Dvija Jee: New Indian Political Science – Lesson#01
From the Blog Pak1stanfirstcom - Dvija Jee: New Indian Political Science – Lesson#01 November 17th, 2010 By: DVIJA JEE While government officials in Washington and London are busy pushing India to become a certified new Anglo-Saxon 'slave-soldier' in Asia, political scientists at Harvard and Oxford are watching another development: the addition of a new chapter in political science. It is being written by India. During the good old days, everyone knew that a superpower emerged, grew, blossomed and made its presence felt. Alexander the Great challenged and usurped power. Genghis Khan conquered. So did David and Solomon, Richard the Lion Heart, the magnificent Saladin, Mohamed the Conqueror and Chairman Mao. The last of the great conquerors, Napoleon and Hitler, used brute force. Japan and China emerged in the same basic way that powerful nations did and do throughout history. In India's case, it's Politics 9.0, or Call-Center 101. A new concept in emerging national power. It goes something like this: Spend your billions in buying rusty Russian aircraft carriers and subs, Israeli reconnaissance equipment, American sponsorship and shoulders, and airtime on CNN for 'Incredible India' adverts. Hide the fact that you are home to 21st century's first two genocides . . While at it, ignore that you are also home to the world's biggest systematic gang-rape of women by an organized army. It's 'Ape America' superpower. There are film industries everywhere in the world. But only the Indians call theirs 'Bollywood' after America's Hollywood. Never mind that you have the world's largest pool of poverty and disease waiting for those billions on weapons to come its way. But that doesn't matter. Let's all sing, shake our booties and do 'synchronized-dance'. India is a superpower, riding Am-Brit shoulders, preparing to take on China. Pakistan First
