HOW THE WORLD HAS SPLIT TODAY,
By Ram Krish. 12th March 2022.
With the War Raging on in Ukraine for the 16th Day today, The World seems to be Divided. On the Surface it would appear that one is either
"Pro USA or Pro Russia".
This is what ill informed people think. No Sane Individual Backs a War especially one that could end up as a Nuclear war where the world will be destroyed with No Winners and Only Losers.
The Reality is The whole world Population is dead against the Ukraine War and and meaningless killing and destruction of Ukraine and displacement of population who are forced to flee Ukraine.
I agree two old men who lead USA and Russia are Taking their stand and sending youngsters to get killed in fighting their war. This has always been the case with Wars that are decided by leaders meant to care and protect the Nation & its Population.
Today in 2022 the Global Population is Divided into Pro USA or Anti USA. No denying that.
Who is Right and who is Wrong depends on which side of the Fence you are.
There are people who will tell you Forget History totally and look ahead to the Future. We humans are mere Mortals and Not Jesus Christ to forgive and forget.
How on earth do you expect people in Japan, Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria (to name a few) to forget interventions and invasions by US armed forces since WW II ?

In the Wild West Days the man with the better gun or longer range Rifle Won and the same Military Might is used by USA to destroy Opponents with weaker Military.
War in Ukraine is different. Russia is no Push Over and NATO involvement means ALL OUT WAR that will not be limited to Ukraine. It will involve all of Europe and let us hope Common sense will Prevail
Aussies who joined forces with the USA in Vietnam war can never forgive USA dumping agent orange of Civilian Population as well as allied forces including Aussie Troops. How do I know My Business partner was a victim himself.
Agent Orange, mixture of herbicides that U.S. military forces sprayed in Vietnam from 1962 to 1971 during the Vietnam War for the dual purpose of defoliating forest areas that might conceal Viet Cong and North Vietnamese forces and destroying crops that might feed the enemy. The defoliant, sprayed from low-flying aircraft, consisted of approximately equal amounts of the unpurified butyl esters of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,5-T)
When it comes to USA all is Fair in Love and War including chemical warfare using Agent Orange
RACIAL SPLIT:
Skin colour has the world divided
Fair skinned people feel they are superior to dark skinned people all over the world.
Anglosaxans or Caucacians believe they are the superior Race who looked down Upon all darker shades of skin.
Next comes the Asians or yellow race who believe they are superior to Indians and Africans.
Indians whose skin colour can range from Pretty Fair to extremely Black are the Biggest Racists on the world discrimination darker skinned people from their own communities. You just have to look at Matrimonial where every man wants a fair looking bride meaning Fair skinned). Also Indians will fall over Backwards to befriend Westerners but Loathe Africans. After all Caste bias exists in India like no where in the world. To this Day India continues to trod on Untouchables whom Mahatma Gandhi called Harijans or Children of God. The word Harijan has been wiped out and the same low caste untouchable are now called Dalits in India (I am not sure how this Change came about)
In India the Upper Caste Hindus also known as Hindu Brahmins consider themselves superior by Birth and Meritocracy.
Unfortunately this caste system has crept into Christianity and Islam in India.
"Believe It or Not" in India they have separate Churches for Dalits and it prevails amongst converted Indian muslims too
Religious Divide:
The World Population who believe in "God" believe in different faiths like Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism etc etc. Each and every religion brain washes their followers into believing their Religion is the Only Religion and "Their God is the REAL God" leading to religious conflicts.
Born a Hindu, educated in a Catholic School and having prayed in Mosques and Gurudwaras, Personally I believe in God but not in Religion which I believe is a man made Marketing entity.
Even within each religion there are Divisions like "The Catholics and Protestants" in Christianity, The Sunni and Shias of Islam who are for ever Fighting wars even though hey believe in the same Jesus or Allah.
Hindus will tell you that Hinduism is only a Philosophy of life and not a Religion but then Hindus are divided into Followers of Vishnu and followers of Shiva
Two Party Westminster Democracies also Split the National Populations into two.
Again a Divide and Rule Principle created by the British Royas where the Royals in the House of the Lords Rule over the Plebs in the House of the Commons
How this Came about is understandable. The British Royal Family witnessed the French revolution and realised the Royals cold not Control the Nation any longer
So they created the Lower house to represent the Common Man and reserved the Upper House for the Lords who had the Power to over ride legislations passed in the Lower house or House of Commons. This was an obvious division between the Rich and the Poor
India too adopted the Westminster Democratic system as it suited India best in 1947 as Pre independence Indian was made up of several kingdoms. When the Nation got Independence all the Rajahs and Nawabs of little Kingdoms of India were Made member of the Rajya Sabha as a Thank you for joining the Union of India. 75 years post independence all these Rajas and Nawabs are dead and gone and have been replaced by Sportsmen and Movies stars who are merely yes sir men to one party or the other and have no real interest in national politics and just get huge sums of Tax Payers money for doing nothing besides living like Royals with free Travel and a Lot of Freebies. I find this disgusting that even individuals who have Money Stashed away In Panama are Rajya Sabha members
USA is no different you are either a Republican or a Democrat. This is the same in each and every country that has adopted the Westminster Democracy system.
I strongly believe this system is so Out Dated and abused by parties tom stay in power and loot the Country
