The atrocities committed by the coalition forces in Iraq remind me again and again of the fact that United Nations has become a redundant organization. A tool in the hands of the powerful nations. The coalition forces are murdering hundreds of innocent Iraqis, in broad daylight, yet the UN is a silent spectator. All they can muster up is a few words of regret here and a few of caution there. I would blame the world powers for bringing the organization to this level of pity and uselessness.
   The condition of the United Nations can be compared to any of the govt. run institutions in a country like Pakistan. Where all the people of the world keep on harping on the tune that United Nations doesn't do this it doesn't do that and that it is weak here and useless there they don't realize that it is us who make these institutions weak or strong. These institutions are there to help us but only if we accept there help. USA could have gone to uprooting Saddam with all the mandate of the world through United Nations, in an appropriate way, but Bush chose to do it otherwise. In doing so he weakened the roots of the organization. But the bully that he is he could not have done better. Similarly in the case of Palestine the consistent bullying of USA has done nothing more than uprooting the very fundamentals of the United Nations.
   Now the organization pays no more than a role of a silent spectator. Actually this is to the liking of the world powers they don't want any other power to interfere in their plan to colonize the third world. We can see USA building its colonies in Afghanistan and in Iraq and no one not even a single country from this planet of 6 billion rose in protest. I fail to recognize why we fail to stand for the truth.
   Similar is the case with OIC which many like to pronounce oh I C. This Muslim platform has lost all its value(not that it had any in the first place). All because it is not used by its member states effectively. If it were used more and more it could become a fore runner to a dream like united Muslim world on the pattern of united Europe through European Union.
   If these designs are not stopped and organizations with stronger and more forceful mandate are not created I fear a long standing chaos in the world politics for the times to come. And this might culminate into another world war. we all know that if so happens humans will be washed away from the face of this planet. This is a dangerous game and man must, at all costs, refrain from playing it.

Learning Arduino 1

This holiday season I decided to gift myself some basic electrical components in the form of a Arduino UNO set from Elegoo. I have always had a desire to tinker with electronics and in gifting myself this basic set I am now starting on a journey to quench my inner electrical workman's thirst. I hope to develop this hobby as I move forward and will, from time to time, post about it here on the blog. As the journey moves forward I am sure to run into trouble and issues. But as they say you can not master anything without first being a fool at it, so I have decided to remain a fool at it until I am a little good at it. To start with, I do possess some elementary knowledge in electronics and electronic circuits. I intend to further my knowledge using the world wide web and following some very useful video channels on youtube. I will first start with some very basic projects to familiarize myself with Arduino and basic electronic circuits and techniques such as soldering. Then graduall...

XBOX ONE controller

I have been using the new xbox for many days now. The most important part of the console is obviously it's controller as this is the part we interact with most. In comparison to the xbox 360 controller the build quality of this controller seems slightly compromised. There is little counter weight in the wings of this controller and therefore it does not feel quite as sturdy in hand as the old one. However the shape has been elongated a bit and this actually probably compensates for the weight issue. All the buttons are within reach of my fingers which is good. One thing I have liked about the xbox controller is the snug fit in my hands. This is unlike sony's six axis controller. Those are obviously made for smaller hands. The sony controllers are much sturdier as I have learnt over the years I have had the play station. They took a lot of beating but came out winning. I don't think I expect same quality from the xbox controllers.  Also I have been getting a taste of Microso...

Tax skirting by hospital systems?

The issue of avoiding federal taxes is in the news these days with Apple being in the spotlight.  Most of the times big companies avoid paying US taxes by skirting their profits to tax havens.  Healthcare giants can do the same theoretically.  Imagine if there were a health care giant that opens up shop in tax haven islands and then uses the same technique that commercial entities use to skirt their profits out of the country, thereby avoiding taxes.  This is very much possible.  The of shore clinics can be potentially used to complicate the tax return filing system here in US.  I could never understand why a completely US hospital system would like to open up a clinic in Bahamas.  These clinics are portrayed as the global reach of the entity but who do they actually serve.  We never hear about them in press or public.  These clinics are apparently manned by some doctors we never hear about.  How does this system work?  I really do...
