The superpowers' mess
Violent incidents are taking place frequently in many countries including ours. This situation would not have emerged if former US president G. W. Bush and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair had not invaded Iraq on a false pretext, turning the historic and a prosperous land into ruins.
Tony Blair has said sorry for the 170 British soldiers killed in the Iraq war but remains silent about half a million or so Iraqis killed in the unjust war. The consequences of Iraq war has given rise to terrorism and unrest. In another development on March 19, 2011, United States supported by some NATO countries including UK began bombing Libya to remove Muammar al-Gaddafi. But Libyans were happy with Gaddafi as he was kind to them. This invasion also cost many innocent lives.
What a mess the superpowers have made! The whole world is paying for that.
