I bet a majority of the people in the world would agree with me when I say America is not the greatest country in the world. There once used to be a phase when America used to take the stance as a global leader and contributed a lot to Science and Medicine. Well, the leader part has faded away and the other parts are getting shared with other countries of the world. To put this in American's tongue, I would produce this video clip from the TV series The Newsroom.
Driving a recent incident into the consideration, I would highlight the Devyani Khobragade's incident. The way a Deputy Consular General was treated in New York was very shameful. Strip-Searching a woman is not good, let alone be it for visa fraud. What were the cops trying to find on her body? They need to comply with certain level of respect towards diplomats from a Friendly Nation. Do Americans even understand the term "Friendly Nation"! I don't think so. American diplomats have been provided special privilege in India in terms of airport passes, tax-free liquor import, etc. till very recently but now have got them stripped off. This position should have been taken much earlier and India should have shown that it is not any inferior country anymore. It has its strengths and its weaknesses and is rising but no country has any right to undermine its respect. Soon after this conflict, even smaller African countries like Dogo have started accepting India's terms of releasing the Indian sailor from its prison which it kept on denying from the past 6 months. India should now start establishing its terms on the world.
America calls itself to be a very peace-loving country but it is always the first one to initiate any dispute ranging from the nuclear missiles to Syria case. Why was Obama given a Nobel Peace prize on the first hand?? It was America who placed its military forces in the region.
Well, I have another video from America's leading news channel Fox News which talks about the very things of Syria case and how Obama is a big loser and is doing all this but doesn't realize that it was all to benefit Al Qaeda. Must Watch. Till end.
