Terror is the vital element in Taliban’s
regime and its understanding of ruling. Terrorism is
the vital element in TRM but TRM must not be mistaken
for Terrorist Relationship Management even if many a "holier-than-thou"
government has been known to have established
connections with terrorist organizations (hence the
acronym, TRM - Taliban Relationship Management !).
Symptoms of this new political strategy to have links
with terrorists to keep themselves in power, adopted
by many governments the world-over, are organisational
errors, incompetence in governance and failed or
failing institutional infrastructures. From the
perspective of this strategy, terrorism can be
re-defined as failure in administrative will,
willfully allowing errors to creep into important
functions of the state and a sudden incompetence of
law-keepers and intelligent services.
The failure of the most intelligent of intelligent
services in the world, the failure of the most secure
of airport securities in the world is more
unbelievable than even the suddenness of the tragedies.
And more puzzling is America’s cry for vengeance
against Osama Bin Laden, when all the Pentagon had
received was some telephone call which claimed to take
responsibility of the US bombings. The decision to
blame Laden has been done all too much in a hurry. If
Laden’s utterances are carefully scrutinized, anyone
would agree that the man, or the fiend, will rather
act nonchalant than claim any responsibility over a US
tragedy. If anything, Laden claims absolute and total
dislike and hate for anything American and given this
kind of an attitude, would rather rejoice than go
around taking responsibility. Laden is definitely not
suicidal. And why has America chosen Afghanistan as a
case study when the guru of TRM may be in Qatar or
even more simply, may not even have masterminded the
airborne, airlines based attack on America? There is a
need to draw a parallel here (necessitated due to the
persisting and bugging incompetence of an important
government body of India), with the motto of the Delhi
Police which, when unable to capture the real culprit
goes for just about anyone! Has America not the belly,
as suggested in CNN, to find the real
perpetrators?
From the perspective of America’s vow to react with
vengeance, the Taliban is being well-serviced by the
Bush administration, by giving it the necessary
marketing impetus. America's prime enemy, bin Laden,
will be, and must be, more than satisfied with
America's prompt service, which will surely escalate
terror, on a larger scale, around the world, and
America, instead of avenging itself will be playing
proxy terrorists ! Maybe the Bush administration had
pondered too much about the Taliban’s mind-controlling
abilities and have come up with their own masterly
plan of playing mind-games with the terrorists ! This
is not mere conjecture but based on the utterances of
the American President on television, with statements
like "Wanted! Dead or alive !", "The Taliban must,
must take my statement seriously...". Hollywood is
sure to take a lesson or two from the terrorists, on
special effects, and on dialogue writing from the
American president !
All said and done, network management, which is the
core of any terrorist group, cannot be, without
effective communication (to keep the human network
up-to-date) and, ironically, communication modes and
nodes are government controlled the world-over ! So,
are governments lending out communication nodes to
this barbaric, network of inhumans ? That a barbaric
and insane network of humans exists in our world (numbering
over a hundred thousand) is for real but how is this
network to be tackled, if the world’s superpower has
been struck by it. And if governments' help to
terrorists is an accepted fact, how is America's war
against terror to be interpreted ? As a war
against terrorist- linked nations or as a war against
plain terrorists in sporty beards and machine guns ?
And if the former, why is Pakistan, a renowned
terrorist-supporting country being accorded so many
grants by both Europe as well as America ? And if the
latter, who is the terrorist going to be ? Somebody
that Israel does not like or somebody that India does
not like or somebody that I don’t like ?!
