Failure of the system or failure of leaders

By

Abdul Hannan Siwani Nadvi

In 2011, the world has witnessed the waves of agitations, revolutionary movements and demonstrations in certain parts of the world.

The waves of revolutionary movements had been enlarging and spreading their wings in Tunis, Egypt, Libya, Yemen and Syria, demonstrations and voices of reformations, on the other side, have been seen in Jordan, the US, EU countries and in India.

The reasons led the people to either agitation or revolutions lie in the systems failed in solving the issues like corruption, injustice, unemployment and inequality in jobs and in other social segments. Entire society, in Muslim or non-Muslim countries enjoys same climate. There is no distinction between Muslim or non-Muslim regimes as all have been built on some grounds cause to poverty, violence, anarchy, disturbances and mental and physical tension to everyone.

Why people got angered against their own governments and regimes to extent forced them either to leave the power, as it has been seen in Tunis and Egypt or face brutal behavior by people as seen in Libya.

Why government and regimes of the world got failure in installing a fair and transparent government despite of having power for more than 30 and 42 years?

Why such sort of disturbances seen in the US and in European countries too where the people under the banner of Occupy Wall Street assembled condemning government's policies?

Europe, the US and western countries, a hallmark and the symbol of contemporary civilization, economic empowerment and modernization of society's institutions in the world, based on freedom, reforms, human rights and shining civilizations, stand on the bad time of its history due to growing corruption, economic crises and inequality in providing countries resources to every individual irrespective of his creed, religion and identity.

The revolutions, removed three Muslim regimes, and demonstrations, continuing in certain non-Muslim countries are an announcement of the collapse of the system, ideologies and civilizations unable to solve the social diseases and economic problems, triggering unrest and price rise despite their dominance on the planet for more than hundred years.

The fall of regimes in Meddle East and in African continent and growing violent disturbances across the glob speaks loudly the severe consequences of negative effects of the system adopted by the world's powerful countries to rule on people, moreover, it is not heading toward the way of solution or success but its movements indicate the crises waiting the appropriate time.

Economic crises put European countries on the verge of collapse if it is not solved in time. US investor George Soros warned that the European crisis may lead to an economic meltdown worse than 2008.

He said “ Europe doesn't have a treasury, treasury, it has only the European Central Bank ( ECB) to deal with the ongoing crisis. The architects knew the ( economic) structure was incomplete and it is politically impossible to create such an institution in time of a crisis,.

This economic meltdown forced the US to reduce its military budget focusing on less use of forces on the ground, to keep its dominance on entire world.

This economic crisis has already been swallowed Berlusconi's government in Italy and caused unrest in Greece.

Poverty, ethnic violence, conflicts, and war like climate have left African continent in Dark. There is no hope soon for the challenges African people have been facing for decades.

Famine, in Somalia, that has swallowed thousands of lives, displacing millions of people without food, roofs and drinking water, states the failure of the existing system and the world's political institutions that always woo of reformations.

The fact is that the system adopted by world's super power countries to maintain their dominance on the planet is on way of fall without offering any solution since decades.

People gave much time to their leaders, such as their governments and regimes used much time adopting various ways of reformations, but, in fact there were no keys of solution before them since the beginning except to create tensions and shedding of bloodbath of innocents in the name of reformations and humanitarian help.

That system is being chased by the failure across the glob. World Economic crises are an alarm of bad time. Revolutions and demonstrations stress how the climate worse is. World leader’s slow response over unfolding financial, humanitarian and poverty crisis is a massive embarrassment for the people who expect their leader’s ability in overcoming the problem soon.

In the light of these ups and down, is there any hope of success the world leaders have been claiming since last decades except gifting war, famine, insecurity ethnic and religious conflicts across the glob?
