Afghanistan in mess.. Chaotic developments
Colo Dr K Prabhkar Rao
If Trump was there in saddle, this calamity would not have taken place In the world
there are always some rogue nations, and individuals , tribes and people and they have to be contained at all costs by the world nations for tranquility of all nations. In this context Bush junior the former US president declared the evil axis comprising former Iraq under saddam Hussein, Iran and North Korea. He waged war against Saddam and dethroned him. Obama who came in next too was careful. Afghanistan is an unstable state right from the days of king zahir shah. The people are tribes men with strong disposition and could not be contained by most of the dynasties and even The Englishmen when they were ruling India. Maharaja ranjit singh was the only person who conquered it. After 9/11, America controlled Afghanistan and kept Taliban under control.
By getting away from kabul Americans have committed great tactical blunder and rogues are let loose on the world. Taliban live in medieval mental state and are danger to peace of world. Very soon we might see talibanisation of Pakistan which is a nuclear state and getting into fold of Iran. One should not be surprised if nuclear bomb technology is passed on to Iran. then a new evil axis will develop rapidly. Iraq will be replaced by Taliban state. India is basically a weak state mentally and thus can not emerge as a regional super power. A super power is one that can influence world matters by direct interference if required. Our capabilities are limited to mostly maldives , Andamans. Lakshadweeps and not even up to Sri lanka. We, are brow beaten by small countries like Nepal, Malaysia, Indonesia ,
Burma and Brunei etc. We must get rid of the idea of becoming a super power as we lack defense potential and economic status. At best ,we can be a regional strong state unwilling to co operate whole heartedly in world matters. NON ALIGNED NATIONS programme killed Indian spirit and it entered our DNA too.
Afghanistan had to be controlled militarily and sadly America abdicated the responsibility and let loose the medieval killers on the world. Twenty years of struggle by American soldiers and officers in this direction has gone down the drain .America can not be excused for this. One should not be shocked if Alquida the dreaded terrorist group reemerges from hybernation with vengeance. Ee will be mere on- lookers and become a prey to Alquida rogues. India will be the greatest looser with emergence of Taliban next door. Keep fingers crossed.
