Reincarnation of the Reich



They are here, they are back. Much have I heard, much have I seen, and nothing has changed, the unchanged face of insanity is ready to relive the carnage, this time far away from its very own place. The Nazi era that Europe had seen post world-war-I must be the most gruesome times of the 20th century for mankind.


The explanation of the Nazis' implacable hatred of the Jew tells about their distorted world view. They considered the Jews a race whose goal was world domination and who, therefore, were an obstruction to their own dominance and so they considered it their necessity to eliminate the Jews, they called it the "Final Solution"


Today, after almost 100 years, thousands of miles away from Germany, another race of men is trying to walk through the same lines. They call themselves the “Marathi Manus”. The Shivasena (a political party in Maharashtra run by some real losers) consider people coming to Mumbai from different parts of the country as their enemies, as a threat to their own interests. And its sibling Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS), which was built by Raj Thackeray who believes that the Sena is now "run by petty clerks", works under the policies that show their cavemen psychology, their methods are much more similar to the methods adopted by the Nazis before their coming into power.


They beat them in railways, they terrorize them in night clubs, call them Pakistanis, they are the same people who murdered Mahatma Gandhi and yes they are the same jobless “moral police”, the Marathi wing of the Saffron Mujahidin. And it is all done in view of improving their Marathi vote bank, the account which they have never been able to improve.


Each and every action of them speaks of their poor yet dangerous state of mind. The Holocaust scenario and the Marathi Manus madness are not all same though. Hitler might be considered as Satan in most parts of the world, and rightly so, his love for Germany though was perfectly implacable. He was a patriot of his own kind, ready to die and take lives for his country.


But his counterpart, Bal Thackeray, is a person of his own kind too, a kind that has nothing to do with interests of the country or the state, a kind who can do anything barefaced shamelessly for mere power, a kind which after living for 90 years still can’t learn that their hypocrisy was never needed. We have absorbed and inhaled so much of anger spewed by these blockheads.


People say that we have to take care of Pakistani and Chinese advancements at our northern frontiers, what we do forget is that an enemy lies within as well. It’s a plague, a new kind of radicalism that is spreading as no one is ready to take control, no one takes it seriously, and everyone waits until something unimaginable happens.

Ukraine changing sides...


If we leave aside Russia the second largest country in Europe turns out to be Ukraine. Previously past of the Soviet Union and a huge amount of coastline running along the rich Black Sea Ukraine has been part of much recent tussle between the Kremlin and the White House governments. Owing its positioning in the East Europe and centralised locations America has long sought interest in making its inclination towards the West.



Following the growing threats of Russian government on countries like Georgia whose fraternity America seeks to control as part of its game plan to control the reserves in the Black Sea, Ukraine was supposed to be the next biggest crown in its jewels.



Till late 2004 however the Ukrainians government was not so much open to West however with the corrupt practices of the government out in the open and a revolution that took place in 2004-2005 in Ukraine which followed the dethroning of its the then leader and reinstatement of Princess Yulia Tymoshenko as the prime minister, the era began with the inclination of Ukraine with the west.



The revolution came to be known as the orange revolution and Yulia Tymoshenko who came out as the winner ruled.


However with the recent elections that took place Orange revolutionary winner Yulia’s government has come under the clouds and triggered lot of unrest in East Europe and the Caucasus.



Previously under the many government foreign policies of Ukraine there were one in which it was thinking over a decision to join NATO and side up with America with a military bonding even though being strategically in the lap of Russia. Added to that there was another possibility of a pipeline construction that would bypass Russia and connect the reserves of the Black Sea to countries other than Russia.



Ukraine was definitely a giant threat to Russia strategically placed. It shared the life culture with the Russians but the American advance has left no stone unturned to keep it on their side. Recent Russian Georgian war and the problems in countries like Moldova where its division became the foreground of American Russian miniature cold war or the closing around of Armenia as Albania and Turkey went hostile to it due to American intervention has made East Europe the new playground of another kind of Cold War.







The Yulia government however turned out to be a disaster as nothing substantial could come out of the Ukrainian government.


The government had not been effectively able to provide any basic standard to the people rather became heavily popularised due to affinity to the western world and in light of denunciation of ethnic groups by France and Italy by banning minarets and the costly futile Iraq war has raised lot of discomfort in the Ukrainians against America.



Recent elections thus changed the story. For one they have reinstated the Kremlin belief in the Ukrainians and Viktor Yanukovich, the villain of the 2004 orange revolution, with a lead of more than 3% over Yulia Tymoshenko, the prime minister and the princess of the orange drama. He had mustered 49% of the votes against her 45.5% and has won the elections.



The grand victory is going to see lot of geopolitical shift in the regions around the old Soviet countries. This sudden shift from the white house to the Moscow of the Ukrainian people shows how much they needed the change. Most of the people who have voted to bring the Yulia government down were the Easters Russian speaking members who still have faith in Russia as a partner rather than being entwined in a war mongering America.



The elections have been fair and square and showed how much the people share their affinity to the Russian government and how much belief they have on democracy even though having a history of rigid communism.



The end is more or less clear. Similar to Venezuela or Yemen who are turning hostile to America one by one owing to the natural reserves which America has been eying since ages even the Black Sea seems to be lost by it.



Turkey has also turned hostile due to its Muslim population discontent and with the back out of Ukraine much of its coast line may be lost.

European Union in a FIX



Even as we remember much of what happened in Dubai as the entire stock market crashed and the world market was left lamenting on what has just happened many had speculated this was just the beginning and looks like it is turning out to be....



If the huge bailout of the entire American Economy was not enough, the later funding of the carcass of the Japanese Airlines which still hangs on the string between Delta or American Airlines for bailout support, what we have now next in line is the whole European Union on the verge of mass downturn and bankruptcy.



Well it has become public knowledge for the past few months even after defending their stance on the topic of financial stability that currently the entire European Union in facing a huge downturn and their economies stand on the rocks, and countries like Greece, Spain, Portugal, Ireland and most important of them Italy stands on being a blown up crashed economy.



European Union for the past two decades has been the symbol of financial wisdom and supremacy. With over 500 million citizens, the EU combined generates an estimated 30% share (US$ 18.4 trillion in 2008) of the nominal gross world product and about 22% (US$15.2 trillion in 2008) of the PPP gross world product.



The EU has developed a single market through a standardized system of laws which apply in all member states, ensuring the free movement of people, goods, services, and capital. It maintains common policies on trade, agriculture, fisheries and regional development. Sixteen member states have adopted a common currency, the euro, constituting the Eurozone and making it one of the strongest currencies in the world.



However with the current credit crunch many of the enlightened ones on the EU list are in the path of going bankrupt. Following the giant default in the Dubai when the Dubai world asked to further its payback of the load on about 60 billion dollars timeline by around six months the utter reality behind the situation is coming out.



The entire European regime has been built upon similar credit and much of the money that blew up the system also originated from the taxpayers in the European economies. Seeing this even in the European Union investors are getting worrying remark as the decline in the market is bringing out the hollowness in the system. The Standard & Poor’s has recently cut its credit outlook for Spain to “negative” from “stable,” fanning concerns that sovereign defaults will spread throughout the global economy.



The investors are fleeing away before a re-Dubai can happen. There is an increased fear among investors that the world could see a wave of global credit defaults and maybe it has started showing it ugly face of its beginning.



With the investor money dwindling and no further surging demand the credit system is bound to fall. The deficit with the government and most of the real estate companies stand over evaluated. However, Spain is just one of the region’s troubled economies. Europe’s most vulnerable countries have been nicknamed the “PIGS,” – Portugal, Ireland, Italy, Greece, and Spain. Fitch has even downgraded its outlook on Portugal’s sovereign-credit rating to “negative” from “stable,” as well, citing a deterioration of public finances.



The situation is like the productivity in the system in terms of real growth is zero so there are no way countries like Spain can innovate their way out. The bank cited figures from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) that indicate Spain’s housing sector it still 12% overvalued. At its peak, 20% of GDP was accounted for by the housing sector and construction.



The ratings agency in last year March cut Ireland’s triple-A sovereign debt rating by one notch and downgraded Portugal’s rating in January. Greece however has been an interesting case. It has failed to contain its deficit, which this year is expected to total 12.7% of gross domestic product (GDP). The country’s current account deficit rose to nearly 15% of GDP last year, but probably fell below 9% for 2009. Meanwhile, the European Commission (EC) projects Greece’s total government debt will exceed 112% of GDP. In downgrading the nation’s credit, Fitch said government debt was likely to rise to close to 130% of GDP before stabilizing, and that proposed pension reforms, spending cuts and broadening of the tax base would likely not be strong enough to reduce its debt burden.



If we look it from a different perspective that of the European Union the fiscal deficit of Greece which is the most in question due its thin line situation right now is around 250 billion USD which is not big for countries like France and Germany who still have a very sound financial situation but what complicates the problem is that they cannot bail out Greece.



Even if they bailout Greece how answerable they are going to the next country which is going to default. And leave aside Greece it is the grandmaster England too which is under the clouds. The private sector is slowly deserting these economies due to these negative sentiments are building up and the public sector is being overburdened.



Bailout is just not the answer to the situation. There has to be created a sustainable situation such that the countries are able to turn the wheel of financial system. Standing on their debt of huge amount is increasing the public outcry and the government is looking at the people for over taxation. However even if you overtax the public, on the daily items or other similar services how much more can you generate? Already the entire economy is bleeding and making it ever more vulnerable to a complete collapse can diffuse the setup.



The end is that the entire European Union is in a fix. They maintained solidarity in their triumphant days but with the debt burden what is to watch how they would fair on this front. The economies have maintained harmony till now but would throwing them out can be a question? It is a likely doubt as the situations may force an action. The negative sentiments are affecting the Euro as a whole and with no proposal of Greece bailout and their false belief of a Greece sustainability makes the future wary.



The public is in high discount and has constant complaints against the government but who is there to look after them. Who listens to common man these days......?It is the time of the demise of the commoners!!!!

Blinded: World Economy




What more could we have expected from the communist government of the Soviet Union when mass plunder and forsaken suppression of common man led to its final demise in the last decade of the last century and more than ten new capitalist looking economies emerged from its ashes.


The strength and base of communism is all wrong. It is nothing much different from what Adolf Hitler used to practice in Germany. In the Nazi Germany the German people were the slaves of one monarch while in the communist setup they end up being under the state. They end up being the mere pawns wherein their outlook and viewpoints are overlooked and what is given more importance is the supremacy and strength of the state of which they had been forced to be a part of.


Even after the fall of the Warsaw Pact which constituted all the communist powers under a single heading with the division built in Europe their still remains another communist entity that still happens to be a reminder of the days that were.


The Peoples Republic China though not in full colour still enjoys being called a communist nation. Though it portrays itself to be having extraordinary capitalistic regime wherein the right to property has somehow been made available to the people unlike of the communist ideology china still has to suffer a lot due to it.


Simple transformations do not change the in-depth truces on which its regime was built. It is but a widely known fact that china still enjoys the right of financial supremacy due to its command over cheap labour. But the question lies till when?


Till when is it going to let its men be the victim of its own decisions? This is where the biggest flaw of Chinese system comes into the picture- it cannot it just cannot let its men and women earn more for that would disrupt the situational benefit it had been receiving since ages.


Is not it a common knowledge that everything that we look around is Chinese made: let’s not talk about quality but the market has got entwined to this Chinese system of market capture and has become so accustomed to it that any slight variations would be heavily met.


The west on the other hand with their down trodden economies out of the securitisation mishap recently in a meeting of the World Economic Forum discussed just this one topic of how were they going to bring up the value of the Chinese Yuan against the dollar. How were they going to let their home DO i get a taste of the world going unflat?? Or maybe deglobalisation??


Take it from me that it is the only option that the government has found out in this regard.


Well what could the Chinese do anyway? The Chinese market is already heated up with such large liquidity due to continuous stimulus to keep the yuan pegged to dollar at a constant ratio and if the west foils a plan to somehow do things otherwise the whole market might set a lot of tremors here and there.


For one it would destabilise the Chinese export and god knows what would the American eat??


The relations of the Chinese have not been great recently with the American government with its recent decision to the sale of arms to Taiwan of which


China proclaims control of and the Google-Baidu- China mishap however with this recent development the ultimate nails might be drawn into the illustrious collapse of the American Chinese relations.


This relationship is a peremptory requirement for a sustainable growth of the world as the prosperity of the world depends on both their shareholders.


With Chinese help so entwined in the economic scenario, its reach of military arms and control over most of African nations, its reach over cities like Macau, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Singapore and the control over the full South Asian kingdom, its high gold and dollar reserves and the strategic positioning along the Indian and Pakistani subcontinent and the importance of it as a BASIC member in the G-77 and the Copenhagen Accord build up and application its conjugation in activities with America is a palpable requirement.


Therefore leave aside ever difference and look forward how we would build up the economic system. This communist power has still got so much strength to bring everyone around. Interestingly Indian billionaire Vijay Mallaya took up Chinese stance at the Economic Forum meeting siding with China that if west tries to make up exports difficult we would make them difficult to make the imports though.


Not a good start but common man everywhere is after all a common man and every civilisation has its own problem. A common decision can only put an end to this entire pandemonium.

Untying the Albatross:Emerging Bihar


The question isn't who is going to let me; it's who is going to stop me.

Wise are the words who speak it out;

Wise are the ears who hear it load:

Wise not the ones who distrust....



Some things in lives are usually taken for granted, but wherever and wherever the masks come out, and the path is paved by the heroic grace of purposeful men the utter reality behind every truth is finally relieved and what is laid out: is a barren portrait whom no one can avoid, not distrust only to succumb to blindness, by its magnitude and agglomerated reach.


Same is the state where in the Bihar Chief Minister finds himself today. Nitish Kumar the person in discussion is one of happiest people right now in Bihar. With the state heading for legislative elections soon and the recent reports of the GDP growth outshining many of ‘beyond the reach’ competitors, everyone is gaping - Is this the same Bihar?


Is this the same state wherein the scandals portrayed in movies like Apaharan and Gangajal occurred? Is this the same lands which were named as the land of the demons in the recent past? Is this the same place where two hundred untouchables slit the throat of every high caste they could get their hands on? The state of unrest; the state of distrust; the state of the animal husbandry scandal; the same state where in bandits and scoundrels rape a girl and leave her at her doorstep and go unharmed and the people revert back by acidifying the eyes of the men who deprived the girl of her honour.


Is this the same state- that is the question put up by all!!!


Well the question is just. And yes this same state which deprived the government from any shame. The same state where corruption and misbehaviour went rampant across every section only to deteriorate it even further. It is the same state. The same state that is known not just because of its cultural grandeur owing to the great Gautama Buddha, Mahaveer , Chandragupta Maurya, Chanakya or Gurunanak but right past the ages wherein till recent times it was noted as a significant part of the country.


It looks like the state is looking back in time and building itself again to wherein it was supposed to be.









For long the Biharis have been considered as an albatross tied to the Indian subcontinent, a disdain that nobody has much cared about. The word Bihari itself improvises the dark side of man lightens the people to nothing but distrust and pejorative attitude. But hold on even past the ages of malcontent Bihar has not stood back in sending the maximum number of bureaucrats to the government. Whatever you call them cunning shrewd over populated they have beaten most of them in being the people who drive to country to places and you still consider them ruinous.



Hold on I have another answer to that. If they are the disgrace to the society then let them be filthy and dodgy workers. Bihari migrate from their own homeland to far of places only to end up working in indecent jobs and dodgy workloads and you still disgrace them. They are god damn cleaning your neighbourhood, pulling your rickshaws and making your life easier.


What more do you want? You have Biharis working at your pennies everywhere and still you distrust them.....


You do not see that they have turned away from their own house to bring about a sustainable development in your house and now you want them out of what they are doing as you want your own people to do it.


Try it out and I promise you would meet most illustrious endings. You would not only endanger the complete economic system but also pull out the prime movers of the system. Market is a lot like a food chain. Every consumption is dependant what you consume and what you produce. There is a proper balance and if you try to wipe out a complete genre it is not difficult to examine if the strong Bihari force is wiped out of all the major cities in India how consequential their inexistence would be to the country.


Those people who disgrace these workers must know a causeless action never goes without hitting anything and in most cases boomerangs back.





As even Ayn Rand says you must fear men without cause because they would never let you sustain, be it any government democratic, communist the causeless species of men would drive the world to things that would not be right. They always have a pull to undo what they see being done and usually they end up undoing great things. People who disgrace Biharis are people who have no other purpose to do something better.


And you talk about the state’s depravity and its meagre development behind which every Bihari is climbing now a day’s well talk like this, they went in from a negative sustainable growth to a positive growth and that too comparable to the rates of the states like Gujarat.


You talk about GDP hear it- Bihar has an agriculture based economy that too with meagre facilities that a farmer could imagine. There was a huge flood in the river Kosi in 2008 and the repercussions of the water have still not been over. The tears have not still dried out form the faces of people from hundreds of villages who were dislocated due to it and the government is still fighting it to the mettle. The drought of 2009 had its heat spat even on Punjab wherein every new method of production is utilised and you still want Bihar to compete.


Farmers burnt their paddy fields last year damn it just because they had no water to harness it. Farmers died in numbers and still the state presents itself with a staggering GDP of two digit second best in India and you say – Bihar is a disgrace they can never come forward, it is a hoax a political hoax....


Wake up buddies the curtains have started coming down.


You talk about growth hear it - ask how much growth Laloo Yadav brought in Bihar in the two decades he reared his stomach in Bihar. Ask what greatness he brought by preventing any MNC, BPOs or KPOs in Bihar. I would say he did not do much in those years but made them sustainable and self made.


The Biharis were never given the opportunity to interact to outside world and here they stand self sufficiently built. So well Laloo Yadav did not actually take everything from Bihar, he gave them the wisdom to move on in light of deep hegemony of riot, pandemonium and unruly circumstance, and autocratic anarchy. He gave them the mindset to face blindness in light and dark alike.


He gave them the grace. Laloo brought with himself the age of the low castes and here I contemplate the results. Laloo brought in equality. Laloo gave the untouchable the mind to think- the want to learn the happiness of work. Laloo gave the upper class the age of their demise, the feeling that they are nothing but equal to every other Bihari. I would always speak yes Laloo you brought equality whatever may have been your reasons. That is equality is what is speaking out right now!!!


And the county you gave the bounding to every Bihari to be one and together. India you gave the reason to every Bihari to stand up together and live together.


Yes Biharis works like your slaves, yes Bihari works likes your servants but let the state give them the chance- they will sweep back everything that were showering elsewhere and come back to their dear state which had previously left them with not options but to vacate.


Bal Thackeray: Mumbai is not a dharamsala that anyone comes, spits, leaves. Good God! Is that what Bal Thackeray does in dharamsalas? HaHaHaHa.....
