Country and its countrymen are two different entities. Ethics of a nation revolves around its security, sovereignty and futuristic well being of its citizens.The central idea of a nation's foreign policy is primarily enhancing its own strength and well being. Other nations associating or otherwise with them play only the role of tools & devices for the achievement of its goal. More often than not, therefore, it is conflicting and contradictory. In the process each nation , this way or that way, is performing both the roles to one another. All partying nations of an international alliance tries to build a maximum fit with minimum compromises.
Post world war II colonialism has almost ended all over the world. Plenty of international forums have emerged to meet the objective of regional balance,trade & commerce, strategic & military needs, science & technology and environment & climate control.
Weapons and military strength of a nation is now not for the purpose of war but also for trade. Nothing wrong to say that growth of some economies and the economic muscle acquired to certain nations are outcome of military economics only.The manure of military economics is imbalance & unrest which is first created then developed and taken to a height and then to control & manage military economics is used. It is a world wide phenomena and all nations are happy participant to it either as a victim or as a doer.
Now let me mix all the above paragraphs as cardboard pieces and a Jig Shaw Puzzle is ready. The fun is not in solving but playing with it and please read the calender of events below.
