Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

From Inter-Pol to Inter-Mil ?


From  Inter-Pol   to   Inter-Mil  ?

Over the past 100 years, countries of the World have instituted quite a few organizations to deal with international issues . These include :

*    United Nations ( earlier, League of Nations ) and its various arms
*    World Bank
*    International Monetary Fund  (  IMF  )
*    World Trade Organization  ( WTO - earlier , UNCTAD )
*    International Court of Justice - Hague
*    Atomic Inspection Agency
*    Environment Protection Agency
and ,
*   International Police ( Inter-Pol )

During the past decade, the World is facing another major international threat to civilization

It is " Terrorism "

" Terrorism " is characterized as follows :

*     Distinct from
       #     Internal conflicts / civil wars , within a nation's boundaries
       #     Localized commotions / disobedience / militancy , within a country
       #     Breakdown of " Law and Order " situations , inside a country
       #     Country's citizens trying to overthrow an oppressive dictatorship / military rule
*    Spread across international borders
*    Unrelated to any geographical / territorial disputes between countries
*    Hiding under fundamentalist ideologies that disregard human rights
*    Trying to overthrow democratically elected legitimate popular governments
*    Killing innocent citizens
*    Poisoning the minds of Youth with hatred for certain peace-loving / non-violent religions
      or philosophies
*    Recruiting children / women as shields against reprisals by legitimate authorities
*    Glorifying suicidal attacks while bombing peaceful gathering of people
*    Aided and abated by black money / arms , from sympathizers everywhere

Of course , this is not a comprehensive definition of " Terrorism " , but it is good enough for UN to adopt it right away

And it is high time , UN forms, along the lines of Inter-Pol ,
Inter- Mil  ( International Military )

And lay down clear and unambiguous rules under which :

*   Any country affected by terrorism, can seek intervention / help from Inter-Mil ,
OR
*   UN itself may take suo moto cognizance of such terrorism anywhere in the World ( and
     not only confined to the territory of a Member Country ) , and act on its own
     to press Inter-Mil into service , to eliminate terrorists and their supporters
    Such unilateral action on part of the Security Council , will not require any " Invitation /
    Permission " from countries affected , nor can such Security Council Resolution be vetoed

I request the readers to " Like / Share / Re-tweet / Forward " this message to policy-makers / opinion-makers , all over the World
