Caught In Between A Cat & Dog Fight

Well this very much may seem absurd but the current cats & dogs in the world according to me are just Russia & America(USA).

If we just take a look back at history or any place or country on this earth, there is nothing as powerful & dominating as the superpowers as they are still known. They had allied with major nations especially during the World Wars 1 & 2. They still continue to exert their power & pressurise governments into obeying their orders or prepare to face a battle ahead of no time.

Our world revolves around them, their policies, their people, their government, their companies, & their revenues soar high. While the rest of the world can lie pretty much in a stagnant position and under their feet being crushed whenever we plan to raise our heads.

The Afghanistan Issue

Land occupied by the then Soviet Union & which kicked of the mujahiden movement or rather Holy Warriors. America found its itch in Asia & backed the Taliban with ammunitions especially Stinger missiles which costs approximately 15 lacs INR a piece. just to get rid of the Soviets as they already had a cold war going. Well they did get liberated from the Soviets, all good for the Americans to visit once more in 2003 to hunt the shadowed Bin Laden.

The Korean Issue

As of now, when we speak of Korea, we actually refer to Seoul or rather South Korea. Korea was once a big nation that was once dominated by the communists backed by China, Russia & the other part a small majority in the south by America & its allies for liberalisation. The North Koreans or Communists were sure to capture the whole country & make it under one rule, when once again America found its tongue tied with communism & its effects of world domination, launched a full scale war against the communists & well they won but once again the country remains divided with one reaping the benefits of globalisation while the other not knowing when will be their next meal.

The Vietnam Issue

Once again, Communists v/s the Liberalists or Viet Cong, North Vietnam & South Vietnam as it was earlier known during the war, the communists were at a break even point when the Americans started pumping even more aid into fighting off the communists backed with Russian weapons. Sadly, it was too late, the communists finally defeated the American forces & the other rebels & took over the entire nation now known as Vietnam.

The India & Pakistan Issue

India was backed by Russia during the war between the two divided south Asian countries, & of course Pakistan was getting aid in dollars for the war against India along with subsidized weapons from the Americans. Sadly, the Kashmir issue still remains unsolved & the longest after the middle east crisis.

The Iraq & Georgia Issue

We all know about the Iraq issue being the most highly publicised war ever. Charges of weapons of mass destruction were laid & the country was invaded for its reserves at the end.
Georgia, a country bordering Russia where tensions grew among the separatists groups invited Russia into a war which ended quickly not without still occupying two Georgian territories.


There are more than a dozen wars related to these superpowers all for greed and land expansion. They would do anything to increase, broaden & widen their authority & governance over any territory & if it is going to reap a fortune from snatching away its resources is all the more good.

In their fight, many countries loose their very existence & heritage, one is poor, the other is rich, one cannot feed his entire family & the other can have a party every weekend.

This is what the world has come to with all of us being disillusioned & clouded by the very supporters of freedom as they say which let us kill one of our own.

We fail to realize the very essence of our livelihood & just follow as we are told or act impulsively & this is the reason for discomfort, sadness, tears & death that still pile up until today forgetting the fact that we live in the 21st century of lightning speed communication & digital coverage but Peace is not well known by many of us.


Eye for an eye is not the solution but it very much pleases & satisfies our selfish objectives.....
