THE THIRD WORLD WAR – HOW? .... WHY? ....

War cannot decide who is right…

It only decides who is left.

This work with contents that make us aware of the horrific ravine of war, also echoes a similar sentiment. Titled ‘The Third World War’, authored by Dr. Aniruddha Dhairyadhar Joshi, it is a collection of a series of studied and thoughtful articles that appeared in the columns of the daily, ‘Pratyaksha’. The work does not dwell only on the causes and the possibilities of war; it also discusses several issues that are, as a matter of fact, real, a part of History. Moreover, the common person, not necessarily acquainted with the details, the events and the causes lying behind these and especially in so coherent a manner, should indeed read the work.

“There is no doubt that over the next twenty to twenty-five years, conflict will become an aspect of everyday doings and in every region on earth. Values based on theory or principle will have no place whatsoever in this conflict and ‘the survival of the fittest’ will, on the contrary, be the only commandment. Thus, also political games and secret conspiracies are going to be sure directives; quantitative power that can resort to aggression, violence and extreme ruthlessness are going to prove more dominant and successful in the conflict and for a long time to come.“ These words, part of the prologue, are a strikingly realistic comment on the general circumstances that prevail.

We also become aware that with modern techniques changing the face of war, battles between two nations are no more restricted to the battlefield. Now the fury of war has engulfed every region of every nation. Moreover, all the organizations of the world pretend to fight war under the guise of a dutiful observance of religion though no religion advocates this sort of destruction. War no longer fought between the good and the evil, is but a violent eruption, entirely immoral. Pulling us out of our cozy and secure cocoons, the work bears before us, this and other such blatant realities. This is indeed the strength and this also, the success of the work.

The work makes very profound yet sharp observations about the history of the Jews, the birth of Palestine and Israel, Osama-bin-laden, the Al-Qaeda and other terrorist organizations, the conversion in Africa, Saddam, the I.S.I., the double standards of the U.S.A., Pakistan’s hatred for India and the shelter that it offered to terrorists, Iran and terrorism, the current situation in Bangladesh, Taiwan, Cuba and also in the Indian subcontinent.

By no means, a prediction of the future, this thoughtful presentation of history and the present situation, also gives, to a certain extent, a glimpse of the ‘calendar of the third world war’.

Pure democracy, though capable of watering down the horrors of war, the stream of democratic thought, weakened in most nations due to the struggle for power and blind religious mindsets, is not really going to offer much relief. Yesterday it was a cruel tyrant by the name Hitler; today, it is a Laden, who is going about destroying the world. As for the mastermind behind the third world war, we are in the dark about him, at least as of now.
