Who is the terrorist?

How the civilised world is adopting terrorism on an international scale is a point to ponder. After the World War-II the European side lost power in Africa, Asia and Indonesia. The British gave independence to India and Pakistan but deliberately made Kashmir a bone of contention between the tow countries. They created Israel and made the Arabs to be exiled from Palestine. Recently America and Britain have killed thousands of unarmed Afghans men, women and children. The so-called big powers have started state terrorism around the globe. They have categorised the freedom fighters to be terrorists. As a retaliation measure the Palestinian Arabs have started suicide missions and are killing the Jews. They should honour the fundamental rights of the people. By the use of force, India will never have full control over Kashmir.

It is high time that the America and British should discharge their responsibility to restore human rights. America should adopt the policy of “live and let live” and give up its aggressive designs. The British should also not blindly support the Americans in all their military actions. India must also stop aggression against the Kashmiri freedom fighters. Better late than never, if they really want to maintain peace in the world. It is no good to use might to capture the world in the name of war against terrorism.
