A WORLD IN LEADERSHIP CRISIS

61

Gaza is in shambles. Ukraine is being crushed. Lebanon is under threat. Syria is under occupation. Iraq has been transformed into a proxy state. Tens of millions have been displaced in Sudan. The Red Sea is no longer safe for trade. Iran has identified and shot people identified as terrorists on Pakistani soil. Pakistan has identified and shot people as terrorists in Iranian soil. The UK anad US have attacked Houthi fighters in Yemen and they in turn are attacking ships destined for Israel.

It will be very difficult to know who among the world leaders will be able to inspire confidence and trust in order to gain sanity in the world. Power is consuming lives and property day to day without any sign of a leadership that could save humankind from the outrages which gave birth to the creation of the United Nations after the Second World War. It is now time for the people of the world to save themselves by refusing to be the cannon fodders of leaders who see no other solution other than to use instruments of mass destruction against the people under leaders they classify as their enemies.

A great mass movement for peace by the people of the world is necessary to bring their leaders to their senses. If they fail to do so, they will pay with their lives and properties for wars that do not serve the interest of the people. This is the clarion call that should be heeded by the people of this generation.
