The moral pressure and international values, established over a
period of time, dictated that no country would transgress the boarders of another country. Incursion always meant either battles or wars. This phenomenon was noticed by the League of Nations. Finally it was shaped and adopted by the United Nations Charter. No member country is permitted to launch limited or extensive armed attack over another country. In the contingencies of complaints, full procedure and system was provided, where- under a country can lodge a complaint against the other for infringing the provisions of United Nations Charter or other norms of international law. The League of Nations failed to deliver goods, which resulted in the World War II. The reason was that the political jockeying of major powers in the League worked for the apparent and hidden interests of the controlling nations. These mistakes, errors and omissions made the humanity at large to pay colossal price including the development and use of the first Atomic Bomb. The United Nation was organized with the objectives that mistakes of the past might not be repeated. Alas! it was not so. From the time of Yalta Conference the aims of the major Allied powers stood precipitated. The United Nations General Assembly became a recommending body; while the Security Council became the ruling elite of the World. And of its five permanent members could block any proposed resolution or action, thereby extending their individual control over the whole globe. Conflict between member states found support of atleast one of the permanent members and opposition by another permanent member, thereby blocking a permanent resolution of the conflict. Infact, it was due to the conflict of interests between the permanent members of Security Council as distinct from the conflict between some member states. Slowly effectiveness of United Nations started loosing ground. Humanitarian aid remained the only viable activity of the United Nations. Peace keeping role remained the subject of sanction by the Security Council, which nearly invariably followed the finality of disasters as inkosovo etc., These circumstances generated and developed Cold War between the Capitalist and Communist areas of influence. The spy-rings, established through history, were adopted with new form and energy by these two giants. Double spies were trained and sent to different countries. This institution was so fine-tune that the super powers introduced, encourage, established and supported their spies to the extent that most of the times such spies became rulers of the small independent unsuspecting nations. Instead of twenty pieces of silver such spies were given colossal amounts, asylums and free licence to bleed the subject countries to the maximum. The easiest way to introduce such spies has been through armed forces or democratic offices. A stage was reached when America came into armed conflict with North Vietnamese who were supported by Russia and China. America had to withdraw and lost its face. To exploit Central Asian petrol and gas, America maneuvered to suck NATO in subjugating Afghanistan. The armed might of America has not been able to capture, control and sustained Afghanistan till now. The force, cruelty and inhuman treatment to the local population did neither succeed in Sudan nor in Afghanistan. However, America succeeded in placing a show boy on the main chair in Kabul. Yet American control could not be consolidated. Iraq was nudged into a war with Iran over Shatul-Arab. Saddam Hussain carried out the role given to him by the America. He foolishly attacks Kuwait thereby injuring Western interests in respect of oil supplies. He was made to reiterate through UN interventions in which Western might was utilized. The intrinsic reason was that America desire to get rid of Saddam and wanted to utilize Kuwait as a training ground for attack on Iraq. A campaign of vilification was, thereafter, unleashed against Saddam Hussain, the President of Iraq. More so, as Iraq had by then turned towards Russian support. The semblance of legality of attacking Iraq, on the basis of trumpeted possession of weapons of mass destruction, was not forthcoming from the Security Council. Weapons of mass destruction have not been unearthed from the devastated Iraq till now. America wanted to control the huge oil reserve of Iraq, which, by then were estimated no less than reserve of Saudi Arabia. To avoid embarrassment, America staged a trial and killed Saddam Hussain. To established control over Iraq, America prompted, initiated and developed hatred Sunnis and Shias in Iraq. This did not exist before American machinations. The illegitimate policeman of America, namely Israel was helped and allowed to develop and possess weapons of mass destruction. No notice was taken of it. However, its neighbors Syria, Libya and Iran were reprimanded, threatened and some penalized for efforts to possess mass destruction weapons. Iran did not break under this pressure. The American agents infused into high ranks of other neighboring countries kept on acting on American dictates and agenda. The Americans did not feel any moral embarrassment or infringement of human values when they managed the destruction of Lebanon, Palestinian Arabs and people of the other neighboring states. Lame justifications, without legs to stand were put forward by Western statesmen, never realizing that hypocrisy has certain limits. It is strange to note that Champaigns of democracy, firstly introduced it in settled areas and then through it, grabbed power for their moles. It resulted in break up of social order, moral values and good governance of such countries. Infact, Democracy is a rule by majority of the chosen representatives of a people. Such representatives, more often than not, look after their own personal interests than the views of the electorate. It is this anomaly which is exploited by the world powers. The leader of the chosen representatives are always more easily controllable than the nation as a whole. In such a case the population stands denied of the true leadership reflecting the wishes and objectives of the nation. There is no check on the chosen few if they decide to liquidate the whole country. Except for public demonstrations nothing remains in the hands of the population to trounce the purchased so called leaders of the nation. At such a juncture, the moles bring about law to kill, maim and neutralize the public and its objectives. Yet, where the population awakes from induced sleep, through information, media and knowledge, then these machinations become of no avail to the ruling Junta. The wrath of the population develops as a reaction to bad governance and lack of judicial relief, but it develops into a frenzy which becomes uncontrollable even through naked cruelty. Usurpers of power, be they chosen representatives or the leader at the pinnacle do not appreciate or understand this basic human psychology and its developing stages. At such a point the greatest leaders are those who step down voluntarily and leave a mark in the history. Needless to say that where the circumstances so develop visibly to show that the leaders obey the dictates of superpower, they stand exposed as a mole of such superpower. When the leaders of such superpower declare publically that they support such a mole, nothing else remains to be inquired or considered. Such commitment of the leaders of foreign powers demonstrates the deep and extensive interference by them in the affairs of an independent nation. Where the local chosen leaders have a personal axe to grind, they follow the pinnacle leader to achieve objectives, especially with the blessing of such superpowers. Where such leaders have amassed wealth and have established their domicile out of the mother country, then the only aim for them is to secure the already gotten benefits and clear the future path for further fraudulent benefits. Such leaders cannot be true leaders of the public. When they start manipulating the mandate given to them by the public, then it is moment of extreme worry for the population. It is in this context that attack and killing of Pakistan army personnel is to be understood. Against all norms and precepts of UN Charter, NATO forces launched the attack. The American mole did not seriously object to such a blatant act against sovereignty of Pakistan. Let the Pakistan people consider, if Hamid Karzai would accept an attack by Pakistan against its forces in retaliation of the loss of army personnel. Will America step in to save Afghanistan from such an act? If so, why did NATO forces commit naked aggression? A system was available to remedy complaints by NATO forces but they chose to act by themselves instead of the established principle of asking Pakistan government to look into the matter. The NATO declaration shows that the United Nations Charters has been thrown to the winds. Is it a nail in the forseeable coffin of United Nations? If so where is the guarantee of peaceful existence of small countries? Who will fill the gap when UN seizes to exist as a viable organization? Is it one of the initial steps to break Pakistan altogether, or are these steps directed to snatch Atomic Deterrence from the Pakistan Nation. Are these acts of exposed moles, an invitation to Armageddon? The powerful hands and their moles have to reconsider their policies and allow this globe to exist in the foreseeablefuture.
