One lie leads to thousands of other, fits well on the US, which promotes its own avowed national interests in the name of democracy, humanity, freedom of speech and enlightenment. At times, the policy-makers in Washington have to go for difficult choices when national interests land in head on collision with their avowed values.

The only snag in this game of choices is the emerging radicalism in the lands of Islam whose young ones are yet not able to cope with new realities in international relations. Swayed by verbosity of violent speeches  by hot-tempered firebrand Mullah, the naives become fodder to terrorist monsters like Al-Qaeda and its likes.

However, the problem with the West as well as the US is that it still  cannot  differentiate between the terrorist organizations and the organizations working only for their national security, peace and stability in the lands of Islam.

Whereas, Mosad does not prick the conscience of the West and it is alright to support Mujahideen-e-Khalq, erstwhile anti-Iran terrorist organization which not long ago had been banned by the US and is still mentioned among the terrorist organizations, the US is disturbed by the existence of Hizbullah in Lebanon that has overriding public backing in Lebanon and has substantial representation in Lebanese Parliament. The West does not trust and is uncomfortable with Iran that has held  many elections and presently has a very popular President who has come  into power after defeating a seasoned politician and former President who  had served the country twice.

This is because, Iran as well as Hezbollah do not believe in the Western philosophy of life and are rather an obstruction to the US to realize its so- called Middle East agenda.

However, that‘s not all. Zionism whose goals are also to be met. Zionist lobbies in the US have hijacked the policy-making echelons in the US power corridors and are virtually calling the shot around the world. To realize their objective they have rolled in an anti oil-chock strategy that will offset the impact of any crisis in the Middle East on oil prices as well as on its delivery to the West. While doing so the US is compromising on all principles it has been promoting all over the world: democracy, human right, peace and stability.

The US is focusing attention on central Asia for uninterrupted oil flow to the North so that abiding dependence on ME oil is strategically reduced to bearable level so that whenever the Zionist grand plan is rolled in the West can offset the impact of oil-flow-chock.

The West cannot and will not abandon the ME as long as Israel stays  there which despite Mr Ahmedinejad’s ill-timed call for its elimination is  about to stay for foreseeable future until the entire composition of  international relations goes under some gigantic change. As long as all  riches fly out to North, it will never happen. It will need super human  effort on the part of South to substantiate enough gravity to keep its riches within its bounds to serve its own starving humanity.

Scale of contradiction is wide however in specifies it is narrow,  myopic,  treacherous, inhuman and debased as the act of any third grade unscrupulous thief.

Despite all claim on democracy and human right the US has different democracy  agenda in Central Asia. It clamours for democracy in countries that have signed friendship pact with Moscow.

By not following the American line in Central Asia Uzbek President  Islam  Karimov, is under heavy criticism. He is being branded as the most ruthless ruler in the region. Because he has ordered the US forces out of an air base they had used for operations in Afghanistan since 2001.

He was acceptable until that time he realized that American presence in the region was no good omen for regional peace. President Bush has repeatedly pledged to “stand with dissidents and exiles against oppressive regimes” whereas in Central Asia, to replay the Middle East  strategy of 50s he is supporting the most oppressive regimes of the region: that too only for oil.

Bush cannot lose Azerbijan, for whatever moral cost. Baku-Tbilisi-eyhan pipeline, that will carry 1 million barrels a day from the Caspian Sea to Turkey’s  Mediterranean Coast, will be inaugurated shortly. The 1,100-mile route has a great strategic significance. It avoids unstable Russia to the north and hostile Iran to the south and it offers the West an important source of non-OPEC energy.

Further, it is a great stand in for the US to have a friendly regime in the North of Iran and Afghanistan.

The US is trying everything at hand to settle its foothold deeper in Central Asia. A mendacious CIA sponsored propaganda campaign against US unfriendly governments is unleashed and so-called independent civic groups, free-media and opposition political parties are supported in the name of democracy.

The problem is that the US does not want such peaceful revolutions that have swept Ukraine, Georgia and Kyrgyzstan because popular government is a sure recipe for resistance to exploitation. So it is alright to keep people under the yokes of its chosen men in the name of democracy, free speech and liberty.
