Nuclear dialectics

Nuclear dialectics



Troubled Galaxy Destroyed Dreams: Chapter 13

The idea that history is a dialectic, or continuing conflict, between two opposites - capitalism and communism, or Christianity and Islam, or liberalism and conservatism. Each of these struggles succeeds the other as a historical imperative. No doubt experts can summarise this better.
I note only that I was told recently that the Labour government has no historical meaning because it doesn't define itself in opposition to anything. He said this as a critique of the government, but relying slyly on the Marxist assumption that history really is structured like this. And this was accepted by everyone else in the group. Anyone who wanted to argue back preferred to challenge on whether the government really is in opposition to something, instead of the much more important point of whether the grounds of the argument are valid.

dialectic
Greek term, originally associated with the philosopher Socrates' method of argument through dialogue and conversation. Hegelian dialectic, named after the German philosopher Hegel, refers to an interpretive method in which the contradiction between a thesis and its antithesis is resolved through synthesis.


Leaders of Left parties, who have strongly opposed the implementation of the Indo-US nuclear deal, have started receiving hate mail.

Continuing a static stand on the Indo-US nuclear deal, CPM on Saturday said that deal is a cover to promote strategic ties with United States.The party said that Congress and UPA are propagating N-deal as an answer to the energy crisis in the country, which is not true.CPM accused Congress of running a massive disinformation campaign that nuclear deal is essential to India.

Mind you, the left parties are always habitual to threat the Centre to implement its agenda. Prakash karat and company have been posing for withdrawal of support for the first day of the Manmohan Government. It has never happened. Manmohan economics has herald the Liberalisation, Privatisation and globalisation age for Indian Nation. it is no secret that this Prim minister and his Gang is planted by Washington and all of them have been the declared slaves of world Bank. An elite Brahmin from West Bengal who was the number two in Indira cabinet during Soviet Model of development and Socialism plus Poverty eradiction days turned the most authentic agent of corporate US Colonisation. yes, Pranab Mukherjee, the best friend of Indian communists happens to be the de facto Prime minister, heading thirty nine parliamentary committees and executing all the policy decisions. What if Manmohan resigns! The Marxist wil get their Man in helms. The parliament is run by another Brahmin, though Marxist, Somnath Chatterjee!



The Zionist Brahmin White Global strategic alliance depends so much so on Indo US nuclear deal that it overlaps the Inflation rates, Economic Disasters, Recession, Middle East stand off, Palestine crisis and even the rise of Barrack Obama!

The allies of the Congress are stepping up efforts to broker a peace between the UPA and the Left.The DMK chief, M Karunanidhi met the CPM chief Prakash Karat in Chennai on Sunday.

The Left continues to maintain its tough posturing that it will be forced to withdraw support to the UPA Government if the Centre went ahead with the nuclear deal.

That could mean early elections, which several allies are against.


Over half of the American Whites consider presumptive Democratic Presidential candidate Barack Obama as a ‘risky’ choice for the White House, whereas two-thirds believe McCain as a ‘safe’ pick, a new survey has revealed. The survey by The Washington Post/ABC News also opens up apprehensions of the race factor being whipped up by white supremist groups as a way to stop the Illinois Senator and the first African American from entering the White House.

The survey has shown that over half of Whites called 46-year-old Obama a ‘risky’ choice for the top post, while two-thirds said McCain is a ‘safe’ pick -- 43 per cent of the Whites said Obama has sufficient experience to serve effectively as president, and about two in 10 worry he would over-represent the interests of African Americans.

Most of the Indians would hate to see Barrack Obama in White House. The Hindus, always hate the Black Untouchables. Even, the Mahatma Mohan das Karam Chand Gandhi helped the White Government in repression of the Black Movement in South Africa! He was the man who ensured the transfer of Power to the Brahmins in Independent India.

It is a Nuclear Stand Off, of course thanks to the hypocrite, betraying Brahminical Communists in India!



CPIM may not afford earlier elections after the results of Panchayat elections in West Bengal. a damage control mobilisation is on with the latest phase of Gorkhaland movement led by Bimal Gurung to evoke violent Aamra Baangali Brand Bengali communalism consolidating Marxist vote bank, eroded with Nandigram Singur uprising and revolt of traditional Muslim and Dalit votes. CPIM is not very well in Kerala also.Other constituents of UPA government are afraid of elections simply because of Price rise and Petro crisis. Congress understands this and playing the trump card to push the US agenda of strategical realignment in the Indian Ocean region with this bloody Nuclear deal!

CPIM has not clanged its Marxist capitalist ways. Pet economists and media are engaged to prove that the Election Debacle is nothing to do with indiscriminate Industrialisation and urbanisation. Retail Chains are switched on. Salem is still waiting in the wings. Chemical Hub and nuclear plan happen to be the topmost priority of Buddhadeb Government. They try their best to reorganise the Gestapo and tame the rebels with the maximum hype of Bengali Communalism! Rather the Marxists are doing everything to reverse the Land Reforms. land acquisition is on. SEZ drive is not withdrawn. MNCs and Investment abroad, IT and outsourcing, privatisation of production systems and services intensified. Hire and fire goes on. latest move is the arrangement of commercial taxation in irrigation! On these lines, the Marxist opposition of Indo US Nuclear deal si nothing but simple rhetoric of Autocratic democracy! Nothing else!

Marxist have to pose as the fiercest crusaders against US Imperialism still engaged in Muslim annihilation, so called War Agianst Terrorism. It has to pose as the security umbrella for the minorities, say Muslims against RSS brand fascist Hindutva. It is the obligation of Majoritarian election system to have blocks of castes and communities, minorities to have a workable majority for state power!

Meanwhile, another dimension of the got up game of Gorkhaland is exposed as the Gorkha Janmukti Morcha (GJM), spearheading an agitation for a separate Gorkhaland state, relaxed its indefinite Bandh in the Darjeeling hills for 60 hours beginning this evening even as it decided to send two teams to talk to the West Bengal government as well as the Centre.
GJM general secretary Roshan Giri said while the date of visit of the team bound for Kolkata has not been decided yet, the team for Delhi would leave tomorrow.



The gist of the Titanic War may be described as Nuclear Dialectics which is targeted to a favourable vote bank mobilisation. All political parties are playing the game including Mayawati, the Dalit Icon and Karunanidhi, the Dravid DOn!

We have to enjoy the drama of Nuclear Dialectics until elections are declared or President George butcher Bush steps down! The Indian Ruling Class is doing its best to lobby for a Republican Win once again as the Republican Presidential candidate Mc Cain is considered the best friend of Shining Sensex Manusmriti India! It is the Castism inherited by the fascist Hindutva based on enslavement of all the indigenous people and nationalities, the black untouchables, inherent inequality and continuous persecution and repression, continuous displacement and deprivement, which ignites the Indian Apartheid against a possible black democrate President in the Oval House. World bank slaves rule India and the colonisation is complete with the classic betrayals by the Brahminacal Indian communists, socialists and Gandhian all working together in the best Interest of Corporate Imperialism, the Post Modern Manusmriti Galaxy Order!

The stalemate between the government and Left parties showed no signs of resolution as the CPI(M) maintained its hard line on the nuclear agreement with the United States and the UPA coalition suffered another jolt when BSP withdrew its support to it. Government's chief negotiator on the deal, External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee, who left for Australia , met Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and apprised him of his discussions with the Left parties and UPA constituents on the stand-off.Hectic activities are expected to resumed when Mukherjee returns from his visit on June 24, a day ahead of the next crucial meeting of the UPA-Left Committee on nuclear deal.

Compared to the frenetic pace of consultations between government, UPA constituents and Left parties in the last few days, there was lull till today.

NCP spokesperson D P Tripati called on CPI(M) General Secretary Prakash Karat in New Delhi while his party boss Sharad Pawar said in Pune that Left parties do not want to push the UPA government over the brink.Pawar said there are signs of finding a way out of the current impasse over the contentious Indo-US nuclear deal.

However, the CPI(M) issued a strong statement accusing the government of mounting a "massive disinformation campaign" to promote a "bad" nuclear deal, which it said, was only a cover to promote strategic ties with the US.

"Mythical energy claims are being made in order to promote a bad nuclear deal. Energy is just a cover. The real intent is India-US strategic ties," it said.

The party also accused the government of "dragging its feet" on the Iran gas pipeline project "at the behest of the US and in consideration of the Hyde Act".


I am lucky to have an encounter with a Marxist Gestapo lieutenant. Hardly twenty three years old. he visited my house having stumbled with some sites containing my write ups.

He introduced himself as a CITU trade union district leader.

`You are using your writeup full of venom against the Communists’, he directly charged.

`I never write against Communism. Rather I don`t consider the Indian Communist or Marxist leaders as communists. I am convinced that none of them believe in Marxist ideology anymore,’ i had to explain.

I appreciate the zeal and energy of the young man who tried his best to convince me the ways and obligations of Marxist capitalism. he debated violently . But I escaped unhurt.

He discussed the recent developments and analysed everything with accuracy. I realised that the man has got relevant informations. He pointed out the stagnation after land reforms and rural development. He also analysed the strategic set up and socio economic system. he recognised the facts of Nandigram and Singur Insurrections.

Then he tried his best to justify the gestapo culture. According him, sate power has to be the topmost priority. You may not go very far with the rotten ideology. You have to depend on the MNCs, Muscle Power, Police, Hooligans, goons, Promoters, Builders. Thus, the Hegemony is defended.

` You won`t win a single election with all those ideological hurdles’, he declared.

`I understand your stand. But you may not ensure any support base for the party. If you want to hold on Power, you have to adopt the ways of the Ruling Class. You have to align with the Global Order. You may not go against this. ‘

`Indian communists have grown up.Days of Telengana are long over. Over are the days of USSR. China has opened the Great walls. But we are winning elections in West Bengal and Kerala because we learnt to adjust with demanding time.’

` Human rights violations are wrong. SEZ drive is wrong. Chemical Hub is hazardous. Nuclear plants would undermine the land an the environment. everything is true. But we may not escape the urgency emphasised by the global ruling class’.

He warned me to restrain myself in my write ups.

`all this criticism is unwanted and irrelevant,’ he declared.

He was honest enough and told everything what the Indian communist Leadership would deny and quote Ideology instantly with betraying stance.

This episode in my personal life provides me a rare insight to analyse the on going Nuclear Stand Off. I understand the psyche of the Marxists who want to be in power and are very keen to have share in power all India level. The comrade visiting my home, did not say anything about the Brahminical Tie Up and the demographical politics and the continuous enslavement of indigenous people. The Marxists have to do everything to defend the interests of the Indian Brahminical ruling Class which are ultimately the interests of the United States of America.

I remember those days of reading Che`s diary or Red book. Those were the days of Thundering Spring. I was involved with so many of the Naxalites escaping from the repression in West Bengal. I shared their experiences and also shared their dreams. Chhoto Kaka has given me a copy of the Bengali translation of `Mother’, written by Maxim Gorky while I was still reading in Primary school.

I did not witness the Dhimri Block betrayal. But I witnessed the follow up. I witnessed the trial in the court . I felt the disillusionment of my father.

IN Zila Parishad High school, Prem Prakash Budhlakoti explained the Marxist ideology.

But Tara Chandra Tripathi was the man who guided me in systematic study of Marxism. It began with Communist Manifesto followed by Study circle book list. During our graduation days we read all the relevant classics, political ideologies and theories, economics and of course, Das Capital. It helped me to break the jinx of Telengana and Dhimri Block. i have not given up my imaginations and dreams even after my horrifying experiences in West Bengal. Saving communist movement being the agenda, we have to stand united with the indigenous people and production system, we have to be ecological activists, we have to break up the Harmonies as soon as possible. We have to resist Imperialism and globalisation. We have to defend the Nature, Natural resources and mankind.

Thus, we have no option but to expose the hypocrite and betraying Brahminical communist leadership in India!


At a time when the CPM top brass in Delhi has renewed its threat to withdraw support to the UPA government amid the standoff over the nuclear deal, CPM veteran Jyoti Basu on Friday evaded a question on the issue, but said the Left had not changed its stand.

Asked whether the CPM would pull the plug on the Congress-led UPA government, Mr Basu dodged a direct reply, but said: “The Left parties are sticking to their stand on the issue of the Indo-US nuclear deal. I have been told that the Congress is trying to evolve a compromise formula. But I don’t know what that will be and I also don’t know what will happen to this government ultimately.”

Mr Basu was talking to newspersons after attending the CPM state secretariat meeting at the party headquarters on Alimuddin Street on Friday. The CPM top brass in Delhi stressed that they would withdraw support to the UPA government if it took the next step to finalise the India-specific safeguard agreements with the IAEA.

The West Bengal CPM, it is learnt, does not want any immediate Lok Sabha elections as the party has suffered an electoral setback in the May panchayat elections in the state.

On the other hand, Defence Minister A K Antony has been roped in for all political discussions over the India-US civil nuclear deal on Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's request, Congress sources said on Sunday.

According to the sources, Manmohan Singh told Congress president Sonia Gandhi on Wednesday that he wanted Antony to join the negotiations held with the Left parties, rather than entrust the task exclusively to External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee.

Since then, the Defence Minister has been present in almost all the known meetings Mukherjee has had with leaders of the Left and the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) allies over the nuclear issue.

A section of the Congress feels that Mukherjee is seemingly not eager to push the nuclear agreement, an issue close to Manmohan Singh's heart, because the Foreign Minister felt he was ignored in the initial stages of the ambitious agreement. Mukherjee's supporters deny this.

Besides, Mukherjee's rumoured proximity with Communist leaders also has been viewed warily by some Congress leaders. When the Communists backed his name for the post of the president to succeed A P J Abdul Kalam, it raised eyebrows in the Congress.

It is following the request of both the Prime Minister and Sonia that Mukherjee came to head the 15-member UPA-Left committee formed to address concerns raised by the Communists over the nuclear deal.

But Antony's presence, it seems, has not helped Mukherjee to persuade the Communists to give up their opposition to the deal -- so far.

Mukherjee met Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) general secretary Prakash Karat on Monday and Tuesday evenings. But he could not convince Karat into giving a green signal to the government to finalise the India-specific safeguard agreement with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).

It was after this Manmohan Singh called on Sonia and expressed his desire that Antony should be asked to aid Mukherjee in future talks with the Left and other UPA allies.

Antony was present when Mukherjee met Karat for the third time in the week Friday and earlier with CPI-M politburo member Sitaram Yechury.

Antony attended Mukherjee's meetings on Friday with Communist Party of India (CPI) national secretary D Raja, Nationalist Congress Party chief Sharad Pawar and Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Lalu Prasad.

The CPI-M-led Left parties, which prop up the Congress-led Manmohan Singh government, have rejected the government's repeated pleas to allow it to finalise the IAEA safeguards agreement.

After the Wednesday meeting between the Prime Minister and Sonia, the government axed a scheduled meeting of the UPA-Left nuclear committee that had been scheduled for June 25.


Just see this item!

Asking the Congress-led UPA to set its priority on fighting soaring inflation instead of focusing on Indo-US nuclear deal, CPI on Sunday said the central government should not be sacrificed in the name of such an agreement, as nobody wants early polls.

"The priority at this moment is to fight the rising inflation and not the nuclear deal," CPI General Secretary A B Bardhan told reporters on the sidelines of a convention here against POSCO's proposed steel project in Orissa.

"There should not be early elections as nobody favours it except the divisive forces," he said adding, I do not understand as to why the government is in such a hurry to go ahead with the deal.

"After all, the UPA government should realise it is not going to be a deal between Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and President George W Bush but between India and the US," the CPI leader said.

The stand of the Left parties on the nuclear deal was clear, he said adding, they were against the agreement but efforts will be made to "convince UPA during the meeting" on the issue slated on June 25.

And this!

DMK Chief M Karunanidhi said that the unity between the UPA and Left parties should not be disrupted over the latter's opposition to the Indo-US nuclear deal, as it would affect the nation's progress.
Emerging from Karunanidhi's residence after a 40-minute meeting with him and CPI leader D Raja, Karat told reporters that the Chief Minister had told them that the disruption would only pave the way for 'communal forces' to gain the upper hand.

Karat said they had assured Karunanidhi that the Left parties would meet again to find a solution to the Indo-US nuclear deal.

"We will meet Karunanidhi again," he said.

Karat said they had put forth the Left parties' views on the UPA Government's move to go ahead with negotiations with the IAEA board of governors on the safeguards agreement.

"We are against it. We have explained to him our stand.

As a senior leader of the UPA, Karunanidhi will take up the issue with the Congress," he said.

"We have assured him that the Left parties will discuss the matter and come out with a solution," he said.

On the Indo-Pakistan-Iran pipeline, he said, "We want the negotiations to continue so that the deal is completed".


It is the finest form of north Indian folk drama , Nautankee. All characters are coorful and loud.As the stalemate on the India-US nuclear deal continued on Saturday, the CPI(M) accused the UPA government of furthering American interests at a time when inflation has crossed the 11 per cent mark.

The CPI(M) leadership that has led the Left bloc’s tirade against the nuclear deal, said it is “nothing but a cover to promote the strategic ties with the US”. The party also accused the government of “dragging its feet” on the Iran gas pipeline project “at the behest of the US and in consideration of the Hyde Act”.

Meanwhile, Left leaders continued talks with UPA allies. In New Delhi, NCP spokesperson D.P. Tripathi called on CPI(M) General Secretary Prakash Karat and CPI National Secretary D. Raja spoke with DMK chief M. Karunanidhi on the Left’s position on the deal. Raja and Karat are slated to travel to Chennai on Sunday.

“Mythical energy claims are being made in order to promote a bad nuclear deal.
Energy is just a cover. The real intent is India-US strategic ties,” the CPI(M) Central Committee said in a statement.

CC member Nilotpal Basu took a dig at Science and Technology Minister Kapil Sibal, a keen advocate of the deal. “The government is linking nuclear energy with the oil crisis. We do not know if the government has any technology to put uranium directly into the fuel tanks of buses and cars. We might lack in technological knowledge as compared to the Science and Technology Minister,” he said.

Asked to elaborate on why the CPI(M) thought American interests are being pushed, Basu said: “I think the people of the country can draw their own conclusions. Obviously, there are some political interests at play to gain from the strategic alliance with the US.”

Four top Communist leaders -- Prakash Karat and Sitaram Yechury (CPI-M), AB Bardhan and D Raja (CPI) -- have received "death threats" by mail for stopping the Congress-led UPA Government in going ahead with the nuclear deal and "harassing" Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's cabinet.

Sources said, the letter written in incorrect English by one Vinay Kateri from Mumbai has accused the Left leaders of "hijacking" national interests and warned them against "behaving like terrorists." The mail accuses the Left leaders of "hijacking" national interests and warns them against "behaving like terrorists."
The writer also accused them of suffering from "anti-American virus" and said "people of this country are tired with their ... behaviour and harassing (of) the government for the last four-and-a-half years."

Joining the chorus from the Left front to scrap Indo-US nuclear deal, the All India Forward Bloc (AIFB) today called the agreement a threat to the nation's sovereignty.
"The proposed Indo-US civilian nuclear deal is a threat to the national sovereignty and violation of the Common Minimum Programme of the UPA government," AIFB national secretary G Devarajan told party workers here.

The agreement went against the time-tested independent foreign policy of the country, Devarajan said calling upon the people to oppose the deal.

Addressing the AIFB party's foundation day function here, he said all successive governments since independence had failed to resolve the basic problems of the common man such as illiteracy, unemployment, ill-health and inequality.

"The unfinished task of party founder Subhas Chandra Bose in his struggle against imperialism should be carried forward to save the nation from neo-imperialist forces and their Indian agents," he said.



Meanwhile,India has blamed speculators for the price in global oil prices and warned that the country’s economic goals were in “great peril”.


Oil-producing nations must not to remain a "passive spectator of speculation" and should adopt a "price band mechanism" to decrease prices, said Finance Minister P Chidambaram at the meeting of world energy ministers in Jeddah.


"Oil prices threaten to wipe out the economic gains made by developing countries in recent years. The irrational escalation in oil prices is a cause of diversion of cash resources from education, health and other social sector schemes.


"The only way forward is for the both producers and consumers to find common ground. We propose that we adopt a price band mechanism," said Chidambaram.


According to Chidambaram’s proposal petrol-consuming countries will guarantee that oil prices would not fall below an agreed level and producing countries will guarantee that prices would not rise above a guaranteed level.


"In the band between these two levels, let prices be determined by market forces. This is the only way to shelter the world from volatility and unpredictability in oil prices," he said.


India has acquired the capacity to end poverty but global oil prices were endangering it capabilities. "I speak with great anguish because the goals that we have set for ourselves are in great peril," he said.


"Questions have been raised about the fundamentals of the oil industry. There is a need for the oil industry to reassert its leadership in price formation and not remain a passive spectator of speculation and paper trading in oil.


“The global hydrocarbon community must address this situation through appropriate supply side responses and calm the oil markets.”


Chidambaram, who is accompanying Petroleum Minister Murli Deora as part of the Indian delegation to the summit, warned oil producers that would sufferer too if the global economy slows down or slips into recession because of high oil prices.


Global consumption increased by one million barrels a day last year, but production fell by 1.30 lakh barrels per day. "Spare capacity, across the supply chain, has dwindled considerably. This has added to risks and uncertainty. Hence the need to fast track development of oil resources," he said.


Rejecting the suggestion that rise in demand is the cause of spiraling prices, Chidambaram said that demand and supply dynamics cannot explain what has happened over the last twelve months.


"How is that oil prices were $70 a barrel in August 2007 and how is it that they have doubled when there has been no dramatic change in demand? The causes for the current pandemonium in oil prices lie elsewhere: in unregulated over-the-counter markets and futures trading in oil," he said.
