The hypocrites rise again

Washington, Nov.24 (ANI): Indian Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh has said that Iran must not go down the nuclear weapons path, and added that New Delhi has unambiguously and consistently said that it does not support such a step.



So,for months,if not years,the United States of America have been complaining about Iran.Before it was Iraq and once Iraq has been wiped off until it stands naked like the way it is now,the spotlight turns on Iran instead (and also not forgetting, Afghanistan).Well,what's the complain about? Iran,you are not allowed to own nuclear weapons!

Well, first,look who's talking?It must be noted here,that the very country that is giving warning,sternly at that,to Iran is the country that owns the largest nuclear arsenals in the world.Now,a much smaller country,and in this case,Iran wants to pursue its nuclear ambitions,the American government oppose the idea?

Not that I'm supporting nuclear developments, especially for the purpose of defense - nuclear warheads etc,but the country that is giving the warning should instead set an example.The beginning of this article began with the quote from the Indian prime minister. And here,yet,another hypocrite!

The Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said on Monday that India has been committed to the goal of creating a world free of nuclear weapons since it gained independence from Britain in 1947.
The reason why the world,our world today is in this mess is because of the leaders who are a bunch of hypocrites,simply throwing off empty words to win the hearts of their people back home for the sole purpose of winning the election and yet,and yet...no action. Commited to create a world free of nuclear weapons? Prove it and then the world might consider the sincerity of that statement,Mr. Prime Minister.

And it's pretty weird that the more these leaders,these world leaders are motivated to create peace and safer world,the military budget is increasing each year.
