♦️😄 International relations: servile alliances — permanent enemy, ally
The India that, as part of the Anglo-American bloc, was an anti-Taliban partner during Hamid Karzai’s rule; the Pakistan that sheltered millions of Afghan refugees and twice helped free Afghanistan from imperial Russia and America — that Pakistan became our enemy when Afghanistan started sheltering the regular attacker TTP, the group that carries out bombings in Pakistani schools and has killed hundreds of children. In the end Pakistan carried out airstrikes in Kabul. India took advantage of the opportunity; the Taliban, who share the Deobandi followers’ ideology, also showed up in the Deobandi country India!
Trump the friend imposed sanctions on 17 Indian institutions and individuals long nurtured against China, as part of raising relations with Pakistan. Maybe (the US) might again seek Pakistan’s help to take control of the Bagram base in Afghanistan!
After Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor and the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Japanese in the American atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, America is now Japan’s main security provider and principal ally.
Although India fought hard to gain independence from Britain, America and Britain are now the closest of friends.
Germany and France, after centuries of numerous wars, are now partners.
Many countries that gained independence from Russia are now its friends.
India and Pakistan (including Bangladesh) are not enemies today, even after centuries of looting, oppression and exploitation under Britain.
Yet India, which every dry season withholds water and then releases it during the monsoon to cause floods, is still our friend — and at the border, like Pakistan, shoots and kills Bangladeshis and is still a friend! Even though their channels are allowed in Bangladesh, our channels are banned in India — and yet they remain friends.
