It
is a mystery which civilization will ultimately be the one to launch
man to the stars.
Will
it be Euro-America, with its non-existent morality, its declining
population, its diminishing industry, its bankruptcy and its
collapsing social sphere?
Will
it be China, with ITS diminishing population, its polluted
environment, its unstable and rebellious peasants, its lack of
resources and its suffocating Marxist government?
Will
it be the Muslim World, with its new brand of murderous
fundamentalism, collapsing social and economic conditions, and its
new found suppression of knowledge and education?
Will
it be Latin America, with its teeming masses, its poverty, its
instability, its corruption and its great division between rich and
poor?
...or
will it be India?
Unlike
the other civilizations, India is showing the first signs of a
developing and advanced civilization.
Not
just technologically, mind you, but where it counts: socially and
psychologically.
Technology
matters little if a civilization is psychologically and morally
under-developed.
We
all know what the great civilization of Britain did at Hamburg and
Dresden.
We
all know what the great civilization of America did to the Native
Americans...and at Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
The
testament of the Soviet slaughter in Afghanistan or the
Chinese-sponsored Cambodian genocide and the mass murder at Tienamen
puts the development of those two societies in doubt. Not to mention
Russia's collapse back into a mafioso state and China's step back
into virtual feudalism.
Or
how about the enlightened slaughter of whales and dolphins carried
out by technologically advanced Japan?
To
put it lightly, Hamburg, Dresden, Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Afghanistan,
Tienamen, dead whales and dolphins put the moral, psychological and
moral development of all these societies at about the level of the
STONE AGE.
To
an extent they are all murderous and continue to be murderous with
their philosophies of abortion, concepts of MAD (mutually assured
destruction) and euthanasia, their slaughter of animals friendly to
man, murderous occupation of foreign lands (look at Palestine, Iraq,
Afghanistan, Tibet), their poisonous medicine, and their bloody
media.
Socially,
psychologically and morally they are all backward.
Now
imagine a cave man with an iPhone.
What
do you think could happen there?
Would
it be a surprise if it he ended up BREAKING it?
The
one civilization, on the other hand, that is showing the moral and
psycho-social advancement that could lead to a great space-going
civilization in the future...is India.
Not
at the lower ranks, mind you.
India
still has its problems of poverty, socioeconomic segregation and wife
burning (of all things), but at the top levels (where it counts)
India is showing signs of an enlightenment which could propel it
toward a bright future as a bright example to the entire world.
Morally,
psychologically and socially...India is beginning to shine.
You
need those three building blocks to propel any civilization to
greater heights.
Amongst
all the existing civilizations presently on the face of the earth,
India is perhaps the only one putting it on display.
Let
me explain.
INDIA
RESPECTS HUMAN CULTURE
Amongst
the Andaman Islands of the Indian Ocean is an isolated spot of earth
called North Sentinel Island.
400
tribesmen live there perpetually suspended in their Stone Age culture
neither knowing nor wanting to know of the outside world.
Visits
by outsiders (mostly from helicopters) are met with hails of stones
and arrows.
As
recently as 2006, two Indian fishermen were killed when they ventured
on its coasts.
What
did the Indian government do?
Did
they launch a giant SWAT raid?
Did
they land the marines?
No.
India
declared North Sentinel Island off limits - a sovereign entity under
the protection of the Indian government off limits to the rest of the
world.
Again,
what did the Indian government do?
It
respected the wishes and the sovereignty of human beings inhabiting
that island and left them in peace...and protected that peace.
What
would the West have done?
Send
in a platoon of Marines guarding a well meaning group of scientists
and psychologists perhaps?
Within
a decade those tribesmen would have been exterminated by way of the
soft-kill methods of culture kill, public education, media, booze,
vaccination and junk food.
No,
powerful India saw and respected the value of human will and human
sovereignty.
It
left the islanders and their world to themselves...and protected
them.
Again,
what would the 'well-meaning' West have done?
We
can't help ourselves.
We
would have forced ourselves on those natives, forced them to see the
outside, forced them to see us and accept us...and probably destroyed
their way of life (which we would have already condemned as
undesirable).
That's
what WE would have done.
INDIA'S
NUCLEAR POLICY: COMMON SENSE OVER NIHILISM
Another
indicator of India's advancement is its practice of 'minimum nuclear
deterrence' (just enough nukes to create a deterrent) and its policy
to never use nuclear weapons first.
In
other words, India is ready to accept defeat on the battlefield
without resorting to nuclear weapons (compare this to NATO's policy
of immediate use of nuclear weapons should the front begin to
collapse).
A
radar malfunction will never trigger Armageddon between India and
some unfortunate country because India will wait until the tracking
of incoming nuclear weapons and their detonation on Indian territory
confirms that India has indeed been attacked with nuclear weapons.
Compare
this to Russia and America's policy of instant retaliation as soon as
any indication of preparing to launch or indications of initial
launch and America and Russia's policy of preemptive nuclear attack.
Unlike
the rest of the world, India knows and respects nuclear weapons.
They
understand both sides will lose and has done everything possible to
not only avoid triggering nuclear war but prevent over-kill should it
ever happen.
Compare
THAT to the rest of the world.
But
the evolution of Indian government policy does not end there.
INDIA'S
RESPECT FOR ANIMAL LIFE
India
has taken a step in not only having, but acting on compassion for the
few sea mammals who share a close kinship with mankind - dolphins.
Dolphins
are not normal sea creatures.
Despite
the enormity of the ocean, somehow they relate to man.
The
come close to him in the open ocean.
Stories
are legion of dolphins coming to the rescue when they see a human
drowning and pulling the unfortunate ashore.
Dolphins
approach boats in open sea just to be close to their pilots.
A
Dolphin is not just an animal.
It
has a special affinity with mankind.
And
the feeling is mutual.
People
in general have a special affection for dolphins.
India
has taken unashamed note of this special bond and has ACTED on it.
It
has declared the dolphin a 'non-human person' and has granted them
rights and protection.
Dolphins
will no longer be victimized, hunted or captured in Indian waters.
The breeding and capture of dolphins for exhibition will no longer be
allowed.
India
has acknowledged the uniqueness of the dolphin and has used its power
to protect it.
Compare
this to Japan's and Denmark's inexplicably cruel
government-subsidized hunting of dolphins (a creature that innocently
approaches its killers!)
India,
unlike 'advanced' Japan and 'sophisticated' Denmark has called the
hunting of dolphins murder and their abuse victimization..and, as a
civilization, has acted on it.
What
a futuristic and positive concept that is.
But
India's future prospects do not rely solely on the social and moral
principles of tis government.
INDIA'S
PROFESSIONAL MILITARY
India
has a quietly respectable army, composed of professional, capable and
brave soldiers, whose capabilities have not been trumpeted simply
because India is not a militaristic country.
The
Indian Army's actions in the Indo-Pakistani Wars have been anything
but incompetent against a well-armed and tough opponent.
Recently
Indian pilots quietly thrashed American F-15 pilots in the COPE India
2004 war games (the details of the 'results' of these war games are
still very hard to decipher) in which American fighter jocks were
distinctly humbled.
Indian
occupation of the disputed Kashmir region (despite Muslim propaganda
to the contrary) has been surprisingly soft-handed (i.e. professional
and civilized) despite a steady flow of casualties inflicted by
Muslim guerrillas on the Indian Army.
Compare
that to OUR occupation of Iraq, or, for that matter, Afghanistan...or
the continued drone massacres in Pakistan.
INDIA'S
BRILLIANCE
Last
but not least, India has a precious deposit of human resource (the
same type of human resource that made Japan a great power).
India
has the brains to make it big.
Its
scientists, doctors, researchers and engineers are world renown.
Indian
scientists and engineers are not only good, but brilliant...and
ingeniously creative. They are sought after internationally and put
to work in cutting edge industries.
In
America it has become an embarrassment to see how many of our top
scientific positions in research and development have been taken by
Indian scientists (same in Europe).
India's
unfortunate socialist-imposed economy has not created a job market
for its huge brain trust, so most of its talent is exported instead
of used at home.
But
in the future, should India organize its economy to fully utilize its
talent, Indian technical progress will not only thrive, but
skyrocket!
It
could very well be that in the distant future, it will be Indian core
civilization which will launch man towards the stars.
So
if you want to see a future...a positive and brilliant future...
...the
civilizations of the world might very well start looking towards the
rising star of India.
