

Now they have trained their eyes on Iran. Wasn't the attack on Iran, by Iraq, the reason America landed over there to fight. At that time, Iran was their ally. Now it is its enemy.

Today Pakistan is its friend, tomorrow it will be its enemy.

Then to counter Pakistan, India will be its friend. It is to be seen, if we fall for this Politics of Arms.
